Allow me to paint you a picture: you and your partner are on board the Singapore Flyer. You enjoy a beautiful 360-degree view of the skyline from the comfort of your air-conditioned glass cabin, possibly with a wine in hand. A dedicated butler is at your service, ever ready to...
Here’s one dessert that I love most in the world – chocolate lava cake. Not even a bellyful of pork ribs and buffalo wings can keep me from wanting it once the craving kicks in! It just so happens that we were in the vicinity of Ricciotti Italian Deli &...
If you enjoy eating all kinds of Japanese food, jot down this place in your address book. The Japanese Gourmet Town at VivoCity houses three restaurants from three cities under one roof! There’s Ajisen Ramen (from Kyushu), Botejyu Okonomiyaki (from Osaka) and Sapporo Curry Yoshimi (from Hokkaido). How convenient that...
I’ll admit it – I’m crazy about beer. And I especially have a weak spot for Belgian beer. One of the best places to enjoy it would be Brussels Sprouts at Mohamed Sultan Road. This Belgian bar-restaurant boasts over 70 different kinds of beer. From malty full-bodied to light fruity,...

Credit Seriously, nothing beats having a stress-free day drinking beer by the sea. Since...
In a recent post, I raved about the riverside Indonesian BBQ stall in Plaza Singapura. This is a stall I have been patronising for 5 to 6 years and I swear to god they have the best grilled chicken anywhere! After learning that the riverside Indonesian restaurant opposite Clarke Quay...
I bid farewell to my good friend, Fernando, yesterday. He would be doing his Master’s at the Vancouver Film School. That’s pretty cool, isn’t it? He’s one of the very few talented people I know that’s in the field of design, and one of the few friends that actually understand...
At Sho-U, one of the newest Japanese restaurants in town, the thing that strikes visitors the most would probably be its unique design. Don’t get me wrong though, the food at this contemporary Japanese fine-dining establishment is nothing short of excellent. But being a sucker for aesthetics (something that Singapore...
I must have eaten in three out of every four dining establishments at VivoCity. Yes, that is how often I go to that place. I would probably exhaust their dining options soon! But then again, new restaurants pop up every so often, such as The Mussel Guys. “The Mussel Guys”....
