Diamond Kitchen at Science Park - Comfort Food That is Honest and Superb

Chinese cuisine can be frustrating for me at times. The lack of invention being my pet peeve, and when some restaurants tries, it comes off as being gimmicky and losing the plot.

That is why, I like it when establishments like CDHK just sticks to its guns and traditions and focus on doing the basic things and nailing it every time.

Men-Tei Ramen - Authentic and Classic Ramen at It's Best

Authentic Japanese ramen is not something that is easily found here, and with the explosion of all sorts of fusion and creatively concocted versions of this Japanese classic happening everywhere, it is almost a relief to find a place that sticks to the original way of making ramen.

This is why it is both comforting and an absolute joy to visit Jason Lim's Men-Tei Ramen at Robinson Road.

Ippudo Ramen Shaw Centre - Comforting Japanese Treats

Ippudo Ramen has opened a new outlet at Shaw Centre and being my first time there, I was not sure what to expect.

The good news is that I walked out a rather happy diner. While the main draw is their ramen selections, Ippudo also has a few other tricks up its culinary sleeves.

Silver Food News - Momiji Japanese Buffet, FYR, Miam Miam High Tea Buffet

Buffet is usually not my thing, but I must admit that Momiji Japanese Buffet at Revenue House in the Novena Area has caught my eye, and my tastebuds.

Maybe it is because it is a strictly Japanese themed buffet as that cuta out some of the superfluous buffet items like pasta and local selections, and that focus has streamlined the food to purely Japanese favourites.

Brunch at Shelter in the Woods - Refined Elegance Incognito

Without missing a beat, he moves with immense grace and serenity. And with great care he dresses each plate he puts out with the utmost of precision. Nothing is left to chance.

Yet, as the dish forms slowly in front of your eyes, there is a sense of natural beauty and sublime elegance. This is the work of Chef Masashi Horiuchi.

Moosehead Kitchen and Bar - Insanely Talented Cooks and Their Unpretentious Deliciousness

Moosehead Kitchen and Bar may not be the most spacious eatery around, but let's just this get this out of the way. Their food is sublime.

Operated by Daniel and Glen, a father and son team where Papa Glen is the chef partner and sets the direction of the food and Daniel runs the front of the house.

d'Good Cafe - Simply Charming and Wondrously Cosy

There is so much to adore about d'Good Cafe that I have absolutely no idea where to begin. Perhaps I should start with the fact that it is found in the heart of Holland Village.

It occupies the 2nd and 3rd storeys of a shophouse and their signage is barely visible, save for a glass door with steps leading up to its charming setting.

Flock Cafe at Ghim Moh - Another Gem of a Cafe

The original Flock Cafe at Tiong Bahru has been around for awhile, but just a few months ago, they have opened up a new outlet in the heartland area of Ghim Moh.

I have never been to the original cafe, but judging from their latest establishment, there might be plenty of reasons now to check out the first one as well.
