Unfortunately, I wasn’t a fan of the recommended flavours - Lychee Raspberry and White a Chrysanthemum. However, the Midnight Gianduja ($4.70 per scoop) was delectable! The rich and creamy chocolate flavour with a hint of nut reminded me of Kinder Bueno. The thyme cone (top up $1) is freshly made and very aromatic, the smell hitting your nose before even entering the store! It is a must-try that probably goes well with any flavour you pick.

Did I mention how cute the tropical theme is? 😍

When it was my turn to order after a 25 minute wait, the star item was already sold out. I settled for the Sio Bak aka Roasted Pork with rice ($4 per serving, I topped up $1.50 for extra meat), which was featured on Food King by NOC.

It is above average but not on the top of my list. The skin has a GREAT crunch, but I find it overly salty. The pieces of meat is thick and quite lean as well. There’s no sweet gravy to accompany the dish, which is something I like in my usual meal. But the mustard-tasting sauce at the top of the plate is an interesting addition to this dish, which helps to cut through the saltiness of the pork. The chilli is quite diluted and sweet, which is slightly disappointing as I love 🌶🔥 I might return to try out the famed Char Siew but will not come back specially for the Sio Bak 👍🏻 #pork #porkbelly #siobak #roastpork #charsiew #rice #sgfood #sgfoodies #sgfoodporn #sghawker #sgeats #igsg #eatoutsg #whati8today #sgfoodstagram #igfoodie #foodporn #foodie #foodporn #burpple #burpplesg

Chinese cuisine is more than Dim Sum & Zi Char.

I used to be quite intimidated by Sichuan & Northern Chinese cuisine. I was only comfortable ordering 麻辣香锅 (spicy & numbing stir-fry dish) & 凉拌菜(cold Chinese salad).

I ordered the 辣子鸡 (Spicy Chicken) for $10, seeing how it’s a common dish on most tables. It was certainly a rewarding first-try 💯💯💯

Crispy chicken cubes, stir fried with spicy bean paste & Sichuan peppers. Even though the dish looks like it’s made up of 95% chilli, it’s not as hot as it looks. As someone who enjoys piquant & heavily flavoured food, this was a delight to devour. Not to mention, the portion is super generous and can be shared among 2-3 people. I would recommend this dish for anyone who wants to kickstart their Sichuan food journey 😋

P.S. This is the PERFECT snack to go with beer!

Bedok 85 is an unrivalled hotspot for supper in the East. Besides BCM & Sambal Stingray, you can also look forward to desserts at a few neighbourhood ice-cream place to cool the 🔥

Was walking around after dinner & found this new spot next to To-gather Cafe. The 1 ice cream scoop + 1 waffle set ($6.50) is pretty worth it, so I decided to give it a try even though I’m bursting at the seams from dinner.

There are 3 flavours to choose from for the waffle; Buttermilk, Chocolate & Red Velvet. For the ice cream, there are a plethora of flavours. I chose Speculoos (love the huge chunks of biscuit in the ice cream!) and Red Velvet waffle!

Overall, I really enjoyed it! The Speculoos wasn’t overly sweet, the texture was almost chewy. The waffle was fluffy and light, with a nice crisp on the outside. Hot & cold, this combo bakes me crazy 😏

This place was on my to-go list for the longest time ever.

Couldn’t contain my egg-citement when I heard that there’s free flow eggs & salad! Would suggest to go early as the waiting time can be quite long.

I ordered the Triple Cheese Prime Hamburg Steak Set ($20.80) because no sane cheese lover can resist the glorious golden goodness.
The set comes with a sauce of your choice (go for deep glaze!), miso soup, shrimp tempura & pan-fried tofu. Special mention to the premium Koshihikari rice, every grain was as gratifying as finding a pearl in an oyster 🤪

First bite of the beef reminded me of Tori Q’s meatball. I preferred the normal Hamburg as the cheese overpowered the taste of the beef and was too heavy for me. I’m also not a fan of the Keisuke Original Sauce (soya base). It’s certainly a challenge to polish off everything in the set + feast at the salad/egg buffet. Some of must-try dishes at the buffet are the Uma-Kara Spicy noodles, Deep Fried Tofu Ankake Mushroom Sauce & Coffee Jelly. As much as I love eggs, I only went for 2 rounds in the end 😂

Overall, it was an above average experience but I don’t think I’ll be returning soon. This can be a yearly affair ☺️
