Guiding you to good food & best restaurants in Singapore

Food was pretty decent! We went in with lower expectations after reading the reviews, but Eggslut proved us wrong.

We ordered the Fairfax, Slut & Guacho which were probably the best things on the menu.

Located in Bishan, find this newly opened ice cream cafe serving classic scoops of ice cream and specialty waffles. Get a scoop of ice cream ($3.80) paired with their Red Velvet Waffles ($5) or order the Waffles Remix ($4.80) for the best of both worlds — Original + Red Velvet. Don't miss out on their take of the classic affogato with their Valentino Coffee ($5.50).

*Eligible for takeaway till 30 June 2021.

My kind of squid game.🔴🔺🔲
Just admire at this glowing black beauty radiating out, isn't it beautiful?🥺
Over a base of buttery saffron cream, lies the glorious squid ink spaghetti; paired with lightly seasoned sauteed spinach and pan-seared Hokkaido scallop, sprinkled with salted egg yolk crumb, then decorated with parsley & flowers.
I like how every strand of spaghetti noodle is coated evenly and thoroughly with squid ink to achieve a balance flavour. The buttery cream just add an extra oomph to it. Scallop was juicy and tender too.

We went straight for the Pork Loin Set ($18.90) that came with free flow Niigata rice and crunchy cabbage. To enjoy tonkatsu like a pro, we first grind the roasted sesame seeds using the wooden pestle before mixing in with the tonkatsu sauce till it becomes a paste mixture. This sauce is best for dipping with the perfectly fried pork that is juicy and tender on its own. For the cabbage, we added a few drops of the wafu dressing for the nice tangy balance while the accompanying tonjiru soup is the tonkatsu broth that has a hint of yuzu in it.

This was an easy favourite for us! Rice noodles with grilled pork, pork patties made with minced pork and pork belly, as well as the traditional sides of pickles, herbs and shredded vegetables. The charred meats were marinated in a light tangy mix of fish sauce and lemongrass which made it refreshing to have.

Thank you @mrspho for having us and @brandcellar for the kind invite! ✨

Five Spice Butter Quail [$18.90]

Our tasting portion came with 1 quail, but the original portion has 2. While it’s a unique dish, a pity we found this more plain and the meat was a tad too dry - got to make sure to squeeze the lime over the quail and have the meat with the pepper-salt.

Thank you @mrspho for having us and @brandcellar for the kind invite! ✨

•HOSTED TASTING•

Made using Vietnamese crystal pomelo, fresh tiger prawns and fresh herbs, the pomelo salad indeed was a refreshing entree to start off the dinner with dishes that were heavier on the palette. I enjoyed the sweetness of the pulpy pomelo with the tiger prawns which had already been cut into pieces, although I would have preferred them to be juicier. The sprinkling of chopped peanuts, fried shallots and coriander elevated the overall aroma.

Thank you @burpple for the invitation and @mrspho for hosting us!

However, all the taste and flavour made up for it, especially the well executed noodles and the renowned fish dumplings. The noodles were coated in a nice umami mixture and I even saw chopped garlic bits at the bottom with some dried ebi and pork lard bits topped as a finishing touch as well. The star of the show has got to be the handmade fish dumpling that came with it with a chewy skin texture and a filling made with fish and pork. I would have wished for more but sadly this bowl only had a single fish dumpling that was excellent, a fishball that had a nice bounce to it, a meatball that was passable and a taupok that I would not have missed it if it wasn’t there. If I were to return, I will definitely go straight for the fish dumpling noodle.
