I have been a bad girl the past week, mostly to my tummy because i have been eating a lot of junk food! I'm quite the junk food monster actually. Fried food always tastes so good! :( Add that overseas work trip into the equation and all that irrepressible holiday eating and the result is one helluva fattyfat girl. :(( Gonna be working my butt off at yoga this week. Shall try to break my personal best of 4h. :)) 

Back to the topic of fast food, i gotta recommend this particular juicy heavyweight. Since this picture popped up on my instagram, friends have been asking me where i had such a yummy looking burger. I was raving about it like a mad woman (that's how awesome it is). So the secret is revealed- it is EwF's Har Jeong Kai Burger! RWARRR!!

Disclaimer: I have only eaten ONE burger here and it's from the Orchard Central outlet. I can't comment on the other burges but i've heard that the Char Siew Burger is quite yummy too. EwF is the fast food version of Everything with Fries so it's just burger,fries and desserts.

Har Jeong Kai is a typical Cantonese dish which is actually prawn paste marinated chicken (wings usually), served with the Chinese mayonnaise. EwF transformed this zi char staple into a burger form and i must say it is a wonderful adaptation.

Think deep fried well marinated chunky whole chicken leg that is oh-so-juicy and satisfying with every single bite. The prawn paste is pungent and fragrant (really depends on your preference) and the batter is crisp and light. The patty is absolutely tender and juicy (i like to think it's the essence of the chicken and not the oil)! And if i could direct your attention to the Chinese mayonnaise (it is not the usual western mayonnaise). It's a slightly watery form, not as curdy as the western type, slightly sweet and translucent looking. Nice to see that EwF kept this traditional element of the dish because it really is the essence! 

For $9.95 or is it $9.65, you get an entire meal which includes the burger, the fries of your choice and a drink! Super Value Meal! Pick from 2 different cuts for the fries- shoestring and straight cut and five different flavors: Original, Curry, Salt & Vinegar, Sour Cream and Onion, Garlic and herbs. They are like shaker fries. Another of my love! :)) I tried the sour cream (best seller) and curry on 2 separate occasions. How can anyone say no to Curry fries with Western Mayonnaise! I am indeed a junk food monster.  

This was the leftover from my first meal at EwF. I know i can be such a small eater at times but trust me this is a really huge burger. However, the second time i finished my entire patty and more of the fries. :) Level up in the junk food chain!

Noticed how i only took hamster bites of the bread? The reason is as follows. According to EwF, all their breads are baked from scratch but honestly they are darn terrible. Extremely stale and porous, i wouldn't eat this to save my life. Then again, i am extremely picky about my breads but i maintain that this is bad. The regular KFC or Mac's buns are nicer.

For an additional $4, you can add a dessert to your meal. Crowd pleaser here is the Nutella tart, which i had at the Joo Chiat Road outlet. It's chocolatey with an oreo base, really rich. I tried their Vanilla Crepe cake for my birthday. S got it because i insisted on having a crepe cake BUT it wasn't this one that i wanted! Imagine the disappointment because their so called french crepes with light vanilla cream reminded me of the fake rubbery so-called pancakes they served me in Saigon and the cream is that kinda neighborhood confectionery fake cream (really oily and somehow waxy and tasteless). No way would i eat that again. Grrr.

Anyhoo, stick to the HJK burger and you would never go wrong. Maybe i'll try the other burgers some time. Or maybe i'll get my dining partners to order them so that i can still have my HJK burger. Yums.

Food: 4/5. -1 for the terrible bun!
Service: 3.5/5 Average service. Not particularly warm but they were patient with the indecisive me. :)
Ambience: 3.5/5 Clean and simply furnished. May get noisy with the school kids but quiet on weekday afternoons.

Greetings from Kuala Lumpur (Selangor)! Been busy with work this week plus the weekend work trip (that i'm currently on) is obviously keeping me from blogging. So here is a brunch/coffee/tea place for you to while the weekend away!

Kith Cafe has been on my radar for some time. I've walked past this a couple of times and the small establishment is also a pretty good alternative to Toby's (which is usually packed). So yeap, tucked away in the little corner of Rodyk Street, Kith caters more to the expatriates and residents (i think they are synonymous) as compared to Toby's. Not surprising since Kith has been around for a longer time and has amassed a following. 

