Dian Xiao Er at VivoCity
Pretty good meal as we haven’t had roast herbal duck in a while. The chilli always makes any meal better and I had 2 types so was very happy.

Best Spicy Handmade Noodles
Whenever we get a craving for handmade noodles, Lenu has the consistency that doesn’t disappoint. They didn’t charge for hot water which is great. I like the water almost boiling hot, cos it cools down very fast with the air … Continue reading

Paradise Dynasty at ION
I continue with my Sichuan handmade noodle (dan dan mian) obsession. The xiao long bao here is good too and I think the ION branch as the best ambience. They gave us a huge booth seat.

My second time at 100AM mall. As you can see, I was pretty enthralled by the Imperial Dragon Bakery Cafe logo. It reminds me of the traditional depiction you see in Chinese paper cuttings. I know it’s excessive – more … Continue reading
