There does not seem to be much chatter about Banchong Cafe. With its inviting environment and affordable nice food and beverages, we would expect it to be crowded but it was not.
Nice, airy and atmospheric cafe. The kopi peng tended towards milky and smooth. Not bad.
Banchong Cafe is sure to be a favorite with the office workers in the area; a spot not just for quality breakfast that is affordable, but one that is also conducive for casual meetings and everyday meals as well.
There are a lot of Thai places at Aperia Mall these days, but I won't go back to this one (12 Kallang Avenue #01-42A). That larb above wasn't sour nor spicy enough, didn't have much rice powder, and was served warm. I didn't like their tom yum soup either, as it was rather sweet.
Dragon Bowl prides itself as Singapore's answer to Bi Feng Tang cuisine, known to be stronger in taste, heavy use of bean paste and uniquely Cantonese.
Definitely a place worth returning for, because of the quality food at reasonable pricing and excellent service.
Drop by Au Croissant if you’re craving some fun-flavoured croissants or toasty freshly-baked goods!
The Diner is still worth checking out if you’re in the Lavender area and are up for wacky fusion creations such as Seafood Laksa Pasta ($12), Tsukune Burger ($12) and Truffle Mac & Cheese Balls ($8) at affordable prices.
Overall, the lunch at The Diner by The Travelling C.O.W. was good.
However, KACYO Singapore’s newest venture, GOHAN CAFE by KACYO could be the reason to pop by this relatively quiet mall. I dislike eating in an extremely noisy and packed restaurant, so if you’re like me, the cosy and quiet environment will suit you well.

I'm not a shareholder if anyone was suspecting. I just like their food.
Would love to be back soon! Maybe with one basket of otah and another basket of curry siew mai. And maybe more deep fried items. Plus, of course, the yummy lava buns!
I like what I had; consistency was smooth although flavor was on the bland side. What I enjoyed most was that there were plenty of ingredients inside, and the generous amount of century eggs definitely enhanced the flavor of the congee! Only thing I regretted, not adding an egg!
Happy Congee, 滿粥了, porridge, jalan besar
Wan He Lou is located just beside the popular Heng Hwa Cuisine Restaurant, Ming Chung among those historical-looking facades in Maude Road. They are serving Chinese Cuisine at an affordable pricing and their award-winning Lobster Porridge has been the pride of the restaurant. If you are looking for Lobster Porridge as well as some mouth-watering Chinese dishes, do visit them.
The dining space was pleasant and service was friendly. The food was good and prices were reasonable.
What a good meal we had indeed. I do not mind return to either of their restaurant for more delicious food!
The hotel was re-opened in 2012 with a re-design done by Tiah Nan Chyuan and his team from local design firm, FARM.
We are not a big fan of the decor and atmosphere of Enjoy Eating House and Bar @ Jalan Besar. However, the food we tried were enjoyable. The menu is fairly extensive and prices are reasonable.
Besides the puffs, the Malay stall also offers items like Nasi Lemak. This will be another breakfast option while waiting for your traditional Kopi, eggs and toasts at Heap Seng Leong.
Heap Seng Leong Coffeeshop, the old school coffee shop you have to visit.
curry not tasty & puff a bit chewy doughy.
Since everything is handmade here, there is only so much they can produce in one day. Now that you know, if you want these laborious work of love, you have to make the effort to come early for it.
Considering the price, its real value for money, especially its beef balls!
One amazing thing about Singapore is that people are passionate about food and that results in a high concentration of eateries; many of whi...
Their food ordering system felt out of place. There was no physical menu and we were asked to browse what they had via their website.
An absolute cannot-miss, the Signature Char Siew ($18 for 300gm) was decadent, sinful, and all kinds of delicious. Sticky, luscious, melty, it was redolent of honeyed nuance and smoky char.
The restaurant also carries a respectable range of ciders and ales for diners to complement their meal with.
Thankfully the years of Michelin stardom do not seem to have adversely affected the appeal of the Singapore Michelin Star Hawker Bak Chor Mee. The thought of long queues was the reason we had not visited them in a while. It seems that the situation is not too bad during off-peak hours.
This Teochew-style pork noodle was started from a pushcart in 1932 before moving into a coffee shop in 1939 at Hill Street then moved to Mar...
This was the bak chor mee of the one Michelin star fame. The sauce here tasted just right, with a balanced tartness and savouriness. There was care taken with every ingredient, such that everything tasted great, including the meatballs which were outstanding in terms of texture and freshness.
The roast duck has a crispy skin, with firm meat but may be slightly dry in my opinion.
Definitely worth many return visits despite its location.
When it’s good, they are the best sio bak in Singapore, and perhaps the best char siew. But when it’s bad, it’s disappointing.
The mutton meat and ribs were just slightly gamey, fragrant and seriously fall off the bone tender, but with that bit of nice chewiness. The ribs had that slight bit of fattiness for additional flavour and texture. Good stuff, just a bit gentler and probably less oily than the sup kambing I remember from Commonwealth Drive.
A family business established since 1955, the stall specialises in Soup Kambing (mutton soup). Currently jointly operated by second generation Mr Hajamaideen...

At least the dumpling was decent, big in size and had a crunchy bite. The star of the dish was really the noodles with the special sauce. Not too sure that it is worth the $5 price tag.
The dumplings, I must admit is one of the best I have had with any Wanton Mee.
A resounding yes. Some may dispute if it is worthy of the long wait, but at least for me, the wanton noodles is a taste I am fond of.
Ming Chung is an unpretentious Henghwa or Henghua restaurant serving simple but tasty traditional dishes at reasonable prices.
deinitely a good choice of eating place not only for those who enjoy the food but also serve a wonderful family gathering meal places during weekends especially.
Authentic Heng Hua cuisine is really hard to find in Singapore these days. Ming Chung is a gem.
It is an old hardware store converted into a cafe. They also have a workshop/shop on the second floor that sells handmade stuff. They are super famous so be sure to come early or avoid lunch hours as it is crowded. The Nearest MRT station is Bendemeer MRT Station.
Overall, the food was tasty and with such a rustic environment, it's hard not to come back again.
Chye Seng Huat Hardware (or CSHH) is coffee roaster Papa Palheta’s flagship store.
I definitely enjoyed the meal although both the Greatest Kon and Alex were less impressed. For me, I believe this kind of food would appeal to my mom, who is a fish lover!
