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.
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.
Food at Creamery Boutique Ice Creams is all about desserts, a blend of Western and Asian flavours, focusing on artisanal small batch ice cream and home made cookies.
Prices are comparable to other dessert parlours, budget about SGD $10 per person.
All in all, with it's contender KOOKS Creamery that has been around for some time, Creamery Boutique is in a fierce competition.
Antea Social is a contemporary teahouse that encourages you to slow down, relax and embrace the present as you sip on teas from the Orient.
We are already planning our next visit. Antea Social will be my go-to teahouse to escape from the world outside, aptly named indeed.
Make sure you take a whiff of the tea before you drink it as the aroma was simply wonderful!
Black Fairy Coffee 131 Tyrwhitt Road https://www.blackfairycoffee.com/ Meal Brunch
Positioned as a dessert, the Banana French Toast (SGD $7.50) was saved because of its toppings.
Black Fairy Coffee is an artisanal cafe, restaurant and sports bar all rolled into one.
With an interesting range of gelato, good coffee & beer, Sweet Cheeks Gelato Lavender is a nice spot for refreshment or late night treat
Guests will not want to miss the chance to photograph the bar counter which changes color daily, as per the Thai culture to assign a color to a different day of the week to garner blessings from the heavens.
Despite Wimbly Lu being a chocolate café, my personal favorite would be the Lemon Meringue Pie ($7).
It is a very pleasant and cosy dessert place. The prices are reasonable and their waffles remain one of our all time favourites.
The menu does set itself apart from your typical cafe offerings, and the items I’ve ordered certainly were more hits than misses. I can definitely see myself making return trips to D’Vine Cafe, both for the vibes as well as the food!
If you enjoy communal dinning with some unusual offering, and especially when it is late night, why not try out alittle tashi.
I find this place quite Instagram-worthy and the environment really amused me. Comparing food wise and ambiance, I will prefer the latter as food was quite standard besides their specialties of Tiramisu in Glass Jars.
Perhaps having not tried the meals courses here, it will give be a good reason to be back here again!
I am glad that The Tiramisu Hero continues to thrive and I would visit it again should I be in that area. The charming cafe has good food and coffee and their refreshing light tiramisu is a delight.

For my first visit in many years, I wouldn’t be satisfied with just hokkien mee at Golden Mile Food Centre . I walked a few rounds and decid...
If you’re looking for a compelling argument to give pig liver a try, there’s a hawker stall you need to visit—Jin Xi Lai (Mui Siong) Minced Meat Noodle.
Jin Xi Lai (Mui Siong) Minced Meat Noodle, situated in Yi He Eating House, boasts a BCM recipe that’s more than 50 years old!
Before and After - fascinating that we managed to cleaned everything up! Although the atmosphere and environment weren't as nice and comfortable as Sum Dim Sum, the dim sum here were actually pretty good. Would be back again; hopefully with my parents to try other signature dim sum at Dim Sum Haus Sg !
Dim Sum Haus in Jalan Besar. Check out their Seasonal Menu!
The Japanese dumpling, is a twist to the usual spicy wantons. Nice and of a good sized but I prefer the original sauce for that spicy kick.
Overall, it is a decent experience. If you can't get a seat at Swee Choon Tum Sum, this is always a decent option. It opens daily and till late for Friday and Saturday.
No doubt that their dim sum was freshly made with traditional recipes, there are still many competitors out there for their dim sum which can be better and worth the money spent. The time we spent in the queue did not make justice to our meal here. Perhaps, it's best to make a reservation before heading down there.
This was a satisfying birthday lunch and no doubt I would be back again! Three items deserved a re-order and they shall be the Wolfberry with Mushroom Siew Mai, the Signature Hot & Spicy Dumplings and the Signature Pandan Crispy Pork Bun!
I wouldn't say no to this comfort bowl of childhood favourite. They are opened daily 9.30am to 5pm but closed on Wednesday. I bet you will feel the same that the queue is worth waiting for!
Someone had warned me :“don’t bother to try the sungei road laksa as the portion is really small nowadays and standard isn’t as great as bef...
Hawker food with long history is hard to come by in Singapore. If you have not yet tried Sungei Road Laksa, it is worth the trip to Jalan Besar for a taste of how Laksa is prepared and served in the past. I left feeling very satisfied.
I'm not a shareholder if anyone was suspecting. I just like their food.
Swee Choon Tim Sum is one of Singapore's oldest Dim Sum restaurants.
Swee Choon has been one of my to go to places for supper since my clubbing days.

Fried Hokkien prawn mee used to be the main dish I ordered most frequently until my decision to restrict and severely cut down on carbohydrate intake for stuff like rice, noodle and bread.
YouFu Fried Hokkien Prawn Noodle YouFu Fried Hokkien Prawn Noodle by twentysomething Andre Ong couldn’t have bopped onto the scene...
Promising young Hokkien Mee hawker. Andre really gives his Hokkien Mee a good char before adding the stock which results in flavourful noodles which have fully absorbed the prawn stock!
I love how every component in this bowl of porridge is coming together beautifully not just in terms of flavors but textures as well.
This was something I would eat very often if I stayed nearby, if not for the wait and the heat. My favourite porridge in Singapore, together with Soon Lee at Clementi.
Johore Road Boon Kee Pork Porridge is located along Veerasamy Road. They specialize in Hainanese porridge and their porridge is visibly grainier and thicker than Cantonese or Teochew porridge.
