I enjoyed it.
Fortunately, the saving grace is their super tangy chicken rice chili which makes everything on the plate easier to swallow.
I thought this was a good cheeseburger this time round, moist and smoky, with the sourness of the pickles and the slightly tart sauce coming through. Satisfying.
Homegrown burger stall Hammee’s Burgers is back from their brief hiatus with new and improved tweaks to their yummy burgers! Read more.
Fried chicken had a nice crisp turmeric batter that sealed in the juices in the meat.
Checking out New Lucky Claypot Rice 新鸿运瓦煲饭which was listed in the Michelin guide. The chicken claypot rice was cooked to order, thus there was a long wait.
New Lucky Claypot Rice at Holland Village serves a mean claypot, but avoid the soups.
The dining frenzy passed quickly and everything quietened down around 8pm when the wave of customers finished their dinner.
243 Holland Avenue, Singapore 278977, open Mon to Sun 11am to 2:30pm, 5:30 to 9:30pm

Their grilled fishes were quite nicely done and there's a kaisen chahan that was unexpectedly peppery. The latter wasn't a bad thing.
Holland Drive Market & Food Centre is just 5 - 8 minutes walk from Buona Vista MRT station.
Margaret Drive Sin Kee Chicken Rice, one of the top chicken rice stalls from the Hawkers.
The rice was I thought the gold standard of chicken rice – moist, oily, flavourful and fragrant with chicken stock and oil, garlic, onions and lemongrass etc.
Sin Kee is a well-known name among chicken rice stalls in Singapore, mainly serving poached chicken rice Cantonese-style.
Oh I tried their Mocha too. Coffee is not bad.

Food at Tai Cheong Bakery is classic Hong Kong tea house cuisine, focusing on snack, desserts, and light bites.
Order this to try as we saw most of the table ordering it! Turn out it was good. I can taste the truffle in every bite and the cheese was well spreaded.
Overall, Tai Cheong Bakery definitely served the comfort food that the Hong Kongers have on daily basis. It is good, but don't expect extraordinary stuff. We'll definitely make a return visit, just not very keen on spending too much time lining up. Cheers!!
The miso bowl looked a deeper brown than the regular bowl.
Overall, a decent and interesting bowls. I think there were some aspects that lowered the dining experience.
You can taste that his duck ramen is not merely by putting different components together but each process from the soup, duck and noodle is carefully thought through and probably many months of taste test until the right formula is obtained.
Burnt Ends is one of the hottest restaurants at Dempsey, Singapore. Reservations for the main dining hall open a month in advance and are quickly snapped up.
The Place Getting a table at Burnt Ends is no easy feat. I managed to check out the new Burnt Ends space in Dempsey (they have relocated from their previous Teck Lim Road outlet), all thanks to a f…
This was Burnt Ends' take on congee, and it was as delicious as it looked, especially given not just that gloriously orange egg yolk but also the wonderfully savory maitake mushroom. I was also particularly happy with his very tender chicken necks and hearts too.
The homeliness of the cuisine was felt through the dish. Though the price may be considered pricey, their portion made justice to what we were paying for. It is hardly that we come across a good authentic Italian place like this. I don't mind looking into other items in the menu if I'm back here again.
The ribeye steak with red wine sauce turned out as well as the fish. Together with the cod, it was an enjoyable western food takeaway lunch. A change from the bentos and zi char food that we tend to gravitate towards.
The lasagne was good but nothing to rave about. The taste was authentic but we think it could have done better with more meat. We would definitely try the 1-for-1 La Nonna takeaway promotion again. It is a good deal if you are looking for unpretentious Italian fare at reasonable prices. Maybe next time round we would order the La Nonna pizza again but try another pasta.
Monki 台灣小吃部 was previously at Holland Village and they have relocated to The Star Vista. Perhaps due to the restrictions in travelling, the urge and the constant search for Taiwanese Food seem unstoppable.
Very complex, tasty, moist and generous braised meat, with a strong sweet flavour. 肥瘦参半的肉燥. Nice bowl.
While this place serves up a mean plate of lu rou fan, its portion would have me think twice about coming back for it. That being said, the snowflake desserts are worth trying.
So apparently this is a well-known stall from Holland Close, but I had never heard of them until I came across a pop-up of theirs next to Marina Bay Sands today.
If Holland Close is out of the way for you, their e-commerce stall is still up and running, with exclusive dishes such as Original Tom Yum Collagen Soup for you to enjoy in the comfort of your own home.
really good! hum fresh sweet & very clean.
The fish was quite fresh, tasty and creamy. Not bad.
If there are not further constrains, the restaurants can consider selling some hot side dishes.
Umi Nami proved to be a simple, no-frills Japanese eatery. Their prices are low, but so was their generosity.

Exploring the West today! Hong Kee Porridge 鸿记粥, nestled within the charming Commonwealth Crescent Market and Food Centre, boasts over 50 years of serving up heartwarming bowls of porridge to generations of satisfied customers.
Hong Kee Porridge is a good reminiscent of home-cooked porridge that brings back the old taste.
I enjoyed that homely taste, it is a good choice for breakfast or a light lunch.
Tong Kee Chicken Rice has moved to the new Margaret Drive Hawker Centre. Be prepared to queue for their popular roast chicken!
The roast pork and char siew are generally nothing to write home about.
I am rather disappointed with their rice. I am not sure if this is a one-off mishap or this is exactly how they want their rice to be? If so, then I am not too big a fan of it.
If you're popping by for dinner, and craving something Asian or more local, Provisions might just be what you're looking for. Oh yes, prices are nett here!
Overall, it was definitely an exciting experience. I like the concept of skewers and claypot rice cocktail bar.
The food is comforting here, and very satisfying in fact. Environment is spot on for a Dempsey-style nights out. Definitely amongst my to-go at Dempsey now, but can we get some discounts on the skewers?
Black Marble, a steak and grill concept by respected culinary veteran Chef Otto Weibel, is set to take you on a gastronomical journey with its brand-new menu mainstays!
Lobster and scallop saffron risotto was very good.
Specialising in grilled items, Black Marble selectively sources meats from Australia, Japan and USA, and they will be all chargrilled to bring out the best of their qualities for you to savour upon.
Overall, I highly recommend this stall if you crave affordable and delicious humble Malay dishes like the Mee rebus, lontong and even Nasi Lemak
Monster Curry serves Japanese style curry rice meals in humongous 41-cm plates, featuring its signature “demi-glace” curry sauce, perhaps the only one of its kind in Singapore.
