Overall, my experience at the Thomson outlet wasn’t the best but it also wasn’t the worst. Most importantly, I can see how hard the staff is working especially the aunties who are pushing the carts or trying to sit the customers.
In recent months, I had an insatiable craving for dim sum and thought a buffet format, with unlimited indulgence would make me swear off the...
Those of you who are familiar with the old Peach Garden at Thomson Plaza would be impressed with their new facelift.
Chicken Rice Takeaway, Char Siew and Dumplings
The good thing is I liked it more than the way I described it last time, as the broth was actually delicate and savory, and the chicken was nice and moist.
Recommended by ieatishootipost. The plate was a bit more watery and wetter than I liked, but full of smokiness, wok hei and umami. The prawn stock was really quite flavourful, while the crackling was crispy and flavourful too. The noodles were of just the right texture, with a bit of bite. Nice.
Despite this small letdown, the meal was still a solid one that I would highly recommend to anyone in the area. Prawnography is undoubtedly a must-visit spot for Hokkien mee lovers, especially for those who enjoy a variety of seafood and meat in their dishes.

This "whitebait mix noodle" is on Sushiro's current list of specials right now, and it was pretty good thanks to not only all of those savory toppings, but also a nice coating of oil on those noodles underneath.
Tried the snow crab leg nigiri. Not recommended. Couldn't taste the crab, not to mention the sweetness that we had expected from the meat.
I enjoyed the bara chirashi at Sushiro and wouldn’t mind going back again if ever I happen to be in the area – whether I will go down all the way to the Thomson area again specifically to have this, I am not sure.
I get a good craving for Crispy Pork at times, and instead of Siew Yoke, I crave for Lechon.
There is only one thing you should order at Lechon Republic. It’s lechon.
The pork here was tender, juicy and fragrant, and had some nice fats accompanying. The skin was a nice flaky crisp, and full of fragrance as well. The sauce was mild and sweet, and went well with the unctuous pork.
The Signature Crispy Chao Ta Bee Hoon with Seafood was really nice, crispy and dry outside, moist and flavourful inside, with serious wok hei.
Crown Prince Kitchenette is tucked away in United Square and a tad difficult to find. The JB style Fried Bee Hoon, or Chao Ta Bee Hoon, is one of its signature dishes. It wasn’t bad, crispy and wit…
Overall, the dishes are quite well done but on the salty side which we gave feedback to the chef as well. After the rebranding and revamp of the menu, I’m not sure if the dishes taste different.
Also recommended is the Beef Fried Rice ($5.00). It's greasy, but not soggy. The rice grains are likewise distinct and isolated from one another. Here you'll find beef, egg, and crunchy bean sprouts. The beef pieces are tender and cooked thoroughly.
seafood horn was very good…wokhae quite excellent, considering tapao…and a lot of ingredients..would be better even if eating at the stall…
That being said, based on personal experience, the quality here varies greatly.
It's nothing that I'll be rushing back for, but nonetheless the minced meat, cabbage, and potatoes went into my belly pretty quickly.
The avocado wasabi burger is nicely done.
It is not hard to understand the popularity of Kamome Bakery. Its breads are good. The prices are very reasonable.
I’m tempted to head back down for some soft jazz music and warm coffee. Perhaps I’ll even grab a loaf of Hokkaido milk toast on my way out.
This place (175 Thomson Road #01-175, 6258-1391) made for a convenient dinner tonight. We grabbed a portion of chadolbagi and LA kalbi, the former of which fared much better than the latter.
It's situated beside United Square and also near Udders. It was a weekday night but the cafe wasn't crowded at that time. I think it must be because of the location and also the time I went there to eat. I was there around 7pm.
The coffee at Craftsmen Specialty Coffee is consistently good. Whether hot or cold, the coffee is still the main reason to visit Craftsmen Specialty Coffee.

surprisingly lamb rack was very good.
There are many combinations you could create, and this mix of cucumber, seaweed salad, salmon and pineapple kind of work for me, it is mix of sweet, fruity and refreshing flavours balanced with the savoury, thus not too heavy on the palate.
The flavours of sweet savoury sour nutty vegetal tangy spicy are complex and layered, with a lingering heat on the palate. Good!
The impression of Poke Lulu was too similar to Aloha Poke. Especially with their format of ordering and flavour. After all, not a bad choice but if they could have an uniqueness, it would have been better.
One of the lesser-known brands is So Ramen a local brand by the breadtalk group.
Sō Ramen is ringing in their second birthday with eye-popping 1-for-1 ramen deals in the month of April, available for any ramen on their menu.
While A-Roy Thai is generally priced higher, I find the dishes mostly of decent quality for a Thai family-style meal. I am also sure many regulars would have missed its food.
Shanghai Tan specializes in 生煎包 and 小笼包, two things I love.
Simple Korean Food is perfect for me. Especially when it’s Sundubu, Beef Bulgogi Rice and Seafood Pancake with Banchan.
I kinda liked it, although it was basically just tons of salt, MSG, and chili (BTW, the spiciest option isn't very spicy). OK, they topped it up with some sliced beef too. This was from a random shop at Velocity@Novena Square called Hana K-Food (238 Thomson Road #02-25).

The Clueless Goat Cafe is cosy and serves nice food and good coffee. We like their friendly service and value for money pricing.
Ramen Lovers, Rejoice! 🍜🎉 Try their signature Tonkotsu Ramen – a rich, creamy broth infused with savory goodness, topped with an array of delectable toppings to tantalize your taste buds.
The black sauce was decently smoky and spicy, and the egg was pleasantly savory. The food here is a little better than its plasticky outward appearance suggests.
This ramen shop didn't look very promising from the outside (101 Thomson Road #B1-04, 6015-0363), so I figured that it wouldn't be any good.
O’maj @ 273 Thomson Road is now Tomahawk an incredible rename now 100% aligned to what they excel at - cooking Tomahawk steaks
Sadly, we have not been here to O’Maj since forever what with Covid and the like and now find that it has changed the name as we heard from them when we
