A spanking new Caribbean influenced restaurant and rum-centric bar, cleverly named the BUMBO RUM CLUB is one of the most happening spot to hang with your friends. We loved the swanky tapas and hearty mains on the menu and of course the rum laced cocktails that many raved about. The Club boasted a whopping collection of 76 rums from more than 20 countries, 7 home made and 25 exquisite rum cocktails.
A calmly decorated shop house filled with raw wooden furnitures and images of palm trees made us imagine we were parked by the back alley along a sandy beach. Yes... the place was filling up with people in casual weekend maxi dresses and linen shirts men decked in straw hats. A latino DJ mix fuses the playful chit-chatting into relaxing noise that instantly neutralized my work stress.
I sat at this corner table on a classic Acapulco Chair, watching happy patrons walking by holding rum cocktails and some breaking into salsa dancing. I simply loved the atmosphere and the comfy interior decoration of the place that housed a DJ Corner a small bar, dining tables of a proper height for meals, a corridor for salsa dancing and little corner tables for those who love to laze around like me.
The menu was filled with choices of appetizers, mouth watering tapas and premium steak for mains. I was adamant about trying out the tapas because of its hard to pronounce names and so we tried out the tapas and of course rum cocktails.
Accras bacalao, a cod fish beignet - is one of my favourites as its easy to eat and I love the bits of herbs and spices within this deep fried ball of fish and pastry.
Prawn Ceviches - boasted succulent medium sized prawns that were juicy and refreshing.
Sea Bass Ceviche - a creamy spoon of fresh sweet fish in creamy savoury sauce.
Churros with smooth chocolate dip - is my forever lover... I simply loved this combination and the churros was light and crispy while the chocolate dip smooth and well balanced sweet and bitter...
I can't help but look through the list of promos available and well to highlight to all my friends, the Happy Hour is of a super good deal of $5 - $9 for various decadent alcoholic drinks and my favourite night would be wednesdays where Ladies gets a free flow of Mojito.
To my salsa loving friends, do pop by on thursdays for wine, dine and SALSA.... :) Thinking about these made me excited and i'm sure to pop by more often... LOVING the mood, atmosphere and of course the super friendly and attentive staffs....

We engaged Zikir from Black Cat Photography for one of our events and he did a fabulous job being the official photographer for the event, not only in a short notice did he agree to help us, he produced an entire album of many great shots with some that brought smiles to our faces.
It was a last minute notification and friendly Zikir gladly agreed to help us even though he could barely make it on time due to other commitments yet he managed to arrive just in time to capture the first performances. He settled quickly as he arrived and went immediately to snapping the dancers.
Being experienced in photography and great skills, Zikir managed to compile an album of not only the dance performances but also great many pictures of the event venue and of course the happy crowd. Charming as he is, he managed to coax some into posing for him, leaving us great clear memories in pretty colours.
We received the professionally edited pictures just 2 days after the event with many that were above our expectations and we are very appreciative of his friendly, quick and professional services.
We look forward to work with him again as he is fast, friendly and reliable, most importantly, he takes great shots. Understanding that his forte is in bridal and outdoor shoots, I am convinced that he is as good at clubbing and nightspot party events.

If you are looking for Korean BBQ for a good spread and affordable value, this is the place to go. Lunch for Adults is at S$20 Nett and well Dinner is at S$30 Nett, but be sure to check out their facebook page to make sure the pricing still stands.
This location used to be a sushi place with sushi belts and have since been covered up and redecorated with pretty chandeliers. The place is pretty nice but like every BBQ joints, be prepared to smell like burnt food and well the grease is simply everywhere.
It was almost empty as we were pretty late and its a sunday eve, so most people would have been nursing their monday blues by now and the restaurant was almost empty except a table of 4 near the raw food counter and we were shown a seat next to them... Service was mulish as they are preparing to close and food was running out at the buffet table. While we asked for a lettuce (I mean who to eat Korean BBQ without lettuce), it arrived like 15 mins later and was just dumped onto the buffet bar where the empty container lies. So we laterally got to fight with the other table for these vegs. Food was generally okay, chicken was well marinated and gained much of my delight, while theres nothing much left at the cooked food section, the korean rice cakes were pretty nice... except that i had nothing else.
There was a good spread of various meats, chicken, beef, pork collars and are pretty standard, while the veg section have got the standard straw-mushrooms and some other stuffs... rice was pretty well-cooked...
My overall experience is that its cheap and pretty nice if you are there to gorge yourself with all the Barbeque. Food quality is pretty average and freshness is pretty good. Service was not good and you do get signs like... NO WASTAGE!!! WE CHARGE YOU FOR EVERY 100Grams YOU WASTE... HERE WE HAVE A WEIGHING MACHINE at the buffet bar to REMIND YOU.... WE CHARGE YOU!!!
And theres this equally funny post that says... ICE CREAM here... 2nd CUP onwards is CHARGEABLE.... *hey am i having a buffet?* anyway.... i didn't waste no food and didn't even have any of the ice-creams.
Like I say.. its super value for money and food choice and freshness is pretty good... just gorge yourself silly and forget about service or any restaurant comfort level... Get Done and Get Moving and DON'T YOU GO FOR THAT SECOND CUP OF ICE-CREAM.....
*i was told.... NO PHOTO-TAKING, so i took what i can... leave it to your imaginative minds.. or at least pop by and gorge yourself silly*

