[Foodie] BrusselsSprouts Belgian Beer + Mussels @ ECP

Heh Heh Readers!!!

First of all, HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVE!!! How are you going to celebrate Halloween this year? For me, I visited this place which has a Halloween Menu... This place is called BrusselsSprouts Belgian Beer + Mussels. Here's a peek at their Halloween Menu. ^^

Pretty awesome and gruesome name huh. Haha... While we were deciding on what to order, I was distracted by the decoration. To keep up with the Halloween theme, you can find cobwebs and spiders around BrusselsSprouts.

Also their waiters and waitresses are dressed up for the said theme. Pretty scary eh...

Ok ok, now for our choices of food. Ordered mainly from the Halloween Menu =D

Slimy Eye Ball (S$18)

Stella Artois, Bluberry Puree

They have included Bluberry Puree into Stella Artois Lager (Beer), to make it look like Eye Balls. Wait for a couple of minutes for Puree to float up then savour the Beer. Loved it =D

Grave Digger Cauldron (Starter Size S$18.50)

Mussels, Spicy Tomato Sauce, Gnocchis and Paprika

There are about 10 to 12 Mussels. But beware, as the name suggest, Grave Digger, this is a very very spicy mixed. It's nice but a little too spicy for me. If you sweat easily, then make sure you drink lotsa water. Wonderful if you are having it in rainy weather. Show you a picture of how spicy it is.... *pant*

Roasted Cod Fillet with Tomato Braised Mussels and Devel beer Sabayon (S$30)

This is not from the Halloween Menu. But it's delicious. Personally I like the tomato Mussels.

Devilish Finger (S$32)

Grilled Lamb Tenderloin, Squid Ink Mashed Potato and Stir-Fried Spinach



Ah ha! Scared? Haha... This is probably the scariest looking dish tonight. When I first cut into the "finger" my heart palpitate nervously. Being trigger-happy, by the time I bite into the Lamb tenderloin, it's not that warm already. Despite the colour, I loved the Squid Ink Mashed Potato (never eaten it before)! It is totally awesome.

Corpse Bride (S$14)

White Chocolate Souffle served with Raspberry Coulis

This is really nice. You have to eat both the White Chocolate Souffle and the Raspberry Coulis together. If not, the White Chocolate is too sweet and the Raspberry is too sour. What I like about this is that, this pastry is served hot. So don't scald your tougue =P

Overall Verdict?
- Service: Despite their scary attire, the service rendered is very good. Haha... in fact they are too polite =D But no complains!
- Haha... I will probably be back after the Halloween theme is over.

[Travel] JB - Season's @ City Square

Harlow Readers!!!

Yeah! I'm back to City Square again!! I will skip all the usual custom checkpoint thingy and go straight to the place I had my lunch in City Square... After lotsa walking, decided to lunch at Season's!!

The restaurant was nearly filled with patrons. Thank God there were still some tables available. We were quickly brought to a table. It took us a little while to decide on the food...

Mango Bubble Tea (RM6.20)

Bubbles were replaced with Chin Chow (aka glass jelly). Not bad in fact, quite a refreshing taste to the usual bubble tea.

Creamy Mushroom Bread Bowl (RM11.90)

The bread were quite hard, so we didn't finish the bread. And also, we were quite apprehensive about the way the chefs handle the bread, so yeah.. we only finish the soup. Yumz...

Nasi Lemak (RM 12.90)

Actually I really like Malaysia's Nasi Lemak. I think that it's really nice and different from those in Singapore.

Sourdough 49ers Beef (RM12.90)



I love this the most. The beef and the cheese is really awesome. It's so juicy that I literally savoured this. If you are a beef lover, you may want to try this dish. Really really awesome.

Note: We went into JB at around 11plus. It took us about 30 mins to clear the custom. If you want to avoid the peak hour to go back, try to be at the custom around 3plus (latest).

Yeah (-^O^-)

[Foodie] Etna Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria @ Duxton

Good Afternoon Readers!!!

If you are craving for Italian food, I have this really really awesome place to recommend. Head down to Etna Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria. The first impression that I had when I stepped into this place was the smell and the coziness.

