Restaurant Review:- Akashi Japanese Restaurant, The Paragon, Orchard Road, Singapore

 The Akashi Japanese Restaurant is at a very convenient location at The Paragon, Orchard Road. It had a free table when we were in the vicinity so we decided to try it out.

 The Menu was quite considerable which probably explains the restaurants appeal to Singaporeans and Foreigners.

 The edamame soy beans were complementary and were tasty and much appreciated.

 The Nabeyaki Udon Set had a lot of healthy vegetables but it did not taste like authentic Udon Noodles. It tasted more like Vegetable Soup with Udon - It was average. The fish pieces were nice though.

 The Oyako Don was tasty and the Chicken pieces were succulent. It was a good choice.

The price was acceptable for that area of Singapore. The service was very slow though. Would we return again? Probably not!!

Restaurant Review :- Kim Gary Hong Kong Restaurant, Ion Orchard, Singapore

We decided to go to Kim Gary Restaurant in Ion Orchard after we saw the Korean Style Hot Plate dishes on offer.

The Almond Tea was tasty and not too sweet.

The yin yong was nothing special - it tasted more like coffee than tea and did not taste like a mixture of them both.

The cream soup and borsch soup arrived first. The Borsch tasted nicer and the Cream Soup just tasted average.  It was part of the set meal.

 The Unagi Hot Plate set was very nice though there was too much rice.
The MangeTout was delicious and the mushrooms were nice.

The Seafood Hotplate set was also average with too much rice. It was not worth the 15 Singapore Dollars we paid for it.

The Kim Gary Hong Kong Restaurant was popular becuase of the Location.

We would not recommend this restaurant. The food was average and it was not good value for Money.

Restaurant Review:- Aloha Ma Maison Hawaiian Kitchen, Bugis +, Victoria Street, Singapore

 We went to Aloha Ma Maison, Hawaiian Kitchen at Bugis + in Singapore.

This is a Hawaiian Theme Restaurant - it being Hawaiian - we thought it would have served large portions!

We were greeted amicably and had two comfortable seats.

 I ordered the spaghetti carbonara. Unfortunately the  spaghetti was too oily and the portion was unexpectedly small!

 The Katsu Curry was also a small portion - but the taste was as to be expected.

It was cooked well.

We thought this was expensive for a meal with small portions.

We would not recommend Aloha Ma Maison Hawaiian Kitchen unless you were going for drinks or Desserts - which look better value!

Restaurant Review:- Ma Maison, Bugis Junction, Singapore

 Ma Maison at Bugis Junction is a very relaxing and feel good restaurant, especially on a Sunday Afternoon.

 The ornate pan european trappings stuck to the walls and ceiling are appealing, as is the sing-along Music.

How could that not attract you?








The Napolitan Spaghetti was very nice - but we  did not really care for the hotdog sausages. On the whole - It was nice though.

 The Chasoba Salad was delicious and refreshing. The presentation was excellent too.We finished the lot!

 Clam Chowder soup was nice but we were a little dissapointed that no bread was served with it. The soup was very nice but the portion was small.

Good value for some nice dishes. The ambient music lifts your spirits. The service was excellent too.

Ma Maison is certainly worth a visit.

Service :- 5/5

Food :- 3/5

Music and Surroundings :- 5/5

Overall :- 5/5

Cafe Review :- Hoshino Coffee, Plaza Singapora, Singapore

We walked around the expanded Plaza Singapura and came across a delightful Japanese Style Cafe. It was very busy and the sweet snacks looked tempting.

 We were met and promptly ushered to a table for two.

The waiter did admit that they were short of waiting staff and unfortunately we did notice this when we ordered. I'm sure the management will sort this out quickly as it is a very popular and nice place.

 The Honey Pancake melted in your mouth and was absolutely delicious. We would not hesitate to order this beauty again. The texture of the pancake was exquisite.

We recommend you try it.

 The Mango Smoothie tasted fresh of the juicer - but not particular special either.

 Being health conscious souls - we love Matcha and the Jot Matcha Latte was tasty - well mixed and the presentation in this fine bowl was nice.

 The Vanilla Souffle was gorgeous - it went particularly well with the Matcha Latte.

The Vanilla center was so tasty. Highly recommended.

Quite an expensive place - as you see - over $40 dollars for 2 - but a really nice place to spend a Saturday Afternoon chatting with Friends and spending some relaxing times. Make sure you beat the crowds though.

2/5 for Service

4/5 for food and drink.

Verdict :- Recommended.

Restaurant Review :- Bali Thai, Suntec Mall, Singapore

Bali Thai in Suntec City Mall is conveniently located with the many restaurants in Basement1 next to the fountain of Wealth.

We got a spacious table and were attended to quickly despite the large number of people in the restaurant.

It is a nicely decorated restuarant with a huge, ornate mirror at the back wall.

I ordered 'Kaeng Khiao Wan Nuer' which is 'Famous Thai Green Beef Curry'.

My friend ordered 'Guy Yang' or 'Chiang Mai Chilled Chicken'.

The Chiang Mai Grilled Chicken tasted as wonderfully as it looks - it was positively delicious!

The Green Curry was fine - there could have been more beef though!!

Thirty two dollars for two people seems a little excessive.


Despite the price, the food was tasty and the service was excellent.


Bali Thai, Suntec deserves 7 out of 10.

Restaurant Review :- Lerk Thai, Centrepoint, Orchard Road, Singapore

I was passing by the Lerk Thai Restuarant at Centrepoint around Lunchtime and decided to go in. The dishes looked spicy and quite authentic.

The restuarant ambience seemed friendly and inviting.

I was seated by the window, as I wished and did not feel rushed to order.

I decided to order the Set Lunch which includes 'Tom Yam' soup and Rice.

The Tom Yam soup was very spicy and I my mouth felt in need of liquid to 'put the fire out'.

There were pieces of fish and prawn in the soup and it was nice but too spicy.

The 'Massaman Curry Chicken and Rice' or 'Gaeng Matsaman Gai' was as good as it looks.

The sauce was a beautiful concoction of Thai Herbs and the Chicken was still on the Bone and had been prepared delightfully.

I would love to come back and have this again it was so good!

I though 16 Singapore Dollars for one person was quite expensive.

Despite this, I would order the Massaman Curry again.

I would give the restaurant 7 out of 10 but 4 out of 10 for value for money!

One downside is they don't serve table water but only stock bottled water!

Restaurant Review :- Crystal Jade Shanghai Restaurant, Changi Airport Terminal 3, Singapore

 If you are flying from Changi Airport, Terminal 3, 'Crystal Jade Shanghai Restaurant' is so convenient to enjoy a pleasant meal before the flight.  The only downside is that the restaurant closes quite early - at 10pm.

I ordered 'Braised rice with beef and tomato'. This was positively delicious. The meat was succulent and the tomato - fresh - what a wonderful taste.

My friend ordered 'Wanton Soup with Seasonal Vegetable'. The soup was very tasty and the Dumplings with Seasonal Vegetables were delicious.

 I had already eaten 2 of the  'Pork Dumplings with Hot Chilli Sauce' when this picture was taken.

The Dumplings were nice - not amazing but just nice - I was unfortunately not brave enough to try the 'Hot Chilli Sauce'.

It was a great relaxing experience to visit this restaurant. Thirty Three Dollars was not that cheap but it is extremely convenient if you are waiting for a flight.
