Teadot @ west gate

Brunch time! 

Loved the blender drink - green tea with red dates. It's so yummy!! Oh, I ordered a less syrup version since I no longer have super sweet tooth. 

The food are decent with a resonable pricing. 

Will definitely visit it again. 

Bella pizza

Keen to have some great pizza? 

Head out to bella pizza @ Robertson Quay. 

Beautiful and yummy pizza. 

 Spinach salad. It's good too but why is green so expensive in singapore ??  

How to please me? 

Just serve me a good meal. Simple, right? 

And Sir always say I will elope with a Spanish chef if I found one. Haha...

Em by the bay

Em by the bay is located by the singapore river and next to Gallery Hotel. 

It's alfresco concept which I loved.

Thump up for the environment!! 

Food: Horrible !! And terrible!!!  

Egg Royale: COLD egg benedict with soggy muffin. 

How long was this in the kitchen before served ? 

Em breakfast: Everything on this plate is cold. Make us wonder if they have scoop from the hotel breakfast buffet. 

What is worse than cold chewy "toast"?

The White Rabbit

I have read a number of fave reviews about the white rabbit.. 

So here I am - to try the lunch menu ($32-38++).

The olive bread is yum yum.. 

Wish we know how to bake this at home.

Starter: foie gras 

Delicious !!! 

Main: Sea bass 

Unfortunately, the fish is over cooked.

The ambience (used to be an old church) is cosy.. This place is worth a visit. 

Sushi Tei

This is one of my favourite jap chain restaurant. 

Food are usually fresh but it's slightly pricey. 

Trying out their new dish - squid ink spaghetti. 

They have yet to disappoint me so far. GOOD ! 

Riders cafe @ bukit timah

I cannot recall when was the last time that we visited... 

Upon arrival, the sweet smell of nature and horse shit greeted us.

Haha... It actually bring back some memories. Nice !!! 

We were supposed to be here for desert only - the death of chocolate cake.

But I ended up ordering the Greek Pasta Salad as well. I highly recommend this as its pretty yummy. 

On the other hand, the chocolate cake was a little disappointment. 

It's just taste different as the frosting is too hard. And every bite is too dense. 

I rather opt for Au Chocolat. 

Greek pasta salad - $16

Death by chocolate - $13

Sea salt @ turf club

Pork knuckle for $24. 

The skin was extremely crispy but had a burnt taste. 

Try the pulled pork sandwich as it has a stronger favour. 

Choupinette ... It's a YES

I simply love brunch.... Where I can have breakfast and lunch at one go ;-) 

Choupinette is a small cosy French cafe, located along bukit timah. 

Note: closed on Monday. 

Inside the cafe: bread, anyone ? 

Egg Royale set: Toast is crispy, the whole combination is awesome. 

I will go back for more. 

Comes with juice and hot drink.

Chouchou's set: toast with chicken. 

Comes with drink and desert.

Creme brûlée: not too sweet. I like ...

Maxwell market fish porridge

Highly recommended !!! 

Porridge is cook to perfection. 

Singapore flyer street food corner

Usually we associate bad food in touristy place but this "food court" at Singapore flyer is surprising pleasant. But it costs us $51.50! Have your ever spent more than 10 buck for hawker food?? 

Here we are: 

Satay Bee Hoon: 

Small portion but very yummy.

The presentation does not give it much justice... But once you start eating, you will love it. 

La La: too sweet and starchy. 

NEXT....

BBQ stingray: This beats the ones at east coast hawker centre. 

Good !

Oyster omelette: Generous serving of oyster. Good for sharing as it might be too much to have it alone.

Ice ball: traditional desert

No way we going to skip this. 

SWEET!!!! 

Sweet treats for takeaway: worth $13!!!  (Probably just $3 many years back)

We must be crazy to buy these lots but it brings back the childhood memories. 

These days, Most kids are unlikely to appreciate these. 

Super surprise :D

Haven't seen the ladies for the longest time and finally, we manage to meet up over lunch and tea break. 

We had a decent lunch at "la villa" (Italian restaurant).

Wonderful food and it's my first time trying "angel hair" pasta. 

I like it as it is like thicker version of beehoon. Hehee. 

Here's the yummy dishes:

My birthday just passed but the ladies still got me a wonderful present - A pandora bracelet!!!

I am like a kid who received a candy and will love to yell out in joy. 

Of course I didn't as we are in a public place.. Need to watch my behaviour. 

Thank you ladies.. I love you all... Muack. 

Haha :) 

Awfully chocolate

How sinful can I get :p

Good 6 layers of chocolate cake and an excellent scoop of ice cream. 

Little part 1 cafe

Little part 1 is a cosy cafe located at a hidden corner of Thomson road.
("Hidden" by my definition as it is located behind the main road and within private homes cluster).

The cafe environment is really cosy and homely.
Be it Order a coffee and read a book or,
Dinning with friends.. this is a suitable place.

We ordered:
1. Buffalo wings
Not quite our tasting as chicken didn't taste fresh and the vinegar was relatively strong.
2. Stewed beefs with bread and organic salad.
This dish is yummy and portion is enough for 2 pax.
According to the menu, this is only available during weekend.

Au Jardin @ Botanic Garden

Officially, I will be returning to work on Monday therefore we head out for a nice lunch today (don't know when the next one will be).
I have heard good reviews about Au Jardin so here we are.
For weekday lunch,  there are 2 menus -1. Traditional set @45++; 2. Premium set @65++.
We picked the latter.

We were seated by the balcony which is awesome and gives us lots of privacy (we are the only couple in it).

Hot breads were served immediately after ordering.  Yummy...

I enjoyed most of the stuffs except for his main course - the seafood risotto is kind of fishy tasting. After, he suffered from indigestion. 

Total damage: 80 per pax
Will I go back again? Maybe... I had better French food elsewhere at a slightly lower price but Au Jardin ambience is super.

Favourite cafe - Casa Verde

One of our favourite hangouts - Casa Verda @ Botanic Garden.
You probably noticed that I am visiting the garden often these few weeks, it is because it's next to the clinic where I have my medical reviews.

Anyway, we love Casa Verde's food as it is simply good, nice and affordable.
Also, it is surrounded by the green which is my favourite place to relax

This time, we are trying new items on the menu- mushroom burger and warm chicken salad. 

Both are delicious... Importantly, I am extremely satisfied with the meal, especially after a month of plain food.
Oh, do try out the pizza too... it's awesome!

Juicy (= fat?) burger.
It is so yummy that I wish to have another one NOW. 

Tasty chicken salad... 

    

Now, while we are enjoying out meal; Racer too... is enjoying his chicken chewy stick!

Foods for thoughts - thumb down

This eatery is located at the botanic garden, next to main gate.

Ambience looks pretty cool but the food was bad. 

The burger was one of the worst we had. And for the price, it wasn't worth it. 

Usually burger comes with fries but not here. 

As for the peso linguine ... Too creamy for most people liking. 

Wouldn't visit again :(
