			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve long heard about Shokudo Japanese Food Bazzar (or more commonly known as &#8220;Japanese Marche&#8221;), and the modern Japanese food that&#8217;s being served. Basically every customer will be given a card which is being scanned each time an order is being placed. If you&#8217;ve been to Marche, you&#8217;ll probably know what I mean.</p>
<p>We got to Shokudo pretty late on a weekday so it was just a tad crowded. After we got ourselves a table, I immediately started to &#8220;recce&#8221; the place, with the help of the inbuilt GPS system (i.e. my nose). Think I was probably hungry, or the variety and aroma just excited every single muscle in me.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what we had:</p>
<div id="attachment_319" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Mushroom-Cheese-Omelette.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-319 " title="Mushroom Cheese Omelette" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Mushroom-Cheese-Omelette.jpg" alt="Mushroom Cheese Omelette (with cross section)" width="480" height="361" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Mushroom Cheese Omelette</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">This is my first time trying it, and I thought its pretty yummy. The egg wrap was very soft and moist, but firm enough such that it didn&#8217;t fall apart when lifted up. There were some mushrooms and bacon within the omelette, which made it even more mouth watering, but also more sinful!<span id="more-315"></span></p>
<div id="attachment_318" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/EbiBacon-Wasabi-Pizza.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-318 " title="EbiBacon Wasabi Pizza" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/EbiBacon-Wasabi-Pizza.jpg" alt="EbiBacon Wasabi Pizza" width="480" height="360" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">EbiBacon Wasabi Pizza</p></div>
<p>Another one of my favourites that night. The crust was really really thin and light. Crispy too. The toppings were some shrimps, and bacon, with a light yet distinct taste of wasabi. I think the wasabi made the pizza actually more appetizing. Point to note though, was that the shrimps were probably soaked in soda water, hence giving it the translucent crunchy texture.</p>
<div id="attachment_317" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Bacon-and-Oyster.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-317" title="Bacon and Oyster" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Bacon-and-Oyster.jpg" alt="Grilled Bacon and Oyster On Skewer" width="480" height="360" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Bacon and Oyster</p></div>
<p>We had some bacon with oyster on skewer. I&#8217;m not a big fan of either, but the sticks being grilled looked very tempting when I walked past. Nothing impressive I&#8217;d say, probably a tad too oily as well.</p>
<p>The other item from the same stall was the Yaki Onigri (i.e. grilled rice). I remember eating this while growing up, and I haven&#8217;t tried one since I moved out of my neighbourhood many years back. To my knowledge, the grilled rice should be layered with a piece of mint leaves on both sides before grilling. Hence it will allow the flavour to soak in during the BBQ process.</p>
<div id="attachment_321" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/yaki-onigiri-bacon-oyster.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-321 " title="Yaki Onigiri" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/yaki-onigiri-bacon-oyster.jpg" alt="Yaki Onigiri (Grilled Rice)" width="480" height="360" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Yaki Onigiri (Grilled Rice)</p></div>
<p>This version at Shokudo didn&#8217;t have that. I think the rice probably had some vinegar and seaweed mixed within, while the outer layer was pretty crispy. Ideally I&#8217;d say one Onigri to three persons, otherwise it may get too filling.</p>
<div id="attachment_320" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 370px"><a href="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Yaki-Gyoza.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-320 " title="Yaki Gyoza" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Yaki-Gyoza.jpg" alt="Yaki Gyoza (Pot Stickers)" width="360" height="480" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Yaki Gyoza (Pot Stickers)</p></div>
<p>Next up was a plate of Gyoza (Japanese Pot Stickers). I wouldn&#8217;t say it was superb, neither was it bad. But ultimately it had the requirements of a fried dumpling (crispy skin, bit of soup in the filling).</p>
<div id="attachment_316" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a href="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Assorted-Mushrooms.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-316 " title="Assorted Mushrooms" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Assorted-Mushrooms.jpg" alt="Stir Fried Assorted Mushrooms" width="480" height="360" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Stir Fried Assorted Mushrooms</p></div>
<p>Finally we had the stir-fried assorted mushrooms, tepanyaki style with lotsa garlic. Again though I&#8217;m a mushroom lover, but I thought this was easily forgetable. But nevertheless still pretty decent.</p>
<p>I think the omelette and the pizza was really good. Hence bringing up the expectations of the other items we ordered. Nevertheless, its a Marche style dining where you probably don&#8217;t get 5-star chefs. If you&#8217;re going out in a big group, and you like to order a variety of food, then do give Shokudu Japanese Food Bazzar a try.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We were supposed to catch the movie 2010, but realised tickets were sold out when we reached. Hence my friend suggested Modesto&#8217;s for dinner instead. (coincidentally a pre-b&#8217;day dinner as well) Good thing we actually missed the movie, otherwise I&#8217;d probably missed out on some mouth watering tiramisu.</p>
