Still my favourite choice. Millefeuille Pancake [4 for $7.90, 8 for $11.90] Fluffy and wobbly 🥞

| 🥞 It’s so Fluffy I’m gonna Eat them All ！ ... ~ · Mango Pancake (4 pieces) - $14.40 · The brand opens its first overseas outlet in Singapore, with so much hype, so be prepared to Q. When severed, first thing I noticed is the pancakes are as thick as I thought it would be and the cream & fruits wasn’t as overflowing as per their photos. First bite into the pancake and I was quite blown away. The texture was so soft and fluffy! Pancakes melts in your mouth, with the slightly sour mango cubes the dessert become very refreshing. The fresh Hokkaido Cream adds smoothness in every mouth. The pancakes are pale in taste, so it will be great if they are more generous in fruit topping & sauces, as I always desire my desserts to be sweet sweet in every bite. In future, I would consider ordering the cheaper plain millefeuille pancakes and pair it with a lot of maple syrup, simple and delicious · Belle-Ville Pancake Cafe @pancakecafe_belleville

Strawberry And Mixed Berry Pancake ($14.40++) Was torn between this and caramelised apples initially as they seemed to be the best sellers for the day! Eventually settled for this because I wasn't sure if caramelised apples would be a Lil too sweet for my liking. This turned out to be my wisest decision for the day! Ordered 4 pancakes only as dinner was just an hour away😛 Loved how fluffy and soft pancakes were and how they were full of egginess, both in flavour and scent. The cream was light with subtle sweetness to complement the citrussy from the berries. Enjoyed the drizzle of chocolate sauce that added another layer of flavours to the pancakes. Though it got really messy halfway, it was a lovely mess:)

Genmaicha & Kuromitsu Soft Serve Signature Soft Serve with Genmaicha. I love the roasted brown rice tea but the flavour isn’t as intense as I like Since I used the buy 1 get 1 free Fave coupon at $4.50, I also got the Kuromitsu Soft Serve which is black sugar with black vinegar sauce. I actually prefer this as it’s sweet and sour Both have cornflakes for some crunch

Soft and fluffy baked donuts Healthy, soft and fluffy baked donuts! It’s unlike any other donuts I’ve tried. Just so so good especially when eaten warm! 😋 Original ($1.90), Chocolate, Matcha and Sweet Potato (all at $2.20 each, additional $0.30 for chocolate chips). I bought the assorted box of 6 (regular) at $12.50 (3 matcha, 1 of each other flavours). It’s more of a cake texture. My fav has to be Matcha! It is so fragrant! Followed by original, chocolate and sweet potato (this tastes just like original so don’t waste $0.30)

Hot Yuzu Kurozu with Honey & Original Donut Kurozu’s (Japanese Black vinegar) benefits: * Breaks down fat and lowers cholesterol * Relieves stress and body fatigue * Detoxifies the liver * Boosts metabolism * Promotes digestion and reduces constipation * Stabilises blood pressure and glucose levels * Strengthens immune system Currently they having a few bundles promotion. This is the $3.90 set (but topped up to change from Hot Kurozu with Honey to Hot Yuzu Kurozu with Honey. Comes with a original donut. The drink is tangy but so nice! I do drink apple cider vinegar sometimes so the sourness isn’t a problem for me.

Hojicha Matcha Latte Tried the hojicha matcha latte and it was good! Strong flavour, not too sweet as there’s hojicha. It’s v fragrant. I think it’s the best matcha latte I’ve tried

Matcha Cake vs Goma Cake. My vote go to Goma Cake. The strong flavour of black sesame balance well with the sweetness of the cake. Not too sweet. Matcha cake too sweet and too dry for me. I prefer softer texture for the cake.. 💰$7.50. 📍Hvala Chijmes. 30 Victoria Street.

Goma Cake & Matcha Cake $7.50 each Matcha cake with azuki. Love the bitterness of the cake! The thin layer of azuki bean paste brings just the right amount of sweetness to the cake. It’s slightly dry especially the parts without the matcha sauce. Goma sliced cake is black sesame flavour. Very fragrant and flavourful! The best black sesame cake I’ve had. 👍🏻

Avocado And Eggs Food portion is just nice but perhaps not enough for a guy. This cafe is really huge and I love the flat white here.

Duck gnocchi [$21+] . . Comprising of duck confit ragout, button mushrooms and Parmesan, this duck gnocchi is only available on the dinner menu (5-9pm). As of my favourite pasta types, the gnocchi came with a soft and chewy, mochi-like texture that’s tossed in a flavourful, tangy and well-braised duck confit ragout sauce. Not the best gnocchi I’ve had though, with my personal favourite still the Mentaiko gnocchi from Kabe No Ana. Generous portion of thinly shredded tender duck confit are embedded within the thick and flavourful ragout, along with chewy and juicy button mushrooms. The sauce might get overwhelmingly salty when eaten in silo but when paired with the chewy, tiny pieces of dumpling-shaped pasta, it was a great combination that made me wipe out entire plate clean! ✨ . . . . #burpple #fiveoaracoffeeroaster

Weekends are meant for eggs and brunches. Here's my truffle eggs benedict from @focr.sg, amazing amazing space with pretty decent brunch fare. Can't wait to be back again! Every new cafe opening excited me these days because like becoming lesser and lesser and lesser ah. 😭

Mint and Feta Dip ($9+) A really light and tasty dip. The mix of basil and mint makes this really refreshing. Perfect to eat with the sourdough!

