Keong Siak Snacks @ Keong Siak Road

This was a pre-dinner snacks.........my friend vehemently recommended the doughnuts....
Well..my conclusion is : they did their branding correctly...it is a snack bar.

They served snack food. Ambience is really great!! The doughnuts aren't fantastic, but are rather tasty...the fish and oyster we ordered were very fresh and I do quite enjoy my experience there....though prices still on the high side ( why is dining out in sg soooo expensive?)

Go there if you just wanna hang with your friends!


The light and fluffy doughnuts, which was quite ok

The caramel creme which is not too bad on its own, but lost a bit of the punch combined with the sugar coated doughnuts.

Fish & Oysters - sinful food is sooo yummy.



La nonna @ Holland Village

Went to my friend's place at Holland Village for a swim and decide to reward ourselves after a good work out with some nice italian food.....La Nonna seems to be in Holland Village for a long time...and its the other alternative to Michelangelo.

Food is the type of hearty italian that I like...pastas are done al dente and the sauces were flavourful while not being heavy.....though I think the prices are a tad on the high side.

Nonetheless, not a bad place for good italian food if you are feeling like in the middle of an Italian summer.



Love the bread basket with the restaurant made bread sticks......

Linguine with Crab in creamy tomato sauce. This is really yummy. You can actually see the flakes of crab meat and the I always loved this dish.

Veal Ravioli in porcini cream sauce - looks like it is rich, but it is actually light enough for a hot sunny afternoon....

Hand made Fettucine with bacon in summer truffle sauce. While the truffle sauce might be entirely from the synthetic truffle oil. I love the hand made pasta part....the only complaint my friend had was that ' not enough ingredients'..

Auntie Kim @ Mapletree Business City

My sister's place was quite close to this place and when its time for the big family eat-out, she suggested Auntie Kim's. I missed so much real Korean food, and all thought it is a good idea.

Food was great and value for money...portions are big and I believe this is the authentic Korean taste. Other than being not in the city center, I would definately like to go back there again. Especially loved the seafood pancake..! Very hard to find in SG.



Stir Fried vermicelli - Jab Chae; this is really yummy, a must order

The wonderful array of Korean Amuse bouche, which is usually a good indicator of the standard of the restaurant

Kimchi Tofu Soup - yummy

Chicken Soup - not with Ginseng but with wolf berry...though I always prefer the Cantonese double broiled soup style. I loved this soup base!

Hot plate kimchi pork - I didn't really like this dish...though the pork was done too dry but love the raw enoki mushrooms and the sauce

Rice cakes in spicky sauce - very very good, sauce is great, the rice cakes are light, chewy and absolutely heavenly. Loved the way cucumber is incoporated into the dish

Seafood pancake - I like very very much!

Kimchi Fried Rice - good but not mind blowing for me.

Pork Belly wrapped in lettuce and accompanied with different sauces. This is soo original that i would say that you gotta try it. :)