<p>A little bit of history, Modesto&#8217;s has been around in Singapore for more than a decade. Of which I think the flagship outlet was at Orchard Parade Hotel. The Italian restaurant chain was founded by an Italian chef, Modesto Marini, and till date has expanded to 3 outlets in Singapore, as well as Malaysia and Indonesia.<span id="more-290"></span></p>
<p>Not too sure about the rest, but I liked the ambiance of this outlet at Vivocity. The interior lighting a was a little bit dim which I thought was nice and cosy. There&#8217;s also an al fresco area that just overlooks the harbour and Sentosa. Definitely a nice place to sit down and chill at night. A slight draw back though, would be that it can get rather noisy during the peak hours, and somehow, the aircon was a little chilly that night.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_292" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 370px"><img class="size-full wp-image-292 " title="Modestos Dinner Set Menu" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Modestos-Dinner-Set-Menu.jpg" alt="Modestos Dinner Set Menu" width="360" height="480" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Modestos Dinner Set Menu</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">After some deliberation, we decided to go for the dinner set for 2. At $48 nett, I thought it was very reasonably priced, with one option from the Appetizer Selection, two main course, and one dessert.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_293" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-293 " title="Bread with Olive Oil &amp; Vinaigrette" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Bread-with-Olive-Oil-Vinaigrette.jpg" alt="Bread with Olive Oil &amp; Vinaigrette" width="480" height="360" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Bread with Olive Oil &amp; Vinaigrette</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">We started off with some homemade bread with olive oil and vinaigrette. Though the bread was quite soft and sparse, but I thought it would be much better if the outer layer was a little crisp. Then again maybe its because of our &#8220;extended&#8221; photo taking session.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_296" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-296 " title="Insalata Alla Cesare" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Insalata-Alla-Cesare.JPG" alt="Insalata Alla Cesare - Cesar Salad" width="480" height="360" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Insalata Alla Cesare - Cesar Salad</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">Next for appetizers we had the Insalata Alla Cesare or rather simply known as Cesar Salad. The plate was filled with lots of fresh green lettuce, topped with thinly sliced cheese, croutons, n bacon bits. The salad dressing used was sorta creamy, with a slight yet distinct garlic taste.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<div id="attachment_297" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-297 " title="Regular Pizza Gamberetti" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Regular-Pizza-Gamberetti.JPG" alt="Regular Pizza Gamberetti - Tomato, Cheese n Lemon Marinated Shrimps" width="480" height="362" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Regular Pizza Gamberetti - Tomato, Cheese n Lemon Marinated Shrimps</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">Next up was the Pizza Gamberett and Spaghetti Allla Carbonara. The pizza caught my attention because the description said it consists of lemon marinated shrimps. Of which the lemon part made it sound quite refreshing. To be honest, I think I could only taste a hint of lemon within the shrimps, and also I think the cheese had some lemon juice in it too. Very slight though. The crust was really thin, light, and crispy. I for one, wouldn&#8217;t even consider Pizza Hut after tasting this.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<div id="attachment_298" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-298 " title="Spaghetti Allla Carbonara" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Spaghetti-Allla-Carbonara.JPG" alt="Spaghetti Allla Carbonara" width="480" height="362" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Spaghetti Allla Carbonara</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">The memory that&#8217;s left within me of the spaghetti is rather vague, but I think the done-ness was pretty Al Dante style. The sauce wasn&#8217;t too creamy either. Relatively speaking, I think the spaghetti here can take on Prego&#8217;s, hands down anytime.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<div id="attachment_299" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-299 " title="Tiramisu Modestos" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Tiramisu-Modestos.JPG" alt="Tiramisu Modestos" width="480" height="358" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Tiramisu Modestos</p></div>
<p>Last but not least, my beloved Italian dessert. I really really loved this one a lot. The cheese was very light and yet not too sweet, while the lady&#8217;s finger inside was generously soaked with aromatic espresso, and coffee liquor. If you love Tiramisu, then the one at Modesto&#8217;s cannot be missed out.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re in the vicinity of Vivocity and craving for some Italian cuisine, then Modesto&#8217;s is definitely the place to go. Do check out credit card promotions and the lunch / dinner sets available which are generally quite value for money.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you&#8217;re looking for authentic German food, with a little touch of home-cooked warmth and cosy-ness, then Werner&#8217;s Oven is just the place for you. Tucked away in the bustling food street around Siglap is a little cafe style restaurant serving one of the most authentic pork knuckles you can find in Singapore.</p>
