My Little Spanish Place

My Little Spanish Place has the nicest ambience, but to be completely honest, I found the paella at Serenity at VivoCity slightly tastier and the churros at the tapas place at Chijmes also a tad better. To be fair though, … Continue reading

When I first heard the name Open Door Policy my first thought was – it was too hot for Al Fresco. But no, it was refreshingly cool when we entered the restaurant and no doors left open, thank goodness. There … Continue reading

Itacho Sushi x Jika Udon at JCube

Had lunch at Itacho. It’s a bit confusing as it seems to be two brands in one? The restaurant at JCube seems to be the only branch that has this dual concept. It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t great either. … Continue reading

Buono: Italian Restaurant where I had the Best Salad Ever

Buono has a real Italian owner. I assume he was the owner because he entered the restaurant and greeted everyone warmly. I figured he must be Salvatore Buono. The restaurant’s decor is unique with playing cards stuck to the ceiling. … Continue reading

112 Katong Mall: Food, Yummy Spicy Noodles at Xiao La Jiao & CNY Decorations

The Moluccas Room at Marina Bay Sands: Indonesian Fusion Food

American Food at Tony Roma’s

Freshness Burger at The Central Mall

A nice place to relax when Starbucks is bursting at the seams. I actually prefer this place to Starbucks – it’s emptier and cosier. I hope they still remain in business though, as the one at Nex has closed, probably … Continue reading
