How does fermented rye sound to you? Situated along the bustling Nowy Swiat Street lined with restaurants, bars and high-end shops is Specjaly Regionalne, a restaurant that prides itself in whipping up a variety of traditional dishes from different parts of Poland. My BFF and I made my way there to have our last dinner before flying off early in the morning the next day.

Wild boar recipe by the first president of Yugoslavia! The full name of this highly rated restaurant is Oberza Pod Czerwonym Wieprzem, which literally means 'The Inn Under the Red Hog'. It's a recreation of the place in the same area that was around since the 19th century till World War II, which used to be frequented by communist leaders, such as Lenin.

POL: Metropol Hotel [Breakfast]

Image
More than satisfying cold cuts and scrambled eggs! My BFF and I stayed at Metropol Hotel (3*) in Warsaw, Poland, which is situated at a busy intersection not far from the famed Palace of Culture and Science. It's also within walking distance from Centrum metro station. I must say that the spread of the breakfast buffet is pretty decent.

POL: Youmiko Vegan Sushi

Image
Amazingly tasty tomato sushi! As my BFF and I had a late lunch at Zapiecek , we were looking for something rather simple for dinner. We decided on Youmiko Vegan Sushi near Metropol Hotel where we stayed at. I doubt I'd ever had the vegan version of the Japanese delicacy. Given the good reviews online, I was all the more interested to try.

POL: Zapiecek

Sweet or savoury Polish dumplings for you? Polish enjoy many varieties of pierogi , which are local dumplings. Zapiecek, which has got a number of branches in the capital city of Warsaw, perhaps can give you a good introduction to the Eastern European dumplings. My BFF and I dropped by the more prominent branch at the Old Warsaw.

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.

JPN: Ekiben Tabi Bento (駅弁 旅弁当)

Image
Not a single visit to Japan without 'ekiben'! A portmanteau of eki (lit. station) and bento (Japanese meal box), ekiben  has long been an icon of Japanese culinary culture. I know the meal boxes are served at room temperature, but I'm always drawn to them, thanks in part to their exquisite presentation. My family bought some from Ekiben Tabi Bento situated within Kyoto station to savour them for lunch, not inside a train, but in the comfort of our hotel room.

How about indulging in some tea-infused menu onboard? Let's start our trip to the Americas with an exploration of the in-flight food and beverages onboard EVA Air BR226 from Singapore to Taipei, Taiwan. Photos in the coming posts remain in a square format because, as mentioned earlier, I lost most of my photos and the only ones I've got left are those I've shared on my Instagram.