<p>Werner&#8217;s started out as a small German bakery in the late 1980s. Over the years they&#8217;ve expanded from a small outlet to a decent sized cafe style eatery in Siglap that serves anything from Oxtail Stew, to Home-made German sausages, Pork Knuckles and imported German beer.<span id="more-76"></span></p>
<p>The owners are two local sisters, one of whom married a German who is probably the heart and soul behind this eatery. As far back as I can remember, he&#8217;s the guy who bakes the bread and pastry for the shop. Oh and the pork knuckles chef too&#8230;</p>
<p>For starters we two glasses of Paulaner (imported German beer). The Hefe-Weissbier was described as &#8220;a golden, naturally cloudy wheat beer with a delicate fruity aroma&#8221; on the menu. Personally, I thought it was quite refreshing, but couldn&#8217;t taste any fruity flavour in it.</p>
<div id="attachment_81" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 232px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-81" title="Imported Paulaner" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/DSC_0259-222x300.jpg" alt="Hefe-Weissbier (Left), Beer with 7-Up (Right)" width="222" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Hefe-Weissbier (Left), Beer with 7-Up (Right)</p></div>
<p>If you&#8217;d like something sweeter, there&#8217;s an option of having the beer mixed with 7up / coke on the menu. Basically its diluted beer with soft-drinks.</p>
<p>For mains, we had the Farmer&#8217;s Sausage and Knusperiege Schweinhaxe (Pork Knuckles). Both dishes came with &#8220;<a title="Sauerkraut" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sauerkraut" target="_blank">Sauerkraut</a>&#8221; (fermented shredded cabbage) and one potato side. Either mashed potatoes of potato salad.</p>
<div id="attachment_78" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-78" title="Farmer's Sausage" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/DSC_0275-300x199.jpg" alt="Farmer's Sausage (with Sauerkraut &amp; Potato Salad)" width="300" height="199" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Farmer&#39;s Sausage (with Sauerkraut &amp; Potato Salad)</p></div>
<p>The Farmer&#8217;s Sausage had a number of spices inside like chilli, fresh garlic, parsley, etc. You can really taste the freshness of the meat, not like those filled with salt and pepper you find in supermarkets. The meat used was quite lean too, didn&#8217;t taste any fats. Personally, I thought that the sausage had a little oriental flavour, possibly because of the chilli and garlic taste.</p>
<div id="attachment_80" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-80" title="Farmer's Sausage" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/DSC_0295-300x220.jpg" alt="Cross Sectional View of the Farmer's Sausage" width="300" height="220" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Cross Sectional View of the Farmer&#39;s Sausage</p></div>
<p>In my opinion, I think Pork Knuckles has to be one of the most sinful dish in the entire German culture. But simply delicious. I&#8217;ve been to Werner&#8217;s a number of times while growing up in the neighbourhood, but didn&#8217;t get to try the Pork Knuckles till today.</p>
<div id="attachment_79" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-79" title="Knusperiege Schweinhaxe" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/DSC_0287-300x204.jpg" alt="Crispy Pork Knuckes served with mashed potatoes &amp; sauerkraut" width="300" height="204" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Crispy Pork Knuckes served with mashed potatoes &amp; sauerkraut</p></div>
<p>The layer of skin on the exterior was just so crispy that I couldn&#8217;t stop my mouth from wanting more. In fact, I&#8217;m feeling hungry now as I&#8217;m writing this post. The meat may be a tad too dry for most diners, but to me it was alright. The knuckles were fried to perfection, the meat just falls off the bone, and there&#8217;s no sign of any burnt taste.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d go back for this dish anytime, but probably have to make sure I fulfill at least 3 gym sessions per week before such indulgence again.</p>
<p>Definitely one of the best German eating hunts in Singapore, and with a homely touch to it. Don&#8217;t get shocked if you see celebrities walking. Tan Keng Hwa and Rod Monteiro who both stays in the east, frequent Werner&#8217;s Oven quite a fair bit.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A pretty popular bistro-like restaurant in the Siglap area. In fact I’ve read that its popular among celebrities like Radio DJ Rod Monteiro as well. BigFish Seafood Grill (like what the restaurant name mentions) serves mainly grilled seafood, in particular Fish.</p>
<p>Located slightly further up from the bustling eateries in Siglap, BigFish Seafood Grill offers a rather cosy and homely atmosphere with very friendly staff. They specialise in grilled fish, and the variety of fish dishes they have is really quite appetizing.</p>
<p>The founders of the restaurant Rosaline Lee and Lim Juat Kin were ex-HSBC bank officers, while the chef has a boastful resume of working in Raffles Hotel, and Marina Mandarin. The restaurant has also been featured in numerous publications like 8-Days, Asia Cuisine, and shows like Coffee Talk &amp; Hawker Woks.</p>
<p>Ok enough said, here comes some photos<span id="more-35"></span></p>
