Super crispy, lightly battered baby squid that wasn't the least bit oily. Paired with a sweet and sour tangy Thai chili sauce, we gobbled this up in no time at all. And what better way to celebrate our birthday than to highlight the amazing Singaporean entrepreneurs? Happy Birthday Singapore! May our culinary scene continue to grow (Y)

Why leave roasted bone marrow lying in the bone when it can be scooped out and slathered into multiple slots of a warm sesame seed studded bun? Every bite of this combination--that cushiony soft bread and creamy, fatty, slightly gelatinous marrow--triggered audible moans of pleasure.

This was amazing. If you feel like celebrating/splurging on food, this is where you should go!

If you're bored of the usual brunch items that most cafes serve, then you should totally try the food at The Laneway Market. Joining several new cafes along the Tanjong Katong Road stretch, The Laneway Market offers unusual options such as Nacho Chicken and French Toast layered with Bacon and Baked Beans. For mains, try their Pulled Pork Burger and Gambas (soba topped with roasted sesame infused minced prawn). We hear they have a second storey currently in the works!

I came across this casual restaurant one evening recently after finishing dinner in the Joo Chiat area. Braseiro, which was launched in mid-March 2015, serves Brazilian-style grilled meats with--and here is the clincher--UNLIMITED homemade french fries and mixed salad! As explained by the young and earnest French owner Alex who was seated outside, whatever my choice of their flame-licked protein, be it a steak, beef on skewers, roasted half chicken or this week's special of salmon, I'm entitled to have as much of their homemade fries and salad as I like. All for just $19.90+! This was too enticing an offer to miss, so back I went the very next night.
For my meat, I opted for the steak, a ribeye of about 200gms to be specific. Although it was a bit more cooked than the medium-rare asked for, it was still tender, juicy and flavourfully seasoned. If you love potatoes, you'll enjoy their homemade fries because firstly, there's plenty! Secondly, this was the real deal being made fresh with the skin left on (which gives the fries extra crispiness and more flavour). The salad was a very lightly dressed pile of butter lettuce and a few tomato slices - it did the job of refreshing my palate. On the table were three bottles of sauces imported all the way from Columbia: Hot & Sweet Mango, Habanero Mustard and BBQ. The first two were really yummy and I couldn't stop dipping my steak and fries in them.
To be absolutely frank, you should not come to Braseiro expecting humongous meats of the best quality (even the piece of roast chicken I stole from someone else's plate was quite dry) but let's be realistic. For the price and quantity, this qualifies as a pretty good value meal. Especially for those with a big appetite who can polish off mountains of fries.

Deliciously fatty, topped with caramelized onions, and a flavorful red wine jus. The mashed potatoes are the bomb as well!! I've got nothing but praise for this dish 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Hands down the most picture perfect item on the menu! This was a refreshing start to our meal but the general consensus was...not enough alcohol!! 🌟🌟🌟

The Betterfield is renowned for its quality and affordable fare but not many people know that they actually do serve pastries too. My favourite (quite straightforward) out of the lot has definitely got to be the Key Lime Pie which has a slight tang in the curd and buttery crust. There's definitely potential and room for improvement in the taste.

Definitely worth the trip down here with amazing ambience, food & friendly staff! 😌 Happy Saturday yall!

What did you wake up to today? Tried pan fried cheong fun for the first time today. It was super awesome w the XO sauce(or whatever that spicy hei bi thing was)! Yum.
