As for the Dashi Maki Tamago, it usually comes with crab roe paste for eight bucks (before GST & service charge), but as we were riding high from the smashing success of the sautéed togarashi, we managed to convince the chef to put the chili flakes on the omelette instead. Unfortunately, it didn’t work out due the the simple fact that the togarashi wasn’t sautéed, as making tamago requires a heat level that isn’t hot enough to sauté the Japanese chili flakes. ⠀

Still, the tamago was mildly savoury from the dashi broth added into the mix, and it possessed the delightfully pillowy & feather light characteristics that define a good Japanese omelette.⠀

I never thought I’d say this, but I’m actually pretty pumped to return to Nomiya for the absolutely awesome oden that will henceforth be my quick revive juice. I’m pumped for the sake too. And the rice balls. And the grilled goodies. And the seafood. And the-yeah, you get the general idea.

Mention Goldhill Plaza and you might not immediately think of good food, but this restobar might just change your mind! With the mantra of "Eat Like A Boss", you'll find generous servings of western dishes ranging from the Classic Beef Burger ($11.90), Salmon Teriyaki Burger ($10.90) and Crispy Chicken Burger ($9.90), which is served with their homemade signature "Special Sauce". Hmm, we wonder what that is?

Located in the heartlands of Toa Payoh Lorong 6, head down to this fuss-free eatery for affordable Thai wanton mee and authentic dishes. At just $5.80, enjoy their signature Thai Wanton Mee for chewy noodles, thick cuts of char siew, crispy lard and juicy dumplings! Kick up the heat with their Tom Yum Noodle Soup Kuay Teow ($5.80), paired with side dishes of Thai Basil Minced Pork ($7.80) and Tom Yum Goong (Prawn) ($9.80).

Singapore's first Singapore Idol winner Taufik Batisah is now the boss of Chix Hot Chicken, which specialises in Nashville-style fried chicken. We're talking about ultra-crispy and spicy fried chicken (from $9.90) doused in a flavourful sauce that usually involves a lot of cayenne, butter, and oil. There are four different spice levels here: Mild, Medium, Hot, and Insane - let's just say that unless you can really take your spice, you'll want to avoid the last one.

Pre-steaming/blanching the crabs before finishing it on the grill (sprinkled with that crack salt) may result in not super juicy crabs, but the ridiculous amount of roe more than made up for it.

This stall situated in a coffeeshop along Tyrwhitt Road should be reserved for days when you can head out for an early lunch. Offering char siew, sio bak, duck and chicken, lunch time often sees a long line of customers eager to get their hands on the famed roast meats. Of the four available, go for the Char Siew for its melt-in-your-mouth fatty bits that guarantees a satisfying lunch. Follow Tastemaker Irene Arieputri's recommendation and add on the Sio Bak for its tender meat, unbelievably crisp, crackling skin that has just the right amount of fats. You can have the roast meats with Rice (from $4) or request to have it with springy Wanton Noodles ($4.50) from the stall next door, The Wanton Mee Co.
Avg Price: $5 per person