<div id="attachment_40" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-40" title="Cream Of Mushroom Soup" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Cream-Of-Mushroom-Soup-300x225.jpg" alt="Cream Of Mushroom Soup" width="300" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Cream Of Mushroom Soup</p></div>
<p>Cream of Mushroom soup is nothing to shout about, but definitely homemade and not those ready mixed ones. Personally I think its ok, but my friend felt that it was a little bit too creamy.</p>
<div id="attachment_39" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-39" title="Bread" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Bread-300x225.jpg" alt="Slices of warm soft bread, with chunks of butter spread" width="300" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Slices of warm soft bread, with chunks of butter spread</p></div>
<p>We had grilled fish and beef for our main course. I can’t remember the exact name of the fish, but if memory serves me well, its probably their “Catch Of The Day”. The fish differs from time to time, so you may want to check with the staff on whats the special for the day.</p>
<div id="attachment_42" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-42" title="Grilled Catch Of The Day" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Grilled-Catch-Of-The-Day-300x226.jpg" alt="Grilled Catch Of The Day" width="300" height="226" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Grilled Catch Of The Day</p></div>
<p>Presenation was definitely good, and the fish was quite fresh. Don’t expect fine dining kind of dish where the fish meat is snow white and melts in your mouth. Having said that I think the texture was ok and the meat was quite soft.</p>
<div id="attachment_41" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-41" title="Grilled Beef with Black Pepper Sauce" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Grilled-Beef-with-Black-Pepper-Sauce-300x216.jpg" alt="Grilled Beef with Black Pepper Sauce" width="300" height="216" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Grilled Beef with Black Pepper Sauce</p></div>
<p>The beef came with black pepper sauce. Tastes ok to me, somewhat like Jack’s Place standard. But hey, its the seafood that counts right?</p>
<p>There’s also a seafood platter, that I think is comparable if not better than the Fish &amp; Co. one. Though its slightly more expensive. Sorry no photos for that, as I was already halfway through before I remembered to take a snapshot. <img src='http://food4tot.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_surprised.gif' alt=':o' class='wp-smiley' /> P</p>
<div id="attachment_43" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-43" title="Tiramisu" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Tiramisu-300x273.jpg" alt="Home-made Tiramisu" width="300" height="273" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Home-made Tiramisu</p></div>
<p>For dessert we had tha homemade tiramisu (see above), and the fried banana fritters. I’m a sucker for tiramisu-s so I just had to have a try since it was recommended on their menu. Pretty ok I’d say but I’ve tasted better ones. A little bit too much cocoa powder ontop, while too much cheese in the filling. You can taste the espresso, but no real liquor or kahlua scent.</p>
<div id="attachment_38" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-38" title="Banana Fritters" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Banana-Fritters-300x199.jpg" alt="Banana Fritters" width="300" height="199" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Banana Fritters</p></div>
<p>I ordered the banana fritters having in mind the chinese delicacy “Ba Si Siang Jiao”. Apparently its nothing like it. This one is coated with flour and deep fried, topped with chocolate sauce. I think the chocolate didn’t go too well with the fried bananas.</p>
<p>If you’re into grilled seafood, or looking for a fresh option from the usual Fish &amp; Co. then I would recommend BigFish. Don’t expect fine dining quality, but rather something a little bit more “homely, with a personal touch” compared to Fish &amp; Co. A full course for 2, would cost about $70-$80.</p>
<div id="attachment_45" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 172px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-45" title="Big Fish Seafood Grill" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Big-Fish-Seafood-Grill-300x211.jpg" alt="Big Fish Seafood Grill" width="162" height="114" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Big Fish Seafood Grill</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For all you spaghetti fans out there, this is a must try place!</p>
<p>Tucked away in the basement of Takashimaya , is an Italian Bistro like setting called “Ambush”. Basically what it is is a simple shop front where you place your order, and a seating area (kinda small) at the back while the kitchen has a transparent window. Its like an open concept situated in the middle of the basement area within Takashimaya.</p>
<p>From the looks, it would seem like its an eat and go kinda place, where the business model is more for the Takashimaya shoppers to take a break. I for one wouldn’t have thought that they would serve decent, if not very good Italian spaghetti there!<span id="more-3"></span></p>
<p>Both my friend and I ordered a main course, and an addition of about $4.50 for a soup OR desert.</p>
<p>The soup of the day was cream of mushroom. One of my personal favourites. The soup is definitely homemade. Unlike many bistros these days, Ambush doesn’t use those instant can or packet soup mix. You can taste the broth with lotsa diced up shitake mushrooms inside.</p>
<div id="attachment_7" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 234px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-7" title="Mushroom Soup" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Mushroom-Soup-224x300.jpg" alt="Creamy Mushroom Soup" width="224" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Creamy Mushroom Soup</p></div>
