Along Club Street lies this quaint little colonial style building that houses one of Singapore's well known Italian Restaurant - Senso Ristorante & Bar. Established in 2000, Senso has received numerous awards and nominations for its ambience, food and wine. So it was imperative that we (my gf and I) tried out this place! Reservations weren't made as it was a rather last minute decision and we didn't think it would be too difficult to get a seat on a Sunday evening (Actually we were torn between eating at Senso and Grand Shanghai, but since the latter didn't answer my calls, we chose the former). We got there at about 645pm and were surprised to find that it only opened for dinner at 7pm. Anyway, it was but a short wait and at the stroke of 7, we were shown to our table in the courtyard. Please let me say this. We didn't opt to sit in the courtyard, but there wasn't a choice as we didn't meet the dress code.
It would be almost criminal not to dedicate at least a paragraph to the very pretty courtyard. From the moment I stepped in, it almost felt like I had been transported right into the heart of a warmly lit Tuscan courtyard in Italy, complete with a Greek statue that adorns the gardens. This is definitely one place you must see! There are strong fans around to help the customers keep cool whilst dining. However, it can get quite sticky because of the humid nature of Singapore's weather. The air conditioned interior was rather pleasing as well, with hues of orange and touches of elegance coupled with dim lighting. Decor aside, we had the Mozzarella for starters and the Frutti Di Mare and the Ossobuco for mains. On a side note, we had the chef divide everything up into 2 individual portions so that we could share.
The meal started off with a complementary serving of warm bread and bread sticks, with Chick Pea Puree as a dip. I personally found the bread sticks a little too hard for me, but it tasted quite good, especially with the Chick Pea Puree. The wheat bread was a little too dry for me. I couldn't make out the other bread, but it had onions on top and tasted soft and appetising. Following the bread was a tiny serving of Chick Pea Salad, complementary as well. I found this quite good as the chick peas had a tinge of zest coupled with the evident taste of the basil leaf. Small serving, but it sure packs a punch!
Our appetiser, the Mozzarella, was essentially pan fried Buffalo Mozzarella wrapped in Parma Ham, Marinated Raisins and Pine Kernels in Balsamico (Traditional Balsamic Vinegar). The huge chunk of cheese was a little chewy, yet didn't have too strong a cheese taste. Wrap a slice of Parma Ham around it and dip in the sauce (I think the sauce comes from the Marinated Raisins and Pine Kernels in Balsamico. It tasted a little alcoholic.) and you get nothing short of stupendous. It sure didn't look like cheese though, or anything related to it. Little wonder why this is one of Senso's signature dishes.
With such a wonderful appetiser, we thus looked forward to the mains. The Frutti Di Mare, Carnaroli Risotto with Octopus, Prawns, Mussels, Calamari, fresh Tomato and Basil, was very nicely done without being too heavy on the cream and with the rich texture of the Risotto. It was good, but not fantastic. The Ossobuco, braised Veal shank "Ossobuco" served with mashed Potatoes, Rosemary and Lemon Gremolata was very tender and fibrous, so much so that there was no need to even remove the meat from the bone. The natural Veal taste was very prevalent in this dish, which suited me fine, but people who don't like it might just want to stay away. The accompanying mashed potatoes were soft and had a tinge of butter, but nothing to shout about.
We racked up a total of $93.24 for a very satisfying meal (for me at least). I was stuffed up so much that I could barely walk, which explains the absence of dessert. This is definitely one place you should bring your date or that special someone to. The ambience alone puts many other fine dining restaurants to shame. Service is excellent and so is the food. What more do you need? Do note that prices are quite steep here, but hey, I reckon every dollar is well spent.
I went to this cafe twice. The first time, the table and chairs were placed too close to each other. There wasn't really enough space to sit comfortably without hitting the person behind you.
The second time, the layout and chairs have changed. It's more comfortable. The place can be rather cold for those who cannot stand the cold.
Groups of about 6 can take the tables that are longer. There are about 4 such tables. The orders are written in the order pad given. Although I found it strange that they didn't check their pencils. The one on the table I was sitting at had a broken lead head.
The food took quite a long time to arrive, more than 15 minutes for a basket of potato wedges. The cost is rather reasonable compared to the same basket of potato wedges being sold at Cathay counters. I found more wedges in NEbo than at Cathay.
The staff are very young as this place is catered to the group of ages from 16 - 25. Membership is available to that group age too.
It isn't that bad and more improvements can be made as it is located next to the cinema and the patrons expect the food to arrive fast enough so that they won't enter the cinema late after that.
Ritz apple strudel & cafe has been around for quite some time, but it’s until now then i got the chance to actually try out their strudel which they are famous for.