Garlic Shrimps ($12) As simple as it sounds, this dish is pretty phenomenal. The high temperature of the wood-fired oven forces natural juices of out these shrimps, allowing them to cook in their own broth. The result? A bowl of firm-textured prawns bathing in a savoury, prawn gravy. Grab more bread, you'll not want those addictive gravy to go to waste.

Pulled Lamb in Betel Leaves ($12) I like how this dish was presented in such a rustic manner - untidy chunks of pulled lamb placed over a bed of Greek yogurt-slapped roasted potatoes. With the absence of a strong gamey taste, along with a slight crispy skin, the lamb may be more appealing to the people who used to shun it. The ingredients lying underneath were strong supporting characters too, for the tartness of the yogurt complemented the starchy potatoes to elevate the flavour of the otherwise bland carbohydrates.

Frozen S’more Delight! The Dark Gallery’s take on the famous Dominique Ansel frozen s’more was a decadent treat. A layer of slightly charred marshmallow surrounded the inner chocolate core, made up of a hard chocolate shell and dark chocolate ice cream center. It was initially quite difficult to cut into the s’more as the hard chocolate shell was hard to break into. However, the dark chocolate ice cream was rich and delicious, and complemented the sweet marshmallow well.

Signature Hot Chocolate I guess signature hot chocolate wins the black coffee this time round.

Dark Chocolate Ice Cream Dark chocolate 80% and dark chocolate mint in chocolate waffle bowl $8.50+$1 Their chocolate ice cream choices are insane! I go with the darkest which is not too bitter for my liking. The mint is great!

The antidote to boring CBD lunches. This lobster roll at $16 is unreasonably good value-for-money with its chunky lobster meat and pillowy bread. Comes with chips at the side. Note: This is more of a takeaway place than dine-in.

Lobster Rolls With A View Three options - original, Connecticut, cheesy! I got the original roll where the condiments were light and the flavour of the lobsters could stand out. The store is more for takeaway and there isnt much seating space within the tiny building too. Ended up standing along the bridge which was not too bad as it was breezy. Great for a quick lunch if you’re also looking to satisfy a lobster craving!

Chunky’s Connecticut Coated and toasted with melted butter sauce, be ready to get buttery. 。 Nestled at the corner of level 2 of Oxley Tower, this is a new lobster roll shack that aims to make seafood affordable for everyone! As seats are very limited, it will be best to do a takeaway instead during peak hours. 。 Out of the 3 types of lobster rolls offered, I went for the roll that came with 90g of buttery Canadian lobster meat. Sandwiched between the buttered brioche buns, the generous serving of lobster meat chunks were really fresh and succulent. Though I was taken away by the sweetness and juiciness of the lobster meat, I felt that it could be tastier. Personal preference I guess 😄. 。 At just $16 nett, what more can I ask for? P.S. Get a bowl of lobster bisque for a complete experience. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When at Steakville, you eat steak. Specializing in their steaks, the restaurants aims to bring in seasonal cuts from different producing countries so that diners will have a unique experience each time they patronize. Having a motto of bringing farm to table, Steakville aims to deliver a meal of quality and honesty. Pictured is the Signature Hangar Steak that will set you back at only $15 (we had an additional 150gms for a topup of $13); a perfectly seared 150gms of lean beef served simply with a house leaf salad, truffle mustard and Maldon seasalt, which the latter acts as an enhancer to further bring out the natural flavours of the beef. For a different cut and with a little bit of fats, you can also opt for the Hunter’s Ribeye Steak ($24); a juicer steak that brings a different flavour to the table. _________________ Steakville Address: 91, Bencoolen Street, Sunshine Plaza, Unit 01-56, Singapore 189652

From its humble beginnings till now, I have lost count at how many times I have visited then Betterfield and now Steakville craving for a slab of juicy steak at a price that’s almost unbeatable. Besides the steak, Chef Shaun also does excellent appetizers and at this new concept, he has launched the Truffle Cheese Wedges ($14). Don’t discount these wedges as your regular run-of-the-mill bar snacks as here at Steakville, it has been pimped up with a drizzle of truffle oil before doused generously with nacho cheese and truffle mayonnaise. A perfect sharing starter before the main highlight that’s to come thereafter. _________________ Steakville Address: 91, Bencoolen Street, Sunshine Plaza, Unit 01-56, Singapore 189652

Affordable Steaks that are a Cut Above the Rest! Steakville’s Signature Hanger Steak - The beef was incredibly juicy, moist and packed full of flavour. Read more: https://www.misstamchiak.com/steakville/

Crispy Bun With butter and condensed milk. Simple stuff but so good on that toasted fluffy bun!

