foodie paradise writes: I know since the start of the year, I haven’t been updating my blog much.  I think the main reason is because I’m getting tired of food blogging.  To blog about food often means that I have to attempt to remember how my food taste like, somewhat critique it, and at the same time, keep myself somewhat updated about the latest food places around town. But the truth is, I’m never very particular about my food.  I started this blog for fun and for the past three years, it was the high readership that kept me blogging.  And when blogging begins to feel like work rather than a hobby, I think it’s time for me to move on and perhaps start ... read more

foodie paradise writes: ABC Brickworks Food Centre 6 Jalan Bukit Merah Ratings: Delicious After exploring the Southern Ridges, I went to the nearby ABC Brickworks Food Centre for my dinner. It’s my first time at ABC Brickworks Food Centre and I totally love the food there! Yuan Yuan Claypot Rice (#01-138) Operating Hours: 5pm - 11.30pm (Closed on Wed) Yuan Yuan Claypot Rice is probably the most famous stall that I tried at ABC Brickworks Food Centre that day. The number of recommendations pasted at the stall front definitely attest that! The claypot rice comes in 2-pax at $10, or 3-pax for $15. I ordered for 2-pax. The serving for 2-pax was ... read more

foodie paradise writes: The Southern Ridges is a 9km path that connects Mount Faber Park, Telok Blangah Hill Park, and Kent Ridge Park before ending at West Coast Park. I was there some weekends back and I love the lush greenery and the unique bridges that linked one park to the other! It’s definitely a relaxing place to go if you want to escape from the concrete jungle and enjoy a nice stroll among the lush greenery. read more

foodie paradise writes: habuya Shabu Shabu 1 HabourFront Walk #01-102/103 Vivocity Tel: 6377 0060 Operating Hours: (Mon-Fri) Lunch: 11.30am - 2.30pm Dinner: 5.30pm - 9.30pm (Sat, Sun & PH): 11.30 am - 9.30pm Ratings: Average Shabuya Shabu Shabu is one of the newer restaurants around Vivocity. The restaurant is split into two sides, one side specialising in yakiniku (meaning grilled meat in English), while the other side specialises in shabu shabu (Japanese hot pot). When I was there with Nala a few weekends back, we decided to have shabu shabu.  As compared to sukiyaki, shabu shabu is supposed to be more savoury and less sweet.  We have two broths to choose from, one that is miso-based while the other is clear broth made with kelp.... read more

foodie paradise writes: Ueno Beef House 51 Lor 6 Toa Payoh #01-60 Rating: Average When I first ate at Uno (that’s probably one or two years ago), the business was brisk and I had to wait 45 minutes for my order to come on a Saturday night. That time, Uno was the new kid on the block for western food and everyone was buzzing about how good the food there was Business was not as brisk as before, when I dined at Uno recently, also on a Saturday night. Personally, I thought the food didn’t taste as good as before. Mushroom Soup - $2.00 It’s typical “Campbell Mushroom Soup”, not surprising for hawker food fare. However, I didn’t like ... read more

foodie paradise writes: Royal Copenhagen Tea Lounge Takashimaya Singapore Department Store 391 Orchard Road, Level 2 Singapore 238873 Singapore Phone: +65 6735 6833 Operating hours: Mondays to Sundays: 10.00 to 21.00 (last order at 20.30) Ratings: Delicious Somehow, I always associate Royal Copenhagen Tea Lounge with afternoon tea, exquisite porcelain, tai-tais (women of leisurely pleasure), and atas food (atas is a colloquial term for high-class). Despite my impression of Royal Copenhagen Tea Lounge, it was on my “To-Try” list for a long time. Maybe subconsciously, I want to be a tai tai one day. =P Finally, I went there to have my lunch during one of the weekends, after hearing my colleague raved about the place. My impression of Royal Copenhagen Tea Lounge ... read more

foodie paradise writes: Tetsu 163 Tanglin Road #03-18 Tanglin Mall Singapore 247933 Dining at Tetsu is a multi-sensory treat. Diners not only get authentic Japanese food prepared by Japanese-trained chefs using fresh ingredients that are specially flown in from Japan, they also get a visual treat of seeing their food being prepared right before their eyes. This is because at Tetsu, diners get to sit at specially designed counter bars where they get to see the chefs deftly prepare their Kushi-style Tempura and Tonkatsu meals right at close proximity. I am glad to be invited for a food tasting session for two at Tetsu recently. The first thing that struck me the ... read more
