myfoodsirens writes: Helmed by Singapore’s first artisan chocolatier, Jewels Artisan Chocolate made its debut with a café cum boutique at Orchard Central last month. Yes, that lonely mall besides the perpetually crowded 313@Somerset. And Schokalart doesn’t stand a chance now that Jewels is just a stone’s throw away!

Food POI writes: During the heat of Xiu Long Baos (Meat Dumplings), you see every franchise brands that sell this food are mushrooming rapidly except Din Tai Fung which remains as single outlet at The Gardens Midvalley. Why they maintain as a single outlet in Malaysia is due to the Taiwanese culture who put more attention towards quality then quantity. They had a reputation to keep as one of the top 10 Best Restaurant of the World by New York Times.  With the recent open of the Pavilion outlet in Kuala Lumpur, they bring you the same quality of food and service as good as any other outlets of Din Tai Fung Restaurants around the world.

Malaysia

Robyn Eckhardt writes: We're in Chiang Mai. And this is what we had for our second lunch on Monday.

They're there Sunday through Saturday (mom occasionally takes a day off -- "When I feel tired") ...
