The scallops (hotate) are super huge! They torched them for a while and served while still warm. The moment you bite the scallop, it melts in your mouth! Yummm... the scallop melts yet still juicy and crunchy, enabling you to chew them. The mentai sauce is a perfect combi as it gives you that ‘umami’ taste, preventing you feeling too ‘gao’ from eating those gigantic scallop
Favourite place for fish soup in One-North area. The fish is fresh and the broth is super good! I always asked for extra milk as I prefer to have my fish soup thick and milky. You can choose either white noodle or yellow noodle, either thick and thin. They also have rice option (additional $0.60)
The laksa fish soup is another recommended menu here.
Had the thick soup, it’s very ‘gao’. Preferred the lighter version. The lobster balls were okay, yet I wished they were served warm. The lobster meat is nice though.
This Keisuke Lobster King chain provides mortar for you to make your own ‘egg salad’. Eggs, mayonnaise, sesame seeds, sauces are freeflow. Had a very fun experience making my egg salad while waiting for my ramen.
The chicken skin is crispy and the meat is tender. I really love the melted cheese! You have to eat this fast while it’s still warm, cause it becomes a little bit soggy when it is cold.
Best best best keylime tart I have ever tried! The sour taste is strong, yet blend well with the sweetness of the cream. Super refreshing!
The apple crumble cake is standard. The crust is crunchy, yet the apple filling is a bit too sweet!
The cafe will have their daily cake selections; therefore, if keylime is part of the cakes of the day, please try it! You wouldn’t regret.
The skin is crunchy, the meat is tender and the fat melts in your mouth! The only downpart is it is way too salty for me. You can try dipping it to the mustard sauce, it helps.
Quite a big portion for appetizer, suitable for sharing with 3-4 person. ($9++)
Had this for the 4th time! The chicken biryani is consistently good; unlike the mutton one (sometimes mutton was tender yet another time was hard). The chicken is tasty and the spices taste is super strong; so be prepared!
They have 2 sizes - small ($6) and regular ($10). I always ordered the small one as the rice given was HUGE! I hardly finish it alone.
Come earlier (before 12pm to avoid the crowd)
The lobster was tiny compared to bread. Ended up eating the bread with fries. The fries is tasty though! Wouldn’t come back for this lobster rolls, but don’t mind coming back to try the crab!
BEST DISH! Eat it while warm with a bowl of rice! The tofu skin is tasty while the inside will melt in your mouth.
Located at Chijmes vicinity, the Glasshouse is one of the perfect places to start your weekend vibe.
The food selection is limited. Mostly are toasts with sourdorough. The ham & cheese croissant (with omelette add-on) was decent, while the carrot cake and lavender cake were quite filling.
Definitely recommended the coffee though!
Tips: come before 9.45, as the crowd exponentially grows after 10 am; otherwise you have to share table with others.
Salmon belly, aburi salmon, snow crab, ikura and house-made pickles [based on menu]
My favourite is, unexpectedly, the snow crab! Soft and milky texture, it really goes well with the rice seasoned with special blend of furikake and tare.
The salmon is quite fresh and thick, however, I was wondering where’s my aburi salmon! The salmon I got was 3 pieces of salmon sashimi (raw) and another 3 pieces of salmon belly sashimi (raw).
The portion is not as big as I expected, however, it is sufficient to make my tinytummy happy.
The most authentic soto (Indonesian soup) place in Singapore! Even the utensils are Indo-style - see that old school enamel plate, serving white rice with bawang goreng!
Ordered soto betawi (beef soup with coconut milk), the soup is thick with sweet yet savoury flavour. Added some drops of kecap manis and fresh lime from the condiments bar to add another layer of flavour. The soto portion is quite small, so best to add-on Bakwan Jagung ($1.60) or Bala-Bala ($1.60) as a side dish!
