Great Food And Great Service I really enjoyed the tonkatsu toast and wagyu beef with onsen dip. Tonkatsu was not dry, had a flavourful sauce and the toast went really well with the whole dish. The wagyu beef slices were cooked well and paired well with the onsen egg. The service crew were really friendlu and helpful too with recommending dishes!

Delicious Food I ordered the Aburiya A4 Wagyu Beef Burger while my partner ordered the Pipes Burger and they surely did not disappoint. The meat in both burgers are very tender that provided just the right amount of taste without being too overpowering or underwhelming. The cafe have a very relaxing ambience to it and it enhance our experience dining there. A good place to relax!

Pipes Burger Loved the modern, relaxing vibes at the cafe, especially the scent of freshly ground coffee. It was also a convenient and accessible spot as it is situated right beside Outram Park MRT. We ordered the PIPES Burger and Wagyu Burger, both of which are very unique. The meat was very moist and the amount of sauce was just right. Really loved their fluffy, buttered toasted buns, which added another layer of richness to the burger. Their tamago was well done, adding a good complement of sweetness to the otherwise savoury burger. They serve complimentary black coffee here in large cups, which was a pleasant surprise! We also tried the Matcha and Chocolate cream buns, which came with generous, overflowing amount of cream fillings. The buns were really soft and fluffy as well. The staff who directly served us throughout our meal (a Japanese man and a young pretty lady) were friendly and courteous, making it a great experience. The only drawback was my encounter with an older lady (who seemed to be the manager) - her attitude towards her customers was rather unsatisfactory, and she called for her colleague in a pretty rude manner. Hopefully she would improve on her service and that would definitely make me very willing to return!

Chicken Garam Masala And Mushroom Somen Meat was tender and juicy; spice mix on point. The mushroom somen ($6) was a meal on its own - sauce is very flavourful; somen soft and tender.

Polenta Crepe And Vegetable Medley ($22++) Vegetables were bursting with flavour. It was very filling; staff very attentive.

For 1-for-1 Main Dish (save ~$25) Heads up, fans of funky fare! This diner doles out mains with a modern twist on old comforts. Take the Braised Beef Meatballs ($25) served with herb celeriac, wood ear fungus and lemon sauce for a tangy finish! Their Garam Masala Chicken Drumsticks ($24) is reminiscent of tandoori chicken with the fresh spices and herbs. Order the umami house-made Miso Cream ($5 each) to pair with anything on the menu, and don't forget to end your meal with the highly recommended Pandan Pana Cotta ($7). Photo by Burppler Abigail S

Delicious Handmade Ban Mian Tucked Away in Chinatown Signature Handmade Ban Mian (Dry) with Prawns paints a more appetising picture with its dark sauce and prawns. The banmian was well-coated in the savoury gravy and had a good bite. Read more: https://www.misstamchiak.com/mian-zhuang/

you mian with sliced fish ($3.50) light and sweet broth, noodles texture was 10/10. minced meat was well seasoned and sliced fish was very nice to bite. love the mani cai that was used as well.

If you love Mee Hoon Kueh, you should give this stall a try some day. So I tried Mian Zhuang 麵荘 twice – at Hong Lim food centre and delivery; and also recommended a few friends to the stall. They gave it the thumbs up. What is noteworthy is that Mian Zhuang 麵荘 uses noodles made from scratch daily and not bought from any factory, and is healthier without added preservatives. I ordered a Mee Hoon Kueh with Fish, and noted that the uncle serving it drizzled some black sauce in a circular motion at the end. This was the sauce that made quite a bit of difference – thick, savoury and packed with flavours. The self-blended chilli was also rather spicy, but very shiok and added a bit helped ‘lift’ the overall taste. They provide islandwide delivery as well. All fees go to the riders.

royal ragu instead of a build-your-own pasta, i decided to get a pasta from the menu! having tried their smoked duck pasta with pink sauce, this tomato-based pasta was not as good as the former as it tastes similar to other pasta restaurants as well 🙂 i would totally recommend smoked duck instead~

BYOP: Beef Ragu W/ Truffle Oil And Smoked Duck Love the beef ragu sauce, smoke duck was tad bit salty. The pasta was too soft for personal taste, quite overcooked. But service was 11/10 constantly checking if you have enough water. Chill and clean place.

