Salmon red rice and baby octopus donburi from Wild Rocket. Essentially an immensely gratifying bowl of umami wonder – the warm, pork floss-esque, prawny, salty and surprisingly sweet rice is marvellous mouth fodder in its own right, but then the slithery, soft seared salmon comes and delivers a killer tail…
Torrija from Catalunya Singapore – soft and sweet warm bread with smoked milk ice cream. Whilst the bread expertly toed the line between comfortably and dangerously sweet, the smoked milk ice cream was the gustatory equivalent of an urgent, uninhibited French kiss (tongues ahoy) with an irresistible femme fatale who…
Avocado roll from Catalunya – fresh shredded lobster wrapped in strips of avocado. The avocado dutifully serves as vest to the oceanically fresh, crunchy and voluptuously Sofia Vergara-esque lobster chunks, while elsewhere the baby fish eggs add to oral texturality (”口感”) without unnecessarily upping the salt quotient. 4/5 This was…
Lemon Steam Squid from Haha Thai. A love gift for those who itch for flirtation with oral danger – a highly citric flare blitz assaults your senses, the soup marvellously imbued with the essence of squid so thoroughly leached that the squid lies lifelessly shagged from all the flavour extraction.…

“Pasta X Chicken X Green Curry = ??” from Som Tam – pan-seared pasta with sweet and savoury Thai green curry. Essentially a most scintillating extra-marital jungle romp between instant noodle curry powder, mee rebus and green curry…if you request for it to be more spicy. The picture on the…
Crispy duck curry with cauliflower and passion fruit from Ding Dong. Essentially moist and crispy duck leg – so much duck juices upon bite in yer mouth – soaking itself in a sweet mild curry with a most zippy passionfruit tang. Comes with rice, but the shaved cauliflower serves equally…
Madagascan vanilla soft serve on double waffles from Sunday Folks. The madagascan vanilla was texturally professional – although for some reason an image of a Baygon can popped up in my head as soon as my tongue made contact – but it is likely to be one of Sunday Folks’…
Pork steak from KINS Restaurant. The slab of smokily grilled pork steak had the lean-fat ratio of a Goldilocks-versed Virgin Active gymgoer who knows many ladies fancy a little soft amidst the hard when it comes to cuddling, whilst elsewhere the mushrooms were exploding with juicy vigour and the potatoes…
