Cliff(y) Goes Dining

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.

Dreamy creamy cheese inside a crunchy croquette! Along the bustling pedestrian-only shopping street called Yunotsubo Street in Yufuin, Japan is a small shop selling a variety of croquettes. Routinely winning contests for best croquettes in the country, the shop attaches the word  kinsho  (lit. gold medal) to its name.
