Big portions despite us using a Groupon. Charcoal froyo was yummy too. But other than that, the mango and lychee jelly caviar that popped in our mouths were a bit too artificial tasting for our liking and were bitter at some points. Should have stuck to the dried fruits #regret. Milk soft serve also melted in our mouths to leave little bits of coagulated milk (?) so it definitely wasn't the smoothest soft serve out there.
Wholesome and super freaking delicious. Those crunchy prawn balls and soft beancurd skin and perfectly seasoned meatballs... Absolute fave (that we keep coming back to even though dad is always complaining that they don't allow him to take extra chili 😂)
Such a hidden gem in the basement of Heeren / Robinsons. Relatively quiet even on a Saturday afternoon, perfect for a respite in the middle of town. Loved the thick chunks of apple and how it was not too sweet. The excellent vanilla ice cream just made it even better. This was serve cold but I can imagine it would have been great warmed up. Savoury food menu seems good too (duck confit!) so will be back to try.
The parents finally got to try this and they enjoyed it tremendously. $80++ for an omakase meal with what seems like countless courses (some not pictured here). Highlights of the night were the crab legs, giant sea prawn soup, and foie gras unagi combination. And the more uncommon items like barnacles and the ice plant. 💯 worth it.
Assorted toppings (mostly made in-house) spread generously over perfectly toasted sourdough bread with a crispy crust and soft chewy insides. Loved the nut butter, which had none of that gummy texture that commercially produced nut butter can have. Coupled with the honey and sea salt flakes, it was a pretty darn perfect piece of toast. Cafe au lait was sadly a bit weak which was a waste...
1/3 the price of a Korean bingsu and therefore so much more satisfying. The black sesame taste was very rich and pronounced so we were happy girls scraping the bottom of the bowl.
Haven't been here in some time. Prices have increased but the menu has changed - the big breakkie definitely did not have a chorizo sausage last time. The sausage was a pleasant surprise - not as salty as I expected it to be. Pity my egg was broken and the bread was a little stale-tasting. That candied bacon though... still the best.
Super delicious with big portions and it was only about S$2 a bowl. Their rice noodles were so deliciously soft.
Endorsed by Anthony Bourdain and apparently the best in Vietnam. This was sooooo good. The bread - as important as the fillings - was crusty despite the humidity and the fillings were delicious. We gobbled it all up and it was worth every crumb. And less than S$2!
They only serve a set meal (approx US$5) and it consists of free flow fried spring rolls, grilled meat skewers, crispy pancakes (banh xeo), pickles and fresh veggies. Oh, and a dessert (chocolate pudding or mango puree!) The waitress demonstrated how to wrap everything together and man... it was delicious. The freshly grilled meats and fried spring rolls and pancakes were hot and juicy and the pickles and fresh veg were perfect contrast against them. That dipping sauce was super delicious too 💯👌🏻
Melben's crab bee hoon soup is really unbeatable. Super satisfying meal. The quality of the crabs here is really excellent. Come early to get seats - it was empty at 5.45 on a Friday night but filled up quickly (and the famous queue started forming...)
So good. The Iberian pork was so juicy and tender, and had none of that gamey pork taste that we tend to find in some local places.
