A





Don't know what to eat alr.. so walk ard see see look look

And here we are..
They serves quite a variety.. pizza, pasta, sides, burgers, grills and variety of drinks too

We had
Garlic bread @ $9.90++
Abit disappointing.. it looks sooo nice! But turns out it's soft.. was expecting it to be crispy...

Salmon with mashed potato and salad 🥗 @ $23.90++
The salmon is nice! Very well seasoned and the skin is so nice too! Slightly more salty, but it won't be nice if it's not
Comes with brown sauce mixed with black pepper
Mashed potato is abit butter and not too wet, nice!

Hawaiian pizza 🍕 @ $23++
12inch and it's big!
Super thin crust, and feel it's under toasted.. both the crust and the ingredients

These are too much for 2... We only had a slice of pizza each and finished the rest 

Overall, feels abit overpriced.. and the food is so so... Only the salmon is nice but at a high cost

Claypot valley

Got quite a few recommendations for the claypot rice so here we are.. it's by a chef previously from Jumbo Group... So the seafood is a must try

We had
Seafood claypot pao fan @ $9.90++
A thumbs up for no msg!!! Yes the soup is so "seafoody" feels like steamboat soup
There's seafood, and rice

Signature spinach iberico pork claypot rice @ $9.90++
I prefer this... Like the "charcoaled" rice and the taste is good! Not too salty..
Portion is not very big, just nice for me.. there's a 2 pax portion too.. same pot size but will filled full

Tamago-en


First time trying this... Got recommendation from my sis that the donburi is nice
And there's always q during peak hours

Okoya Don @ $13.90++
The bowl looks big!! But it's actually very shallow.. looking good, rice with sauce makes it not very dry.. sauce has kind of herb? 
Salmon steak omu @ $16.50++
Salmon skin is crispy, and salmon seems to be unseasoned.. tt explains the sauce
The rice is special! Kind of butter ride but not like the typical butter rice and there's mushroom! Egg is not very cooked, unlike those in food court

Pasta loft








We are back for more pasta cos it was so good when we have it the 1st time

Prawn aglio olio @ $9.90
Shrooms aglio olio @ $8.90

The pasta today is not as good as the previous.. today's seems to be slightly more cooked but still good!
Don't look oily but the taste is there 👍🏼

Alr tried pizza 🍕 previously, try something else today
Papraka mid wings @ $9
5 mid wings, the skin are sooo crispy and sooo nice, very well seasoned but thirsty an hr or two later... Got the msg feel... So disappointed though so nice

Will definitely come back for more pastas! For mid wings, is it worth the "unhealthy msg"? 🤔

yong he

So near to the rosti place which we had earlier... They are known for their bean curd but it's sold out alr
So we have something close - soya bean milk

Soya bean milk @ $1.80 is normal, nothing special
Also had this carrot cake w egg @ $4.. this is very different from the normal carrot cake... Feels like those prawn/peanut pancake skin, stuffed with turnips and coated with a layer of fried egg at the top.. I shall give this a new name 'turnip pancake'
The skin is crispy but also very oily.. don't really like this.. prefer the traditional carrot cake

#soyabean #soyabeanmilk #turnippancake 

SPUDS SHACK geylang road

Rosti again.. hehe saw this on social media... Looking good, but it's average, won't purposely travel here for it
A stall in a small coffee shop with a few other food stalls
Rosti is abit small and not crispy.. seems undercooked
But can get to choose toppings (powder)
garlic pepper @ $6
Not much of garlic, but very black peppery, in fact find it too peppery
cajun seaweed @ $6
It's more salty compared to the other and we prefer this..

heres the menu
The rosti are better with the powder than just by itself, comes with fried egg by default
Not really filling for a meal..

Lunch on a PH, half of the hawker centre is closed... And it's not crowded.. can get seats easily
Not much choices, tried this ban mian stall

Red wine chicken mee sua @ $5
Don't like the soup... Not my type but my hub like it... 🤔
Mee sua abit soft.. hehe Mee sua soup is not my thing.. to me it's a food to eat when feeling sick 😅😅

Fried fish ban mian @ $4
Soup is quite nice, ban mian also ok, overall ok.. but portion is quite big!

