Everything about Food and Wine
Imperial Restaurant (宏仁堂)
Imperial Restaurant at Four Points by Sheraton has been around in Singapore for a long time, and over the years I had heard quite a few good things about it.
Chui Huay Lim Teochew Cuisine
There is something very comforting about an old school Teochew dinner. No fancy tricks, no need to reinvent anything.
My Homecooked Birthday Dinner
Birthday dinner cooked by Ashley, and this one came with a theme: corn.
Imperial Grand Closure
All the best to Canice and the Imperial Grand team. I look forward to seeing where they set their tables next.
Greek Home Cooking
Missing Greece, I decided to recreate a few dishes that reminded us of our wonderful days in Naxos.
Smash Street / Blind Tiger
One of the perks of Ashley having worked at Scarpetta was getting to know the people behind the food. So when burger cravings struck this evening, she suggested we head to Smash Street, just a few doors away, where some familiar faces have embarked on a new adventure.

Weekend Family Meal
Not every home cooked meal needs a wood fired grill to be memorable. With quality ingredients, a little care and attention, you can still create something that comes close to restaurant standard.
Osteria Mozza
This time, we returned to Osteria Mozza at Hilton Singapore Orchard and took advantage of the American Express Platinum Table For Two dining programme.
The Peranakan Club
Stepping into The Peranakan Club feels like entering a beautifully preserved Peranakan mansion where every detail tells a story.
Butcher’s Block
As always, what makes Butcher's Block stand out is not just Chef Jordan's cooking, but also the team's warm and attentive hospitality.
