Guiding you to good food & best restaurants in Singapore

We ordered this bc the menu didn't state that there will be cream (it only states bacon, egg yolk, and cheese), but it was clearly a cream carbonara, not the authentic type with creaminess stemming only from the egg yolk & cheese, sad. Was quite mediocre, even the bacon could have been of a better quality. Missing the super good carbonara from Casa Tartufo.

Got Cream Onion Chicken, Chir Cheese Fries Tower and a jug of Blue Sky Tok Tok (Alc)! Food was delicious and the drink was light and really went well with the food. The atmosphere is also casual and makes a nice place for a cosy chat!

This Indonesian restaurant along Joo Chiat Road dishes out an extensive range of mouth watering Indonesian cuisine in a family dining concept setting.

The dishes we had were so good. We had their Perkedel, Ikan Bakar served with sambal, Ayam Bakar served with lemongrass chilli salsa and Nasi Goreng Ayam. Their fish and chicken were so fresh and tender. The fish was crisp on the outside with that little charred flavors and sweet and fresh on the inside. The chicken was well marinated with a layer of balinese spice and grilled to tenderness. The meat was still moist and tender and a bite into it together with the lemongrass chilli salsa gave it the additional oomph. You don’t feel it at the start but it creeps into your throat thereafter. The fried rice was goood too. It’s unlike the straightforward taste of a garlic fried rice but that lingering fried garlic taste that seems to be there yet not there making the dish so enticing and leaving you yearning for more.

Beside the grilled chicken and seafood, their dishes on average are affordable priced below $15. Pretty good value given the quality of food.

🌞 Was at this hawker centre on Saturday and came across this stall; saw a few people eating this so decided to give it a try. Ordered the S$5 portion.

Dish was tasty and its the saucy type which I prefer. My parents who also tried it said its not bad and that the chilli is nice. Prawns were fresh, came with some crispy fried pork lard.

Can eat this again if I'm in the area 👏👏

This stall was originally selling chicken rice but now selling Hokkien Mee?

Had their Salted Egg Chicken Rice for dinner recently, and it was good! The chicken came nicely coated with a generous amount of thick and creamy salted egg sauce that was well-balanced without being jelak (perhaps the few pieces of keropok helped cut out some of those richness too). Will definitely be back again for this! Read that the owners here used to be from the famous Taste Good a few stalls down, but it does not really matter to me as the food is more important! Haha!

Decided to have the kway chap here for breakfast recently after walking past this stall so many times on my way to work. The kway chap was pretty good overall - the kway was not clumpy, and the soup had a clean herbaceous taste! As for the ingredients, they were tasty and parts like the intestines were thoroughly cleaned so there’s no smell! They are actually famous for their duck rice, so will try that next time!

Butter Bread, opened by an ex-Shangri-La chief baker, offers artisanal croissants baked using butter specially imported from France. It opens from 1 pm till sold out, and is so popular that a queue had already formed when I was there at around 12.50 pm. 

Instead of the standard Butter Croissant, I picked the 𝗛𝗮𝗺 & 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗖𝗿𝗼𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗻𝘁 ($4.50). It lived up to expectations. Its inviting buttery fragrance whetted my appetite, before its flakey, crispy texture delighted by taste buds. The addition of the ham and cheese made it even more satisfying. 

At $4 each, I initially baulked at the price of the 𝗘𝗴𝗴 𝗧𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗖𝗿𝗼𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗻𝘁, but once I bit into it, it was so worth it. Instead of the traditional crumbly tart shell, this egg tart has a croissant-like pastry encasing the egg custard. The pastry was immaculate while the soft and smooth egg custard was divine. It wasn't overly sweet, which was a bonus.

The last item we tried was the 𝗛𝗼𝗷𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗮 𝗛𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝗠𝗼𝗰𝗵𝗶 𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗲 ($4.50). The scintillating scent of the hojicha was immediately apparent, and its crumbly texture looked promising. However I found it too dense and dry, thus it was our least favourite item.

Despite being a takeaway-only unit and its prices being higher than most other bakeries, Butter Bread's popularity is testament to its high quality bakes. I'll be back to try its other items.

Set eligible for Burpple 1-for-1
Ordered a Mentaiyaki Kaisendon & Unagi Don set
($38.49 after GST and service charge)
Set includes:
-Mentaiyaki Kaisendon
-Unagi Don
-2 x Salad
-2 x Hot/Iced Tea
-2 x Miso Soup
-4 x Chicken Yakitori sticks

3.5⭐️ Mentaiyaki Kaisendon
Alot of meat which I can find in the bowl like prawn, raw salmon, raw tuna, mock abalone (Dont know if there is scallops in it). The bowl is covered with charred mentaiko sauce which is too over-powering on the last few bites. It is quite worth it for the portion given.

3.5⭐️ Unagi Don
Taste of unagi was all right but the portion is a little small. The bowl includes a slice of tamago, onsen egg and some seaweed. But for the given price, I would prefer to order their diced sashimi bowl.

4⭐️ Yakitori
Kind of love the bite to the yakitori. Soft and tender like a satay and is well-coated with the given sauce.

Miso Soup
Quite flavourful. Contains seaweed, tofu, radish and mushrooms.

Salad
Lettuce, Cherry tomato in sesame sauce

Overall, the set meal has quite a number of contrast dishes and is very filling. But if without Burpple 1-for-1, around $38 for one set is quite pricey.