A great place to dine with friends for authentic Teo Chew Cuisines, the food was exceptionally good and not to mention the beautiful oldish deco...
We loved many dishes, especially the specially hand made rice dumplings that kinda reminded us of my grandmother. She used to make many of these ingredient stuffed dumplings and tied tightly with strips of rafia strings. This dumpling recipe was also passed down from one of the owner's grandma and well the ingredients were fresh and well loaded into each dumpling.
Besides the dumplings, be sure to try out other teochew fares like the teochew porridge with preserved vegs and other savoury sides, good for a light lunch, while not forgetting the super yummy yam cakes and bo bo cha cha for a sweet ending.
The place is nice, warm and welcoming, staffs are friendly and have plenty of seats. The food was as good as home made and well, reminded me of my childhood... Price was reasonable and they do catering as well, so if you need a slice of the teochew culture in your party, you know who to call for a deliciously healthy affair.

Looking for authentic thai food, then look no further, NANA Thai at Singapore's "Little Thailand" Golden Mile Complex serves up one of the best Thai Cuisines in Singapore.
The Menu was hefty to digest as I spotted, raw meat salads, raw prawn salads and some dishes I can't even pronounce, good thing the staff could speak chinese and while we could order our comfort food such as Green Curry, Tom Yum, Mookata (Thai Steamboat), we didn't do so, hoping to try some of their close to home dining cultures.
We ordered a sticky rice which goes particularly well with the mango salad which I topped loads of crushed peanuts. The vinegar in the salad kinda soften the sticky rice, made the pair extremely easy to eat and must I say.. DELICIOUS and APPETIZING.
We also ordered the grilled pork which looked hard, dark and came with a special chilli/soya sauce sauce which enhanced the entire taste. I must admit it was hard to chew yet the longer you chew, the taste seemed to come out. It was an interesting dish.
The basil minced pork was good, not too spicy yet savoury and goes well with rice and lastly the grilled chicken was a little dry, but i suppose made perfectly well as almost everybody was having this chicken. I also love the sweet thai chilli sauce that came with the grill chicken, it somehow tasted different from the thai chilli bottle we purchased at home, i suspect vinegar was added to it...
The entire experience was pleasant, though we walked out smelling of food, yet the price is reasonable, portion good and plenty of seats. The place is not classy nor even clean as the building is rather old, yet we could see the stall owners put in effort to keep it as hygienic as possible. Nice experience and I kinda felt i was in thailand for a little while... Totally enjoyed and will return... plenty of other stuffs to try :)

We pop by this outlet on the higher floor of Orchard Central for a nice BBQ dinner on a cool friday evening. Good thing we had a booking, otherwise we would have to queue and mind you the queue was not short. A choice of indoor and outdoor seating and we've decided on indoor which is proven later a rather lousy decision.
Outdoor was pretty good for BBQ as its not as oily, smoky and you won't smell like grilled chicken when you are off to your next nightsport. The view was nice and place was decorated pretty cosy, but we sat inside.
Table given to us was too small and rather tight while the BBQ Plate take up about 1/3 of the table, we are left with meagre spaces and since its a booth seat, there was no place to hide as the oil splatters while the juicy meat sizzler.
The selection of raw meat was good, veg pretty fresh and the seasoning of the meat was quite yummy. I tried some of their potato salad and found it a little stale with the cream going a little sour. Mushrooms was almost always out of stock and we had to make do with other things which kind of got on my nerve.
I also tried a couple of their ready cooked selections and the chicken wings is overated... its only averagely yummy and the other stuffs like kim chi pancakes and fish cakes are average.
I must say, this is a convenient location with good ambience (if you seat outside) and to eat Korean BBQ on a windy evening is pretty nice.
Service is only acceptable as we booked for a group of 6 and only 5 came yet we got cramped into a 4 person booth seat and everybody was unhappy with the space and not allowed to change. We are just disappointed but will return with smaller groups and outdoor seats...
Oh yar dining indoor is generally oily and dodgy. The seats were oily, floor oily and rather stuffy and we couldn't get out.... *frustration*
Lunch: S$14.90 (Mon to Fri), S$24.90 (Sat, Sun, Eve of PH, & PH).
Dinner: S$24.90 (Mon to Thu), S$26.90 (Sat, Sun, Eve of PH, & PH).

