SPIZE- comfort food for hungry ghost.

Spize, located just along the main road of River Valley.
They offer mainly malay food together with some western and chinese food as well.
So far i have been returning to eat their prata and murtabuk.
Their curry sauce is the best and so is their chicken and cheese murtabuk.
They make very good teh terik too.
This eating place will usually be very crowded from dinner time all the way to supper
so parking can be rather tricky.

So the above is some chicken satays: 3/5
spicy sardines murtabuk:3.5/5
chicken and cheese roti john:3.5/5
chicken and cheese murtabuk:4/5
their curry:4.2/5
and not forgetting their beverage:4.2/5

price:3.5/5
ambience:3.5/5

Xing Xing Bakuteh.

Introducing you my all time favourite.

You want bakuteh ?
This is the place to go.
Located at the quiet side of farrer park,
i visit this kopitam at Owen road at least once a week.
They have the nicest bakuteh around
and after discussing the issue with my friends
we have come to an agreement that this is the one food to die for.
U want abalone with bakuteh ? they have it as well if you do not mind paying $100 and more for bakuteh.
Their bakuteh is served in clear soup unlike some places which serve in black soup.
The soup is almost heavenly.
Neither too pepperish nor spicy. A sip into your mouth and u just want more.
Is hard to describe in words how the soup taste like, just perfect to me.
Other than bakuteh they offer many kind of hot/cold fish.
Boiled vegetables, pig intestine, pig trotter, and some appetiser.
Bring your own tea if you want or else just order it from them.
(the above cost $32)
Do visit during a rainy day or cooling day, because thts the best weather to go with the food.
Quiet environemnt, good environment,fabulous food and good service from the lady boss.
what more do u want.



pure celestial.

Thumbs down to Modesto

UOB Card Member 1-1 on all pasta and pizza.
Sounds attractive ?
Walk in then.

My dad wanted to have some pizzas for lunch so upon looking at the UOB offers, the more we wanted to walk in.
Yes, typical Singaorean.
We were sitted in the large restaurant that has more than 30tables. But at 12pm, prolly only 3tables were taken up.
The unprofessional staff came by and take order, she seems like a PT to me.
She knows nuts of their food served. So because of her ignorance, we were attended by her senior whom seemed heck care to me.
He quickly recommended us some food and explained the promotion items and walked away.
My dad and I had a Cuppa that tasted so bland. I refused to drink after 2 sip.

We ordered a cooked pork ham and mushroom pizza ($17) in special tomato sauce and a italian "baked rice" ($22)
Conclusion : The pizza was still edible, not fantastic but only edible. But the baked rice, as u can see.
Is so not tempting for me to eat it at all, and i had to like add whatever they had on the table to make it tastier.
I added chilli flakes, salt and pepper and then it became slightly nicer. We left tht place with that plate of rice amost untouched.
That shit doesnt even worth 8bucks to me.

Crystal Jade

Crystal Jade opened its most upmarket restaurant to date, Crystal Jade Dining IN, in VivoCity last month. It boasts four private dining rooms and stunning 180-degree views of the waterfront.
Crystal Jade has about 20 restaurants and bakeries in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Beijing, Seoul, Ho Chi Minh City, Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur.

Number 37 Crystal Jade Dining In offers a completely different food choices to its patrons.
Unlike the rest of the other outlets Crystal Jade DIning In has a different feel.
Welcomed by its long red classy walk in showcasing some live seafood, it also has a breathetaking view of the waterfront, overlooking sentosa island.

The entire concept is more formal and upmarket. Prices are bout 15% more pricey than their usual outlets.
Their service over here was much better and all their staffs seems to know their stuffs well enough to provide a very good service, everybody were very organised even thou the queue outside was long.
The menu consists of Set lunches and Dinner ranging from $60++for 2 pax to $300++for 8pax as well as alacarte options.
I do fancy their attempts in making their menu more interesting. The food offered here are none like the rest of the other outlets. Alot of new varieties prepared in innovative style.

I went for dinner with my folks, so no beef nor too adventurous food for them.
We had a 800gram Soon Hock($50), Pork Ribs($16), DouMiao stir fried with garlic($18) and lastly Crab meat mushroom soup in coconut ($26).

It was a good experience and i guess i would want to visit them some other time to try more of their food.

Authentic Shark Fins

Thai Village for dinner last night at Oasis, which is also their first branch opened since 1989.
Nothing much to talk about Thai Village, a resturant that had been there since forever and has quite a number of well-known signature food. Food has been consistent all along unlike their next door competitor No SignBoard.
I am not really a big fan for shark fins but because the sharkfins at Thai Village is so good, i cant resist it.
So i ordered one pot of shark fins for two person to eat at $60.
Exquisite shark’s fin with mushroom and crab meats braised in superior broth, worthy of its reputation as a time-honoured favorite.
We wanted a light and healthy dinner so i ordered a simple plate of Di Huang Miao with scallops and a small soon-hock.
But no pictures for steam fish as i ate all of it without taking any pictures. =s

And i am certainly going back for their Baked Crabs w/ Vermicelli and steam fish cook in other style.

Sunday brunch

Here i am back at some overly-hyped shopping mall for a sunday brunch.
If u want some british style cafe, good environment with the correct music and space
you guys can try lounging out at Corduroy Cafe. Latest hip bistro cafe offering pretty much the same kind of food you can find at their main store located in Bukit Timah Sixth Avenue.
But unlike their flagstore at Sixth Ave, they do not have houseware for sales. But at Corduroy Cafe they do have a milkbar and some european bakery.
Offering large variety of beverages, pies, pasteries, deserts,fresh salads, some mains and a sandwiches.


So i had a caesar salad with grilled chicken, eggs ben that consist of 2 perfect runny eggs, spinach, baked ham and european bread, mushroom soup and a earl gray tea all at 40moolah.
