I arrived in Singapore on Friday noon and directly headed from the airport to meet a Singaporean blogger named Misti for the first time. She brought me for a yummy lunch at Sophia Food Mall - Peace Centre on Sophia Road. It's really great to meet you, Misti and also thank you so much for the yummy lunch! :)

In the evening before dinner, I managed to eat the Azabu Sabo Hokkaido ice cream at Takashimaya food court at Ngee Ann city - Orchard road. It's a recommendation from Nic - Black Tie, White Lie. Thanks, Nic! Too bad, we couldn't meet up, next time, ya? ;)
Interesting how the ice cream is prepared.
I had a double scoops of double berry (a mixture of strawberry and blueberry flavors) and matcha (green tea). I think this is one of the best ice cream I've ever had! The texture is so soft and also creamy. Just perfect after a long hot day :)Dinner at Food Republic at Wisma Atria shopping centre - Orchard Road, together with my ex-colleagues.
I had Nasi Briyani.
A very strong fragrant and savory fried rice with spices (i.e: saffron, ghee, cumin, cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, bay leaves, mint leaves, onion, garlic, coriander, etc.) and a nice crispy fried chicken.
One of my ex-colleagues had this noodle called Mee Rebus that she couldn't finish - not even half of the bowl although she was starving because it tasted too cloying for our Indonesian taste.
The next day, I was invited for lunch at Wee Nam Kee Hainanese Chicken Rice Restaurant, located at 275 Thomson Road #01-05, Novena Ville.
Although this restaurant doesn't look like a fancy restaurant but the food is wonderful delicious.
Black Pepper Crab
I didn't take dinner because I was too full with all the food from lunch but then, at midnight my friends brought me to have a little snack at the Al-Meen Eating House, serving Indian food and also Thai food. It's located on Changi Road.
A traditional Indian blended yoghurt with water, salt, pepper, ice and Indian spices. It's very refreshing.
Boneless chicken marinated with spices.
Last day in Singapore, before heading back to Jakarta, I had breakfast first with my friends at one of the Coffee Bean's outlets in East Coast Parkway.
Wow, you've eaten so many good things there, is HK ur next stop?

ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to be able to hop a plane to Singapore for the weekend. My favorite dish is the roasted chicken but I also would love the pancakes with the dipping sauce. I was surprised to see the masks on the ice cream servers, but that was some scoop of ice cream.
ReplyDeleteSam

ReplyDeleteSounds and looks like you had a fabulous time in Singapore. Thanks for sharing the visit with us, and how nice that you were able to meet a blogging friend. The food looks scrumptious.
ReplyDeleteI also loved your dog cookies on the previous post! Such a busy time for everyone. Hope you are enjoying this special season :)
It sure does sound like you had quite a feasting adventure in Singapore, Selba. The ice cream looks mighty tempting even though it's 30 degrees outside here in New York.
ReplyDeleteI'm intrigued by every single bite although, since I'm still drinking my morning coffee, that Salmon Egg n' Muffin is calling my name.
Thanks for sharing...
All the food looks delicious! No surprise there that Singapore is the culinary capital of the world.
ReplyDeletewow .... so much of food over one week-end...... seems food crazy ...