<p>I’m a sucker for cream soup, hence I thought it was really good. Though my friend thought that the soup was a little bit too creamy. So I guess its an individual’s preference.</p>
<p>For appetizers we had the “Queen’s Scallops”, its basically baked scallops (with the shells) with some herbs on the top. Pretty decent with 6 shells on one plate. Don’t expect some fine dining type of quality cooking, but for about $12 per plate of 6, I think the pricing may be a little on the high side as well. Unless you are a seafood fanatic, you may want to skip this and try other types of appetizers.</p>
<div id="attachment_11" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 234px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-11" title="Queen Scallops" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Queen-Scallops-224x300.jpg" alt="Queen Scallops" width="224" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Queen Scallops</p></div>
<p>My friend then ordered the Prawn Linguine with Arriabiata Sauce. Basically its tomato based type of linguine with a generous amount of big succulent prawns. The prawns were quite fresh and were very chewy. The tomato based sauce wasn’t too “tomatoey” and you can taste some garlic and other herbs within. For me, I’m more of a “creamy” person, but I think its still ok. The noodles though were cook to perfection, not soggy, and the chewyness was just right.</p>
<div id="attachment_13" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 273px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-13" title="Prawn Linguine with Arriabiata Sauce" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Prawn-Linguine-with-Arriabiata-Sauce-263x300.jpg" alt="Prawn Linguine with Arriabiata Sauce" width="263" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Prawn Linguine with Arriabiata Sauce</p></div>
<p>For me, I ordered the Scallop with Fresh Roe Linguine. Hmm firstly the base was kinda like those white creamy sauce, with a generous serving of fresh scallops (different type from the appetizer we had earlier on), and lots of fish roe sprinkled on top. The gravy was just right to me, not too creamy, being able to taste some herbs. So far, I think its one of the best Cream based pasta that I’ve tasted in Singapore. The ingredients used were very fresh too.</p>
<div id="attachment_16" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 234px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-16" title="Scallop with fresh Roe Sauce" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/DSC01323-Scallop-with-fresh-Roe-Sauce-224x300.jpg" alt="Scallop with fresh Roe Sauce" width="224" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Scallop with fresh Roe Sauce</p></div>
<p>I think both pastas were value for money. They were roughly about $12-$14 per dish, and even so, the amount of ingredients added were in abundance.</p>
<p>For dessert, we tried the apple crumble. Nothing super fanciful, but it tasted home made, not those factory mass produced type. The apples inside were fresh too.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-17" title="Apple Crumble" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Apple-Crumble-300x225.jpg" alt="Apple Crumble" width="300" height="225" /></p>
<p>In terms of pricing and food quality, the only other place that can match this would probably be Creations at Shaw Tower. Taking the price and food quality served, I think this can easily beat fine dining restaurants like Prego’s, hands down.</p>
<p>Highly recommended for pasta lovers!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After a long hot day under the scorching sun at the Singapore River (Duck Race day) we ended up at Vivocity,  supposedly to catch a movie, but decided to head in for a quick bite instead.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_152" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><img class="size-full wp-image-152 " title="Singapore River Duck Race" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Singapore-River-Duck-Race.jpg" alt="Gigantic rubber duck along Singapore River" width="300" height="400" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Gigantic rubber ducky along Singapore River</p></div>
<p>Located just outside the GV cinema entrance was Terra Cafe. It isn&#8217;t the appealing kind to me on first look, but I was desperate to find a place sit down, and chill from the extensive heat earlier.<span id="more-149"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_153" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-153 " title="Grilled Lamb Rack" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Grilled-Lamb-Rack.jpg" alt="Grilled Lamb Rack" width="400" height="298" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Grilled Lamb Rack</p></div>
<p>We had a roast Lamb Rack and Linguine Mariana for main course. Both cost roughly $20. Which I’d say is very good for that kind of pricing. The lamb was well roasted with lots of flavour. Not too dry as well.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_154" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 360px"><img class="size-full wp-image-154 " title="Linguine Mariana with Ginger Apple Smith" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Linguine-Mariana-with-Ginger-Apple-Smith.jpg" alt="Linguine Mariana with Ginger Apple Smith" width="350" height="400" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Linguine Mariana with Ginger Apple Smith</p></div>
<p>The linguine wasn’t soggy and was topped with average sized prawns which were quite fresh and chewy.</p>