Loving Cedele to the max because of the healthy ingredient used, lovely bakes and great cake selections. If you are looking for a healthy meal, this is one of the most interesting place with a great selection on the menu and hearty breads, cakes and muffins at a very reasonable price for the high quality ingredients used.
Cakes: I love this the most especially the chocolate banana with oat cake. Its a heavy cake yet i know it is made with the best ingredients and is the kindest of all the chocolate banana cakes from elsewhere... It is creamy yet chocolate is thick and of the right sweetness. Cake is spongy and moist while banana add on to the aromatic flavor. The combination is heavenly. Be sure to try the carrot and walnut cake too.
Breads: My favourite, the orange swirl is a WOW-LER.... I mean i couldn't stop wow-ing... its heavy and is available in a loaf yet they could slice it for me. It moist and spongy with loads of healthy orange jam inside with a slight whiff of cinnamon, this combination is exceptionally good and i just couldn't stop munching on it. Its good to consume within the day because when kept till the next day, the bread grew a little hard, which also means almost no preservatives were used i guess...
Beverages: Have you checked out the beverage section? Besides the healthy, organic selection of teas and freshly brewed coffee, they serve also hearty fruit juices and with a choice of including CHIA seeds.. while... i mean CHIA SEEDS are like super Omega Perkers... good stuffs
Last I would love to mention the soup, they have a selection of about 2-4 to choose from and my favourite, the clam chowder which is chunky and love to add loads of pepper to it.
The review is getting too long and well the mains on the menu is also fabulous... I better leave some words for other outlets... I'm CEDELE's Biggest Fan :)
5 Stars for the great food, great service, super good ingredients and nice locations, though its always difficult to find seats. Place is kept pretty clean and love the comprehensive healthy thoughts put into creating the menu.. really a life saver...

Have you gone to the VivoCity golden village? nothing much has changed through the years but the ticketing level seemed to shrink in size. The cinemas remained comfy, air-conditioning (less chilly) felt just right and the seats are still clean though the facilities should have aged quite a bit. Was there for a movie but with the various new theatres coming up, Golden Village Vivocity, once being the most sought after cinema venues have not lost its appeal with me. The popcorns are not as yummy as the ones at Shaw and well, Digital and Sound is not as techy as that of Cathay's new venues but it still brings back the old memories.Love the idea of a second level popcorn counters where you can easily purchase snacks and drinks while halfway through the movie. Well its been like 5 years since we last reviewed on this location and I must say... its still a very good location for movies and afterwards you can grab some good food at the menu restaurants downstairs and perhaps a little shop (and i can hear the boys exclaim "OMG!!!")

The Beacon, indeed a great place to chill and unwind... The band was particularly good and happy hours are one for one housepours and draft beers. Seats were pretty tight however I spotted some really interesting corners for you to hide with your bunch of friends.
Mostly singing pop and rock hits with a lovely sound system. Prices were pretty reasonable and love the oyster deal where you can get $5 oysters with every beer ordered...
Service was pretty good, quick and efficient while it does get crowded later in the evening, so be sure to grab a seat before 7:30pm and preferably one that is not too near the band it could be noisy.. well, who chit chat when the band plays... oh i forgot... my band of girls do.... Hm.... no wonder we always end up with a sore throat everytime we go partying...i always thought it was the chicken wings.....

Nice place with great ambiance and service. Though the previous dining style is much preferred due to the variety of dishes we can choose from, this style of a bistro is a good change as now we have more service and attention. Well attention was not easy to grab as this location is mostly crowded even on weekday eves, however getting a seat is not difficult as the restaurant is spacious with a good layout with little wasted space.
The menu was a little sad looking as compared for the reputation Marche has built through the years with my favorite Rosti nowhere to be found however, the Pork Knuckles and many infamous dishes were maintained. So we look through the huge one page menu and decided upon a few yummy dishes.
1) We had lemonade for drinks as home-made lemonade seemed like a good opener for all the oily food we are to consume next. Lemonade was of a good citrus mix and was proven to be a good choice.
2) Bacon with Figs in a honey mustard sauce was yummy but in a small portion. We practically popped them into our mouths in one go and it disappeared. This dish was addictive as the savory bacon skwered with the sweetish red dates was a heavenly combination, not forgetting the a good dose of the honey mustard sauce.. oh well, it was a generous bowl of more honey than mustard combi... as from this point onwards, everything goes into this dip.
3) The pizza was rather regular... sauce and hand-rolled base has no "WoW" effect, while the toppings were just not exciting. Its comfort food for us and well the portion was good... they managed to slice it into 10 pieces of squarish looking sizes that are easy to handle.
4) Roast Pork was yummy... came in a bed of mash and some greens drizzled with balsamic vinegar. The crispy skin crackles underneath my teeth and the soft meat tempted me not to stop. It was pretty good i must say.
Well dessert looks interesting and pancakes I will not fail to try them out the next time round... Love the ambiance and well price was pretty average for the environment and the location. Portion was okay for mains but tiny for appetizer... Would love a better selection of beer and wines.
