In as few words as possible, FOC by Nandu Jubany at Hong Kong Street is presently the best Spanish tapas restaurant in Singapore. Bar none. Reasonably priced, exquisitely executed, stylishly decorated and with wonderful service. What more could one ask for in a dining experience? Oh…did I mention that it doubles up […]
Wah Kee Big Prawn Noodles @ Pek Kio Market Pek Kio Food Centre, #01-15 I’ve been coming here since I was a kid and I actually remember my dad and mum bringing me here from as young as 5 to 6 years old. That’s almost 25 years ago […]
The blogging ennui bug got me for a bit. Hopefully I’ve managed to rid myself of it. Anyway, Tong Ah is a cze char place that I wanted to review for quite a while and I’ve finally got around to it. On all my previous visits here, I left […]

Right off the bat I’ll tell you that Assembly Coffee is something special. Located at Evans Lodge and nestled between The Wine Company and Mr Prata, it is actually quite easy to miss the entrance but for the huge (and well designed) mounted emblem and street-level signboard. Assembly describes […]
Let me start by saying that I absolutely adore chicken rice. In fact, I would go so far as to say that despite the wide variety of excellent food on this little island, chicken rice is my favourite! Ok, so it’s a tough fight between chicken rice, prawn mee […]
