I am always a big fan of Soup Spoon when I need something light yet filling for my meal.
I loved their soups especiall clam chowder and tokyo chicken stew. Each soup is filled with chunky pieces of clam or chicken with vegetables and/ or potatoes. Each soup will come with their specially made bread. It can be upgraded into a full meal with either half a wrap or sandwich plus a ice tea.
Their pot pie is also very good. The crust is crispy yet tasty when blended with the soup. It comes with a small serving of salad and ice tea.
They got ready packed soups to bring home reheat and eat in the comfort of your own home.
They got a rewards card that you will get a stamp for every $5 spend and once completed, you can redeem a drink and a bowl of grande soup of your choice. Definitely worth every cent!
Minds Cafe is a great place to meet up with frens at the same time to eat and play boardgames as well.
The staff are friendly. There are tons of games to choose from, fromt he brainles games to the more intellgent games.
However sometimes to go there during peak hours, the place might get a bit too noisy to hold a normal conversation with friends. At times there will be stranger approaching you as they are to do some forfeit as they had lost their game or something like that.
One of the places that I would choose to go and hang out with my friends and to spend a great time there.
Remember to make reservation before going down to avoid disappointment. Hee....
Every time I walked past the stall, I will definitely stop and buy a sardine puff or a crispy yam puff or BOTH! Haa..... Especially when both of them are freshly fried from the fryer.
The crust is flaky yet crispy, not oily at well. The fillings inside are jz right, for the sardine, not too hot or spicy, for the yam, not to sweet.
I never really like to go concerts at the Max Pavilion for the following reasons:
1. The location. Jz damned ulu and far.
2. Transportation. The cab going out from there have surcharge, the MRT ended its run around the same time the concerts ended, and bus stops are a long way as well.
3. The seating arrangements are bad as they are on the flat ground. The tired seats are all the way back at the concert hall.
4. The sound system. Not really good for the past few concerts I had been too. A lot of interferences for the sound systems. Sometimes, music too loud and cannot heard the singer sing etc.
5. There is usually a large crowd as there are exhibitions, church servcies etc. This will lead to not enough parking lots etc.
The only reason y I go there for concerts cos the singers I like decided to go there to hold their concerts. Sigh... Give me indoor stadium anytime!
I decided to go there when I came upon an article about this place in a magazine. Since I had not tasted how black pork tasted, so go and give it a try.
The restaurant is among the many other japanese restaurants in the Central. Managed to locate the place easily.
The setting of the restaurant is a mixed of tradition and modern jap. We was seated near to the window with a view of clarke quay and Singapore River.
After looking through the menu, decided for starters, a deep fried sweet potato and for main, Black Pig Loin Katsu set and a Seafood Katsu Set.
The sweet potato was good and not oily as it is deep fried. Loved it!
For the main dish, the seafood set is generous with the tempura prawns, if not a normal seafood set in other jap restaurants. For the Black Pig Loin Katsu set, the black pig loin is tender and simply melts in my mouth. Even my friend who is not a pork lover, likes the taste of it!
Each set comes with free flow of cabbage and rice. The staff will ask you if you you need a refill.
They still got a lot of dishes with black pig pork so can give it a try! The service there is also quite good as well.
Pls note that the price might be a bit on the higher side as the pork are imported by air daily to ensure its freshness.
Uno Beef House, one of the best place for cheap and good steak!
Was introduced by a colleague and was hooked onto it. Be prepared to wait up for an hour for the food to arrive pipping hot in front of you! Need to have patience for good food, that is how popular is that place.
The coffeeshop is not easily accessible yet able to have crowd, so this show the food is really good there!
I recommend the sirloin steak ($10) which comes with a special deep fried mash potato ball. Together with its mushroom sauce, it is almost prefect.
Why almost? Well I ordered medium rare, even though, it came in the right tone, outside cooked and inside raw. I was slightly disapointed that the steak did not ooze out any blood when I sliced it. A bit too dry for my liking.
The coleslaw and the chicken wings are also worth a try. Heard that they added in some durian in the coleslaw, I could not taste it out though.
The owner of the place is friendly and is open to all comments.
GV Vivocity expecially GV Max is my top choice when going to the movies.
Reasons being:
1. Loved the large leg space. Dun have the feeling of being cramped any more.
2. Large screen. Jz loved it! Haa...
3. Great sound system.
4. The layout of the cinema. Spacious and wide! Do not have the feeling of like being in a very cramped place.
5. Many ticket counters and snack counters as well.
The only thing I dun like is the exit point of the cinemas, tend to led out all the way out of vivocity and need to make a loop to go back to the shopping centre again.
After a whole day without food, we went to Sakura for buffet dinner. Each pax $28 7%gst on weekends and $26 7%gst on weekdays. Price wise, its considered one of the cheapest buffet around. Serving quite a wide spread of Japanese food (sushi, sashimi, tempura, tepanyaki etc), Dim Sum, Chinese cooked food and yummy cakes.
We've been there many times for their high-tea buffet which consists of just sushi and sashimi. This was our first for their dinner. And we were satisfied with the entire experience. The food is good (not very good), taste wise still alright (after eating that much, the taste just blended) and the choices were alright for the price.
Can take a peep at what they serve in the photos I've uploaded. These are just 1/3 of what they have there.
Was at Millenia Walk with two girlfriends and I wanted to try out Abof, but the price was alittle high for a casual dinner. So we went to Bab Noodle. Although the name suggested that they serves noodle, but I saw my rice on the menu. To change the rice to noodles is an additional $2. Shouldn't they call it Bab Rice then?
Anyway, the 3 of us ordered 2 starters to share and a main each with iced lychee tea for all of us. There were 3 lady staff at work. And as it was late already, the place was rather empty. We were given all the attention we needed. So this was great. Except for my missing straw in my drink, and the fallen spoon from my table. Other than that, the service was great.
Now the food... the starters - Pidan with cold tofu and Seafood tofu were great! Love the taste. As for the main, I was contemplating between the Sukiyaki Beef Set and the Stew Beef with Karrage Chicken Set. I asked the lady who took our order which she recommends, and Sukiyaki was her choice. So I gave that a try. The serving was rather big for me. I was too full only half way through the set. But then the main problem came when I reached home couple of hours later... yap... had a "blasting" time in the loo... perhaps its the beef. As there were some that I thought looked weird. Or again, might be due to the combo of food I had for dinner. Lucky for me, I feel better now after the blasting.
Total spent by the 3 of us was $58.40.
For the service and attention, I give 2 stars and for the value-for-money set meals I'm giving another. Not going to rate the food as my experience was probably uncalled for.
Secrets at Eleven is a relaxing and very nice place to get your pretty nails. Located on the second level (above Happy Daze). The decor is simple and welcoming. I had my meni done at their balcony. Imagine, relaxing on a big arm chair, with open view of the happenings below me and the friendliest manicurist. 2 other friends can sit next to you by the balcony and together have your nails done up, drink a cup of nice warm tea and catch-up with the latest happenings in life.
The manicurists know their products very well and their service and skill is good. When come to choosing colors for the nails, they'll try on every color you want to see on each of your nails so that you can see exactly how it looks like on your hands. (I ended up with 10 different color on my fingers!) This is great cos you'll not regret only after all the nails were painted. They wouldn't rush you and they'll be more than glad to try on as many colors as you want so that you're happy with the decision.
For just $23 for a classic mani and $33 for a classic pedi, Secrets at Eleven is the place to go with your girlfriends!
