As it was our first time there, it was a pleasant to try out something else. I ordered the salmon and my husband ordered their slow-braised Australian beek cheek. We also had side dishes. The food was awesome! Don't mind going there again.. But to try their buffet! *halal-certified*
21 On Rajah is a buffet that recently opened in Day Hotel. This is a halal buffet so Muslims can enjoy to their heart's contend. Please read my review at www.hungryghost.sg
Located in Days Hotel in the middle of Balestier, 21 on Rajah serves up a mix of Mediterranean cuisine and Asian favourites. They have a good buffet spread, and also offer a la carte mains ranging from items like paella and poitrine de poulet, to laksa and chicken curry. They encompass as much of the Mediterranean spirit in their decor as they do in their food, with a white and blue restaurant interior surrounding your culinary experience of authentic flavours of the region.

If you're in the Katong area, check out Tash Tish Tosh for reasonably priced Western food. Much raved about here are the buffalo wings, which are slightly spicy and tangy. Their thin crust pizzas are popular as well. Generously topped with mozzrella, these pizzas are not for the faint-hearted. The pizza dough and tomato sauce are both made in-house from scratch; popular flavours include the Meathead and Hawaiian. For something slightly healthier, opt for their customizable subs!

Mackenzie Rex has been around since 1966 and has a loyal following -- for all the right reasons. The star here is undoubtedly the Hainanese Chicken Rice. The chicen is flavoudful and perfectly cooked, served alongside fragrant rice paired with slightly acidic, fiery chilli. Other dishes you can find on the menu are pretty much zi char dishes. Popular are the baby squid -- deep fried and tossed in a slightly sticky sweet sauce -- and the chilli crab and black pepper crab.

Not many places get pho right, but as Pho 4 All focuses their efforts on perfecting this dish, you can count on them to get your pho fix. For $10, you get a bowl of flat rice noodles in a flavourful broth, topped with tender slices of beef (or flank and beef balls if you wish). As usual, it comes with beansprouts and basil on the side. Also order the cha gio -- Vietnamese fried spring rolls stuffed with chicken and vegetables as the perfect sidekick to your pho. Located conveniently at Jalan Pisang, this is a great spot for a simple date night.

J's restaurant continues to offer good Latin American-inspired food such as tortillas, enchiladas and burritos while boasting an ambience suitable for group gatherings and date nights. Start your meal with their scrambled eggs with salmon, move on to the Adobo chicken or the braised lamb shank - both are fork-tender and flavourful. For dessert, go for the bread and butter pudding studded with white chocolate and topped with peaches and vanilla gelato. If you're a vegetarian, fret not! The wonderful people at J's will gladly accommodate your dietary requests.

This gorgeously whimsical shop is bound to put you in a good mood with its unique decor and colorful walls. Actually a shop by a French design company, La Marelle also doubles up as a perfect cafe hideout on the second floor along Baghdad St. For a hot bite, go for the stuffed croissant, and finish off with a cup of coffee and a slice of Windowsill pie. The prices can get a little steep considering the food is rather simple, but this is definitely a unique place to visit for a lovely afternoon.
