Ujikintoki Green Tea Kakigori from Sakurazaka. The bitter, milky green tea ice wore its Tsumori Chisato dress with a refined dignity and poise, while elsewhere even the luxuriously chewy shiratama tasted like it shops at the Mandarin Gallery and high-teas at the Ritz Carlton. 3.9/5 This was a hosted meal,…
Tiramisu Kakigori from Sakurazaka. Essentially a zen and harmonious union between a gracefully-perfumed tiramisu with a most spongy-soft bottom and an ice kachang with inner poise who attends ballet lessons and plays the viola. 3.7/5 This was a hosted meal, courtesy of Sakurazaka. Sakurazaka 24 Greenwood Avenue Singapore 289221
Sukiyaki set with Japanese Wagyu-Holstein F1 Crossbreed Striploin and Ribeye from Sakurazaka, a new shabu-shabu concept at Greenwood Avenue. Essentially a gloriously tummy-warming and cleanly robust send-up of that familiar sukiyaki sweetness. Elsewhere, the Bukit Timah-esque quality of the beef on hand offers one lesson – taboo and adventurous yet…

Garlic dominates the conversation, whilst elsewhere those equipped with Mario-esque levels of evasion can actually cleanly avoid the vicious scarlet traps without any consequence. 4.2/5…
Violet’s Big Breakfast from Violet Oon Singapore – otak otak, turmeric chicken wing, sambal egg, nasi kuning, and a side of tangy ikan bilis and peanut sambal. Whilst the otak was nicely meaty, the scrambled egg was gloriously fluffy and soft within its seemingly omelette-esque skin and the different sambals…
Otak Toast from Violet Oon Singapore. While the stubborn baguette-esque toast had the moisture of a Thirsty Hippo-guarded closet, the opulent and corpulent otak slab – none of that minced nonsense, you can clearly see fish when you observe the otak’s cross-section – had a remarkably chicken-like tenderness. 3.8/5 Violet…
Full English breakfast with “foot-long” sausage from Claude’s – scrambled eggs, stewed beans, hashbrown, bacon, roasted tomatoes, chunky salsa, warm bread and fresh salad with parsley crumble and truffle butter. Not your typical brunch experience, flavour-wise. The girth of the masculinely spicy, Chinese-esque and well-endowed sausage was ideal for easy…
