Green Tea Latte @ Starbucks

just finished a meeting and drinking one of the best Green Tea Latte i have ever had!

This drink is simply great. It’s milky enough to be a latte and yet still has the dash of green tea in it which makes it simply great! Of course, if the Barista can give this coffee a little more decor or presentation, it would even be better.

Price: S$6.20 (Tall/Small)

Location: Any Starbucks in Singapore

Taste: 4/5

Presentation: 3/5

lunch @ Nobu Shabu

wordpress.com was down for like what.. 2 days!! so angry. i was typing an entry and almost finishing and couldn’t post it.. then i lost the entire entry. sigh…

i just got back from Bangkok at 1030pm (Singapore time). This trip has been fruitful for my work. And of course for my tummy too. I had lunch with Eu at Nobu Shabu (Central World 7th Floor) and enjoyed the Taiwanese-Japanese Shabu Shabu. The dining experience started right at the entrance when we were warmly welcomed by the staff. Everyone was so excited to see us. Maybe because we were the only customers in the restaurant and they were bored waiting around without anything to do! The ambience is nice, and I could see that the owner had a touch of chinese sense in the decoration and menu and food!

§ Nice and cosy interior design

Apparently the owner is local Thai, whose wife is a Taiwanese. Thus the food has a dash of Taiwanese/Chinese influence.

Dinner @ Sun with Moon

It has always been a great experience dining at Sun with Moon @ Wheelock Place. Upon reaching early at 7pm, I wanted to make a reservation for 2 person but was “told off” nicely by the Manager that they could no longer take in anymore reservation as the restaurant and only walk-in customers are entertained.

Sigh.. after hanging around for about another 10 mins, I decided to proceed into the restaurant to wait for M.M.K. to reach. I was shown to the tiny 2 seater table initially and i requested for sofa-seats table. The kind waitress told me that she’ll try her best to get me one the soonest there’s one available. And true enough, after about 10mins, i got the sofa-seats table! hurray for their great started service.

We were overwhelmed by the nice menu, with great and enticing pictures, which were constantly tantalising our hungry stomach and drooling mouth throughout the whole time we were trying to decide what to order. We ordered too many dishes in the end, and I had a hard time stuffing them down my throat!!(she wasn’t so helpful in that lor!! haha…)

We had okonomiyaki, meat yakiniku (which is fun coz you get to bbq them yourself), rainbow roll (this isn’t that great… try the exciting and delicious rolls which Sushi Tei offers instead), scallop and golden mushroom wrapped with beef and cooked in teriyaki sauce (this one is FANTASTIC. it’s a must try.) and many more other food.

For the drinks, they have a wide variety of interesting and refreshing drinks available, even healthy vinegar mocktails are available!

Address: Wheelock Place #03-15/16/17
Tel: +65 6733 6636
Ambience: 4/5
Food: 3.5/5
Price: I spent about $110 for 2 person for dinner

§ The taste and texture is not bad. But it taste real bad once it gets cold!

§ This stir-fried scallop and golden mushroom wrapped with beef is great!

§ We tried this mochi dessert. The more you eat the better it gets. FINISH the corn flakes at the bottom.

Curry Rice

I have been in search of good curry rice recently and there have been reviews that Curry Favor at Stamford House is good. I tried it during a food tasting session with my colleague and i would have to say that the curry is not bad. The main dishes generally tast good. But the price is way too high for the amount and quality of food!! 2 person and we spent about $70 in total
