Mavrx Coffee Apothecary serves nothing except a good cup of coffee. Concept is sort of similar to Nylon's Coffee. Just make a choice from either a black or white coffee, make cash payment and enjoy your brew standing or share a seat at the limited space available.
Recently tried the handmade Red Bean Rice Dumpling specially imported from Din Tai Fung Taiwan. The soft and chewy glutinous rice is stuffed with finely mashed mild-sweet red bean paste.
Instead of the usual triangular wrap, the dumpling comes in an unique rectangular shape. Enjoy it for only $5.50 per piece, or get yours complimentary with a min. spend of $100 (or $90 for Citibank cardmembers) at all outlets valid till end of June.
My Kuali's Penang White Curry Noodle created a huge buzz when it was introduced to Singapore in 2014. A new offering of Penang-style prawn noodle is now available at all Cold Storage and Giant stores.
On this special occasion, I made mommy lunch with this homestyle Penang Prawn Noodles from My Kuali boasting a well-balanced crustacean taste and hitting the notes of spiciness and sweetness.
What you think or buy doesn't matter, it is what you do and the thoughts that really counts. Even superheroes need a break. Mommy was gleaming with a smile when she saw me in the kitchen.
Bara Chirashi and Avocado Soft Crab Shell Maki from Chirashi Tei located at 5th level of 313 @ Somerset within the Food Republic premises.
The Bara Chirashi was adequate for only $9.90 nett (U.P. $19.90 for Chirashi set), but I wouldn't mind paying more for premium quality.
Late lunch at Din Tai Fung as we waited close to an hour for a table. Having our favorite pork chop fried rice and XLB is all worth the wait.
Crown Bakery, one of the latest cafe at Bukit Timah offers a wide array of bread and pastries, all day breakfasts including this one & only sourdough buttermilk waffle that's crisp and featherlight with a delightful mild tang.
Sidenote, if you still planning to get a classic timepiece from Daniel Wellington, my discount code DwAlain will end by May 15.
Having eaten a couple of tarts before, this is the first time that I've actually conquered 8/10 tarts within a week. Was stoked to find out that Cheryl just revealed a tart sweet pineapple in a strawberry form.
Featuring the forefront Pineberry tart, an exotic fruit that’s extremely juicy, sweet and has a highly aromatic flavour more akin to a pineapple, but bears the white strawberry appearance.
Also tried their fresh Lemon Tart, Passion Fruit Meringue, Strassberries, Pistachio, Cacao Barry, Caramel Hazelnut and Indian Alphonso Mango. Last two not-so-exciting flavours yet to try would be the Coffee and Mixed Berries tart.
House Special Mousse with Coffee Infused Caviar, an interesting coffee dessert newly introduced at Percolate 2.0.
I think Owl cafe came out with their version of Kopi Luwak with coffee caviar sometime ago. Not sure how that works, but this new dessert does stirred up some interest in the coffee scene.
If traditional teochew pastries is your Mom's kind of thing, you might want to grab a box of Virtuous Mum Tau Sar Piah made with salty mung bean paste and bits & pieces of minced pork.
Decided to mix & match with other signature pastries such the yuan yang and the salted tau sar piah. The Mother's Day 2015 edition pastries (box of eight $12.80) are available till 10 May, while stocks last.
Today I visited a spicy side of Italy. Not many people knew (neither do I) that the Europeans actually offer some spicy dishes. Say for instance, the Arrabiata recipe but this is so much better than the typical Arrabiata. I enjoyed a pleasant burn with an abundance of difference in taste.
Featuring Pasta riccia all'nduja, a handmade flat pasta tossed in Nduja (pork), a regional creation from Abruzzo, Southern Italy. We had a fabulous lesson tonight, thank you Fabrizo for sharing your knowledge.
The boys are finally back today in action percolating after a month long hiatus of revamping their space and menu.
Percolate 2.0 is now bigger and better, they even upped the Affogato game by including a Dark Chocolate Brownie, giving you that Bittersweet sensation.
Affogato is available with Sea Salt Caramel, and don't forget to try their House Special Coffee Caviar Shooter which is really one of a kind coffee dessert.
