Grand Marnier Crema Catalana from Milagro Spanish Restaurant at Orchard Central. Essentially your standard crème brûlée but with sassy unwashed blonde hair, being inappropriately high on sangria (and Grand Marnier, of course) and warbling lines such as “lucky that my breasts are small and humble so you don’t confuse them…
Milk cake, passionfruit sorbet and toasted almonds from Bochinche. Tastes exactly as its name describes – a winsome, orgiastic union of milk and cake, with the passionfruit sorbet bringing some tartiness to the party. 4/5 This was a hosted meal, courtesy of Bochinche. Bochinche 22 Martin Road #02-01 Singapore 239058
Crab & Humita Croquettes with Spicy Criolla Sauce from Bochinche. The crabmeat, possessing the gentle mushiness of a newly-in-love Saint Margaret’s Secondary School student, was so gloriously steamy it should come with a parental advisory. 3.8/5 This was a hosted meal, courtesy of Bochinche.

Classic provoleta, almonds & oregano honey from Bochinche. The playfully sweet, honey-soaked provoleta has the stringiness of the most refined mozzarella as well as the soft, resilient elasticity of chewing gum, and the soft fluffy bread wraps around it with the sensuality and comfort of a body-sheathing taffeta gown. 4.2/5…
Superior Lobster Fortune Pot from Mitzo – braised lobster in Mao Tai wine, abalone, dried scallop, flower mushroom, sea cucumber, deep-fried fish maw, dried oyster, roast duck, cabbage, lotus root, white radish, roasted pork belly, and fa cai. Quite the blockbuster experience. The roasted pork belly’s skin is gloriously crispy…
Kaisen don from The Sushi Bar. The formidably girthed smorgasbord of raw ocean is guaranteed to stave off your sashimi craves for at least forty-six days, perhaps too efficiently – the cuts are on occasion remarkably trying on one’s teeth, as you will find yourself adjusting your in-mouth content to…
Aburi Kaisen Don from The Sushi Bar. Evoked the feels I had when I discovered that a Komodo Dragon didn’t breathe fire or fly. Only the scallop emerged from the searing process a radically improved goddess – elsewhere, while the seductive aroma of melted fish fat permeated the air, the…
Anchovy rice balls from Masizzim Singapore. Essentially a feisty chilli padi-ikan bilis rice experience, with the mucky fun of sculpting and playing with balls – you get served a big bowlful of rice with gloves to do as you please – absolutely on the house. 3.8/5 This was a hosted…
Swicy Hot Chick from Black Nut – sweet and spicy gochujang chilli wings. Essentially chicken wings coated in a sticky, carrot cake chilli-esque sauce that will cheekily (chickily?) find its way all over your mouth. 3.6/5 Black Nut 2 Emerald Hill Singapore 229287
