SIN: The Whale Tea [Takeaway]

Image
Fancy a blue whale? I can count with the fingers on one hand the number of times I get a drink from a specialty drink store in a year or perhaps more. Therefore, today's post is something rather rare. Originating from Nanjing, The Whale Tea is one of the largest beverage and dessert stores in China, offering something different than the usual bubble tea.

SIN: IKEA Restaurant

Image
I prefer their flaky salmon to the meatballs! When people mention about IKEA, I bet these are among the first two things that come to mind: furniture and Swedish meatballs. IKEA first opened its doors in Singapore along Alexandra Road in 1978. Truth be told, the first time I tried their famed meatballs wasn't actually at home, but during one my trips to HK.

SIN: The Coastal Settlement

Image
Have you tried mayonnaise infused with passion fruit before? The Coastal Settlement is a lovely restaurant decorated with all things of the past, from antique memorabilia to vintage vehicles. Tucked away in the quieter side of Netheravon Road, which isn't too far from the abandoned Changi Hospital, the building was previously used by the Royal Air Force for fault control during the British occupation.

SIN: Dallas Restaurant & Bar

Image
Life-changing salt and pepper calamari! Dallas in Texas, the USA always brings back memories to me, so much so that I purposely went to the restaurant that goes by the name of the city when it was still operating at Suntec City. I've been pretty much hooked since then. At the point of writing, there's a branch at Boat Quay, which is the focus of today's post, and another one at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands.

Virgin experience with Vietnamese coconut coffee! Tonkin Vietnamese Noodle and Coffee is a humble eatery housed inside KINEX Mall (previously known as OneKM Mall) located not far from Paya Lebar MRT station. For the uninitiated, the name Tonkin was used from 1883 to 1945 for the northern region of present-day Vietnam that was under the control of France.

SIN: Singapore Airlines SQ392 (Premium Economy)

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.

SIN: SERVUS German Burger Grill

Image
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.

MAS: Malaysia Airlines MH52 (Economy)

Image
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.