The interior is very small- a couple of bar seats, and a long bench for a large group. Furnishing is pretty spartan, the legs of the bar and chairs reminds me of book stacks. Feels pretty much like an old classroom with the blackboard as well. The 'alfresco dining' is in fact a couple of tables and chairs/stools scattered along the corridor. Fits very much into the home and patio concept. I can see how the residents are drawn to this little spot.

The drinks list is pretty comprehensive with all the usual present and a twist on some (mostly on the teas). Chamomile+marigold+lemongrass, Sakura sencha, Rooibos lemon myrtle lemon tea, sounds good? Reasonably priced drinks are always welcomed by patrons and i was one happy girl.

Breakfast food is a must have (if i have my way that is). I would also insist on all day breakfast too. We were there for tea so we didn't try the food. I was kinda attracted to the homemade meatballs actually (if it were as good as i imagine it to be). 

Anyway, tea is never complete without scones. So we ordered a cranberry one. I was thoroughly disappointed. The thing about scones is that you can never quite tell if it's good just from its appearance. I've seen really dry and bland looking ones which turned out to have the most buttery, dense and crisp-on-the-outside texture. Kith's scone is the exact opposite- it looks pretty but tastes crappy and it got worse as the temperature dropped. The texture is almost cardboard-ish and dry. It was only a little better with the.. wait for it... WHIPPED cream (oh how i hate it when they serve whipped instead of clotted). The jam was kinda weird with the watery texture. It looks like it was curdled and then defrosted. Anyway, just avoid the scone at all cost.

My hot earl grey vanilla was much better but it tended to be too milky. However, the earl grey flavor was intense with a nice citrusy taste from the Bergamot orange and a light bitterness. It was quite sweet though, probably from the vanilla. I'm not one to complain about the sweetness of my drinks but this was a little too much.

W had the Iced Earl grey lavender + orange which IMO is a perfect thirst quencher on a hot humid afternoon. It would be my must have drinks at outdoor events like picnics. Shall try to make this some other time.

Food: 4/5 The drinks were good but i reserve my opinion on the other food items.)
Service: 3.5/5 We were advised not to order a cold latte because it wouldn't bring out the flavor of the tea. Shows that the staff know the products well.
Ambience: 3.5/5 Chill and laid back but tending on the warm and humid side! Do not sit indoors unless you can deal with the food smell.

Would be back for drinks!

Was on a shabu shabu streak some time ago and visited 2 shabu places in a span of a week. The other was at Shabu No Koya (read about it here). S convinced me to skip my yoga class to have lunch with him at Vivo (how fatty right?). We usually end up eating at Kim Gary's  because we are lazy to pick from the many other options (i love their pork chop baked rice!). However, it's lunch hour and most restaurants offer lunch sets so we decided to explore other options.

Shabuya Shabu Shabu caught our attention because S was craving for something soupy and Jap (what else is there other than shabu shabu right?). Their set lunch ranges from $15.90 - $23.90 and the second person gets the same set at a mere $9.90! Such a bargain. Seriously, $23.90 for Wagyu Beef shabu is darn cheap but $9.90 is simply mind blowing.

Our set came with Wagyu Beef, Chicken, salad, vegetable platter and rice/udon. The beef portion is not a lot but surprisingly we were pretty satisfied. A typical Wagyu Beef set (without the lunch deal) would be $33.90 but i suppose they will give you more beef?

The other lunch sets include the normal beef shabu, chicken shabu and kurobuta pork shabu. While eating, we figured there is actually no point in having wagyu beef shabu because the meat is too thinly sliced and will be boiled in soup anyway. Tip to eating Wagyu beef is to have it in steak form or for yakiniku. You can never go wrong with BBQ wagyu beef. Most decadent bbq you can have EVER.

The stock is very simple, a pork broth and another soy sauce stock. The pork broth wasn't flavorful at all and was in fact pretty bland. We ended up cooking most of our meat in the soy sauce stock to give the food some additional flavoring. The ponzu sauce was pretty mild. I would like mine with more tang. Would be good if there are other sauces available for dipping as the meats can be quite bland.
Quite a lot of stuff in our vegetable platter. Mushrooms, cabbage, corn, raddish etc.

