Crystal Jade Golden Palace @ Paragon, Singapore.

First time here after hearing so much about this place, and now I know why. They serve absolutely good dim sum!


Pan fried radish, nice.


Yes, finally a winner chee cheong fun, skin was not thick and silky smooth.


Think was a crispy tofu skin with prawn, crunchy crispy on the outside.



I always stay away from chicken feet, but after the first few dishes, and a nudge by my friend, I tasted it for the first time. Nice.


The usual dim sum dishes fared very well. No complains here. Love the texture.




Yes, that is a porridge, not on the menu, if I'm not mistaken seabass porridge. Get the captain to order for you.


Not sure what soup was this to round up our meal, but definitely tasty and wholesome. I think I've found a personal favourite for dim sum. The food is seriously good and the setting, makes you feel like your dining in a serious fancy/atas dining place.

Wild Honey @ Mandarin Gallery, Orchard, Singapore.

This is my second time here, and it seems they expanded and move to the corner. The old location houses a new pastrami joint also owned by them. I have yet to check it out, soon:)


Quite an extensive menu, if only I had more room to sample it all.


And what a better way to start a brunch with a bloody mary and boy do they do a mean one here. Good stuff. You have a few options to go with your bloody mary, I opted for jalapeno and celery. I would have gone for bacon, but I knew I'm getting some bacons for my mains.


English breakfast, and as the menu stated, the full works. Some scrambled eggs, bacon, sausages, potatoes, mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, some funky baked beans(I loved this!) and brioche. The whole plate was actually something I don't mind waking up to for breakfast any given day. A good place to come to for a good cure for a hangover. Suggest call for reservations in advance, as this place is packed.

Hainanese Chicken Rice @ Chatterbox, Mandarin Orchard, Singapore.

At long last, I've managed to check out the famous chicken rice at Chatterbox.


We ordered the taugeh/beansprouts to share. Quite decent, tasty, the ikan bilis added a nice touch.


The infamous chicken rice, chose the thigh part. Pricey, generous portions.


How did it fare? Good, but the price is a bit pricey, but heck I guess if you're situated smack in the middle of Orchard, the rental is expensive. Plus you pay for the comfort and convenience. The chicken was tender, succulent and the skin was delicious. The condiments and chilli packed quite a punch, the bowl of soup on the side was pretty pleasant.

Sushi Tei @ Paragon, Orchard Road, Singapore.

At last, managed to try Sushi Tei, and boy what have I been missing!


Some mixed platter sashimi of salmon, salmon belly, tuna, and not sure whats the white on. Delicious.


Kaki mentai roll, melt in the mouth. Good stuff.


Some battered sotong/squid. Wished had some beers to wash down with this. Perfect compliment to a glass of beer.


Cha soba.


Dai dai roll, another roll must order. Sounds like die die must order!


The katsu that came with the cha soba. Beautifully crusted. Prices are decent, menu is extensive, and it taste good. I think I've found another favourite japanese joint:)
