The Michelin Guide has long been regarded as the world’s foremost authority of culinary merit. To win a Michelin one-star is a cause for celebration and to win a Michelin three-star is next to impossible. So far I have already reviewed Kok Sen, New Ubin Seafood (Hillview), Ash & Elm, Master Tang Wontan Mee, Hill […]
Singapore was and still is predominately a Chinese country. Chinese stand for more than a third of Singapore’s population.

I stumbled upon an article written about Master Tang (鄧師傅鳳城麺家) and this Michelin one-starred stall was opened by a retired Crystal Jade chef, who has worked there for 17 years. The original stall is located at Sixth Avenue, but it relocated to Bukit Batok East Avenue 5 when the lease was up. There is a […]
There are numerous Chinese restaurants in Singapore but there are not many Chinese restaurants that specialize in Hokkien and Sichuan dishes. The Good Trio is one such restaurant with two outlets in JCube and Thomson Plaza. I can’t comment on the authenticity of the Hokkien dishes but my mother who is a Hokkien, loves their […]

I see a long queue outside this restaurant at the back of Raffles City Shopping Centre B1 every day during lunch hour and I was curious what is so special about this restaurant. One day, my curiosity got the better of me and a look at the menu reveals that this is a new dim […]
I was accompanying my friend who was running an errand in Joo Chiat and we were looking for a place to have lunch. Da Dong Prawn Noodles big red signboard caught our attention and the words “since 1966” which means that this stall has over 40 years of history. A search on Google revealed that […]
My mother and I decided to have an impromptu movie date one day. I made my way to VivoCity after work and since it was still an hour before the movie starts, I decided to get some dinner. I found this new Taiwanese noodle restaurant called LeNu which can literally be translated into “Happy Cow”. […]
I stumbled upon Shi Li Fang when I was window-shopping in JCube one day. The snaking long queue quipped my curiosity and I went to investigate what everyone was queuing for. It turned out to be a Taiwan steamboat restaurant. I returned a few weeks later with a girlfriend and I got my first taste […]
