Welcome to Buona Vista.

tonkotsu broth was v rich!! i opted for extra spicy and extra hard noodles🔥

Twist is my go-to for take-away pasta.

They have many unique pasta creation such as Miso Butter & Gochujang. But my favourite here is the Agio Olio.

You can create your own pasta and have your own proteins as how u like it.

1) Creamy Alfredo
- I will always have either poached chicken or smoked duck in my creamy Alfredo(or both) Will feel weird if I had seafood with this. Damn shiok, especially mixed with chilli flakes and parmesan cheese.

2) Tomato Pomodoro
- I will only have seafood with this, feels a little weird with chicken. The Pomodoro is non-spicy. So I usually doused it with chilli flakes for the extra kick. Seafood was fresh

3) Aglio Olio
- My favourite pasta here, will always have it with smoked duck. Will usually request for more garlic and more chilli flakes for this.

Ordered some classic Chinese Dishes for the cold rainy night

-Fried Rice with Fresh Crab Meat, Egg White and Dried Scallop ($24++ for small portion, good for 2-3 pax): I thought the fried rice was too bland! There was not a lot of crabmeat. plus peach garden does not have sambal chilli sauce, which I thought was essential for Chinese tzechar restaurant.
-Fried Carrot Cake with XO Chilli Sauce ($15++)

We recently tried Gyu-Kaku’s new buffet menu, currently available at a promotional price of $48.80 until November 14. For a popular BBQ spot like this, the price offers good variety and is quite a value compared to their usual menu options.

Some highlights were the two flavors of Gyutan (beef tongue), Karubi, and Rosu – excellent picks for those who enjoy a wide selection. As a regular at Gyu-Kaku, having tried all their menus, I did notice a difference in quality with the new buffet menu. The meat texture was a bit chewier than usual, and the flavor didn’t have the same rich, beefy depth as before.

Still, it’s worth a try for the price, especially for anyone looking to enjoy a BBQ meal without overspending. A good choice for variety and value.

I tried this special dish but it wasn't quite the 剁椒鱼头 style I expected. Too sour. Probably won't order this again. But the signature trio dish is still quite good.

Check their Instagram for updates before coming, as they sometimes open pop-up shops at events.

Signature OG burger comes with 2 beef patties, caramelised onions, Cheese & Mayo.

The beef patties were ucey juicy and perfectly charred at the edges for a little crisp in the patties.

One of the better burgers I had. Damn shiok. Maybe 3 patties next time.

This is another stall that has a queue in the morning for their popular wanton noodles in Cantonese style.

Comes with few pieces of wanton, char siew and veggie. Toasted well with the sauce and chili.

Yong Tau Foo fans and Kolo Mee fans, why not have both? Lao Chen Ji from Holland Drive Food Centre serves both at once and I must say, it was simply incredible.

The noodles may seem plain, but it was packed with flavour as it was nicely tossed in their chilli sauce and other seasonings. Loved how the noodles were really springy and had loads of umami! Chilli wasn't too spicy as well! So glad I got the large portion of noodles as it was simply addictive 😍 The YTF pieces were pretty great as well, as quite some meat was stuffed within the pieces. Although the meat within might be more light tasting, the soup was robust and quite naturally flavoured by what I believe are yellow beans. 5 pieces of YTF and a large portion of noodles were priced affordably at $5.40 too.

Definitely coming back for more! The queue during lunch time might scare you but it does move quite fast!

Their ice cream flavours like mango sorbet, strawberry, pistachio, 70% dark choco are my fav. Waffles not my preference as I like crispy waffles. This was quite eggy and not very crispy.
