Day 4: This Juju Bowl from @thejujubar was my 2nd breakfast :p My first breakfast was prata with fish curry! This is the regular sized bowl and I think they rotate their flavours daily. Pictured is the half dragonfruit, half acai bowl with peanut butter, chia seed pudding, frozen blueberries, bananas, and granola [$8.5] Personally, I thought the bright pink dragonfruit was so pretty but the acai won my heart over! Acai is the best, helped me walk 10km in the afternoon heat today lol â€ïžđ
Post-pilates chicken and waffle goodness đ§đ 10/10 would recommend. Itâs $21++ and $2 for a second helping of maple butter.
PS. You can get your @clintonst_sg chicken and waffles delivered to your door on @deliveroo_sg and @grabfoodsg đŻđŻđŻ
My bagel was a little small today (was still hungry after finishing it) and I wish it was toasted! Also note that all their outlets are currently takeaway only :(
Yum!
Finally, Two Men Bagel House has landed in Holland Village!
Delicious like a piña colada! Way better than the Pink Drink. Great if you like mangoes or peaches.
3 slices belly chashu, wood ear fungus, spring onion, nori.
Kanada-Ya in London is one of my favourite ramen places in the world! đ
When I found out they were opening here, I had to try. Sadly Kanada-Ya in Singapore canât compare.
1. The pork broth, probably the most disappointing, is thick, one-dimensional, bland, doesnât have any taste or flavour. It lacks salt and umami. It tastes creamy and not like pork broth, more like a tasteless, liquid carbonara sauce. It tastes like they added flour tbh. Did not, could not finish.
2. The chashu is plain, nothing outstanding. The spring onions taste dehydrated. You know when you buy instant noodles and there are spring onion bits inside? It tastes like that. Sort of like cardboard.
3. The forms for filling out your order are recycled (i.e. multiple people have used the sheets before and the unerasable pencil marks are still there).
4. Not all chairs have a back so youâre sitting on a stool.
5. The music is rather loud J-Pop/J-Rock. You know the volume of music in restaurants has been increasing over the years? To encourage diners to eat quickly and go.
6. Itâs hard to get the waitersâ attention and they donât seem well trained. I said I was ready to order and gave my slip to the waiter, and thought the waiter was going to take my order, but he didnât and just put the paper back on the table. Until the manager-looking guy came round to ask if we had ordered, then only was our order taken. Then the food took a while to come.
7. Idk why people open a ramen chain when they canât run it well? As a paying customer, it just seems cheap, low budget and not value for money to spend almost $21 for this experience! This isnât a place Iâd visit again or recommend. Despite being newly opened, there was no queue, not a good sign.
8. The mall itself is meh with a myriad of not pleasant smells :/ Shops here are what youâd find in a heartland mall, except this is new. The touchscreen directory on various floors donât work. You have to use mobile data and Google instead.
9. There are better shopping malls and ramen shops in Singapore. Todayâs experience was not great.

Healthy fast food!
Comes with one hot deli (I got the salmon hijiki fennel pappilote (didnât taste any fennel tbh) the portion was extremely little compared to the size of the grease-proof paper!) and two cold deli (Chicken cobb salad and a duo kale salad) and rice (choice of white rice / grain rice) and one soup (choice of miso or carrot cumin).
Think the portion could be a little bit more for the price. Shared this with my mom who is a small eater.
This was a lucky find this evening at the 7 Eleven nearest to my office (which is also very well stocked with many snacks, ice cream and different brands of bottled bubble teas)! đ
This 200ml packet of White Rabbit Candy Milk is advertised as being equivalent to... 7 White Rabbit candies đ±
I havenât had the candy in many years so I canât remember the exact flavour, other than remembering it to be sweet, milky, sticky, concentrated and papery đ
Verdict: This drink, imported from China, is not really sweet. The first sip is very rich and creamy. It just tastes like concentrated, very lightly flavoured milk to me (it has this slightly sweet Chinese flavour to it, Iâm not sure what it is exactly, but the very mild flavouring tastes distinctively Chinese - based on my experience living there long ago) and after a while, it gets a bit bland and each sip tastes the same (like drinking a cup of full cream milk basically) and you start craving water. I donât think there is that much of the White Rabbit candyâs concentrated, sticky sweetness in the drink itself.
I guess it leaves you feeling thirsty like you just ate a ton of ice cream (PS. I bought this for myself and a colleague out of #FOMO and curiosity not because I love White Rabbit candy đ)
Yum! Who would have dreamt up a festive milk tea drink? The peppermint syrup here reminds me of Starbucks. I forgot to shake my drink, so it went like this:
Peppermint syrup -> Tea -> Milk -> Pearls -> Ice
Still a delectable treat and super worth the price! :)
At 30% sugar, the drink was still sweet. In all honesty, whatever sugar level you choose, I doubt there is any actual difference to the sugariness of the drink. Be it 100%, 50% or 30%, it all tastes the same to me!