Reminiscing HK We might have over ordered again! Didn't manage to finish everything for sure. Appreciated that the waitress advised us to stick with these - almost ordered another curry dish which we definitely wouldn't have room for, given the portion sizes

Fish Puff Mixian Soup Simple and good! Reminds us of the one in HK but served with different ingredients. I really liked the peppery soup.

Soul Silders ($12.90) 🔥LIT!🔥You do not want to mess with the spice here. Their sliders ended up as one of our favs with juicy boneless fried chicken, slathered in pink mayo, coleslaw and pickles, you’re not leaving without a mess on your hands. All their chicken here is given the good ol’ southern hospitality; serving up Nashville style buttermilk fried chicken. Their signature Nashville Hot Chicken also comes in three levels of spice; mild, extra and insane. I found the extra was just within my heat tolerance, but the aptly named insane had us frantically chugging milkshakes and profusely sweating, definitely not for the faint hearted. 😅

Can You Handle Their Insanely Spicy Fried Chicken? (Quarter: $9.90 / Half: $18.90 / 3 Wings: $10.90) I teared up when I ate this.... from pain 😂😂😂. But thankfully, their thick and creamy Vanilla Milkshake ($5.90) is a godsend of a fire extinguisher. The “Insane Hotness” level of the “Nashville Style Hot Chicken” here is an accurate label because the seasoning for that includes the “world’s hottest chili pepper” and it causes agony in all the soft parts of the mouth (when my tongue recovers, I might be able to talk about my experience but for now, I shall stick to typing 😝😅). You should only get this if you can handle intense spiciness or if you are a true masochist. Otherwise, picking the “Mild” or “Extra” level for their CHIX HOT is probably wiser because you can enjoy their crispy-on-the-outside, juicy-on-the-inside goodness properly. This Muslim-owned eatery also offers a saner “Original” style which is buttermilk fried chicken seasoned with their own take on New Orleans-inspired “Soul Spice”. For the sides, you’ll be glad to know there are three available: “Bob’s Baked Beans”, “Creamy Tangy Slaw” and “Fries”, and they are priced at $2.90 each.

Strutting into the space of the now defunct @the_lab_sg is @chixhotchicken - serving fried chicken 🍗 with dry spice rub. Come here to test your heat tolerance as there are 3 spice levels - Mild, extra and insane hotness! I totally died at the extra hotness level and need many many cups of water to extinguish the flame in my mouth! Which made it a must to order their creamy and thick Chix Milk Shake ($5.90)! 🤣 Pictured is the innocent (no heat involved thankfully) Soul Sliders ($12.90) - crunchy batter, rolled in their soul spiced paired with slaw and pickles which makes a very good combination!

Shoyu Hamaguri Soup Ramen Very tasty and flavourful broth. Best in Singapore yet? Will come back soon.

Shoyu Hamaguri Soup Signature Reviving my jaded palate for all things truffle, I finally got down to trying Konjiki Hototogisu and their Shoyu Hamaguri Soup Signature ($14.90 without egg, $16.90 with egg) may be the best one yet. A lip-smacking blend of Hamaguri clams, pork bone, and Japanese dashi; the already umami stock gets a boost from the garnish of Tartufata (black truffle paste), Porcini Oil and Porcini flakes - making up their acclaimed Triple Soup. Lighter and more delicate in taste than expected, be sure to give the complex Shoyu-based broth a good mix after the the initial sips to get that prefect balance of earthy, savoury and sweet too. Very drinkable indeed; the alluring waft of truffle was also subtle without overwhelming the other ingredients but transforming and adding a nice depth to the bowl. And soaking up the full-bodied yet clear taste of the soup, the specially imported whole-grain noodles were a great match-up and cooked to al dente perfection. What’s more, between the satisfying slurps of ramen, you can’t forget their signature Sous-Vide Cha Shu and Thick Belly Cha Shu. Tender and well-seasoned, their thin pork slices were thankfully not too salty and just enough to bring out the flavours of the slightly sweetish marinate.

Shoyu Hamaguri Soup Ramen  First time having buckwheat noodles in a ramen. love the pork belly and chashu. My friend tried the Tonkotsu Smoke and Pepper Ramen which I had a few mouthfuls and the broth was peppery (duh!) yet not overwhelming. Few things to note - As they are newly opened,check their Facebook for opening hours. - Ramen doesn't come with an egg. Egg cost $2.

Candied Bacon Waffle ($14.5) Really love their waffles. This one really is one of the unhealthier waffles, candied bacon, drenched in maple, sooo good 4.75/5

Salted Caramel Waffle The waffle came nice and hot, it was crispy just the way I liked it, it had some salty caramel sauce although I really appreciate it if I had more of it but it was sufficient, just not enough to make it decadent. The vanilla ice cream was well paired with the waffle. To balance the sweetness if we had some diced fruit like strawberries would cut through and cleanse the palette. Overall great for my sweet tooth, not good for the waistline. But love it anyway. Great place for a meeting on a weekday.

Putting my best “food” forward for the start of the second half of 2018! Seems like my third Croissant 🥐 post this year from @columbuscoffeeco - but finally found the best combination! Order their Mushroom on Sourdough ($14) but change the sourdough to their croissant and add on Scrambled eggs ($3)!
