Pleasantly surprised at the tastiness of this speedy bowl of sukiyaki gyudon. The tender beef is cooked to order and obvs I added an onsen egg. A great stop for a quick bite!
Kim’s on Lorong Kilat is hands down my favourite spot for Korean food. Doesn’t matter it’s an absolute trek to get there. The budaejjigae here is my fave thing on the menu, followed by various BBQ items and their pancakes. Most importantly, their banchan game is super strong. Refill please!
I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to come to Sitka. I want to now make it a point to come here every time I’m back in town. I especially loved the charred cabbage with seaweed butter & ikura and half didn’t want to share. Also loved the lamb ragu (RM32) and smoked unagi in seaweed crackers (RM21). I can’t wait to go back and try the rest of the menu.
I love this place. The food is incredibly interesting and delicious. Particular mention goes to the char siew bacon mac & cheese, brawn terrine (that’s a brined pig’s head ahem) and charred sweet corn & grits. Quite cute too they have their own take on a BCM but with tagliatelle. Also important, they have a wild selection of gin and their own distilled ones on tap. 😱
Due to being spoilt by Padella, I came down hard on critiquing the pasta served. It was good, but pasta was outshined by the divine squab pigeon and burrata with fig hazelnuts and honey.
Ozone boasts great coffee and a strong brunch menu. Their beetroot sweet potato frittata and fish sarnie was amaze. Granted this was more of an end-summer menu, their food is consistently great all year round. Also, the coffee is good!
Nothing quite gives me homey feels like a bowl of congee. I love the silkiness of Mui Kee’s congee - my faves being the century egg&lean meat and the sliced fish. But more importantly, the sliced raw amberjack is a must order.
Fabulous gastropub in hip Shoreditch. They deliver a solid Sunday roast with the most enormous Yorkshire pud. You can choose pork & apple sauce, Welsh lamb, Angus beef, or a mix! I went with the lamb and it was divine. Also, never hurt anyone to order a few cheeky drinks with your roast lunch. We had multiple pitchers of Pimms as it was the summer!
I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to come dine at Greenwood Fish Market. The food here is solid, seafood is super fresh and prepared beautifully. Prices are decent considering the quality and service is fairly good. I loved the chowder (a must-order for me if on the menu) and we demolished the mussels very quickly!
The ultimate spot if you’re feeling a bit homesick and want comforting noodles. Super speedy service! Food is delicious and really reasonably priced. The spring rolls in the thit nuong were probably the best I’ve had in London and their Vietnamese iced coffee is ace. I had 2 in one sitting and got another to go. The caffeine and sugar crash after was worth it.
Food is goooooood. The ox cheek and brisket buns in particular were excellent. As were the charred greens. And pork belly. It was all good! Service is friendly and speedy! There’s a reason why you need to book in advance (I’m talking weeks) for a table during the busy weekend/dinner period - or walk in at 6pm for an early dinner like I did.
I love a bit of Greek food - especially if it has a modern twist. Portions here at OPSO are not big considering the price - but great for sharing and ordering a whole lot of variety. Everything on the menu is fab - special mention of the loukoumades donut ball things on the dessert menu. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
