Buffet I always heard about this place for serving fresh and delicious sashimi but never had the chance to visit due to its ulu ulu location. Now that I have, I gotta agree with the reviews. TL;DR - Focus on Sashimi and Chawanmushi. Drinks and desserts are additional charges. We made a reservation through @eatigo_sg for a discounted buffet rate. T&C apply. Although the discount rate is fixed at certain times, it's a good way to save some money. We went there early since we needed to walk about 800m to the restaurant from Tan Kah Kee Station. We arrived at a small, long, and cozy restaurant with a dim ambiance. Using a QR code to scan for the ordering menu, we each ordered what we wanted to try and eat, then waited for the food to arrive. Food arrived promptly. If you are a sashimi lover, this place excels. The sashimi tasted quite fresh, with each slice being chilled, smooth, and delicate in the mouth. The cuts were just the right thickness to fit into the mouth. Ikura Chawanmushi is another must-have dish. The eggs were sieved properly, leaving a smooth surface without many air bubbles. Eat with care as this savoury egg dish is served piping hot. It's so nice that I had seven of them and treated them like dessert too. As for the sushi, the toppings were alright, but the rice was subpar. The vinegared rice felt lumpy and tasted cheap, lacking deep flavour. The grilled, pan-fried, teppan, and deep-fried items were kind of oily, in my opinion, and the taste was quite average. The Wafu Steak was probably an exception with its juicy, tender, and chewy meat. Note that the buffet doesn't include drinks and desserts. If you are thirsty, they offer free-flow drinking water and free-flow hot/cold green tea for $1 and $1.50, respectively. Their service was great too. A very important point to note: CASH/PAYNOW/PAYLAH ONLY Buffet Pricing: Monday - Friday (Lunch) Adult: $41.90++ Child: $25.90++ Monday - Sunday (Dinner) Complimentary (per pax): 1 serving of Fatty Tuna Sashimi & Scallop Sashimi Adult: $59.90++ Child: $33.90++ Music by @vladest_art — Behind the Sun License: Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/deed.en . 🚩Shin Yuu @ Greenwood Ave, 16 Greenwood Ave, Hillcrest Rd, 289209 . . . #mehmehfoodventure #mehlicious #tastisfying #foodie #sgfoodie #sgfoodblogger #foodblogger #foodblog #foodcoma #burpple #burpplesg #sgfood #foodsg #eatmoresg #foodinsing #sgeats #buffet #自助餐 #japanesebuffet #japanesecuisine #oishii #美味しい #foodjapan #japanfood #shinyuu #shinyuuatgreenwoodave #sashimi #chawanmushi

Yasai Tempura Not bad. I actually prefer vegetable tempura due to the variety. But overall this buffet felt cheap.

Ebi Miso Mayo Yaki Aka prawn omelette. Lol. This felt so Chinese, while this buffet felt cheap.

Comfort Thai Food There are many great places serving Thai food but TNH is one of my all time favourites. Been visiting them 10+ years ago since I was a secondary school kid, back in the days where we could get a beef noodle soup for $4.50 as student price. Now the prices have shot up to $10 but all things considered, the food is still amazingly great and the portions are huge! I always order the beef noodles or Tom yam noodles and the quality is consistently 💯 The homely vibes are ever as present 10 years ago till now

Tom Yam Soup Really worth the money. The never ending bowl of meat. Filled with pork, chicken, fish ball, abalone mushrooms I couldn't finish all the meat and I was filled.

Garlic Prawn 15nett Crunchy, crispy and fragant dish with fried garlic. Each prawn was juicy but 15$ for 6 prawns? Rather overpriced

salmon mentaiko & pork belly grain bowls food and drinks were extraordinarily mediocre, but the long service time added to the overall frustrating experience. they're closing at the end of june due to manpower issues, which is apparent in their long wait time (30min for each item). in conclusion, not a store i would recommend.

Kara cafe Good food at Kara cafe

struggled to exercise self control with these The 𝐎𝐊𝐎𝐍𝐎𝐌𝐈𝐘𝐀𝐊𝐈 𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐅𝐅𝐋𝐄 𝐓𝐎𝐓𝐒 ($𝟏𝟐) came in a hUge portion, were vvv crispy & drizzled with the most amazing truffle mayo😮‍💨👌🏼🤍

Shredded Duck Pasta 🍝 Shredded Duck Pasta 🍝

Duck Confit ($32) Duck confit was tasty but a little bit dry and tough. I liked the potato lyonnaise for the basil flavour but could do with a bit more salt. Overall, it felt a bit lacking for something so pricey - it’s tasty but there’s no “wow” factor. I might come back for pastries/breakfast because the location is very pretty (especially the outdoor space) but I’d be hesitant to have a meal here

Muss-try for shell lovers Seafood pasta comprising of spaghettini doused in some garlicky and really seafoody broth. As pictured, the portion for the mussels was generous. Perfect for seafood lovers

Cheeseburger A very pleasant place for brunch. Burger is nice and juicy. Buns are also not too rich. Looking forward to trying the rosti and other items on the menu.

Galato on rosemary cones Found out about @dailyground.co, a rather new cafe serving gelato from @sugartreegelato, food, drinks and pastries, and it's quite a nice place to eat at and unwind. We had oolong chrysanthemum and dark chocolate gelato on rosemary cones. The dark chocolate was rich and the oolong chrysanthemum had a lighter flavour in comparison. I would have liked a stronger oolong flavour because it wasn't really distinct when I had it.

Waffles set Creamy pistachio gelato with very crisp waffles. The best part of this dessert was that addictive sea salt caramel sauce .

