MEX: Guacamole Grill

Image
Trying out two unfamiliar Mexican dishes! From Canada, we shall move on to Cancun, Mexico. Despite our initial intent to spend some leisurely time along the beach, unforeseen circumstances forced my BFF and me to scramble our travel plan. Nevertheless, we made the most of our very limited time indulging in some Mexican cuisine at the airport branch of Guacamole Grill before boarding our flight to Panama.

SIN: Guzman y Gomez

Image
"Tell your taste buds their siesta is over!" Guzman y Gomez is a chain of eateries specialising in Mexican food. I started picking up Spanish just recently. Knowing that the word y means 'and', I suppose it's founded by two people named Guzman and Gomez. At the point of writing, there are five branches across the island. I visited the one at Tanjong Pagar.

SIN: J8 Hotel [Breakfast]

Image
Cooked-to-order main course and mini buffet for breakfast! It's just come to my realisation that I've been keeping a few completed posts as drafts without publishing them. I went for a staycation at J8 Hotel (3*), which is located in Jalan Besar area, before this terrible COVID-19 year. For breakfast, each guest gets to choose a main course and enjoy some free-flow items from the mini buffet line.

The best pulled pork quesadilla I've ever had thus far! It's been a long time since I went to a typical North American diner. To relive the long lost experience, I went to The Templeton for a quick dinner with my BFF. The old-school diner is located along the busy Granville Street in the entertainment district of Vancouver, Canada.

SIN: Tart Blanc

A happy marriage between peach and salted egg yolk! Let's take a short break from Turkish food as it's Pikachu's and my birthday! In spite of the current not-so-good situation I'm currently facing, I took a bit of time off in the afternoon for a simple celebration with my BFF. Tart Blanc is a small café tucked in a row of shops in Millenia Walk with its unsurprising, unmistakable white interior.

SIN: Myra's @ The Stadium

Where North Indian and Mexican dishes coexist harmoniously~ Can you imagine stuffing yourself with North Indian and Mexican food under one roof. Well, you don't have to. Simply head down to Myra's at either East Coast Park (Myra's Beach Club) or Kallang Wave (Myra's @ The Stadium). I chanced upon the latter while taking a stroll around the Singapore Indoor Stadium.

SIN: The Soup Spoon

Image
A soup named after a famous American music duo? The Soup Spoon opened its first outlet at Raffles City in 2002, growing rapidly to a total of 20 branches in Singapore and 3 branches in Jakarta, Indonesia as of now. The aroma of freshly made soup wafting in the air enticed me to give it a try when I was looking for a simple dinner at Bugis Junction.

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.
