Unearthing Gems Around The Office

Delicious broth! Good sized and amount of beef. Come early as the wait is long (20min).

New joint in the area. Serves good coffee!

A delightful place for morning meetings. High ceiling and greenery. Breath of fresh air in this neighborhood.

Recently, this is where I've been going for my wanton mee fix. The char siew is tender and well marinated, while the noodles are eggy and springy. Although the char siew is not cooked under charcoal like the traditional ones, this was torched so that helps bring out some smokiness in it. Wanton is very soft, and there's a bottle of pork lard for you to add as much as desired 😋

My first dinner here saw me selecting the $98++ omakase (also available in $68++ and $138++).
After I had polished off an appetiser of thinly-sliced sea bream topped with caviar (pictured above in the corner top left) and a plate of sashimi, the following seven pieces of sushi were meticulously put together and served one at a time by Leading Chef Kenny:

1. Kanpachi
2. Engawa (Flounder Fin)
3. Marinated Bluefin Tuna with Japanese Yam
4. Kohada and Wakame
5. Aburi Salmon with Chef's Special Bonito Flakes
6. Foie Gras on Hotate (Scallop)
7. Anago (Sea Eel)

I found the quality of every sushi to be impressive, both in freshness and in size.
Chef then made me a bowl of Fresh Clams in Miso Soup on the spot. Its belly-warming comfort was a really wonderful thing to sip on. My meal was brought to a close with Ume Jelly for dessert.

Loved the al dente noodles, so springy and the seasoning is perfect. This is probably one of the best ban mian I've had in recent time. Get it!

Rated Divine by makansutra in 2013 for their curry chicken noodles, this place is located at the corner of L1 Golden Mile Food Centre. They pasted a burpple review on their storefront so I decided to order immediately. The chicken was sweet and the broth has a strong spicy kick. It's better than most curry chicken noodles, but the divine rating just set my expectations too high. I'll have this again!

Really enjoyed this ball of goodness! Flavor oozes out with each bite of the rice ball. A good side dish that goes nicely with your green bucket salad (located just 2 doors down).

Beerthai is located at the inner corner of the complex. Boy oh boy, the broth was so intense that I let out a "wah" that shocked my wife (#burppleculture), and it went really well with the soft rice noodles. If you're looking for an intense bowl of noodles with tripe, tendon and chewy beef balls, this is it.

Located in the same unit, this joint sells curry puffs and nasi lemak. Oh boy, the puffs were pipping hot and so flavorful. Loved it! Complement it with a kopi bing for a power combo that promises you energy to work in the afternoon.
