SQUISITO @ bugis

husband's never ending craving for pizza 🍕.. few mths alr i think.. so he found this pizza place, one of many shophouses in the many heritage building.. and here we are to satisfy his craving
i must say, its really nice! i like the crust especially... abit of charcoal smell, and the well toasted crust
margherita pizza 🍕 @ $16+
size is enough to share for 2 small eaters

i must say, its really nice! i like the crust especially... abit of charcoal smell, and the well toasted.. it's not normal bread, abit chewy type
thin thin crust
Gnocchi al tarfufo @ $22+
Gnocchi is their signature... Made of mainly potato 🥔 sounds good...
it doesnt taste potato though... chewy, abit like mochi, but less sticky... 
thumbs up for the sauce.. creamy mushroom topped with truffle!

not really something tt we will come to eat again... But for pizza 🍕, yes!
heres the menu

space looks small but there's more seating at the 2nd level and it's a simple but nice place... Like the pics on the wall 😍
only service charges, no GST

XIN WANG @ amk hub

been sooooooo long since I eat xin wang... Here again cos we wanted Chinese food...
Food is nice.. seems to be better than the previous time I ate
seafood egg hor fun @ $11.90++
the hor fun is abit too hard... overall is average, my mum says it's nice
pork century egg porridge @ $5.50++
portion is really small.. belongs to dim sum category... but it's nice! Yes it's really good! especially topped with small fried fish
fish 🐟 tomato 🍅 spaghetti @ $12.90++
to me it's normal... Don't really like the spaghetti, seems like the same as home cooked.. but my dad enjoys it! 😉
fish is the same as breaded fish dish
breaded fish 🐟 @ $12.90++
nice fish fillet, hot and crispy.. some sides to choose from, but abit too potato today.. fries and baked potato.. both are good, but baked potato cannot be compared to Jack's place lah
heres the menu


also had soy milk @ $3.90++ it's good too! Got the thick soy taste... 👍🏼👍🏼 So good that we ordered another cup

overall, all of us have good reviews and looking forward to come back again!

ramen kiou








heres the menu







📍 23 Serangoon Central, NEX #B1-80 Singapore 556083
Newly renovated "Jap food street" at Nex

Some new restaurants... And it's long q as usual for a Fri evening...

This is one of the new restaurants, serving mostly ramen, fried rice, Don
We had this set meal for 2 @ $25.80++ with 2 mains, 1 side and 2 drinks

Tonkotsu kiou ramen ($14.50++).. nice thick soup, not too oily or salty, 2 piece char siew, onsen egg, "veg".. noodle is chewy
My husband actually prefers So ramen... But I prefer this... Soup base is thicker!
Chashu cube don ($9.90++).. Japanese rice with char siew and an egg.. it's not hot stone, so cannot compare with my favourite at Kallang Wave mall.. it's still good.. but find it too meaty and the meat is abit more on the salty side.. overall still good...
Gyoza is normal... It's actually more pan fried compared to others, making it nicer

The next time I will want to try the tomato soup base ramen with cheese 😁

Staycation hotel Royal Queens

using rediscoverSG voucher of $80, this is our first stayca... at HOTEL ROYAL QUEENS it cost $115 (before voucher) for a night stay w/o breakfast
clean toilet with basic toiletries
and a small bath tub.. but no rain shower though
not a very atas room, but still quite comfortable
TV with mediacorp channels and some international channels
a desk and a sofa
Our stayca few days ago at Royal Queens with our SG rediscovery voucher
Very convenient location, at Central area, 5-10mins walk to Bugis
Room is clean except for the wall lamp.. yes, dust so thick that I see
Overall the room is ok, with toiletries, bath tub, TV, king bed
But at a price of $100+, can't expect much... 
No breakfast, a small gym and small pool

Bugis, so much food to choose from and it's near Albert food centre!

7 eleven is just opposite, but I don't like the ice cream... Cookies and cream is like vanilla, chocolate royale has a weird taste.... So disappointed

#staycation #staycationsg #relax #sgrediscovers #sgdiscovery 


Tarts for our dinner cos of the lunch buffet, too full to eat main course so saw this shop at basement of bugis junction... Looks good! And taste good too!
Chocolate and banana $3.60 the banana is abit soft, prefer the chocolate on top
Coconut mango tart $3.40 yes, there coconut filling inside!
Lemon meringue $3.60 abit sourish and slightly too sweet but still like it

The tart is not the hard or "crispy" type... Abit too soft but still nice... 😋😋😋

One ++ point abt stayca is to enjoy breakfast!! Yes, definitely won't wake up early in the morning and travel for abt an hr for breakfast...
So here we are, early in the morning at Albert Centre, just opposite bugis street
packed on a Sat morning, and long q for quite a few stores... Chose this 2 stores

Carrot cake, looks good ya.. the white $2.50, quite normal... It's the black $3 tts nice! Sweet sauce and charcoal smell
There's 3 sizes, and both we had are small and the portion bus quite alot.. will definitely come back for the black one...

Chee Chong fun, 2pcs $2.. it's not really nice leh.. I see alot of ppl eating their yam kueh And charcoal fried bee hoon, but it's sold out le, at abt 9am+ it's does looks nice lah

Be prepared to q for at least 20mins each stall

Check out le, but still continue.... desserts as our lunch! Yes so full from the heavy breakfast

It's just across bugis junction, Korean bingsu shop, there's toast too!
Before 1pm and it's alr half taken... After awhile, it's full house.. yes at lunch time....
Lots of options to choose from, and we tried the Oreo bingso @ $15

Shoved ice till so fine, topped with thick Oreo cookies, white cream and the inside has oreo too!!! 😍😍😍😍
Will definitely come back to try the other flavors and also the toast

Dooki

We are back for more Korean buffet!
Kimchi, Korean fried chicken and Korean fried rice

Tried a different soup base today, signature soup extra mild spicy.. ok it's really not spicy at all haha but there's still chilli in there
Hmm, can't really tell what is the sauce made up of.. it's not bad, worth a try

Double portion of enoki mushroom, ramyeon, fish skewers, honey soy fried chicken, original fried chicken

Also had rice cake, sweet potato rice cake.. they are nice! Veg, clams, chicken, carrots, onions....

And end it with our favourite fried rice... Portion today is lesser.... But the staff didn't cook for us.... Have to admit that cooking it ourselves is really different... Yes though the ingredients and everything else is the same

Nice!!! But somehow not as satisfied  this time round.... cos of the fried rice? Or cos ate too many times? 🤔

After this, we are heading to staycation!
