It’s that time of the year where we abandon our troubles for the moment, and turn our attention to the yuletide feasts that grace our dining tables. Standing out from the barrage of typical Christmas fixtures are Amara Hotel’s Christmas highlights, which feature Asian twists on classic seasonal dishes!
There’s nothing more important than a good breakfast to get you going for the day. And with the on-going hustle and bustle of corporate life in Singapore, sometimes you just want to grab your favourite food and go.
For the hardworking corporate workers in Tanjong Pagar, Guzman y Gomez has rolled out a new breakfast menu that is available daily till 10.30am.
Update June 2020: Rizu has closed.
Nestled in the hip (and regrettably unexplored by yours truly) neighbourhood of Duxton Hill is RIZU Sushi and Modern Japanese Cuisine, an understated restaurant that opened its doors in late August 2018.
Housed in a minimalist 30-seater space, Duxton Hill’s latest addition derived its name from the words ri (a deep blue prized gemstone that signifies good luck and harmony) and zu (meaning “joy” and the use of cherished gems).
From now till 21 October 2018, diners at Mandarin Orchard‘s Japanese inspired international buffet restaurant, Triple Three will get to savour a bountiful feast of the freshest seafood, produce, and more from none other than every seafood lover’s mecca: Hokkaido.
It seems that Asian street food is all the rage these days, with various hole-in-the-wall type joints popping up to serve their take on what is a beloved staple for many. When I first visited Lola’s Cafe a whole five years ago (back when I started this blog; time flies!), little did I expect this homegrown cafe to venture into the Asian food business.
A familiar name amongst carnival goers, Dumpling Darlings has made its permanent on the same side of Amoy Street as three years old Wanton. Being an avid eater of dumplings myself, I knew I had to swing by their premises as soon as I could.
Update 19 Jan 2025: Seoi Gor Cafe has closed.
You know when you’re out with your friends and you just can’t decide on a place to eat that satisfies everyone’s cravings? Well good news for you: Royal T Group, the mastermind behind homegrown bubble tea chain LiHo, has launched Seoi Gor Cafe, a 3-in-1 Chinese street food concept that houses three brands both new and beloved: Woo Ricebox, Seoi Gor, and Gong Yuan Ma La Tang.
Located a stone’s throw away from Aqua S at Orchard Xchange, Seoi Gor Cafe has brought delectable new additions to each concept’s menu, alongside existing bestsellers which are sure to whet appetites!
Update 19 Jan 2025: Aqua S has closed.
While I’m not too big on desserts, I’m always down for a lil sweet treat now and then. Heck, the more dramatic, the better.
So when the fantastically Instagram famous Aqua S from Sydney, Australia announced their plans to set up shop in Singapore, I was pretty intrigued. As I had never tried their pastel hued soft serve, often hidden behind a voluminous cloud of cotton candy on my social media feed, I was eager to try it out when they opened their doors this week at Orchard Xchange.
