SIN: Istanblue

Image
Authentic 'kunefe' that reminded me of the good times in Istanbul! I wonder if the name of the restaurant is a hybrid between Istanbul in Turkey and the renowned Blue Mosque in that city? Anyway, true to its name, the restaurant features a bluish interior.

SIN: Padi @ Bussorah

Image
A restaurant that serves up to 600 'nasi ambeng' platters every month! The traditional Javanese dish called nasi ambeng , a celebratory dish featuring a heap of rice with various side dishes served on a huge platter, was popular from the 1960s to the 1980s. Padi @ Bussorah is one of the restaurants around that plays its part in preserving the dish.

SIN: Keria Japanese Restaurant

Image
Have you tried 'battera' before? Keria Japanese Restaurant is the best  izakaya  (a type of Japanese establishment serving alcohols and food to go along with) I've ever been in Singapore. For those who enjoy going for Japanese karaoke at Cuppage Plaza like me, you may want to drop by for a drink or a meal to complete the experience.

Filling salad set with quality meat! As many are getting more conscious about healthy eating these days, there are lots of salad places cropping up out there.

SIN: Soup Restaurant

Savouring the once-a-luxurious-dish of Samsui ginger chicken~ The history of Soup Restaurant goes back to 1991 when the founders observed the increasing popularity of herbal soup varieties in HK, thereby establishing the first outlet at Smith Street in the Chinatown area. The well-loved Samsui Ginger Chicken was only introduced three years later, and it has since become one of the restaurant's signature dishes.

SIN: Smokey's BBQ {MOVED}

Image
Amazing beef brisket marinated for more than 20 hours! UPDATE (18/07/2018):  The restaurant has moved to 73 Joo Chiat Place. The moment I stumbled upon Smokey's BBQ on the Internet, my mind immediately thought of the smoked meat I had at Smokey Bear during my trip to Cameron Highlands in Malaysia. Given some of the positive reviews I read online, I decided to bring my BFF to Joo Chiat to put the restaurant into the acid test.

Having established its presence in Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Taiwan, Dazzling Café continues to bedazzle its patrons by its honey toast creations, along with other interesting items. My BFF and I didn't order the honey toast though, going for a waffle instead for dessert.

Delicious Indonesian 'nasi uduk' with chili prawns! The middle of this year saw me doing a long-haul flight in the Premium Economy Class cabin of Singapore Airlines' Airbus 350-900 aircraft for the first time. In fact, it was also my first time flying directly to Istanbul, Turkey from Singapore. In general, I enjoyed the two meal services: supper and breakfast.

Not wow-ed by its beef burgers though... Born in Germany, Hans im Glück (lit. Hans in Luck) is a burger chain named after a fairytale recorded by the Brothers Grimm. Known for its forest-inspired decor, the outlets create a cozy, rustic atmosphere. Here in Singapore, it's been rebranded as SERVUS German Burger Grill and it can be found at VivoCity.

Tasty beef lasagna by Brahim's Food Services, but no more... After so long, I finally managed to have a family trip again in December 2022 with Japan as the destination. Unfortunately, just like the last part of my Azerbaijan travel series, I've lost all photos during this trip, save for the ones that I managed to post to my Instagram feed. Let's take a look at what I had onboard Malaysia Airlines MH52 from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to Osaka, Japan.
