For the sleepy office crowd, your perfect pick-me-up would be this cup of coffee ($1.10) from The 1950s Coffee. Hailing a long queue during lunch, everyone went for the coffee, which was thick and aromatic with no sour aftertaste. We were buzzing with caffeine after our afternoon tea 😛
Pretty good fried rice, $5 after adding ingredients
Really peppery soup 👍
Days ahead looking colourful just like this toast. It's served with housemade espresso berry compote and a creamy mascarpone before drizzling with honey. Nice one for the photo.

Located at the 6th floor of JEM, this cafe is truly a hidden gem. Take your pick from their selection of rotational flavours, 1 sauce and 1 topping to complete your popsicle treat at $4.80 (classic) / $5.80 (premium), then either sit in to enjoy the aircon or go alfresco and enjoy the beautiful scenery at night 😍
As my bf and I wanted something more refreshing, we got the grapefruit yogurt + dark choco + pecans (bottom) and mango lime + white choco + almond nibs (top) respectively. The former gave a balanced sensation in your mouth as the intense, dark chocolate gets to you first before the popsicle itself - of which the acidity and bitterness of the grapefruit managed to cut the sourness of the yogurt. Interestingly, the latter is quite the opposite as the lime hits you hard, hence making the toppings inferior and insignificant.
Nonetheless, both were great in terms of taste and would definitely drop by again to try the creamier flavours!
Happy with these delicious ramen in comparably cheaper price. Portion was just nice, soup was rich and the seasonal flavour of mentaiko is a must try!

The Gringo Burger - $15
·
Honey mustard pork patties, house-made guacamole, salsa. Burger comes with nacho chips.
Honest tasty meat patties. Toasted buns adds slight crisp. Smooth guacamole sauce goes well with the burger but that amount means there’s not enough guacamole or salsa sauces to go with the nacho chips. The tasty burger is enough to make the meal enjoyable, with some nicely seasoned fries will be perfection

With SPRMRKT’s move from McCallum Street to Cluny Court, residents and visitors to that part of Singapore now have a new option for all-day dining.
What makes the food here unique is that Chef-owner Joseph Yeo very much into drawing inspiration from his own life for the food he creates. I think that’s such a meaningful and lovely way to put a personal stamp on familiar dishes. For eg, the recipe for the “Cuka” or Indonesian-style vinaigrette dip that accompanied the Chilli Corn Fritters, came from his childhood nanny. She’s clearly an excellent cook because the sourish, spicy dip was a hit with all of us. Addictive and versatile, we found it paired well with other items like the Slow Roasted Pork & Goji Berry Rice Bowl ($20++) too.
From all the dishes served today, my top picks would be the Salted Egg Carbonara ($23++), the Salt-baked Beetroot with Anchovies (from the dinner menu), the aforementioned Chilli Corn Fritters ($9++) and the Matcha Red Bean Tiramisu ($13++).
I loved how the Carbonara tasted both familiar yet new. Cooked with “lap cheong”, bacon, a sous vide egg, salted egg sauce (made from freshly-grated salted eggs, not the ready-made powder), chilli padi, garlic, curry leaves, and finished with aged Parmesan, it was a most robust, spicy and very shiok pasta.
The beetroot dish, on the other hand, had a cleaner tasting profile. Chef shared that he encased the whole beetroot in salt to bake. This method retained its juiciness while muting its earthiness that some people find too strong. Having beetroot with anchovies was a first for me and I thought they were great together.
Tossed al dente spaghetti with strips of ham. C’est Délicieux.

Finally tried it! The patty is really worth the trip. Thick, juicy and done medium rare. And did I say the salad is really good too. Will be back again!