Shabuya also has other items on their full menu i.e. Seafood steamboat, Sashimi, Tempura, Dons and the usual Japanese desserts. It's not a bad place for lunch for you working peeps in the area (since it's so cheap). I was thoroughly stuffed after the meal but we still managed some space for ice cream! So yea, it's ok to give it a try if you are sick of your usual options. Go for the normal beef shabu for extra savings.

Shall work on a new rating system. Will keep it simple using a 5 point scale. :)) Shall have a picture rating system soon. 

Food: 3/5 Average (will eat this if i don't have a particular craving and if it's convenient. Then again, jpot does a better steamboat lunch set at a similar price.)

Service: 3/5 Average

Ambience: 3/5 Average (what a typical restaurant should have).

"The quest for produce is the basis of my cuisine, together with imagination and the simplicity of those who strive for perfection."- Santi Santamaria

Santi has been on my must-eat list for ages and i finally got down to visiting them before they cease operations in Sg come 12 March due to the demise of the chef. Why didn't i go earlier?!! It is honestly the best Spanish food i've tasted so far. Fresh produce is the basis of Santi's creations and it's amazing how everything is kept simple but still tastes so out of this world. Anyway, if you are still able to make it within the week (and actually get reservations) this is a MUST TRY.

I made the boy get us a reservation at Santi pending the closure. I almost missed out on the awesome dining experience because i forgot a prior engagement. Thankfully we got ourselves another booking last minute. Gotta thank my lucky stars.

Sunday Lunch was a 4 course affair and we chose the wine pairing option with a glass for each course ($150++). We seldom do wine with food because we aren't regular drinkers but this is an opportunity we can't miss out on. And so began the afternoon of no return.

Our amuse bouche was Joselito ham served on Pa amb tomaquet and a Tomato Gazpacho (reminiscent of the hole in the wall tapas place introduced by the locals in Madrid) Joselito ham is the best of the best of Jamon Iberico. It's a Catalan dish of toasted bread served with tomato pulp and olive oil. As we chewed on, the sweetness of the cured meat simply oozes out, bringing with it a slight nuttiness. The soup was a refreshing way to cleanse our palate and prepare our tummies for more goodness.

My Scrambled organic egg with chorizo, "pied de mouton" mushrooms and baby eel was rich and creamy and yet light. This is a match made in heaven between the vitality of the gardens and the freshness of the sea.  

Piquillo pepper stuffed with Bacalao brandade (salted cod), Vizcaina sauce and Mojama. I'm not a fan of peppers but this is a great representation of the vibrancy and life of the Spaniards. Again, a nice combination of the earth and sea.  

My second glass of wine. Heavenly.

My traditional black rice with baby calamari and allioli sauce. The rice was done to perfect al-dente with a nice smokiness from the squid ink. The squid had a nice charred taste to it and was tender to the bite. Fresh produce from the sea again. I was floating by then. 

His traditional cannelloni Catalan style with bechamel sauce and seasonal mushrooms. The Cannelloni was so smooth and creamy and i like the contrasting crunch on top of the baked cheese. The mushrooms broke the monotony of the milky emulsion with the savoriness.  

I am so not a fish person and S was surprised that i ordered the Catalan fish stew with Iranian saffron for my mains. I was craving for the Cataplana that i had at El Cerdo (read about it here) and even though this doesn't have all that seafood essence, it is still a yummy dish. The red snapper and barramundi provided contrasting textures. The red snapper was tender and smooth while the barramundi was more dense and makes a better fish steak.  

His Pork pilota with "patatas al mortero", sauteed spinach and truffle sauce. Love the Patatas which had shredded potatoes with a smooth mash. S was rationing his pork pilota so that he wouldn't gobble them up immediately. Tender and juicy meat with bits of almond in the meatballs for an added crunch.

On my 3rd glass of wine (red) for my mains. Not a red fan but this was light enough. Face is turning redder as lunch progresses.

