Cafes

I love tomyam and this tomyam pasta was really tasty. It’s tangy and is in the spicier side. The prawns were fresh quite fresh. I thought the portion was a tad small, and I was craving for more. The cafe was rather small and the waitstaff service was okay.

Gokoku (nestled within Meidi-ya Japanese supermarket) was such a rare gem. Assorted breads were worth the extra $$$ (since they’re priced slightly more expensive than your usual neighbourhood bakery). Plus you could get a coffee at their in-house cafe to go with your baked goods, and have it in the supermarket itself (or, the outdoor patio if you wish)! Will definitely come back for more.

The ramen risotto looked fabulous but didn’t taste as exceptional as it looks. Umami flavours of the risotto got a bit jelak after a few mouthfuls. The mala pork (starters; not pictured) was lackluster - without its accompanying sauce, the pork is rather bland or “un-marinated”.

Service was slow despite <10 customers in the cafe.
