The Mac and Cheese is really creamy and cheesy, not too salty. The double portion costs $16.90, which is good for sharing. The spicy topokki is really good! The topokki sauce goes so well with the chicken tenders, and the gravy is savoury and well-flavoured. Take note, due to the new restrictions in restaurants, diners might have to spend some time waiting as there are fewer available seats due to social distancing. But still, the queue moves fast.
Picnic’s concept consists different individual stores in area, where they have ramen, pasta, Omakase burgers, chicken rice etc. Decided to try the burgers at Omakase because I was curious of how the impossible burger would turn out. The impossible burger is vegetarian, so mock meat is used. The mock meat is really good and as a meat lover, it really tastes like the real meat!! Chose the chilli cheese fries for sides and it’s really nice and not spicy at all (would prefer for it to have more kick).
Was recommended this very affordable find in the neighbourhood. Got the karata ramen (spicy) at $7.50, and added $1 for egg, and topped up to make a set that comes with 3 pieces of gyoza and a drink (total price $12.50), which was very affordable. The broth was really spicy but flavourful and packs a punch. You can choose the spiciness level though! The gyozas are really good and crispy on the outside. The seats are a bit squeezy though, so be prepared to squeeze a little. Or you can always choose to find them on food delivery apps :)

The charsiew sauce is sweet and the chicken is pretty tender. Quite an interesting dish. However, the other dishes available are slightly pricey. One good thing about this is that it is halal certified!
Fluffy waffles with hazelnut ice cream that is light and not too sickeningly sweet. They have very friendly staff who really made my day! Be prepared to wait though on a Friday night as there are many customers.
The lychee martini cheesecake is a highly recommended dessert. It has chunks of lychee bits in it. The texture of the cheesecake is pretty creamy, somewhat between a cheesecake and a pudding, as it is a no-bake cheesecake. The flavours complement one another very well, and it is light and not too jelak.
This is only available during lunch and it’s not on their menu. It has a generous serving of steak with sukiyaki sauce, with an onsen egg. The steak is really tender and well-marinated. Amazing. The regular steak on their menu is delicious as well, and one thing I liked was that the steak is already cut for you, which saves the trouble. Remember to ask for a reservation or be prepared to wait as it is a popular dining spot!
We had a group lunch and ordered the Mango Set which has 10 courses, and a mix of fusion Chinese food. The crispy yam bag with scallops is really surprising and the flavours balanced so well, which is really pleasant for someone who doesn’t like yam. The truffle dumplings with shitake mushrooms are delicious too, if you like truffle. The rest of the menu can be found on their website. Overall, really good quality food and a very great experience with nice ambience and very welcoming staff.
Got the one for one deal and the total price for 2 sets is around $14.80 which is super worth it! The beef is sweet and tender. There are a lot of side dishes you can add on e.g. tempura, gyozas etc. We chose the gyoza and it’s crispy and nice. Overall a very pleasant experience and would definitely return!
Discovered this place at Sunshine Plaza, serving authentic Japanese food. We ordered the Unagi don and it is a must to order drinks in order to use the burpple beyond deal. The Unagi bowl is actually smaller than expected, as we got it in M size. (They have M, L and XL). But the Unagi is really flavourful and so delicious. Service, however, is a bit slow, but the Japanese staff was very very nice and polite. Other than that, their menu is very diverse and has a lot of variety! Would be interested to try out other dishes in future.
Got the small size and we are allowed to choose 2 toppings. Chose the speculoos lotus biscuit sauce with KitKat balls and the overall combination is really nice. Caution though, the ice cream melts really fast.