Banh mi Saigon amk

Vietnamese baguette
Located at a HDB shop house opposite NYP
Very accessable via bicycle, PCN connecting amk or yck all the way to punggol

The baguette is quite big, very crispy sandwiching generous amount of meat and veggies (carrots 🥕, spring onions, coriander leaf), special sauce
And there's chilli with seeds! Be sure to take out cos it's spicy

We tried
BBQ pork @ $8.90
It's abit too salty but still nice, it's soft and boneless

Roasted pork @ $9.90
Feels like eating roasted pork rice without rice.. 😅 but my hub likes it! Not so for me... Don't like the thick layer of fats
Skin is crispy, soft and boneless

The baguette is so nice, think I can just have the baguette by itself

Shophouse, mostly for takeaways

Ha Jun korean

Korean food
First time I see Korean porridge so we tried

Shredded chicken porridge @ $5.80
Japanese rice with a mix of brown rice.. taste is nice, hot hot and the "creamy" porridge

Bibimbap @ $6
Feels like it's rice then topped with ingredients... Not hot... Not as I expected
Enough sauce to cover the whole bowl of rice and it's not very spicy
Should be able to get better ones easily

Pasta loft

Passed by this shop quite a few times but nv try before... Saw this on social media, so here we are!

Surprising, the food is really nice, especially the pasta

Prawn aglio olio @ $9.90
This is very nice!! 😍 Looks abit dry but the taste is there
Spaghetti is also perfectly cooked.  Not too soft nor too hard

Trio mushroom @ $13
It's for a pax portion.. super super thin crust... Really like no "bread" kind... Feels like eating biscuit 😅
Not something will want to come back for...

Al funghi @ $8.90
After trying the prawn aglio olio, we ordered another pasta but this is not as nice... It's cream based, and maybe is the type of pasta, fusili.. feels overcooked

co Chung

Another foodie place spotted on social media..
It's a very loud place cos of the pubs opposite

Food is nice, and the shop is very nicely decorated
Most of the items on the menu looks good

We are comparing with Little Vietnam where we always go for Viet food.... The portion here is much lesser with a bigger price tag

Here's what we have
Bun Cha Hanoi Bun @ $12.80++
Like the sauce, but don't like the pork.. feel that got the meat smell.. hub likes it though

Vermicelli with grilled pork and crispy spring roll @ $11.80++
Portion is small... Especially the meat and veg, it's like half.. but there's a spring roll..
The grill is not as strong but still quite nice

Overall still prefer Little Vietnam.. bigger portion and better price too food wise, prefer Little Vietnam too 🤭
But my hub likes this... Yes he think that the meat here is better though.. but when price comes to the pic, Little Vietnam still gets the vote.. not really tt good that it's worth the extra cost

hai yang dao serangoon Central

Malaysia food! My hub saw this at social media and since it's quite near, we are here to try!

It's crowded and quite a wide variety to choose from
It's quite similar to Penang Culture we had previously... 

The curry noodle is their signature, I see quite a lot of ppl getting this

And we tried this
Big bowl curry noodle @ $9.90
Really big bowl with yong dao foo, prawns, eggs
Curry sauce is not very spicy, but seems to have bit of MSG
The yong dao foo is nice! Noodle is okok

Penang fried kway tiao @ $6.80
Portion is not very big but filling enough
Reminds me of pad-thai 😁 I still prefer pad-thai hehe
 quite a fair bit of prawns and Chinese sausage

thought Overallof trying the dessert cos it looks nice in the menu but didn't see anyone eating it 🤔

 still not bad, shall try other dishes the next time..
My hub won't come back if it's far... But will come back again not anytime soon cos it's near

Spinach chicken gratin @ $5.90
Like the sauce which is made of milk, not very cheesey
Portion is quite small
Garlic focaccia @ $2.20
Our must have.. not filling but like the light garlicy and salty taste

Shanghai family

wanted to have some Vietnam food at Little Vietnam, but was temporary closed so looking around nearby, tried the

hong sao pork rice 红烧大排饭 $7 
Not my type.. don't really like the meat cos got meaty smell.. but my hub likes it! Yaa if you are a meat person, you will like this

cong you ban mian 葱油拌面 $4
This is nice!! I like! Though it's abit oily but there's the onion fragrance.. no other sides, just purely noodles!

cong you bing 葱油饼 $4
This is nice too! Hot and crispy.. of cos the one at Taiwan night market is better!😅 Can be done at home too.. get those frozen ones... But can't be compared to Taiwan's

It's nice, will come back again.. but you're actually allowed to smoke and it's air-conditioned 😟

Cava, wanted to eat here few weeks ago but due to the long reservation list...

In the end here's what we've got..
Cava Burger 🍔 @ $17++

Salmon is seared to perfection with the veggies.. everything seems to be so perfect.. quinoa is ok but I still prefer soup spoon's quinoa hehe maybe cos it's basil

It's a very nice place to dine and catch up.. both indoors and outdoors (still sheltered but no air con and can bring furry friends along!) There's also a small indoor garden! 🌱🌱
I'm definitely coming back again for more.. 😍
