A satisfying meal at Ichiban Sushi. They serve quality Japanese set meals at a reasonable price, so I have been patronising for years. To be honest, I think Sushi Tei is better, but the queue is always so so long.

Ok, that's all.

This Korean Chinese restaurant serves really good noodles. The servings are huge, so you could probably share a bowl of noodles and order a pizza on the side. I really love the Keu Ppong Cream, which tasted somewhat like a good bowl of Carbonara. They are generous on the seafood too, and you get 1-for-1 on Burpple Beyond!

Interesting experience at Tonkotsu Kazan Ramen at JEM. Soup is poured into the stone bowls and the funnel is placed on top for the smoke to exhaust. It’s more of a gimmick, but the ramen also tasted not too bad. Free side dish during lunchtime. Portions are really huge so don’t go for the large bowl unless you are starving...

To date still one of the best Bingsu places in Singapore and also in my top 3 list! ✌🏻☝🏻Green tea or Injeolmi? Personally I would choose the latter as the green tea flavour here was a tad mild for my liking. Nevertheless, the main highlight afterall is the shaved milk ice that comes with a fluffy, snowflake-alike texture- soft, smooth and refined, like a gush of thin air that melts in the mouth instantly upon contact. Oh and if you have not known, ‘Nunsaram’ actually stands for ‘snowman’ in Korean ⛄️ , which perhaps accounted for the snowflake-alike texture in the bingsu here! ❄️ The green tea bingsu is served with red bean, a scoop of green tea ice cream and dusted generously with green tea powder and almond flakes for an added crunch. Taste of green tea could have been more distinct as the one here leans towards the sweeter, milky profile, not for the hardcore matchaholics. Nevertheless, I still enjoyed it overall as a dessert on its own without acknowledging the fact that this was a green tea flavoured dessert 🤭. The roasted soybean powder in the Injeolmi bingsu came with pleasant and lingering roasted flavour and fragrance, coupled with bits of chewy mochi and crunchy almond nuts and flakes. Somehow this reminded me of Kinako and warabi mochi, but with a tweak into a korean version perhaps? 🤔 As for the Hotteok set, it comes with a scoop vanilla ice cream, dusted with almond flakes and drizzled with chocolate sauce. If you are wondering, hotteok is actually a traditional korean local snack, of pancake made with glutinous rice flour, resulting in a thick, chewy and mochi-alike texture in its batter. Flavour is spiced up with the addition of cinnamon which (fortunately for me) is subtle and mild here. Might get a tad dry after awhile but with the addition of chocolate sauce and vanilla ice cream, this situation could be alleviated. Lastly, the acai berry smoothie that’s made with a blend of acai berry, mixed berries and banana was a thick, refreshing beverage that could have been better if the flavours were more distinct!

Asked for stevia but somehow i feel that it spoiled the taste. The alcohol sugar taste is really too strong, should have ask for lesser stevia too. The proportion of milk powder and avocado is also off because the milk taste is overpowering the avocado taste.

The smell from the Monster Curry always makes me really hungry so I decided to try it for dinner. And it’s a huge plate of Japanese curry rice for a decent price! You get to choose your spice level, so it’s great for those who love their chilli and find normal Japanese curry too sweet for their liking.

Stir-fried rice cakes in spicy sauce, fishcake slices, along with 2 fried dumplings and seaweed rolls, half an original Gimbap, the portion here is definitely abundant for a meal or great for sharing among 2-3 pax. The addition of cheese is definitely an enhancement, with its thick, springy texture and temporal elasticity that lasts while hot ; otherwise just enjoy its characteristic piquant flavour that adds a pleasant tinge of savoury saltiness to the tangy, spicy and flavourful Gojuchang sauce. The dumplings and seaweed rolls are deep fried to an ideal crisp perfection on their golden brown batters, with surprise fillings of glass noodles which I simply adore! 💖 The original gimbap roll comes with assorted fillings of chicken ham, burdock, yellow pickled radish, cucumber, carrot and egg (swipe to view). A visually pleasing dish that satisfies the palate as well, along with a pleasant crunch from the assorted roots and greens embedded within. Lastly, the main highlight (though not so for me) is the stir-fried rice cakes, a traditional local korean snack that comes with a thick,chewy, mochi-like texture which complements the spicy and flavourful Gochujang sauce. Though a pleasant snack to indulge in, I would highly recommend for sharing unless you are a huge fan of rice cakes & mochi in general .

My all times favourite healthy (depends on the toppings and dressing you choose) wrap! 😜😜😜

Brown rice and salmon poke! Healthy yet so delicious! They have recently changed their pricing strategy, so prices have increased generally. Still, a very good poke bowl.

Pork ribs were really tender though it was really lean. The noodles had a nice bite, being firm yet supple. Though the sauce might look thin it's actually quite viscous and provided loads of sweet umami