We went to Ritz apple at Upper Thomson, the outlet is just a stone throw away from Chicken House
The interior of the place is very neat and clean, with simple white furniture.
Durian Strudel mini ($4.80) We made a mistake on this one, Ritz apple strudel is call apple after all, but we had the durian strudel which doesn’t quite make it. The durian is more on the sour side. Period.
Durian Crepe ($4.80) Another mistake since the durian is the same. Actually i heard their apple, or even strawberry is not bad, but my friend likes durian so we ordered durian flavor crepe.
Smoothies ($4.90) The smoothies is quite refreshing, and like the name implies, smoothes the throat!
Cashew Beef ($5.90) Beef isn’t very good when it goes along with nuts, in this case cashew as we find out. The cashew taste is too strong, which clashes with the beef. In the end we take out the beef and eat without the cashew. So much for cashew beef!
Total bill is $20.40 for the desserts. Ritz apple strudel isn’t that expensive considering the mini strudel is $4.80, i guess go for their apple or strawberry flavor and you will be alright, but please leave their durians alone.

Chicken is a very common dish in everybody’s meal table, there are so many different method of cooking it. I guess most people will have heard of Kampong chicken, which is quite unlike your typical chicken found in most places.
The normal chicken is usually injected with hormones, to make them grow faster so that the people who rear the chicken can get more profits. Most people thinks that it isn’t that healthy if the chickens are injected.
Kampong Chickens are different, they are usually rear in a manner where they are allowed to “run free”, instead of staying all day in the cages like the normal chicken. The “run free” manner of growing the chicken allows them to train and “strengthen” their legs and bodies, which make the chicken meat firmer and nicer to eat.
My friend had a craving for kampung chicken, so we went to Chicken House along the stretch of Upper Thomson road where they sell only Kampung chicken.
Half a chicken cost $11, and there are also other dishes like internal organs, vegetables, and thai style chicken feet available.
Apparently the store got featured in some publications as well.
Kampong chicken for 2 people ($8) I guess we can easily finish half a chicken as well, but we just ordered Kampong chicken for 2 servings. Unless you haven’t eaten Kampong chicken before, you should roughly know the texture and taste of it.
Kampong chicken is less meaty compared to the normal chicken, but in this way you won’t get so sick of eating too much meat. The chicken is firmer and nicer to eat!
Oyster sauce Kai Lan ($4) The oyster sauce kai lan is very normal, not very well stir-fried, we couldn’t really finish the vegetables.
Total Bill was $17.10 for 2 person, we had lime juice as well, which in my opinion is one of the beverage that goes well with many type of different food. The Kampong chicken is good, and i guess not that many places sell kampong chicken in Singapore.
So if you got a craving for Kampong chicken, you know where to go!

Ever since the demise of A&W in Singapore, Waffletown is probably the only fast food outlet in Singapore that serves up fried chicken and waffles in a small unit reminiscent of an old school American diner.
Located at Balmoral Plaza, the place isn't big and comes with brown table tops and orange chairs affixed to the ground just like A&W in the old days. A very serene sense of nostalgia sets in and one can't help but relish in the comfort it offers.
2 Piece Chicken Set - The chicken skin was crispy sans the layer of fats beneath, which of course is the lesser of two evils. Meat was moist and juicy and didn't come across as oily as those served up by KFC. Only downside was the seasoning of the chicken, which I personally felt was a little inadequate. The accompanying fries and coleslaw tasted like those ready made ones you can buy off the shelves from any supermarket.
Waffle with Blueberry and Vanilla Ice Cream & Waffle with Blackberry and Rum and Raisin Ice Cream - Since the place is called waffletown, its really a no brainer that waffles are their specialty. The waffles were very crispy but that in itself presents a problem, to me at least. Crispy waffles aren't moist and my idea of an ideal waffle should be crisp on the outside yet moist and full of bite on the inside. It must also be fragrant. Waffletown's waffles fulfilled the aroma criteria but they were crispy inside out, which made it a little like eating crackers. Fortunately, thats where the toppings and ice cream come into play, lending the waffles with additional flavour and moisture. All in all a good eat.
At about $6.70 for a 2 piece chicken set that comes with 2 sides and a drink, Waffletown goes for about the same price as KFC. Quality is much higher here though but there is the problem of location.
Suddenly having carving for pies, so I went down to White Sand shopping centre and look for Polar puffs & cakes.
I purchase 2 chicken pie from them. Promotion price is 2 for $2.90. Usual price is 1 for $1.80.
The outer layer of the pastry is hot and crispy. The butter smell is strong. The filling were still hot when bitting the chicken pie. It has carrots, onions, potatos, geen peas and chicken cube. It has abit of pepper taste not too satly.
I used to remember few years back my dad has always brought puffs for us as supper. At that time the puffs were cheap. Now it has grown abit ex.
