The GreaThai Restaurant - The Thai Styled Steamed Fish Specialist


These days, we have so many restaurants selling Thai food. One of the common dishes of a thai cuisine is non-other than Tom Yum. I have eaten tom yum on many occassions but it was only recently I learnt that there are two types of tom yum...

I went to the GreaThai restaurant for lunch and I realised that there are two types of tom yum soup; red and white. I asked the waitress and according to the waitress, the red variety contains coconut milk and both are just as spicy.

Kookie Krumbz - Freshly Baked Cookies That Is Simply Worth The Wait!!

I love cookies, especially if it fresh from the oven. I love the sweet aroma that is lingering in the air once that oven is opened. It really teases the tastebuds. One of the common place we get cookies from is Famous Amos. Recently, I have found another cookie bakery that, to me, serves better cookies.

Sumptuous And Super Filling Nasi Ambeng at Ambeng Cafe by Ummi Abdullah

It was a very humid Tuesday afternoon, my wife and I had a meeting with one of the renovation contractors for our new home. It was a long meeting and it ended about after 2pm. By that time, I was famished.

Since my wife said she wanted to drop by East Village to buy her favourite red velvet cookies, I thought it would be a great idea to drop by the famous Ambeng Cafe. 



Ambeng Cafe is well known for sumptuous Malay food and of course, its long queues. Every single time I visited East Village, I would see a long winding queue at the entrance of this eatery.

WhatSub 'Slurp' Sandwiches

Ever since the article on 'plastic' made rice appeared on my facebook home page, I seemed to lost the appetite for rice. Maybe its temporary, maybe its permanent, I do not know. But I think the human race really has taken innovation too far. Just a few years ago, I saw a picture of a sea turtle chewing a piece of 'seaweed' which in fact was a plastic bag. And if no authority steps in, we will be no different from that sea turtle soon enough.

So last weekend, I so wanted to avoid eating rice. My wife wanted to try a new 'subway' style sandwich shop in the eastern part of Singapore. So off we go.

It was about 4pm on a hot Sunday afternoon. Next to the Salty Peanut Gelato outlet, stands a packed sandwich shop called WhatSub Sandwich Cafe.

I think we all love sandwiches. Subway seems like a good choice but there is one problem, it is not Halal. A few local Muslim entrepreneurs tried to bring a Halal version to cater for the muslim community. Unfortunately, these outlets had to shut down. Many years later, at a place called East Village, WhatSub Sandwich Cafe was founded.

Sweet Deserts at Salty Peanut Gelato Cafe

It was hot and humid afternoon and my wife wanted to eat ice-cream. I thought "let's go and buy a tub of Magnolia's ice-cream, some wafers and chocolate fudge". What can I say, Sometimes, I can be a terribly simple person.

She suggested Salty Peanut Gelato Cafe.


I have never heard of Salty Peanut Gelato Cafe and from my own knowledge, the only Gelato-like cafe that is halal is Gelare Cafe.