<p>Ah finally sweets, my favourate part of the meal. One of the meals we ordered was added to a set meal, we decided on a coffee flavoured ice-cream. Sadly though we waited for eternity before the ice-cream actually came. Think they probably forgot about out order.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_155" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-155 " title="Coffee Ice-Cream" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Coffee-Ice-Cream.jpg" alt="Coffee Ice-Cream" width="400" height="286" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Coffee Ice-Cream</p></div>
<p>Then was the Tiramisu. Now now, here’s the very delicate critic from someone who self-claims can make the best tiramisu in town. (at this point if you interested, feel free email me for recipe heeh..)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_156" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 376px"><img class="size-full wp-image-156 " title="Tiramisu" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Tiramisu.jpg" alt="Tiramisu with overdose of cocoa powder" width="366" height="400" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Tiramisu with overdose of cocoa powder</p></div>
<p>I felt that there was too much cocoa powder on top.. seriously&#8230; The top of the tiramisu was &#8220;flooded&#8221; with cocoa. The texture of the mascopone cheese was right for my liking. Not too creamy nor too cheesy. Its a good blend so you won’t feel too “yeek” after a few spoonfuls. The ladyfinger soaked in coffee was pretty ok. Good strong espresso taste, though lacked a little kahlua (coffee liquor)</p>
<p>Next we had apple fritters and ice-cream. In my mind I was thinking of Ba Si Ping Guo. Basically its apple coated with flour and malt sugar, then deep fried. They&#8217;ll soak the pieces in ice cold water upon serving so as to have the sugar hardened up. Its a very exquisite chinese dessert originated from the north I think. The only place I know that serves this is at Prima Tower.</p>
<p>What came out though was totally different.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_157" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-157 " title="Apple Fritters with Vanilla IceCream" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Apple-Fritters-with-Vanilla-IceCream.jpg" alt="Apple Fritters with Vanilla IceCream" width="400" height="300" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Apple Fritters with Vanilla IceCream</p></div>
<p>This version is shapped like donuts and the apple (quite freshly sliced) is coated with flour. Not the crispy type, the softer kind. Eating it plain isn’t exactly to my liking, but with the frosted sugar and vanilla ice-cream as compliments, hmm quite yummy.</p>
<p>Last but not least was a dessert I wanted to try. And though I didn’t order it, it was mistakenly served to our table. I can’t remember the exact name of the dessert but it had these few words: &#8220;Ice-cream, espresso, vacuum&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_158" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 271px"><img class="size-full wp-image-158 " title="Expresso with Vanilla IceCream" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Expresso-with-Vanilla-IceCream.jpg" alt="Expresso with Vanilla IceCream" width="261" height="400" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Expresso with Vanilla IceCream</p></div>
<p>Hmm sounds interesting right? We took a shot of it. But the waiter took it away after realizing his mistake. So I guess I can only review that the next time I head down to Terra.</p>
<p>On the whole its a nice place for a group of people to catch up. Decent food (nothing exquisite) with reasonable pricing. Quantity and quality both strike a balance. Ample choices of variety for appetizers, main course, and desserts. Oh ye they have quite a lot of finger food too, so you don’t really have to pop in just for a meal.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Before I start, you&#8217;ll have to pardon me for the very slip-shot photos for this post. If memory serves me right, we were actually rushing to catch the fireworks that night, so it was kinda like a shoot, eat, go, scenario.</p>
<p>Fong Kee has amazingly been around in Singapore since 1948. According to grand dad, the original location was in People&#8217;s Park, of which one of its outlet still remains there as of today. However the main outlet should be the one at North Bridge Road (used to be located at Maxwell Food Alley).</p>
<p>In short, Fong Kee specialises in 3 main dishes, namely: Dumplings, Buns, and Noodles.</p>
<div id="attachment_225" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 394px"><img class="size-full wp-image-225  " title="Guo Tie" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Guo-Tie.jpg" alt="Fried Dumpings (Guo Tie)" width="384" height="259" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Fried Dumplings, or loosely translated as Pot Stickers (锅贴)</p></div>
<p>Dumplings are generally served in two styles, either steamed or fried. The ones we had that day was the pan-fried version, where the dumpling skin was a little crispy. The generous fillings contained mainly minced meat, and some diced up spring onions.<span id="more-223"></span></p>
<div id="attachment_226" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 394px"><img class="size-full wp-image-226  " title="Xiao Long Bao" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Xiao-Long-Bao.jpg" alt="Xiao Long Bao" width="384" height="255" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Xiao Long Bao (小笼包)</p></div>
<p>I think this is a must try if you&#8217;re there. The Xiao Long Bao were served piping hot inside the steamer. The skin was very soft and delicate, such that you have to be very careful when picking it up with your chopsticks. Clipping it too hard would damage the skin, and out oozes the precious soup stock within.</p>
