Macpherson BBQ Seafood

Macpherson BBQ Seafood and yet the place is not located at Macpherson at all! It supposedly serves one of the best valued for money stingray rice in Singapore. Macpherson BBQ Seafood is located along South Bridge Road. It’s very near to CBD. During lunch time, there is a huge office crowd. If you are working nearby in CBD, I strongly advise you to get there early.

For a price of $5.80 nett, you can get a decent big piece of BBQ Stingray, a poached egg and steamed rice. For this similar size of BBQ Stingray, it will easily cost $10 alone in most Cze Char places. Though the chili serves on top of the Stingray is not spicy, it does go well with the rice. This is especially good for those who don’t take spicy food as me.

Frankly speaking, I can’t complain anything about this thick Stingray for it given price and it fills my stomach. I strongly encourage those working in CBD do try the food here. Besides Stingray rice, it has many dishes such as BBQ squid for a very decent price as well.

Café de Hong Kong

There are so called many Hong Kong Café cafes in Singapore claiming to offer authentic Hong Kong Food. However, most of them are a disappointment to me. I have been hearing good reviews about this particular restaurant. I simply can’t wait to try them since I love Cantonese food so much. This Café De Hong Kong is operated by a real Hong Kong owner, Francis, who has been residing in Singapore for past 20 years together with this team of chefs from Hong Kong as well.

Eatplaylove Café

Calling out all parents all there! As a father myself, I fully understand the need to find a place when it is both child and adult friendly. Most importantly, parents can take part in the activities with their kids for better bonding. A majority of child friendly places such as indoor playgrounds have height constraints for adults. Most of time, we have a difficult time to join them since these places are especially designed for kids. After a while, our bodies start to ache because we have to bend and squeeze ourselves into those small tunnels. Furthermore, these indoor playgrounds have minimum food and beverages for adults since they cater more to kids. Recently, I found a very nice place located near Arab Street that both parents and kids can enjoy together. For those adults who born in the 70s or 80s, you might rekindle some of your childhood memories here.

Ramen Bar Suzuki

Recently I visited this small Ramen eatery in Boat Quay. It is located in one of the Two Storey shop houses near to UOB Plaza in Raffles Place. As the name implied, this is a Ramen Bar and hence, the place is very small. I was there in a group of 6 including myself and might find it quite small to accommodate our group.

Bakerzin

I guess it is no secret for now that Bakerzin is well-known for its desserts in Singapore. It serves high tea as well in case if you are looking for one.

Today I am here just to have the dessert. We order a Warm Chocolate Cake ($11.50) with a scoop of Vanilla ice-cream on top and strawberry sauce surrounding the cake. It will take about 10mins before the dessert is served upon ordering. As the name implied, the cake is indeed warm and rich in chocolate. The chocolate starts to flow out when it is chocolate sponge “breaks”. It is very similar to the chocolate lava cake. Overall, the taste and texture is fine. However, the only complain I have is that this chocolate cake is quite small in size. Given the price of $11.50++, I expect it to be bigger.

Over the years, there are many new competitors springing up offering almost the same concept as Bakerzin. Hope Bakerzin can be more innovative and creative ideas to attract and retain customers.
