PORTA @ Park Hotel Clarke Quay ~ Find Out What Is Good From Their Refreshed Menu!
There are some places which I'm happy to visit again, and PORTA is one of them.
From the outside, nothing seems to have changed much. Its lovely premises remains as lovely as my previous visit two years back, but the all-day dining restaurant at the lobby of Park Hotel Clarke Quay has since gotten Executive Chef Alex Phan onboard to helm its kitchen.
Chef Alex's rejuvenated menu is said to present a wider repertoire of well-loved European and Mediterranean dishes, combining fresh produce sourced both globally and locally.

Maggie Joan's @ Amoy Street ~ Serving Up Fantastic Modern European Cuisine
The back lane of Gemmill Lane houses a little gem called Maggie Joan's.
Brought to us by Glen and Daniel Ballis, the same father-and-son owner behind Moosehead, the entrance to Maggie Joan's is inconspicuous, and one of my dining companions actually took a while to find the restaurant. But once you can locate it, be ready to be awed by its gorgeous industrial chic interior, and delectable food prepared by Executive Chef Seumas Smith.
It's easy to be impressed by the dining experience that Maggie Joan's offers, just like we did.

Daebak Ghost Pepper Spicy Chicken Noodles! The Spiciest Instant Noodles Ever From Malaysia!
Daebak Ghost Pepper Spicy Chicken Noodles has been dubbed the spiciest instant noodles in Malaysia. What's the fuss all about?
It turns out to be all because of the..... GHOST PEPPER!!! Though not the hottest pepper in the world, it still measures a whopping 1,000,000 Scoville heat units (SHU)! Compare this to the common bird's eye chilli (50,000 to 100,000 SHU), and Samyang's 2X Hot Spicy Chicken Ramen (8,706 to 10,000 SHU), the ghost pepper can be a real menacing challenge to push one's limits.
That's exactly where the thrill is, so we readily accepted the #canornotchallenge!

51 SOHO @ Telok Ayer Street ~ All-Day Dining Joint With Asian & Sichuan Influences. Do Try The Interesting Chinese Wine Cocktails!
51 SOHO is those kind of places where I can park myself there throughout the day, and eat my 5 daily meals lol!!! #thisishowigotfat
Depending on the hour, the menu at this newly-opened joint at 51 Telok Ayer Street changes to suit different needs, beginning with breakfast options in the morning, one-bowl meals for a convenient lunch, to hearty mains for dinner. Light bites are available as well.
While the all-day dining concept is not entirely new, 51 SOHO's interesting offerings and beautiful space does provide refreshed excitability, so it's still worth checking out.

IPPUDO Singapore Launches Seasonal Rich Curry Tonkotsu Ramen! So Slurpilicious!
Hurry for curry! That what I did when I heard that IPPUDO Singapore has launched its latest seasonal ramen - Rich Curry Tonkotsu Ramen - just a few days ago on 15th March.
First thing first, this is not your usual Japanese curry that's typically sweet. The spicy bowl is specially created for the Singapore palate, combining three different types of Japanese curry, and the rich spices of South India (masala, cumin seeds, and cayenne peppers) with IPPUDO's signature tonkotsu broth.
True to expectations, the resultant bowl is full of hearty flavors. Even before I tucked into my bowl, I was already intoxicated with its wonderful aroma which somehow strongly reminds me of.....

Opus Bar & Grill @ Hilton Singapore Celebrates 4th Anniversary With NEW Dishes & FREE Wine!
Pay for steak and get a bottle of wine FREE!!!
No, you're not reading this wrongly. Unbelievable as it might seem, Opus Bar & Grill at Hilton Singapore is doing exactly that in celebration of its 4th anniversary. The offer is valid for the month of March 2019, and available from Sundays until Thursdays.
Opus Bar & Grill is considered to be one of the best steakhouses in Singapore, so it's really a no-brainer that the deal is way too good to be missed.

Kilo Kitchen Finds A New Home At Duxton Road, And Returns With A Delicious Menu
When Kilo Kitchen closed after eight years at Kampong Bugis Road, it doesn't mean goodbye forever. The restaurant simply found a new home at Duxton Road last December, and got closer to its sister property Kilo Lounge which is just a stroll away at Tanjong Pagar Road.
Let's eat, drink, and make merry! That's the vibes I felt when I stepped into Kilo Kitchen's gorgeous premises. The floor-to-ceilings windows allowed the space to be bathe in the warm golden tones of the setting sun and made it even more instagrammable.
I'm so ready for Kilo's menu of modern comfort food that draws from Latin America and Asian influences.

Pasta Supremo @ Suntec City Mall ~ Build Your Own Colourful Handmade Pasta Bowls
A keto diet has been proven (by some of my friends) to be an effective way to lose weight, but it failed big time on me because... I love pastas too much to give it up.
Pasta Supremo ups the temptation factor by offering pasta that are handmade in-house daily, and allowing diners to build their own bowl with a variety of ingredients.
It's up to you if you want your pasta bowl to be over-the-top, instagrammable, or simply a creation that suits your taste buds. But it's definitely not a no-carb friendly choice.

Baba Chews @ Katong Square ~ New Menu With Asian-Inspired Cuisine & Western Classics
Babi Pongteh! Ayam Buah Keluak! Nyonya Chap Chye! I was looking forward to all these Peranakan favourites when we confirmed the date to visit Baba Chews Bar and Eatery, but.....
Their refreshed menu which was recently launched in February took me completely by surprise.
Featuring Asian-inspired cuisine and Western classics, what Baba Chews offers now is certainly not the kind of dishes that the Babas and Nyonya has passed down from generations. While I must admit I was a tad disappointed, the feeling quickly disappeared once we started tucking into the delectable spread.
Traditional might be good, but a modern take on it can be just as pleasing, if not better.

Many countries experience four seasons through the change of weather, but in Singapore, we do it through one of our favourite national hobbies... food!
This spring, Tempura Kohaku will be offering their brand-new seasonal delight, Spring Tendon!
Showcasing the best of spring harvests in a bowl, the Spring Tendon brims with peak-season produce and spring ingredients including deep-fried tilefish, tamagoyaki, white asparagus, bamboo shoots, pickled sakura leaf, as well as Fu (Japanese wheat gluten) which takes on the shape of a sakura flower.
