Greenwood Fish Market and Bistro - Go Lard or Go Home, Of Smoked Goods and Oysters Fests

Greenwood Fish Market and Bistro is having their annual World Oyster Festival, which is ongoing until the 25th July. Suffice to say, oyster lovers will love this.

They have a wide selection of 24 different types of these shellfish from all over the world, ranging from the little nugget ones to gigantic oysters. I am pretty sure that even the more discerning ones will find something here to their liking.

Heavens at Town Restaurant - Heaven Has Just Come to Town

Heavenly. In a week where we were stood up by a feline celebrity chef, it was more than adequately compensated by the dazzling food of our own local heroes.

Trading hand torched langoustine for squid ink beef, there was really no competition for the eventual winner of this culinary standoff.

Silver Food News - Chabuton, Saboten and Eggs & Berries

Chabuton has a new outlet that has just opened its doors at Millenia Walk. And as with every new Chabuton opening, there is always a new ramen dish to commemorate the new place.

The new outlet has pretty much the same decor as its previous outlets, and that means it is bright and spacious.

Singaporeans seem to prefer burgers over hotdogs, and that may explain why A&W's demise some years back.

I do miss those Coney Dogs and root beers, and though they are still operating in some parts of Malaysia, I still long for a good hotdog every once in a while.

Nostalgic Feast at Jade Restaurant Fullerton Hotel

Nostalgia is something that we look for quite often as we get older, seeking out childhood memories that are seemingly lost and we yearn for those simpler, more carefree times.

Food is no exception when it comes to nostalgic recollections, and in no small part, childhood food memories tend to fill the older generation with the most sense of longing and desire.

Capri Trattoria & Pizzeria - Delicious Italian Hospitality

Italian food is all about simplicity and freshness. And passion. Passion is the single most important ingredient in Italian cuisine.

And that vital component is often missing in Italian joints found in Singapore. Far too often, Italian cafes and trattorias push out dishes by the numbers with nary a thought about the soul of Italian cooking.

Silver Food News - The Pecking Order, Ethan's Gourmet and The Royal Mail

Located at the heart of the business district is this spanking bar that dishes out some quite decent bar fare.

The Pecking Order may not be the most spacious of spaces, but it is certainly a perfect spot to wind down to some drinks and food at the end of a long working day.

Chir Chir at 313 Somerset - Something Korean, Something Fried, Everything Good

Without question, some things are hard to pronounce, but however you say it, Chir Chir at 313 Somerset has definitely been a success.

The nightly long queues are a testament that there is something buzzing about this place, and amidst the influx of Korean fried chicken wing establishments, Chir Chir truly stands out.
