Cliff(y) Goes Dining

One of the most amazing grilled fish dishes I've ever had so far! UPDATE (25/05/2016):  The restaurant has closed down. I've always had an inclination towards fusion food. The marriage of elements of different culinary traditions can be pretty intriguing to the eyes and tongue. Seasons Bistro is one restaurant offering such charming creations at TripleOne Somerset.

Super cheesy gnocchi with ham!  Hi, everyone! We're back! One month flew like a rocket, and school reopens next week. Well, I'm here to spread the news to those who haven't heard that Capitol Theatre has reopened. Next to it is a luxury shopping mall named Capitol Piazza, where I had a quiet dinner on a weekday. 

Affordable sets, including Buddha Jumps Over the Wall! I'm actually wondering how many times have I written a review before nightfall? Some of my friends have been 'scolding' me for publishing reviews at night as it makes them hungry. Anyway, I'm going to fly off somewhere tonight, so here's today's short review on a hole-in-the-wall eatery that's owned by Yeow Seng (Seafood) Pte Ltd. The company has been a purveyor of canned seafood items, such as shark's fin and abalone, for more than 30 years at the point of writing.

Peter Pan surely loves his pancakes with gooey blueberry jam! I've always liked the idea of all-day breakfast. As someone who usually eats breakfast at home, I'm always enthusiastic to try breakfast items offered by various eateries out there without being limited by time. 'Twas one afternoon I went down to Oromo Coffee at Shaw Towers with my BFF to have a light meal before heading to the cinema. 

Nice taiyaki stuffed with banana, cream cheese and custard! UPDATE (28/02/2016):  All the available branches have closed down. When I walked past Tai-Parfait's kiosk at Plaza Singapura, I was immediately reminded of the amazing taiyaki (Japanese sea bream-shaped cake) from Kogane Taiyaki (黄金鯛焼き) I had in Kyoto, Japan on the last day of 2013. My mouth was pretty itchy, so I decided to drag my friends to try one or two from Tai-Parfait, hoping to relive that magical moment on New Year's Eve.

Halal Asian buffet with pretty good chicken satay! UPDATE (20/08/2016):  The restaurant has closed down. The opening of 1 Market by Chef Wan, which offers a gastronomic spread of Asian cuisine, has added to the list of  Halal  certified buffet restaurants in the country. Have you heard of him before? I've got to know more about the Malaysian celebrity chef, who was actually born in Singapore, after watching his show - East Bites West - in the National Geographic Channel. 

Oh-so-good spinach cannelloni, and aromatic wood-fired pizza! There was a time when I frequented VivoCity, noticing Modesto's located on the first floor of the largest shopping mall here in Singapore. It has since relocated to the third floor at the sky park, which is a popular hang out spot. The brand has been serving many customers for more than a decade at the point of writing.

A huge variety of omu rice with free flow salad bar! UPDATE (13/01/2020):  The eatery has closed down. Liang Court Shopping Centre is home to Japanese restaurants. Affordable ones are available, such as Pecori Japanese Egg Restaurant that allows you to dig into their free flow salad bar with every purchase of a main course per person. Be awed by their wide selections of omelette rice.

Zesty Sichuan style noodle, but disappointing steamed rice... As one walks around Bugis Village that comprises restored pre-war shophouses, he's bound to be treated to the sights of not only stalls selling paraphernalia, but also eateries. Yesterday, I found myself in front of Noodle Star that's managed by Gao Ji Food that has been around since 1954.

Awesome mint chocolate chip ice cream to beat the hot weather! Today's short and sweet (pun intended) review is on an ice cream brand that many people often jokingly refer to as my own establishment, even though my surname isn't spelled that way. I'm not going to bore you with its history, but Andersen's Ice Cream first came to the shores of Singapore in 1989.

Mouth-watering duck leg with addictively crispy skin! If you're looking for affordable, honest-to-goodness French food, you may want to consider La Petite Cuisine at Serene Centre, a place close to my heart due to the fact that I used to buy my secondary school uniform at the nearby Coronation Plaza. I remember that it used to be a small, al fresco eatery, but now it has indoor seats with air-conditioning.