The chicken pie was not bad. It nice, just that it is abit oily. Will try the cakes next time.
Over the weekend, not too sure where to have our dinner... We choose Sakae SuShi.
We order 2 Green tea as our drinks, 1 Sashimi Salad, 1 Chicken Shiogayaki Don and 5 colour plate sushi.
1 Sashimi Salad with salad sauce - $7.99
It has lots of greens at the bottom, few slice of salmon, swordfish, cutter fish, ebi and fish roe. We pour half of the sauce into the salad. Not sure what it make of for the sauce but I can taste there is lemon juice and there is some seasme seeds. It taste sweet and sour.
1 Chicken Shiogayaki Don with miso soup - $9.99
Fried Chicken cube with some mayonise cabbage and carrot slice on top of the rice. I can taste there is some ginger taste on the chicken. It goes ok with the rice without any sauce of sides to go with the rice is dry and bland. For the price, the portion is abit small.
1 Inari Cheese(2 pcs) - $2.29
It has salmon, egg, cucumber and floss. The egg crep is bland, can't really taste the cheese. It taste sweet when you bite together.
1 Sun Maki(2 pcs) - $2.29
On top has abit of crab mayonise, avocado. Around the maki there is lots of fish roe. Inside of the of maki there is crab stick and cucumber.
1 Maki(2 pcs) - $2.29
Inside the maki there is cucumber, egg and floss. It wrap with seaweed and rice at the outside. The maki looks big as there is lots of rice.
2 Fried Tofu(4 pcs) - $4.58
Sping onion with sauce on top of the tofu. The outer layer of the tofu is hot and crispy. The tofu is soft. It goes well with the sauce.
Total Bill: $33.28 (10% card discount) (Including Tea, 10% Service charge & 7% GST) (U.P:$$36.70)
Two Hungry gals headed down to this Waraku Branch for some good nosh.
After taking forever to decide what to eat, we finally ordered.
The Hokkai Salad(s), 3 different kinds of sushi,
The Maguro Yukkei Gunkan, Kani Mayo Gunkan and the Negitoro Gunkan.
We also ordered the Dashimaki and the Chicken Houba Yaki.
The Hokkai Salad was good. Sashimi was very fresh and good, and I like the usage of the wasabe and soy sauce making it very refreshing.
Didnt try the sushi except the Maguro Yukkei one and I liked it. Tasted quite weird cos of the Egg yolk but i didnt feel sick after that so it passed.
Dashimaki was nice, done quite well actually. and my Chicken Houba Yaki certainly was intresting. Cooked it myself but enjoyed it throughly. The paste it was cooked on was delicious as well. Good food.
Staff was polite, friendly and service was prompt. Good job
On a wednesday night, at around 8pm, shockingly there wasnt a queue all the way to the next few stalls. Instead, my fren and I managed to be seated in less than 10 minutes. We quickly decided to go for the Sirloin steak and i had the Ribeye Extra Cut. Both of ours were medium.
Our sides were, onion rings, fries, salad, steamed vegetables and an extra order of onion rings.
The steaks came after about 10 minutes. medium done and quite alright. Better than food court steaks anytime. I didnt really like their sauce though. Would much prefer black pepper sauce.
But one thing i really liked was the fries. they were crispy and still soft on the inside. Not oozing with oil and i liked that they sprinkled chilli powder on it. Tasted spicy and delicious.
Total damage done was less than 17 per person. For the amount we ate i felt it was well worth it.
b4 heading to U.D.D.E.R.S for a taste of some sinful hot chocolate.
Met up with CG to fill our hungry tummies at Novena Square. Note: b4 this i was wandering around amazed at how fantastic NS n Square 2 is. Theyve got Cedele, Donut factory, Buttercup and Little Jerry's Cookies. Lucky thing i restrained myself from buyin them.
Since i dont really eat rice, I decided to have the Chicken and Fish Katsu Udon with soup n a Sprite. CG had the stewed pork set and we shared the Cheesy Crab Croquettes.
The crap croquettes were not bad. Cheese was oozin out with each bite though i didnt really taste much cheese.
Didnt try CG's dish but i liked my udon. I grew up with curry, fish, chicken, mutton but the indian kind so tasting this Curry whichwas thick n abit on the sweet side was a different experience and i must admit, i liked it. I did however love the chicken n fish. Not too oily and the chicken wasnt super hard nor was the fish too fishy or unfresh. We didnt have desserts since we were goin to U.D.D.E.R.S.
Service was good. They accidently mixed up my order but was immediately rectified.
One other thing i appreciated is that they seperated the chicken and fish from my Udon, Thus preserving their crispyness as they were fried. Now that I must applaud
Since its a monday, the cheaper dish is at half price.
