I was attending an event in Sembawang Park when I discovered a hidden gem of a restaurant by the name of Beaulieu House. It used to be the seaside house of a David family who worked in the mining business. It was acquired in the 1910s by the colonial government and housed senior engineers, surveyors […]

A friend recently brought me to a French bar called JUICE that has a totally different vibe from Smoke & Mirrors. There’s no sign whatsoever to indicate the entrance to this hidden drinking hole.

My friend recommended me to try their […]

It’s ironic how I visit Bras Basah Complex regularly but I had no idea there is a Korean barbecue restaurant called Ssak3 Korean BBQ & Bistro on the second floor. It turned out Ssak was originally the Bras Basah branch of the Ssikkek Korean BBQ chain. It was renamed Ssak3 Korean BBQ & Bistro in […]

You have the grab the huge bone with […]