The apple tart with caramel and cinnamon ice cream has to be the best i've tasted. The tart is incredibly light and crunchy and the ratio of tart to apple was just right. Love the buttery crunch. I wished they gave me more ice cream. 

If there is one dessert i could have before i die, this would be it- The cream Catalan with peaches and vanilla. Love at all that vanilla bean! I almost died and went to desserts heaven. The best part is actually the hidden custard that the peaches were sitting on. How i wish i'm that peach. I just wanna sit in a tub of custard all day long (of course i would eat every bit of it). Desserts were paired with a Spanish Moscato which was ORGASMIC. The sommelier saw my expression when i first took a sip and took a double take just to make sure i was all right. It was like honey. I've never tasted a moscato close to that. I swear i need to find it. 

Our petits fours complimentary of the restaurant. Perfect ending to our meal. The middle hazelnut chocolate was so good S gave his orgasmic look. It was hilarious. 

This has to be the best Spanish food in Singapore. It's such a waste that they are closing. Truly enjoyed the gastronomic experience and the impeccable yet warm service. I need to fly to Spain for a Santi Santamaria culinary trip. To the man i've never met. Cheers.

Brunch recommendations for the weekend! Five & Dime is a new eatery that has popped up in the River Valley area at the most unexpected spot next to some Chinese association or temple of sorts. When i looked at the address, i thought it would be located nearer to Robertson/Mohd Sultan but it's farther down nearer to the residential area. 

The concept of Five & Dime is a modern take on the 60′s diner experience without being saturated in nostalgia or overly trend based. The black and white, wood and tile combination is a classic look that would withstand the fickle mindedness of the consumers and movements in the design field. The space is pretty small, be sure to make a reservation (it was crowded when we got there on a Sunday afternoon).

It's surprisingly comfortable at the counter area (we sat there while waiting for a table) and it gave me a good view of the coffee and cocktail making (wasn't impressed with that). I'm too used to the third wave coffee and i kinda expect yummy coffee with pretty coffee art and unyielding foam. Spoilt by circumstances, not by default. :P Recognised the bartender from Drink Culture, which does a good cocktail anytime. Suppose this is a selling point of F&D, wonderful idea to get high for brunch. :)

Coffee is served with the old school candy snacks. I used to separate the sugar from the biscuits and ate them by their colours. It's a cheap snack, the quality is pretty lousy in fact but people like it because it's pretty? If you wanna be picky, they are just being really cheapskate.

Brunch is served from 10am to 2.30pm (kitchen closes at 2) and there is a selection of 9 mains- 4 breakfast dishes (eggs benny, eggs flor, french toast and pancakes), 2 sandwiches, 2 pasta and the regular F&C. Not a lot to choose from but a fair mix of breakfast foods and heavier lunch items. We had the Eggs Benny ($16)- Poached Eggs with seared beef and the Mentaiko Pasta ($22)- a spaghetti in creamy mentaiko sauce with chicken yakitori.

Apparently, the Eggs Benny is one of the hot items here. It is served with seared beef instead of the usual ham or smoked salmon. I wouldn't say it's a better choice though as the beef is pretty bland. The hollandaise sauce was too tasteless for me, it lacks the creaminess of the butter as well as the mild tang of lemon juice. On the other hand, the brioche was overwhelmingly buttery and that contributed to the sogginess of the texture. It wasn't wet but it was a huge lump to chew on. Not a fan of the bread. The texture is just not right. Bread should be somewhat airy and this is nothing like that. It's not bad tasting, it's just a weird texture and contradicts my understanding of what a brioche should be.

S was raving about the special salad dressing which we couldn't put a finger to the individual ingredients. I'm sure there's sesame sauce in there and maybe the Vietnamese fish sauce too. Regardless, it was refreshing.

The Mentaiko Pasta was absolutely heavenly. I felt like i was floating in a pink sea with dolphins swimming around me (only because i don't like the idea of fishes coming too close). The pink cream sauce was light and extremely fragrant. The slight sweetness of the Mentaiko kept me going mouth after mouth. This is what i would call a delicate dish. You will get what i mean when you taste it. The simplicity of the condiments use on the yakitori brought out the natural flavors of the meat (it was just salt and pepper and maybe a little spice). The dish was faultless. I finished this in 12 minutes.