<div id="attachment_230" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 394px"><img class="size-full wp-image-230  " title="Fried Udon" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Fried-Udon.jpg" alt="The udon noodles are made in house" width="384" height="255" /><p class="wp-caption-text">The udon noodles are made in house</p></div>
<p>The other dish we tried was the stir fried udon noodles. On first sight, it doesn&#8217;t look very tempting. However my opinion changed once the first spoonful entered my mouth. The noodle had a tangy, chewy texture, which I thought was quite delightful. There were abundant of seafood ingredients like prawns, fish and squid as well.</p>
<p>I didn&#8217;t take any photos on my subsequent visits, but some other dishes that I thought were pretty good was the Spicy Sour Soup (酸辣汤), Deep Fried Kailan Leaves, and the Nian Gao. Note the nian gao isn&#8217;t the kind of sweet pastry like cake that we have during lunar new year. The nian gao here is actually a kind of chunky noodles.</p>
<p>In short, Fong Kee can be related to the more street style Ding Tai Feng, in terms of food presentation and of course pricing. On the average dinner would cost about $15 per head, quite decent for restaurant standard. Serving portion is also quite small, so you can get to order a variety of dishes even with a small group. I&#8217;d recommend this if you like simple quality food, or if you have a foreign guest in town.</p>
<p>Fong Kee Restaurant<img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-237" title="Fong Kee" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Fong-Kee-300x110.jpg" alt="Fong Kee" width="180" height="66" /><br />
787  North Bridge Road, Singapore 198755<br />
Tel: (65) 6220-331<br />

<p><em>There&#8217;s a Chinese saying &#8220;出门饺子进门面&#8221; which means one should eat dumplings before leaving home, and eat noodles when he returns. Dumplings symbolise unity and safety when one travels away, while noodles represents the &#8220;ropes&#8221; bringing you back home.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m always a big fan of Great World City. Its never too crowded, and there&#8217;s everything I need for chilling, from Pubs to Coffee joints, Cinema to Video Arcades. All under one roof.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve been there, I&#8217;m sure you would have noticed an open concept restaurant on the 2nd level. Its quite &#8220;al fresco&#8221; like, such that there&#8217;s no roof on top and its out in the open. Well that&#8217;s how <a title="Al Dente Trattoria" href="http://www.aldente.com.sg" target="_blank">Al Dente Trattoria</a> caught my attention since day one.</p>
<p>Basically, Al Dente serves authentic Italian food (not very, but pretty decent). Their specialty includes the usual Pastas, Pizzas, and Italian desserts like Gelato, and Tiramisu. They have outlets around the island as well, at the Esplanade, Holland Village and Boat Quay.<span id="more-203"></span></p>
<p>What&#8217;s interesting about this outlet, is that the kitchen is actually not visible. The dining area only consists of table, and a counter where drinks are prepared. Apparently, they have their kitchen inside the furniture store (V.Hive)  just opposite the restaurant.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_205" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-205 " title="Crab Bisque" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Crab-Bisque.jpg" alt="Crab Bisque" width="480" height="360" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Crab Bisque</p></div>
<p>For appetizers, we ordered a Crab Bisque Soup, and Portabello Mushroom with rocket salad. You could taste the alcohol in the soup, and it had a pretty strong crab taste, which was pretty good. Better than Jack&#8217;s Place version. Probably that the soup base was made with crab and crab shells. However I was expecting a little more from Al Dente. The crab meat was quite scarce and the texture of the soup was quite watery. (I was hoping for a slightly creamier version, but maybe that&#8217;s a personal preference)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_209" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-209  " title="Portabello Mushroom with rocket salad" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Portabello-Mushroom-with-rocket-salad.jpg" alt="Portabello Mushroom with rocket salad" width="480" height="360" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Portabello Mushroom with rocket salad</p></div>
<p>The Portabello Mushroom with rocket salad was quite good. The mushroom was slightly grilled I think, nice and chewy. The salad went well so the mushroom taste wouldn&#8217;t be too overwhelming.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_211" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 369px"><img class="size-full wp-image-211 " title="Linguine Marinara" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Linguine-Marinara.jpg" alt="Linguine Marinara" width="359" height="480" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Linguine Marinara</p></div>
<p>My friend had the Linguine Marinara. Now this one I thought wasn&#8217;t so good. Though there were a lot of fresh ingredients, prawns, clams, squid, etc, but the spaghetti was a little over-cooked. (ironically not Al Dente style) The sauce was very &#8220;tomato-ey&#8221; with very little herbs, or at least I couldn&#8217;t taste much. In terms of quality and price, I think <a title="Ambush At Takashimaya" href="http://food4tot.net/index.php/ambush-at-takashimaya/" target="_blank">Ambush</a> would be a much better choice for pasta.</p>
<div id="attachment_212" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-212  " title="Proscuitto Parma Ham Pizza" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Proscuitto-Parma-Ham-Pizza.jpg" alt="Proscuitto Parma Ham Pizza" width="480" height="360" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Proscuitto Parma Ham Pizza</p></div>
