Australian Wagyu Buffet Went on a weekend lunch, not very crowded. Service staff was efficient, used QR code to scan when we want to top up food for the buffet, so we didn't have to keep asking for the waiter. Ate Australian wagyu, good flavour. Not as flavourful as Japanese wagyu on my opinion, but it's still good beef! Anyway, the difference is really not huge and u can save about $15 per pax if u take Aussie I think?

Waited 40 Minutes For This!?! This is a Korean BBQ restaurant that calls itself Japanese. We had to wait a hard-to-believe 40 minutes fir some raw meat to BBQ ourselves. The food, when it arrives, is good enough although not top notch. The service staff are friendly, proactive and efficient. We wouldn’t go back as there are better and better-value BBQ restaurants located in more lively malls.

Gyu Kaku Lunch Special Had a tasty beef bento lunch special with soup and salad for $12.

4 Colour Set I don't usually eat KBBQs, but decided to pop by 8 Korean BBQ for Chope's June Exclusive Menu. For $88++, we got a 4 Colours Set (u.p. $68) inclusive of a choice of stew. We opted for the Army Stew (u.p. add-on $6). The pork belly came in huge slabs which the staff helped to cook and cut into bite sized pieces. We liked the Miso flavour the most out of the four we chose, the others being Herb, Garlic, and Kalbi. As for the Army Stew, it was decent but nothing outstanding. Lots of ingredients like kimchi, luncheon meat, and chicken pieces inside though. There were also Jumeokbap (u.p. $9), Kimchi Corn Cheese (u.p. $16), and 3 drinks (u.p. $2 each). Overall a hearty meal and we were more than satisfied.

𝟖 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬 𝐒𝐞𝐭 ($𝟗𝟖), 𝐊𝐢𝐦𝐜𝐡𝐢 𝐏𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐚𝐤𝐞 ($𝟐𝟖) 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐀𝐫𝐦𝐲 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐰 ($𝟐𝟒) What a glorious KBBQ meal i had at 8korean a while ago! Finally visited and saw what the hype was all about!! We got their signature 8 colours set (which was pork belly set of 8 different flavours - original, garlic, herb, red pepper, wine, curry and miso). Honestly, halfway into the meal i couldn’t tell which flavour was what - there wasnt any explanation by the staff too so all based on feels and guesses!! Certain flavours shone more than the others like garlic and red pepper. While the rest did taste different from each other, I couldn’t really recognise the flavours too. BUT was an experience!! Portion was rather little though - each row (as pictured) = one flavour! Special shoutout to the BANCHAN especially the freeflow kimchi that was grilled :”) Also, the staff helped with all the cooking which was LOVELY. I loved the kimchi pancake so much!!!!!!!! The edges were EXTRA crispy and the pancake itself was chewy with the crunchiness of the kimchi itself :9 One of the best pancakes… really… (apologies for kimchi pancake photo - too eager to eat anyhow take photo) We ordered army stew too, which i remembered it to be really good as well (perhaps didn’t stand out as much as the pork and pancake) but the broth was comforting with a kick, coupled with the chewy ramen noodles to accompany our meal.

8-Colour Set The 8-Colour Set ($98) from 8 Korean BBQ comes with pork belly in 8 different flavours (i.e. original, wine, ginseng, garlic, herb, curry, miso, red pepper), a stew of your choice and side dishes. The different flavours are not that distinct but nonetheless, the pork belly is quite delicious! The ratio of fat and meat is balanced, and the pork belly is slightly crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. The tangy grilled kimchi helps keep the greasiness of the pork belly at bay. The Seafood Soft Tofu Stew (top up $6) is slightly spicy and pretty flavourful as well. Even without rice, this set is super filling for 3 pax! PSA: There is 10% - 30% discount if your purchase a cash voucher on Chope:)

Japanese leek, marinated trout roe, salted kelp, oyster emulsion (part of the $38 3-course lunch set) Umami and rich, the Japanese leek crowned with marinated trout roe, salted kelp, and oyster emulsion ($16/ ala carte) was a wonderful starter too (especially if you like leeks). An intriguing mix with the sweet charred greens, creamy sauce and briny pops of ikura.