A meal is never complete without some coffee. The mocha here is very chocolaty and sweet. It's almost like having a hot chocolate with a shot of espresso. Sadly, the salted caramel cupcake was sold out. Maybe another time. Enjoy your weekend!

Been procrastinating about my bag posts. Was meant to write about my Balenciaga First bag which was purchased before my Yves Saint Laurent but since i have been using this more frequently (by that i meant a couple of times a month), i've decided to do this first.

So TADA! My baby textured YSL Easy bag in Ocean Blue. I got this as a Christmas/EOY bonus gift to myself last year but didn't get a chance to use it until recently (long story). I first saw this combination when i was looking for my Ametiste Bottega Veneta (read about it here). I was in a dilemma then because i love both colours. The Ametiste is a shocking pink while this is an iridescent turquoise blue (especially under sunlight). Lq said i should just get both then because that was what's gonna happen eventually and she was right. I got the YSL a month later. :P

 

The YSL is one of the most understated IT bag. The design is very simple, marked by a Y stitching on both sides of the bag which is so iconic of YSL. You will only see the logo on the zipper so it doesn't scream out loud unlike some monogrammed bags. Other details include rolled double handles, double zip fastening across the top, stud fastening panels on each side (you can expand the bag), feet on base and tonal canvas lining.

I love the thick chewy pebbled leather of my bag. It's absolutely squishy and huggable, I would carry this to bed. Reminded me of the Alexander Wang Rocco Bag which i wanted to get (read about it here). This is kinda like a lighter replacement but a smaller version. I like the medium size but my friends all seem to think that it's too big for me. I was originally eyeing this limited edition eyelet stud medium easy which is sold out all around the world and costs 3000bucks a pop here. Needless to say i didn't think it was worth shelling out the extra 1+k to get it here instead of overseas. 

RGB, primary colors that rock my world. <3<3<3

One of the few modeling pics of the bag. Notice how it's a bright blue as compared to a greyish blue under warm lighting? S thought i got 2 different bags and questioned me when he saw the pics. BOYS. I prefer the bag taller so i would make sure that it's not filled to the brim and there's some weight to hold the bag down. The leather is still not broken in because it's really new. This is quite the right size for me so you can imagine how big the medium would be on me. I look like a pin carrying that. 

Had some big problem with the bag at the start. After 2 use, i noticed cracks all around the lacquer of the handles. I immediately sent it to the store and the SA said that this is a common issue because the leather stretches and it could not be considered a defect?! She even asked if i have been carrying a lot of heavy stuff in them. Seriously wtf? A bag is meant for holding stuff, regardless of how heavy the stuff are or how expensive the bag. Needless to say i was really pissed and annoyed. Anyway they sent it for lacquering and i have been warned that the cracking is inevitable with use. I didn't even hear of such issues on the forum. So anyway, you have been warned. 

Anyway all is fine now, no extra cracks so far. It better stay that way. Nevertheless, a pretty bag and a pretty color to add on to my rainbow collection. My Blue family- Grape Mulberry Alexa, Canard Balenciaga First in RGGH and my Ocean Blue Yves Saint Laurent Easy. YUMS! 

More on my Balenciaga First soon. That would probably take another couple of months since the food posts take up most of my time. :))

Was in the Harbourfront area and had some time to kill before my next appointment so i popped by this new shopping centre called the Alexandra Retail Centre which is connected to the PSA building. Most of the shops were not opened yet but there are quite a number of eateries serving the working crowd. A little cafe caught my eye when i first walked into the building and it was none other than Room Coffee. Bar. 

The quote on their feature wall was what piqued my interest and made me double back to the cafe. "The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age." I couldn't agree more that. I don't lie about my age but i do forget my actual age most of the time. It also helps that i look like i'm 18 (according to teens that age) and i feel a lot younger than i actually am. Yoga also helps to keep the body and mind fresh and prevents aging (i'd like to think so). 

The cafe does hot and cold meals which are reasonably priced. Panini sandwiches from $8 onwards (you can make your own sandwich). The smoked duck sandwich with caramelized onions sounds yummy ($14). There are also Wagyu and Kurobuta Pork burgers, all time faves like Fish and Chips and typical bar snacks. Breakfast is served daily and they provide All-Day-Breakfast during the weekends. (Yay! Even though the selection is very small.)

