Cliff(y) Goes Dining

Fulfilling fusion dinner, especially the roast beef and the cream spaghetti! UPDATE (26/12/2018):  The restaurant has closed down. I'm not sure, but I believe there aren't many restaurants here in Singapore serving Japanese-Italian fusion food. Apart from the affordable Saizeriya , I have recently discovered a hidden gem not too far from my house. Upon entering Bene Spaghetti, I felt as if I was in Japan as I heard the staff spoke in Japanese to each other.

Thick mushroom soup that was way too rich for my blood... How many of you have been to the Lifelong Learning Institute at Paya Lebar? Launched in 2013, the institute provides an avenue for in-demand skills training, as well as professional upgrading programmes. On the first floor is a  Halal  certified bistro serving a variety of international dishes. 

Mouth-watering spicy prawns on a hotplate that could be fresher... UPDATE (13/07/2020):  The restaurant has closed down. I can't believe that my last review on Peranakan cuisine is dated all the way back to 2014. That was when I visited Melaka, Malaysia. To break this hiatus, I'm going to write about O'nya Sayang (lit. love of a Peranakan mother) that I chanced upon when I was at Tampines.

How did the limited edition salted egg yolk item fare? Prior to dropping by the outlet at Changi Airport, it'd been a long time since I last dined at Fish & Co., which was probably during my Junior College days. After sending my sister off, my BFF and I decided to check out how the menu has changed over the years.

Heart-warming signature stew with oh-so-tender pork ribs! Not that this post is about local cuisine, but Happy National Day! I hope everyone has been having a great week so far. I'm currently down with a bit of flu, but that isn't going to stop me from venturing for food. In fact, today's dinner has made me feel healthier, thanks to the hearty stew that I had.

Decent fettuccine with pink sauce, but not enough mushrooms... When I first heard the name of the restaurant, I thought that was 'pasta' joined with 'more'. After looking more closely to the capitalisation in the middle, I've eventually come to a realisation that the name is actually a concatenation of 'pasta' and the Italian word for 'love':  amore .

Virgin experience with carbonara risotto! I wrote about  Spizzico  sometime last year, an Italian restaurant that used to be at UE Square, but it has since moved to Westgate Mall at Jurong East. It appears that the space has been overtaken by another Italian restaurant, which is what I'm going to review today. 

Truly hearty chicken stew with a touch of white wine! UPDATE (02/11/2019):  The restaurant has closed down. August is here! After visiting the cool Library@Orchard for the first time, my BFF and I walked our way to Orchard Central. We stumbled upon Milagro Spanish Restaurant, which offers quite an extensive food items from various regions of the country.