Orzo pasta, Angus beef cheek, celtuce, garlic confit, and celeriac puree ($38 3-course lunch set) Lunched in style at Lumo. All for their $38 3-course lunch set, I particularly enjoyed the Orzo pasta with Angus beef cheek, celtuce, garlic confit, and celeriac puree ($23/ ala carte). My first time having the small, flat, oval, grain-shaped pasta and I am in love. With a pleasant gentle chew, the delicate and smooth pasta managed to soak up the all-great savoury, garlicky flavours. So comforting and surprisingly hearty. The beef bits were also fork-tender and not gamey. What’s more, the super nutty, celery-like flavour of the celeriac puree was very complementary.

Atas dinz place Recommended dish 1) Ice plant- it has a very nice texture to it. Interesting dish! 2) Burnt cheesecake- im a fan of burnt cheesecake and this cheesecake definitely didnt disappoint! But it is on the pricier end! 3) Smoked cod fish liver dish- went really well with bread 4) The lumo- sweet!

2/5 Hassle-back Potato 2/5 Cheese Balls 2/5 Lamb Rack 2/5 Butter Cake 3/4

Date night worthy! Been hearing alot of buzz on this hip and trendy join run by young chefs, so being hip and trendy myself I obviously had to join the crowd. The restaurant was dark and atmospheric, though the tables were a little too close such that I could clearly hear the pair next to me conversing. Service was very friendly and attentive though, they enthusiastically explained the menu items when we said it was out first time. Started off with the famous Milk Buns ($8) - pillowy with a hint of milkyness, and made even better with the Sour Cream & Onion butter that came with it. Sooo good that we asked for another serving of the butter. Next was the Duck Menchikatsu ($17) and the Hasselback & Crack ($14). Menchikatsu was perfectly breaded and crisp, packed with shreds of juicy duck meat, which tasted even better with the spring onion aioli. As for the Hasselback, the potato itself was already delicious with a satisfying crunchy exterior and a fluffy inside. The accompanying sauce was, as the staff described, an homage to the Big Mac sauce but it became too heavy after a while and we switched back to the milky bun's butter instead. At this point, we were already stuffed but still looking forward to our mains, the Holy Molee ($34), which was a slab of seabass - crispy skin and all - with an indian curry-inspired sauce and a side of refreshing cucumber & mint salad to lend some tartness to the spice. Seabass was fresh and perfectly cooked, and the sauce leaned more on the tomatoey side so not as spicy as expected. Overall, this dish was nicely executed. Overall, love the vibes and the upbeat-ness of the staff. While the food wasn't 'wow', it'll definitely check most boxes and you'll probably leave with a good experience. As for me, I will definitely return to try their Butter Cake that I missed out on!

Let’s Not Compare Apples To Berries-Wait What? @pilot.sg run of divine dishes doesn’t just end at the big plates (mains), their fantastic form carries over to the deceptively simple sounding desserts. ⠀ The dessert on the specials menu, which was the Apples & Berries ($15++) is equally simple yet equally satisfying. Poached apples are married to a mascarpone berry compote, candied walnuts and milk ice cream for a perfect finale to a delightful dinner. All the vital textures and flavours are represented here: sweet, sour and salty are accompanied by crunchy, creamy, crisp and tender textures to maximise engagement with your whole palate.⠀ ⠀ Even though Pilot is a little out of the way, I can definitely see myself flying down here a couple more times to dine at this small but superb restaurant.

Decent buffet with just some misses Finally had a chance to dine at @limesingapore for their weekend lunch buffet ($78++) and it's definitely pretty decent with just some misses! The highlight got to be their seafood selection, with several exquisite items such as freshly shucked oysters, Boston lobsters and snow crab legs. The oysters were fantastic; juicy, succulent with fresh seafood savouriness. The crab legs were meaty, fresh and naturally salty. For many buffets, they don't do their roast beef right. However, the rendition at Lime hits differently as it was surprisingly tender with a good beefy flavour. One of my favourites was actually their Cheese Wheel Pasta, it was so creamy, rich, cheesy and the pasta was al dente. Actually went to take 3 portions in total! Cakes were mostly good, as they were rich and moist. And as all buffets, they have their misses. The sashimi here was really not good, especially their tuna. The other Japanese items like sushi were really forgettable. Ice cream selections were just too frozen hard to grab anything. Nonetheless, this is still a decent buffet to go for your celebrations. With a beautiful ambience, I believe it is date night worthy!

Food feaasstttt! Brought my family there for the dinner buffet. Enjoy the variety of dishes but the cold seafood section is very sad. Anyway, the crepe, the chicken rice, the laksa and kueh pie tee were yummy! Overall, ambience and service was good.