Nice place to chill out or have 'meetings' away from the office. I like that there is plenty of space and the green carpeted/turf feature walls makes me feel like i'm sitting on the grass, having a picnic outdoors.

It's just really soothing sitting around doing nothing, obviously that would be ideal regardless of the location actually. I momentarily forgot about my next appointment and simply took my own sweet time enjoying my afternoon tea.

Since i wasn't very hungry, i went with the Signature Carrot cake ($6) which looks very moist with the morsels of grated carrot bits and topped with a slab of melty cream cheese icing. The presentation was enough to make my mouth water.

The texture was just right, not too packed that it's hard and dry but it's not too airy that it doesn't have bite. However, i was a little overwhelmed with the level of sweetness of the dessert. The sponge already has the cinnamon sugar flavor, which was fine on its own. However, the cream cheese frosting is potent enough to induce a diabetic coma or activate some glucose hyperactivity (the latter happened to me).

I like the little walnut and apricot tidbits which added a little crunch to the cake but they really need to cut down on the sweet in this one. The other desserts don't look too bad as well.

If you guys work in the area, i would suggest checking Room Coffee. Bar out. The sandwiches look like they are full of fresh and quality ingredients, i would have ordered one if i wasn't so full. Remember, eat slowly and enjoy every mouthful.

S has been making me eat a lot of hawker food these days. It's almost like boot camp. Warnings and demands of dining at air conditioned environments have landed on deaf ears. The weather is driving me nuts these days and after back to back hot yoga sessions, you can't blame me for being a little spoilt. :P

Our dinner destination was Le Cuisson. Boy was being secretive as usual as he led me through the maze which is Bugis Village and tried to throw me off guard with the 'oh-we-are-lost' routine. It was all too bad because i have already heard about the place. HA. French food in a hawker setting, unpretentious storefront and down to earth blokes as chefs, everything looks pretty much promising. I parked myself under the fan and waited earnestly for my food to be served. 

The food is priced reasonably and by that i mean cheap (for French food that is). There are about 6 mains to choose from. I understand that the chefs introduce special dishes every now and then depending on the availability of ingredients. Prices range from $8 (Mushroom Penne) to $29 (Blackmore Wagyu Steak) and that obviously made our pockets very happy as well. Was just kinda disappointed because they don't do duck confit. That's a MUST HAVE at any decent French stall. :((

For starters, we had the Foie Gras Terrine ($12)- slow cooked Foie Gras, toasted focaccia with orange reduction. Should have gone for pan seared but i was lured by the focaccia (what was i thinking?!). Anyway, it was nicely cooked and sprinkled with sea salt flakes. The orange reduction is like a fresh marmalade jam and the citrus helped mask some of the gamey taste of the liver. Don't expect too much of the foie gras, you get what you pay for. It's passable, not particularly creamy or buttery.

The Coq Au Vin ($12) was quite a delight. Red wine braised chicken, bacon, mushrooms with roast vegetables, served with focaccia. I was expecting a stew when i ordered this. Nonetheless, the meat separated from the bone easily but the meat wasn't particularly tender. Some parts were a little dry. The sauce was nicely done though and the remnants of the alcohol was still lingering in the meat. The sauce had just the right amount of bitterness and a hint of tartness of the wine but it was mostly sweet and full bodied. The bread however was a little stale. Of course i do not expect them to be baking it fresh daily but it fell short.

S had the grilled 150 Day Grain Fed Australian Angus Steak for $14 and it was served with a Mesclun salad, pomme puree and green peppercorn sauce. The meat is done medium (no other options) but it was really juicy, tender and flavorful. Could tell that the pomme puree was painstakingly made with love. Buttery smooth but it maintained a little bit of coarseness (so that you know it's not made from instant mix!). Such a steal.  

Most of their patrons obviously went to the coffeeshop with a purpose. It's in an older estate after all and most people would go for the zi char or Hainanese curry rice (looks really yummy btw!) if they didn't know about the place. Highly recommended for cheap French food. You gotta have the steak for sure.
