This is the coffee shop at this 6 star hotel on Sentosa. My friend & I were looking for a cool spot for a quick lunch after a hot walk along Siloso Beach. Since neither of us had been to the Capella we decided to give it a go. Of course the approach is majestic and the whole property very… Read more…

This new Japanese fusion eatery has emerged from the old Whitebait & Kale premises on the ground floor at Camden medical centre. A visiting friend from Australia suggested we choose somewhere for dinner so yours truly, living quite close, did a recce earlier in the day of dinner. The place has a comfortable layout with separate eating areas including a Teppan bar. This… Read more…

The Trocks were simply sensational – boy can they dance but what fun, so incredibly entertaining. Takes a lot to get me laughing, but last night I had tears running down my face from gigling so much. The comedy aspect is suptle and sophisticated. Tickets are very reasonable and if you are lucky enough to buy one – as they… Read more…

Yantra serves very high end Indian curries and tends to be excellent, however my recent visit to their Sunday brunch was disappointing. Food was more limited in variety and frequently running out ( but perhaps that is a good thing as they did bring out fresh replacements). The service was slow, again I suspect they were understaffed, which is becoming a… Read more…

It is a little more expensive because of the ingredients, expect to pay around $40 to $50 per head for lunch, for a starter + main and coffee…. Read more…

They also have a huge range of Belgian beers, perfect accompaniment to the mussels.. Along with our son we returned… Read more…

A former colleague of my Husband from Scandinavia announed on his arrival in Singapore that he was dying for a Sunday Curry and would generously be our host. What better we thought than this now well established North Indian restaurant tucked away in a quiet corner of Dempsey Hill. The restaurant has an outdoor lounge where you can wait for your… Read more…