Lime Restaurant’s LobsterFest Buffet [$166/Adult] Lime Restaurant’s annual LobsterFest is on till 13 Aug, with a whole line-up of unlimited servings of lobsters. My favourite was their Kam Heong Lobster, done very fragrant with the generous use of savoury dried shrimps and curry leaves. Meat was firm, fresh and juicy! Price includes unlimited servings of beer, chilled juices, specialty coffee and tea.

A little piece of Cuba, no? Yes, it's called the Cubano sandwich but no, it does not (technically) originate from Cuba! The Cubano sandwich apparently originated from cafes catering to Cuban immigrant workers in Florida in the mid-19th century and added their own Cuban twist to the ham and cheese sandwich. It will usually feature ham, roast pork, Swiss cheese, pickles and mustard layered between Cuban bread which is then toasted in a sandwich press known as a plancha (essentially a griddle). The end result is a panini-like sandwich with thin papery toasted crust and a soft moist centre. Cuba Libre serves a good hearty Cubano sandwich with roasted pork, smoked ham, bacon, gherkins, mozzarella cheese, and a generous portion of fries on the side. I was warned that most people struggle to finish this dish and it was indeed generously portioned and tasty. It did seem rather weird to have a sandwich with mojitos but I thought they went well with each other. I also tried a little of their newest creation - ropa vieja, a traditional Cuban stew made from shredded slow cooked flank steak served with black beans and rice. I ain't a fan of beans in general and the beef stew was a little heavy on salt but the beef was tender and it did go well with the rice. Last but not least, special thanks to the folks at Cuba Libre for the invite. If you are looking for somewhere with hearty pub grub to knock back a few (stiff) solid mojito and enjoy the live band, do check out Cuba Libre!

(Virgin) Mojitos It did seem rather serendipitous that the good folks from Cuba Libre (which aptly stands for Free Cuba!) hosted a bunch of us for a #BURPPLE #EATUP on the very day the govt restrictions on live entertainment were lifted. Cuba Libre is a bistro bar that specialises in Latin American styled pub grub. To start off the meal, we were served a huge mason jar of mojito and in my case, they very kindly conjured a virgin mojito cos #nodrinkdrivingpls. The drink was refreshingly sweet with a nice strong hint of mint and lime. As for the adult (read: alcoholic) version, I was told that they definitely did not go easy on the rum!

Classic Mojito We heard about the highly-raved mojitos at Cuba Libre and we decided to we had to try at least one today! We decided to go with a safe choice - the Classic Mojito. Although the drink costs $28++, the serving size was huge and it was almost double the size of the mojitos served in other restaurants. It's definitely enough for sharing between two persons. The mojito was really minty and the mint flavour gets pretty strong towards the bottom of the cup. There was a piece of sugarcane immersed in the drink as well, which gave it a slight sweetness. However, we felt that the mojito here did not really have much rum in it as we could not taste much alcohol; on the bright side, this would be a light and refreshing drink for many. Would be interested to try their other mojitos (e.g., lychee mojito) in future! We were seated outside and unfortunately, we were right beside the loudspeaker which was blasting music throughout our meal. Hence, it was a little difficult to have a conversation over our food as Spanish songs were being blasted right beside our ears. We would probably try to get a seat that is further from the loudspeaker in future. :(

Chili crab Delicious

Award-Winning Chilli Crab ($108++ for 1kg) 🦀 Award-Winning Chilli Crab ($108++ for 1kg). Of course we had to try their renowned chilli crab, especially for first-timers like us. I’m not sure if I just haven’t had my chilli crab fix for a very long time before this, but it’s really good as well. Sauce could be watered down a bit, but the mantou buns ($0.80++ each) already balance it

Australian Lobster and Glass VermicellI Braised with "Sha Cha' Sauce in Claypot ($24.80++/100g) 🦞Australian Lobster and Glass VermicellI Braised with "Sha Cha' Sauce in Claypot ($24.80++/100g). There’s an ongoing 50% off promo for this AU lobster so we opted for this instead of the Boston one ($13.80++/100g). We weren’t supposed to order this but the nearby table had it and it smelled so goooood. It didn’t disappont at all! This is the best dish for me. Sauce is very savoury and sweet. Lobster, though teeny-bit overcooked for me, is really good as well. 800g was just enough for the 5 of us. The vermicelli felt like bottomless, there’s just too much 😂
