The Bridge Bistro & Beacon Bar @ RSYC

I have been to the Republic Of Singapore Yacht Club several times for karaoke and drinks but it was usually late at night, after The Bridge Bistro & Beacon Bar were closed for business. Last November, I had the chance to savour, no, devour is more likely, their substantial fare. The river cobbler (or bassa to … Continue reading

The Roti Prata House

The Roti Prata House is always packed during late night and especially the weekends for those craving for *southern Indian street food cuisine. How do I know?

Ryan: “Oh my gosh, I want Indian!” Me: “Thai or Indian?” Valerie: “Aiyah, anything Asian.” Ryan: “Indian!” You must be baffled! But let me assure you we are not human trafficking, lol… It all started with a tantalising picture some bloggers might hashtag as foodporn! Vanessa’s lunch on 24 Buffalo Road in Little India was … Continue reading

Indian Street Food – SiraJ

I could barely remember but the first time I ate Indian Rojak, it was probably in my pre-teens at Rasa Singapura Food Centre, now defunct. It was located in Tanglin Road at Tudor Court, near The Regent, Singapore. It’s also been long time since I tasted Indian Mee Siam, not since the demolition of Taman … Continue reading
