I could probably go without them!
These falafels were πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ and Chef @florian_ridder has nailed it in ensuring every single component comes together as one flawless composition. /I enjoyed numerous vegan dishes at cafes in Australia and it's wonderful that Singapore is catching onto that β€” slowly but surely. Hoping savour more tasty vegan creations this year and introduce them to my vegan friends πŸ˜‹

Since my trip to Osaka in 2014, I've been hunting for an Okonomiyaki that's enough to satisfy my cravings. And man, this blew my 🐰 paws off πŸ‘‹πŸ»πŸŒ¬πŸ˜‚ /
Was impressed with the crispy light batter, fresh cabbage and tiny squid bits, which are not chewy at all. Not the mention, the sauces, mayo and bonito flakes are FREE FLOW. It was darn shiok to spam my pancakes with the bonito doing its boogie! πŸ˜› Service was also immaculate. I need to bring my fam here for a pancake tossing party πŸŽ‰ 😌 Highly recommend this place if you are an Okonomiyaki fan! #dontsaybojio #okonomiyaki #japanesefood #osakaeats #bonitoflakes #burpple

Earl Grey Lavender x Mochaccino Cone [$7]. This is the best match when one is light and flowery, whereas the other is rich and velvety ☺️ .
Finally visited the original Creamier outlet at my heartland for 10 years called Toa Payoh! Spotted some interesting flavours like Milk Chocolate Orange and Macadamia Tropicana. .

It was also a pleasant surprise to realise that the cafe is situated right opposite the hawker centre, where I used to have breakfast with my 120-strong Concert Band mates in secondary school! At that time, I wasn't impressed with my first hawker Lor Mee; Grandma's recipe is still the best 😜 #coffeefirst #mochaccino #lavenderdessert #earlgrey #burpple

// 🍞 taste: -100/5 Been a loyal fan of @doublescoopssg for its resemblance to the renowned thick toasts at After You, Bangkok. I have even recommended these to my friends and family members back in Singapore. .

However, I found out from my visit today that their method of preparation of their toast has changed (not sure when). Instead of having a lightly buttered and fluffy interior, the centre was dissected into cubes and heavily DRENCHED in salted butter β€” as if it's free flow (check out the extremely yellow cube peeking out). The Aftermath: It made me so ill that I could hardly walk, or carry out my regular activities for the rest of the day. All that butter is probably clogging my arteries & awaiting for a heart attack. Never have I felt like this before after having stuffijh myself with so much desserts & thick toasts in my life! #notevenkidding πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ No idea why they altered their recipe, but this one is an utter disaster! Walls of the toast, too, were very hard and dry. /
To the staff: If previous customers have mentioned that your toast ain't buttery enough, at least have the decency to trial and error your product before serving something that is unpalatable & makes them sick to the core. Also, please don't copy Dazzling Cafe's rendition. While they may be nice to look at, their toasts are the bottom of my list β€” tried and tested βœ‹πŸ» / 😀 finally, the irony of this quote on their wall. All desserts are usually worth the calories, but this one WAS NOT. I hope they'd reduce the butter for the health of their future customers. Better yet, revert to the old toast because it was actually good! #doublescoopssg #honestreview #burpple

🌴 Decked in a new tropical vintage look, it is definitely fancier and spacious, compared to their previous site. /
Taste: 2/5 .

Out of the stunning variety of pastries, my Friend and I instantly decided on this Matcha Sesame Cake [$8.80] from the moment we stepped in. Wish it was as nice as the palm tree wallpaper behind, but it was disappointing β€” to say the least.
While the cake was moist, every mouthful screamed "dense" to us. Matcha flavour was too weak for us matcha lovers 😣 Overall, it was more of a Sesame cake instead of 🍡
I've tried their other cakes before they weren't like this! πŸ˜” Rushed back to my final slice of Earl grey lavender cake waiting for me at home πŸ™Š #matchaholic #matchacake #blacksesame #matchalife #burpple

The Keisuke kingdom has officially made me call it quits with pork-based ramen because seafood is ultimately my king πŸ˜ΌπŸ™ŒπŸ» I'm not surprised of my inclination towards their Lobbie Ramen at Clarke Quay! Had it when they just opened and I feel it has a richer umami flavour than the crab pictured over here *Π…β„’Uβ„›β„™*! β€’

πŸ™πŸ»πŸ˜‰ / All right that's not what I told him but dang, this Grilled Whole Squid [$15] which he cooked skillfully in front of me was SO DELICIOUS.
Springy, succulent, and not rubbery at all! Better than the πŸ™ skewers I had at Myeongdong added up tgt πŸ€— / .
All in all, my second visit to Seiwaa within a month was even more satisfactory with my family; we ordered more appetisers & different flavours of Okonomiyaki. Service was impeccable on both times too! Waiters are extremely well-trained and we were at awe while they prepared the Monja. . β€’
While the okonomiyakis are undeniably tasty, I wonder if they have an option of adding yakisoba inside like the version I had in Osaka. That was a real gamechanger for me πŸ€”πŸ˜› #okonomiyaki #seiwaasg #grilledsquid #teppanyaki #seafoodlove

Yes, it's a thing. πŸ˜‰ Nothing is better than warming our stomachs during this indecisive rainy weather with Korean BBQ and Army Stew! 🍲 (Is the Goblin still at it? β›ˆ) Taste: 3/5
Price: $23/200g

All eyes were on the staff flipping our green tea-laden meats on the grill. Couldn't contain my excitement once they were passed to us!
However, we agreed that the green tea flavour is too subtle to be traced. Could only get a whiff from its aroma. To solve this, perhaps Matcha powder could be sprinkled on TOP before serving.. Just a suggestion of course πŸ˜‰

πŸ™ rice was kinda mushy and the ratio of ingredients to rice ain't right πŸ˜” nonetheless, I'd recommend the Seafood Army & Soybean Stews which were above average for its price and location at Heartland Mall!
Budaejiggae was not too spicy 🌢 and filled with the mandatory SPAM, teokbokki, tofu, ramyeon & sausages πŸ‘…

I was sold once I sank my teeth into this Soft Shell Crab Slider with SALTED EGG YOLK CHEESE SAUCE. If it sounds good to you, it tastes even better. I didn't wanna share so had to order second serving all to myself!! πŸ˜‚ Overall, the best Sliders I've had in history with an affordable price of $14 NETT. πŸ‘ŠπŸ» Yes, I'm gonna come back again soon this year. I don't care, I MUST. #8DaysLeft #SaltedEggYolk #Burpple