When we reach at around 7pm, there were not much patrons. The crowd started to come in at around 7.30pm. Anyway, Etna served a wide variety of food and we narrowed it down to the following :-

Bread (FOC)

Antipasto Etna (S$20)

Arancini (rice balls with minced beef / pork and cheese stuffing) with Caponata (cooked salad with aubergine, pepper, zucchini, seasoned with sweetened vinegar)

Linguine con Capesante (S$24)

Flat pasta with scallops in a pink lobster sauce

Taglierini al Nero di Seppia (S$24)

Homemade pasta with squids, prawns and cherry tomato in a black ink sauce

Mousse al Pistacchio (S$10)

Mousse with pistachio flavour (from Bronte in Sicily)

Overall Verdict?
- Service: Awesome! The servers are very polite and attentive. Towards the end, the boss came into the restaurant. He chatted with us, while we waited for the bill. It was then that I learned that they had another restaurant located in East Coast, opened for about 3 years, and that this restaurant was opened for only a few months. Very friendly~~
- Food: Superb! The Antipasto Etna rice ball is very tasty, a spendid mixed. When the Linguine con Capesante was served, I went for the scallops first, it was so juicy and I savoured every bit of it. The pasta was nicely cooked and it was one of the best pasta I had ever had. Taglierini al Nero di Seppia was wonderfully done as well. Mousse al Pistacchio is one of the most delicious dessert ever. My first bite literally send me through orgasm... yes, it was that good.... a must try item *slurp*
- YES! I will revisit this place again ^^

[Foodie] The Orange Lobster @ Orchard Central

Hi Readers!!!

It was because of the promotion that attracted me and my friends to eat here, at The Orange Lobster, 龍虾世家. Apparently they are having their Anniversary Celebration.

So here we are, having this 6-course set meal at S$88, if you have DBS/POSB Card. You might ask what's included? So... here you go...

(1) Sea Urchin with fruits crepe

(2) Signature Live crab porridge (600-700gm)

(3) Shanghai Hairy Crab (170-180gm)

(4) Crispy lotus with salted egg

(5) French beans with fried shrimp

(6) Chef's dessert

Food wise it's okay. I do like the eat the Crispy lotus with salted egg. It's nice and quite addictive. Also, I had never tried Crab Porridge prepared in such a way. It's delicious =D The chef's dessert that day was fried durian. Not bad...

Hmm... the ambience is nice, but somehow, I think it will be a low chance that I will visit in the near future.

[Foodie] Swiss Culture @ Suntec City

Hello Readers!!!

Today I will introduce you to this place call... Swiss Culture!!! Went there on a Saturday in the mid afternoon. It wasn't very crowded, in fact only a couple of tables were occupied. Hmm.. maybe we have missed the lunch crowd. *Shrug*

Anyway, we pondered over the menu for what I feel is a long time. Everything sounds nice and appetizing... and we finally settled on the following :-

Chicken 'Zurich Style' -S$18.80

Chicken slices sauteed in butter and white wine with champignons served with our house rosti potato or butter noodles

Mixed Grill Combo (Single) - S$31.80

Combination of grilled sirloin, chicken leg, beef skewer, grilled German sausage, rosti potato and served with grinded pepper jus and mustard

Overall Verdict?
- Service: Great! The service crews were attentive.
- Food: Chicken 'Zurich Style' was delicious, the you have to try their butter noodles which has a unique taste to it. Mixed Grill Combo (Single) is also nice and I really love the rosti potato.
- I will probably visit again after a few months =D

[Foodie] Imperial Cafe @ Tung Ann Associate Building

Hey Readers!!!

Can anyone guess what is this???? So cute and fascinating is these flower shaped foodie...

According to the Aunty, this is called "Roti Bun" and it costs S$1 per piece. It taste like roti prata with bits of garlic. Pretty cute eh... Never knew that Roti Prata can be shaped in this way. You can buy this from Imperial Cafe -- 141 Cecil Street #01-03 Tung Ann Associate Building.

Alternatively, if you do not like the garlic taste, they can do it without the garlic for you =D hehe...

Good Nite Peepz

[Foodie] Ritz Apple Strudel & Pastry

Hihi Readers!!!

Being a sweet tooth, I'm totally in love with this pastry shop located in Bugis Junction, called Ritz Apple Strudel & Pastry. A friend of mine had introduced this sweet treat to me. I have, especially, loved eating the Apple Strudel. As the sayings goes, picture speaks a thousand words. So, I will let the pictures do some talking first....

*Gosh* I have just eaten dinner... but looking at these pictures makes me hungry again.

Ritz Apple Strudel & Pastry sells a variety of confections. Within this confections, they have different flavours for their strudel (i.e. Apple, Mango, Peach & Blueberry). The above pictures show the half loaf Apple Strudel that costs S$10.50. What I love about this particular Pastry is the crispy crust. As it has to be kept refrigerated, the coldness from the crust gave the illusion that it melts in your mouth. The apple bits found between the crust is not too sweet for me and I thought it blended in very well with the crust. Overall, it was simply too good to be true. <3