Special Pasta Place Love the fact that they put in effort into making their pasta fresh and different from other Italian restaurants. Prices are good, and I love the chili lime fettuccine in pink sauce.

Avocado Toastie When you're at @freetherobot.sg, do give their Avocado Toastie ($12+) a try! 👍🏻 An all-day sandwich, this vegetarian sandwich made a healthy yet yummy eat! 🤩 . Featuring a generous slab of neatly-lined avocado 🥑, baby spinach 🥬, homemade basil pesto, feta & cheddar 🧀 sandwiched between homemade white bread, I loved the layering of textures! 💗 . Creamy avocado, crunch of the sides of the toasted bread 🍞 with soft interior & crisp leafy vegetables, how good does that sound? Try it for yourself! 😋

Handmade Meatball Pasta Their Handmade Meatball Pasta ($16) was less flattering. We opted for Chicken Meatballs 🐔 (cream-based pasta) which features pasta with Parmigiano cheese 🧀, garlic, onions, tomato 🍅, all cooked in their homemade chicken stock & white wine. The pasta & meatballs were very light on flavours.

Blue Swimmer Crab Pasta Recommend The Blue Swimmer Crab Pasta ($20+) at @freetherobot_sg! 💗 Featuring a generous amount of Blue Swimmer crabmeat 🦀, baby scallops, garlic, tomatoes 🍅 drenched in a luscious chilli crab sauce, white wine & cognac 🥃, topped with a sprinkle of pine nuts 🥜, this plate was screaming delicious! 😋

Warm Soba with Pork Slices& a side of Seafood Tempura In-house freshly made soba noodles! I have always been a huge fan of soba and/ udon. This place housed the 2 favourites of mine! How can I miss this! Ordered the warm soba with pork collar slices and side order, a Seafood Tempura. This is not your usual tempura! It has shrimps, onions, carrots, french bean, squid and scallops! What a gem! Warm Soba with Pork Collar Slices; $13.90 Seafood Tempura; $6

Cozy Shop Good and worthy soba. Portion also reasonable for the price. Definitely can revisit.

Cold Soba with Vegetable Tempura Read alot of good reviews about this place and was reallyyy craving a good soba! The dipping sauce is a 10/10 not too sweet and not too salty hehe what i really enjoyed was the tempura tho HAHAH not alot of batter and the veggies were in large pieces! (theres long beans too first time seeing them in a tempura) Super crunchy and yummy 😋

Instagrammable Cafe Cheese Filling Tortellini $17.90 (Left) Nicole’s Favour $23.90 (Right) Charcoal Waffle with Ice Cream $15.90 (Top) My hoomans finally brought me along & I was able to enter indoors! ☺️ Cafe was really really pretty, with many mirrors and flowers. Food was decent, but portion was small for the price paid. Hoomans were not full at all 😞 May drop by again if they’re in the area for photos or they would rather visit another cafe in the vicinity for food.

Nice decor & food, but service was a fail You would think that with such an expensive menu & beautiful decor, the atmosphere would be really good. But honestly the waiting staff lessened the experience. It was off-peak but a total of 7 idle staff were being extremely loud and noisy, mucking around and playing & even dancing with each other right in front of everyone dining. Sadly it makes the atmosphere more like Pizza Hut and is really unprofessional. Food & drinks were really not bad but the service is just off-putting. It would have been more normal at a cheaper place, but for the price you pay this isn’t the kind of service you would expect.

