This place serves a lot of dishes (1 Fusionopolis Place #01-10, 6320-3477), but it got some attention online for its gukbab, especially given the frenzy around Um Yong Baek. Unfortunately, that set up the wrong expectation, as the broth wasn't as rich and savory, and the banchan here was unremarkable too. I still ate it all, and don't mind coming back if I'm nearby. But it's a far cry from Um Yong Baek.
Overall, Hoodadak does serve pocket-friendly lunch sets with generous portions and the flavours were decent enough. While I will not consider them my favourite Korean restaurant, it is nice to have a decent Korean restaurant around the office when I am craving Korean food
Quite oily and salty smoked duck aglio olio with chilli spaghetti, with 4 pieces of cold smoked duck, in a plastic bowl, with plastic utensils, at $18.80. A dish somewhat incongruous with the settings, from ex-chefs formerly operating at bazaars
Overall, the meals were quite nice in flavour although the price is on the mid-high end for lunch but given the quality of the food served, it is worth a splurge every now and then. I would not mind visiting again to try their 12-hour braised five-spice apple pork bowl

Sedap! Nasi Lemak is located at B1 of United Square Mall at Novena. They served Nasi Lemak Kukus which is steamed coconut rice.
Marcy Cafe is a breath of fresh air from the other eateries in the area, and is a good place to make a pit stop to escape the heat, and their acai bowls are definitely worth a try!
First impression counts and the thing that intrigued me when I walked past One Fattened Calf (OFC) a few weeks ago was that it would take ...
Another homegrown brand, One Fattened Calf is opened by a husband and wife duo serving delicious hearty burgers.
The OFC Cheeseburger was moist and oily, with a patty that was textured with grist and tender and crusty charred on the outside, bun that was soft and slightly soaked, onions and pickles that weren’t too out there in terms of sourness but cut through some of the grease, and a very nice sweet and slightly piquant sauce that brought everything together and had a slight punch. One of my new favourite burgers.
