Cold Storage Specialty

Cold Storage sells fairly fresh sushi and sashimi sets at their Japanese counters, which are great for snacking. And healthy too! This was their Salmon Sushi and Maki Set ($5.80), convenient, fresh and really value-for-money.

Bakery on O'Connell, Adelaide

Image
Our #1 Australia-holiday tradition is hunting for and eating meat pies. It's our favourite Australian comfort food, and we can never get worthy alternatives back home in SG.Really, no visit Down Under is complete without "stuffing our pie-holes with pie". So, we were in Adelaide city, and heard of the award-winning, very literally named, Bakery on O'Connell . Their pies at priced at A$5 each, and we bought a bunch of them for tea. I didn't think it was possible to have a bad pie in Oz, but by golly, these were the worst pies we've ever had. The pastry was lacking in that buttery flaky texture, and the fillings were insipid; what an utter wash out. The bakery may have been great, but that was once upon a time, and that time has long passed. Suffice it to say, we didn't finish the pies. The red wine sauce was too sweet and unbalanced against the dry, stringy stodgy beef in the Chunky Steak . A most one-dimensional pie. The best thing about the...

Chijmes Lei Garden Restaurant

Image
We ushered in 2011 with the January L.A. Lunch at Lei Garden . This is one of my favourite Cantonese restaurants and in my opinion, one of the best best dim sum restaurants in Singapore. If you're looking to impress your finicky grandmother, or are meeting your potential in-laws for the first time, or are bringing your VIPs out for a business lunch , this is a fail-safe, go-to place. Having hailed from the land of dim sum that is Hong Kong, their food is exquisite, consistent and authentic. Prices commensurate with the quality of Cantonese cuisine here, of course, so expect to pay about $80 per person for a good meal, sans alcohol. Put it this way, if you are the type that constantly needs to use the calculator to keep track of the bill whilst ordering, this is so not the place for you. We had the private room with 2 tables of 10 seats, which offers an adjoining open-air terrace for diners to take a quick smoke break between the courses. Please note that there's a spendin...

Hyang-To-Gol Korean Restaurant

Image
It's been a while since we last ate Korean food. Although I'm not particularly fond of Korean food, the Hubs is susceptible to the occasional craving for Korean cuisine, or as he calls it, "the food of his motherland". Well, he did grow up eating Korean food on a daily basis afterall. Anyways, the Hubs had been hankering for some kimchi jjigae, his favourite childhood comfort food, so we headed to the only place in Singapore that he considers authentic enough to satisfy his craving for Korean food, Hyang-To-Gol at Amara Hotel .  This time, we brought Kang along as well, because he's about the only person who shares the same love for beef with the Hubs. We were surprised to find that the quality of the food seemed to have gone down, and the overall experience was just a little blah. The food's still above average, but we just didn't get the "oomph" feeling that we did the previous time . Maybe they do better during dinners. It didn't help...