Lovely souffle pancakes in a pretty pink environment Original souffle pancakes. Glad for the polarised reviews that lowered expectations. Very glad that the pancake arrived faster than expected. And after sitting for a while for photo-taking, yes it was slightly denser but there were fluffy parts! What I really liked was the cream and fruits! Will gladly have it again 😊

Matcha Bo Bo Cup Cake Matcha Bo Bo Cup Cake (September 玖月) ($5.90) I didn't expected that it's full of whipping cream plus didn't enjoy their matcha cream (taste so weird). I really like their boba pearls but it's quite sticky for me. It's a bit disappointed for me and ppl pls don't order this dessert even though it can be takeaway easily.

@september_toast Fruit Puffy Omelette 🥞 Wow where do I begin 🤣 We saw from the menu that the Fruit Fuffy Omelette cost $9.90 each & was a bit confused when the cashier charged us $10.90 instead (I know you must be thinking it's just $1 but imagine they have been doing it to all their customers.... wow how much more they could have earned?) So we went to ask the cashier and she told us cause we ordered the dish that has more fruits. You should really see my shocked face when she said that. Like which part of your menu says that there's such a dish? How would we as a first time customers know how to order a dish that contains more fruits? Your menu only shows Fruit Fuffy Omelette - $9.90 THAT'S ALL. And sis, I don't even know your Fruit Fuffy Omelette contains how many fruits (don't worry now I know, it contains this pathetic amount of blueberries & strawberries - as shown in the image). Like dude if you charged us wrongly don't try to do such thing and cover your own mistake. It's not reflecting well as a restaurant. Just return me my $1 that you openly cheated us!! Also, this dish made us waited for so long and it's soooo disappointing. It's definitely not worth the wait, the money & the calories. Nothing special about it, just tasted like something you can make at home 😅 Should have known better & shouldn't have trusted those sponsored post online, #myheartcannottakeit for this one. - 🤑: SGD 9.90 - 👅: 1/5

Mixed fruit cake 🍰 the sweetness is just right and I like the texture. 桃子，奇异果，草莓，古早味的蛋糕层，甜度适中，赏心悦目。 https://www.instagram.com/p/CGsNnfiH-8q/?igshid=142znop37sc00

Vanilla Panna Cotta With Coconut Ice Cream Pretty looking but I was disappointed that there were no visible flecks of vanilla beans. It is definitely a game changer when real vanilla pods are used, for that intense vanilla taste. Coconut ice cream was a good choice to complement the mango purée and the creaminess of the panna cotta!

If you have no plans tomorrow and have to wait for countdown plans at night, how about having high tea (my current addiction) and reflect for 2015? 😂😂 As part of the festive season in December, One-Ninety Bar & Terraza by Javier de las Muelas is offering a festive afternoon tea ($44++) between 2pm to 5pm daily with a three-tier selection of sweet and savory delights. On top of that, you can get to enjoy a complimentary TWG Festive Tea set! Other than the three-tier selection of savouries and sweets, fresh finger sandwiches were served separately. Find out more from the link in my profile!

Premium Kiwami Tonkatsu Ramen ($12.80) Rich savoury broth with juicy tender pork cheek slices. Delicious but can be a bit cloying for those who prefer clearer, simple broths. Had to add an extra $2 for the ramen egg though. The gyozas were honestly pretty forgettable.

Gyoza with Fried Rice Not many ramen places in Singapore that also sell fried rice. Kiwami is the place where you can go for their fried rice, other than their signature ramen. Fried with wok hey and egg mixed, I really enjoy the fragrance of the rice. Also pair interestingly with the gyoza. Yes who say you can’t eat the gyoza together with fried rice?

A Bowl of Premium Tonkotsu $12.80+ After a long day of work, a good bowl of ramen is much needed. Saw this Japanese shop is full of people. The live cooking station at the storefront is quite interesting. Seemed their fried rice is good, looking at the texture & color. My bowl of tonkotsu is tasty, the brooth is flavourful and not too salty. Add chilli oil for an extra kick of spicy flavour.
