Kay Lee at Suntec: Kinda Pathetic Portions and Not As Fantastic as the Original

Discovered a new mall, 100 AM which I’ll blog about soon, as well as another chicken Ramen place that satisfies us immensely. My only issue is that it was a bit salty. Between this and the one at Plaza Singapura’s … Continue reading

Fully Satisfied My Peking Duck Craving at Asia Grand Restaurant (But Felt Guilty too)
The service at Asia Grand Restaurant is a lot more polite than other Chinese restaurants we’ve been to. Although I wasn’t as impressed with the Peking duck or the fresh fish this time considering the cost was S$180. The tofu … Continue reading

Two Visits to Marmalade Pantry at ION (With My Cousin, & By Myself)
I had no interest to try out Marmalade Pantry, although I’ve strolled pass this cafe many a time. It just seemed so open, crowded and not so cosy, and I thought the pricing must be steep. But since my cousin … Continue reading

A Second Visit to Verandah for Lunch
I think the wait staff standing around is a waste. They should do table service and then I would like the place a whole lot more. Considering what they charge for upscale, but not as good hawker food, they really … Continue reading

American Meal with lots of Melted Cheese: Roadhouse at 13 Dempsey Road
I have to admit we were a bit disappointed by the meal at Roadhouse. Not that it was bad or anything, just that we expected it to be as good as what you get in the US. I guess that … Continue reading

Mustard (Flavours of Bengal and Punjab)
It’s embarrassing sometimes when I don’t know exactly where the various states in India are located. That’s why I was excited to see a map and I was surprised to see that Bengal is just next to Bangladesh. I had … Continue reading

Ikea Restaurant: I Still Love You in Spite of the Eggshells
I was late for the breakfast and unfortunately picked the last french toast set that was there. Not surprising that it was cold, but the worst part was biting into eggshells and having a hard time retrieving the pieces. Aw … Continue reading
