SIN: Alter Ego

Eat clean or indulge dirty?

"Surrender or control? Embrace your alter ego." The interesting dining concept at Esplanade Mall not only serves healthy poke bowls from its opening time till 9.00pm, but also whips up sinful dishes from 3.00pm onwards daily. I was there for lunch, deciding to try the poke bowls.

SIN: MOS Café [Delivery]

Serving rice burger since its inception in Japan in 1972~

It's been way too long since I last had something from MOS Burger, probably dating all the way back to the time I was a student. The café version exists at three different locations in Singapore at the point of writing. I didn't dine in, but ordered a number of items via a delivery platform.

SIN: Sichuan Dou Hua

Don't miss the silky beancurd with wolfberries, of course!

Proud of being one of the pioneers of Sichuan cuisine in Singapore, Sichuan Dou Hua was established in 1996 at PARKROYAL on Beach Road, the branch that I visited recently. Besides the four branches here, there's one in Tokyo, Japan and another in Yangon, Myanmar at the point of writing.

SIN: Tempura Tenten

Relatively cheap 'tendon' with items like bacon and chicken ball~

The undying craze over tendon, which is a rice dish topped with tempura (Japanese battered and deep-fried assortments), has resulted in more eateries jumping on the bandwagon to satiate customers' cravings. Besides tendon, Tempura Tenten at Raffles City Shopping Mall also serves a variety of ramen.

SIN: Food for Thought

"Good Food for a Good Cause"

Food for Thought is housed inside National Museum of Singapore, which is the country's oldest, yet progressive museum. The bistro serves a variety of Western favourites, as well as dishes that honour Southeast Asian flavours. Enjoy the food and make others feel blessed should you have a bit more to spare.

SIN: SONS

Black baccala cakes with tasty sea urchin sauce!

Happy belated birthday, Melon! Her birthday is actually on 3 October, but I simply didn't have the time to go out for a meal last Thursday as there were lots of work to clear. SONS is a trendy trattoria-cum-bar housed inside one of the heritage-chic shophouses of Nankin Row in Chinatown.

SIN: Simply Wrapps

Five different choices of tortillas for your wraps!

Simply Wrapps is one of my favourite DIY wrap stores, although I've never actually DIY since I always go for the fixed creations. Boasting a selection of 5 tortillas, 50 nutritious ingredients and 18 house dressings to choose from, it's the first Halal-certified salad chains in Singapore.

VIE: Vietnam Airlines VN663 (Economy)

When 'chye sim' met pasta~

The last post of the month shall serve as the closure of my overseas food adventure in June 2019. After a series of Business Class meals, I wouldn't say I was looking forward to the meal onboard Vietnam Airlines in the Economy Class again, but apparently it wasn't too shabby.