Falafel Bowl A cosy co-working space with comfortable meeting area, and of course they also serves some in-house dining as well. I ordered their falafel bowl without much expectation and was surprised with the portion. It is actually very big and fulfilling meal for one person. Comes with lots of mixed mesclun, cherry tomato salsa and tabouleh. Of course with their house-made falafel you can’t go without the humus, which they provided 2 type of it; included the traditional and beetroot. Accompanied by mixed herbs, avocado, house-made plant-based raita, house-made flatbread, dukkah and almonds. I need some protein for my lunch, which is why I also added some organic chicken to my bowl.

i! love! genius! central! forever an advocate of this place!! love the atmosphere and spaciousness of the restaurant, and how friendly the staff are. i always get my cheese quesadilla and top it up with chicken :) it’s not the cheapest but i always come out feeling extra full and hearty i love the sides and the spices too. my friend got the falafel set and that was pretty GREAT too. can’t wait to try other things on their menu

Thai tea crepe At $8, the OG from Two Bake Boys doesn’t come cheap. Taste and flavour wise, given it’s a recipe from the owner, a Thai, it’s in a way, guaranteed good! The mille Thai tea crepe came served with a pouch of Thai tea drizzle, enhancing the tea-liciousness of the cake. Thanks to Burpple beyond 1-1, this is certainly way more affordable!

Birthday Came to celebrate my birthday and its definitely a good experience. Firstly, the staff is friendly and help prepare the cake when she know we are celebrating in the cafe. Secondly, the ambience is good to chill and chit chat. Lastly, the cakes are delicious. I love that the cake is not so sweet and the portion is good for 1pax. Will come back again :)

very pretty cafe!!! very well decorated cafe & cosy environment but had no one when we reached around 5pm. had their thai milk tea crepe cake & vanilla strawberry crepe cake for a total of $8 after 1 for 1 discount. the crepe cakes were flavoured mildly but the thai milk tea sauce helped to enhance the milk tea flavours so we enjoyed the cakes. it was a distance from bugis mrt station so we're on the fence whether we would purposely go back there again.

Impressive Donburi for Neighbourhood Hawker We ordered the curry katsu & shrimp tempura dons at usual price $11 each. We were pretty impressed by the presentation of the bowls. Portion was average, sufficient. Food was tasty except the tempura was a little on the soggy side given how we didn’t wait very long to eat. However would say definitely worth the 1-1 deal on burpple.

Donburi Bought the chicken katsu curry rice, and the fried tempura ebi rice for $11 (with the 1-for-1 deal). I would suggest to have curry go with your rice because it’s good, and it’ll be a little dry without the curry.

Karrage & Ebi Curry We enjoyed it for the 1 for 1 deal given!

Absolute Kino(be) Once you’re done getting some beers from Get Some, head on over to @kinobe.sg just round the corner to get some delicious food to silence those voracious beer munchies. No I mean it, Kinobe is just a few steps away from the pub, which seems like some genius tactical positioning. If Kinobe sounds familiar to you, they should, as they used to dish out rather delectable Japanese food at Amoy Street Food Centre. Apparently they moved to the wild west of Singapore.⠀ ⠀ You’re going to be spoilt for choice here, as you can choose from beef, wagyu beef, chicken, duck, pork and salmon, and you can choose each protein in three different variations. I was about five pints deep by then, and I just picked the first thing my drunken eyes fell upon: the Mentaiko Salmon Don for ten dollars flat. For ten bucks I got myself quite the bargain with a full ricebowl topped with a sizeable slab of salmon buried under a generous layer of torched mentaiko mayo, a fabulously flowy soft boiled egg that unfortunately popped too early, and most surprisingly, some nicely sautéed shiitake shrooms.⠀ ⠀ The slice of salmon I got certainly appears to be thicker than normal, and as such I was pleasantly surprised by its extra moistness as I devoured it in my drunken desire. The mentaiko mayo is certainly more creamy than savoury, but the levels of umami presented were certainly enough to sate my taste. The sautéed shiitake was an interesting addition with its bouncy chew, and I quite enjoyed their presence to complement the soft flaky fish. The egg added a luscious, albeit slightly unnecessary, richness to the rice as it gushed its essence all over the sticky Japanese rice.⠀ ⠀ With bangers like their mentaiko salmon, Kinobe is a definite can eat, bae.

Wagyu Mentaiko Don Stall in Kopitiam selling Japanese Don. Ordered Wagyu Mentaiko Don $14. Meat was tender and the Mentaiko sauce gave the rice and beef added umami. Break in the onsen egg and the yolk covered rice became silky smooth. The slivers of shitake mushrooms rounded up the flavours in every mouthful Must come back soon to try their other items. Support young hawkers.

Darn good bowl of fish soup! I don't usually have my fish soup with milk, but this hits different. Their $6 fried fish soup was of a pretty huge portion, with thick fried fish slices. The fish slices were very fresh, succulent and naturally sweet! Their soup really was the winning card, as it was so robust with the rich fish stock, flavours all intensified with a splash of shaoxing wine and milk. Extremely lovely. Definitely a bowl I don't mind having every day!

quan ji pork ribs rice 7/10, nice flavours. pricey side

Absolutely lovely. One of the best hor fun I've had! Made a trip down to Amoy Street Food Centre and I realised that this stall was significantly larger than others. Along with the long lunch queue, I decided to try their food as well. I got the Beef Hor Fun ($6) and it was so delicious. The hor fun had noticeable wok hei and they were all drenched in this fermented bean sauce that has such complex flavours! You get umami, savouriness as well as aromatics from each bite. Furthermore, the beef slices were tender and some were pretty thick! If I do work around here, I can see myself coming back for this regularly!