<p>At one look, I&#8217;m sure the Proscuitto Parma Ham Pizza would turn most guys off. Simply because of the &#8220;generous&#8221; overlaying of vegetables on the pizza. The first thought in my head was: &#8220;where got people put raw vegetables on pizza one?&#8221; Turns out, luckily they did.</p>
<p>The word <a title="Proscuitto Ham" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosciutto" target="_blank">Proscuitto</a> usually refers to dry-cured ham that is thinly sliced and served uncooked (also known as prosciutto crudo (raw ham) in Italian).</p>
<p>I have to be honest. This was my first time trying it out. My friend had it back in Italy before, so I got a mini-lesson when it came. At first taste, I thought it was very salty. After its cured ham, what do you expect. But when you leave it in your mouth for a little while, it starts to &#8220;melt&#8221;, and there&#8217;s a nice after taste, making you want to go for more.</p>
<p>The veges on top makes it less salty. Definitely not your usual pizza with tomato based sauce. Its worth a try if you&#8217;re at Al Dente&#8217;s.</p>
<p>I went back again and managed to try out the desserts. No photos for that occasion, but the Gelato and Tiramisu were alright. The Gelato&#8217;s texture was quite smooth and creamy, while there was abundant alcohol and espresso fused within the lady fingers in the Tiramisu.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_213" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><img class="size-full wp-image-213 " title="Al Dente (Great World City)" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/Al-Dente-Great-World-City.jpg" alt="Al Dente (Great World City)" width="480" height="360" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Al Dente (Great World City)</p></div>
<p>In general, if you&#8217;re at Al Dente, don&#8217;t go for the usual items you can find anywhere else. Go for the more traditional items like the Proscuitto Parma Pizza, Portabello Mushrooms, etc. Though I&#8217;ve never been to Italy before (hopefully soon), but they&#8217;re pretty decent in my opinion.</p>
<p>Pricing wise be prepared to spend about $35 per person if you&#8217;re ordering sides / appetizers ontop of main courses. Otherwise, main course would be in the region of $20 per dish.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking for an authentic yet affordable Turkish place to dine, well Sofra Turkish Cafe &amp; Restaurant is probably the place. The restaurant is actually tucked away in a quiet corner of Shaw Tower (Beach Road), and ironically its actually more visible from the outside, if you&#8217;re driving past, as there&#8217;s a huge neon sign hanging on their window.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t remember how we actually stumbled on this place, definitely wasn&#8217;t on our original itinerary. Upon stepping in, you&#8217;ll notice that most of the waiters aren&#8217;t local. Possibly Turkish.  The place is dimly lit, giving a warm cosy feeling to diners.  I&#8217;d recommend you try to take the window seat. Though its only on the 2nd story, but you overlook the entire Bugis Street, which I must say is quite stunning at night.<span id="more-127"></span></p>
<p>Back to the main topic, FOOD!</p>
<p>For starters we had a Lentil Soup, and Sofra Mocktail.</p>
<div id="attachment_128" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-128 " title="Lentil Soup &amp; Sofra Mocktail" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Lentil-Soup-Sofra-Mocktail.jpg" alt="Lentil Soup &amp; Sofra Mocktail" width="400" height="277" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Lentil Soup &amp; Sofra Mocktail</p></div>
<p>I didn&#8217;t exceptionally liked the soup, as its made from grinded beans. If you&#8217;ve been reading this, you&#8217;ll know that I&#8217;m more of a &#8220;creamy&#8221; person <img src='http://food4tot.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_surprised.gif' alt=':o' class='wp-smiley' /> ) Basically the soup tasted a little grainy with some herbs inside. I think the soup base is probably chicken stock though.</p>
<p>By the way, the soup comes with a generous slice of Pita Bread, but don&#8217;t expect it to be oven-baked hot, nor sparsely soft.</p>
<p>Mocktail was quite refreshing. There were some fruits inside, and jelly (agar-agar) as well. The main ingredients was probably some lime juice, and orange flavouring. Its more sweet than sour, but definitely refreshing.</p>
<p>For main course, we tried Chef&#8217;s Plate. Basically it consists of Doner Kebap, Izgara Kofte, and and s skewer of Shish Kebap. Ok, for those of you who are baffled with the &#8220;cheem&#8221; Turkish terms, its simply a meat sampling platter.</p>
<div id="attachment_132" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><img class="size-full wp-image-132 " title="Chef's Platter" src="http://food4tot.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/s-Platter.jpg" alt="Chef's Platter - Kebap, Kebap, and more Shish Kebap!" width="400" height="297" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Chef&#39;s Platter - Kebap, Kebap, and more Shish Kebap!</p></div>
<p>To me, I thought it was pretty authentic, but don&#8217;t expect this to be a fine dining dish. The meat is a little dry, but seasoned with lots of spices and herbs. The eggplant in the middle of the skewer was quite nice, but again the bread is too dry and tough to my liking. If you&#8217;re a meat eater, then I think this dish is worth a try!</p>
<p>To sum everything up, don&#8217;t expect exquisite food served before you, but for the kind of pricing (about below $20 per pax), the kind of ambiance, and authentic Turkish dishes, I think its very much worth a try. By the way if you happen to pop by, you may want to go up to the 11th Floor (i think) of the carpark. There&#8217;s a magnificent view of Singapore&#8217;s skyline from there.</p>
