Le Jardinier: Deserving of more than 1 Michelin star

The food here is easily 2 star worthy, at the very least, but it is the inviting way that one is attended to here that makes this gorgeous find of a restaurant that much more compelling, even by New York standards.

FOC Sentosa: Exquisite tapas by the beach

Not to be overly dramatic about it, but one of the best things about summer all year round is how you can spend every other weekend getting toasty by the beach at Sentosa. Like it’s cousin, Tanjong Beach Club, FOC has a steady crowd over most weekends so booking is recommended if not essential particularlyContinue reading “FOC Sentosa: Exquisite tapas by the beach”

Misto: Home made pasta with flair

We were going to chance a walk-in to Murano but discovered halfway through our stroll that it was closed today which was a bank holiday. This serendipitous turn of events led us to Misto, a very charming and cosy Italian restaurant focussing on pastas and a few staple mains. The pastas were incredible. Succulent ingredientsContinue reading “Misto: Home made pasta with flair”

Sticks n Sushi: the perfect post-Soul Cycle treat

As a relatively new fan of spinning, I signed up for a class with Soul Cycle, where it all started. Having been to Sticks ‘n’ Sushi before, I decided to revisit it, this time at the Soho branch.

Amazonico: an Instagrammer’s dream

The ambience is mind-blowing and I liked that there was a fair bit of theatrics incorporated in the dining experience: twirling pineapples on roast, and how the guacamole is prepared at the table. That said, it was on the pricey side and some dishes were definitely more of a hit than others. I’d say thisContinue reading “Amazonico: an Instagrammer’s dream”

Alati: One of the two best Greek restaurants in Singapore

So first things first. In my opinion, the other contender for the title of “Best Greek restaurant in Singapore” is Fotia. Now to Alati. It was a friend’s belated birthday celebration that just so happened to fall on the final night that we were allowed to dine out, before the enhanced COVID restrictions kicked in.Continue reading “Alati: One of the two best Greek restaurants in Singapore”

Kafe Utu: Mouthwatering African food amidst a cool and cosy setting

As the goat curry was memorably spectacular the last time I dined at Kafe Utu, I was a bit disappointed and annoyed that my date for the evening – my husband and father of our two children – did not order that. (Shout out here to anyone who prefers that their partners do the orderingContinue reading “Kafe Utu: Mouthwatering African food amidst a cool and cosy setting”

Humpback: Incredible seafood at sundown

I wasn’t sure about this place at first. They made us put down a deposit of SG$25 to secure our booking for 5.30pm on a Friday, and then followed up on no fewer than three separate occasions to get further confirmation of our reservation. And even when I entered the place it immediately struck meContinue reading “Humpback: Incredible seafood at sundown”
