Takayama, the kappo-style Japanese fine dining restaurant by Chef Taro Takayama in OUE Downtown Gallery, has carved its mark as the place for authentic Japanese flavors. This Spring, it invites all for a taste of freshness with a menu curated from seasonal Spring specialties in ingredients like Awabi abalone, firefly squid, surf clams, strawberries, and more.
While a meal at Takayama doesn’t come cheap, the quality of the dishes is sublime and refined in a Japanese style dining ambience. Go for it if you enjoy kappo-style omakase, though you might want to save it for a special occasion.
It is a small team at Masa Saito where the service is sincere. I also like its inconspicuous entrance. This is not a traditional sushi omakase or kaiseki, and if you are looking for a more modern take on omakase, Masa Saito is worth a try.
A must-try item I feel is the Wagyu Teppanyaki (200gm/$27.80).
The restaurant serves vegan, gluten-free, allium-free options, which is good news for people with different dietary preferences to dine together.
I was surprised to find the food served at The Garden Club to be so tasty despite being vegetables.
The amount of rice that they gave in that small bowl above was almost laughable though, so I topped up with their spicy tomato butadon, which I ended up liking a lot better.
Tokachi Tontaro makes Premium Butadon accessible and we can enjoy it in a beautiful, quiet ambiance - providing us a temporary respite from the rat race of Singapore's financial hub.
All the dons can be upsize to include Onsen Egg, Tofu salad and drink. Adding the Onsen egg and mix it together with the rice, definitely up the satisfaction by a notch.
Decor was casual and simple, the counter manned by staff in a cute black latte-art T-shirt. They serve fine artisanal European coffee as well as simple pastries and sandwich items.
For the price-point, HRVST did well in achieving well-plated dishes with good mix of flavours.
Its in-house restaurant and bar - HRVST, is a vegan concept that serves a full menu of vegan starters, mains and bar snacks, aims to craft an alternative commonplace to change perceptions, to provoke thought and deliver impact.

A trip to Maxwell to da bao brought us to some of our favorites and some new experiences too. China Street Fritters and their Ngoh Hiang, Liver Rolls, Egg Slice and Sausage with Bee Hoon.

Birds Of A Feather 2022 115 Amoy Street #01-01 https://www.birdsofafeather.com.sg/ Pork Dumplings (SGD $17)
Overall, this is the first time I came to BOF and I totally enjoyed the food here. Instead of the overpowering spicy Sichuan cuisine, most of the dishes have been well thought out, multi-layered yet balanced, delicious and well-executed.
Popular Sichuan-Western restaurant Birds Of A Feather located at Amoy Street spots a new menu, after a year long exploration and research by Executive Chef Eugene See.
Dishes are generally still good, though prices have also gone up as with most establishments in Singapore.
The highlight was the Nasi Lemak so we ordered the signatures and side dishes to try for 5 of us.
Oh well… food and services are good and we will surely be back next time.
If you haven't been here, I hope the executive set lunch is reason enough for you to come by!
The duck confit was ok, and the seafood bouillabaisse was awesome, rich and flavourful with a mountain of seafood.
Overall, there are more misses than hits at LeVeL33 Craft-Brewery Restaurant & Lounge. It may not be worthwhile even with a scenic view.

The One-Michelin starred restaurant at Duxton Road Restaurant JAG spots a new Autumn Menu, and it extends the herb driven cuisine by Chef Jeremy.
Restaurant JAG is not your typical French restaurant and its uniqueness is certainly what earned it its Michelin star.
The baristas share their passion for coffee with customers both from Japan and from abroad as they go about their day. It is their aim to make coffee a part of customers’ daily lives just as much as it is a part of theirs.
For those who love coffee and enjoy cafe hopping, I bet that Baristart is something that cannot be missing out from your list for they are the first c
Cream puff's pretty good. Reminded me of those from Beard Papa.
The Feather Blade definitely attracts a younger dining crowd with its competitive pricing and location in the buzzing Tanjong Pagar Road which is surrounded by numerous Korean restaurants. You can’t go wrong with their steak here, and if you fancy, some cocktails to go along.
It’s a place—price-point and food-wise—that young people would like.
Really adult and almost manly handshake burger, which was an off the menu item.
I have been to at least 4 other outlets of Peach Garden Chinese Restaurant for their dim sum buffet and a la carte Chinese dishes buffet. A notable household name in Singapore, many Chinese families will choose Peach Garden as their venue for weddings or birthday celebrations. Serving authentic Cantonese cuisine, Peach Garden has strong accolades from publications like Singapore Tatler and Wine and Dine
A must-have delicacy for the Chinese New Year, the Black & White Sesame Nian Gao is soft and chewy with a very subtle hint of black sesame.
All Peach Garden restaurants are open throughout Lunar New Year, including first and second day of Lunar New Year.

Esquina has been on the list for awhile and my birthday dinner was there. I enjoy Tapas and small bites and hoped the experience would be a great one! The star of the show is the Suckling Pig.
Wonderful experience at Esquina, few years too late but i'm glad they're still around! Definitely not my last visit for sure.
we concluded the meal, relishing in yet another happy dining experience at Wine And Chef.
Very ordinary squid ink pasta – I couldn’t taste the uni in the sauce at all.
