While this is a pretty good list to keep anyone interested for awhile, there's still <b>so much more good food to introduce to you at Upper Thomson</b> ! Some of the eateries listed here have been operating here even before I moved here 16 years ago. The fact that they can survive and prosper for so long is evidence that their food is yum, yum, yum... Whenever I tell someone (especially taxi drivers) that I live at Upper Thomson, they will say "There's a lot of good food there to eat ah..."<br />
Hahaha I truly live in paradise!!! </div>

<h1>Hwa Nam Restaurant Upper Thomson Road</h1></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Hwa Nam Restaurant is one of those traditional coffee shops that give you a sense of what it was like in Singapore way before Ion was built. The usual thing you spot when you walk past is their Dim Sum which is on display for you to choose and will be heat up on the spot. They also offer Roast Meats and Tze Char. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

I personally like to go for the Dim Sum as it has this nostalgic and authentic feeling. It's also conveniently located along Upper Thomson Road. Because it's a coffeeshop, prices are very affordable and my favorite No GST and No Service Charge.</div>

Ordered fish porridge because they didn't have Century Egg porridge. There's also chicken and duck porridge. The interesting thing is that they have cabbage inside the porridge which can be a bit shocking, but actually a very good idea. It's healthier and in a way forces you to have a dose of fibre. They use grass carp, which is similar to Crystal Jade. </div>

<h2>Dim Sum Upper Thomson Hwa Nam Restaurant</h2></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you're craving for Dim Sum at affordable price, do check out Hwa Nam because this kind of Old School Coffee Shops are getting fewer and fewer. It may just be a matter of time that they will renevote, upgrade or even change owner. It is always nice to have some piece of heritage to hold on to. At night, I mostly see people ordering Zi Char, and in particular the Hor Fun. </div>

Habitat Coffee Upper Thomson Brunch Review</h1>
Birthday boy was craving some poached eggs so it was a good opportunity for us to try the brunch menu at Habitat Coffee. Usually dining here on weekdays meant I could finally experience the weekend crowd here. I have written about their non-brunch food here <a href="http://upperthomsonroadsingapore.blogspot.sg/search/label/Habitat%20Coffee%20Upper%20Thomson" target="_blank">Habitat Coffee Review</a> and also provided their menu here <a href="http://upperthomsonroadsingapore.blogspot.sg/2013/08/habitat-coffee-upper-thomson-menu.html" target="_blank">Habitat Coffee Upper Thomson Menu</a><br />

The place was packed when we arrived at 3pm. Managed to get a table for 2 at the upstairs area which I felt was quite squeezy. Luckily the table next to us left after awhile and we gladly combined tables for a more breathable time. <div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">The Big Ben with poached egg </td></tr>
</tbody></table>
Though their selection isn't very wide, I think quality is the most important factor coupled with good prices. I find the Big Ben very affordable at $14 for a hearty set that comes with a juicy sausage, ham, baked tomato, english muffin and potato pancakes. The set comes with scrambled eggs but I opted to switch to one poached egg, for no additional charge. The potato pancakes were delicious and probably healthier than the usual hashbrowns. I was very pleased with the portion of the set which was just right. Their special homemade hollandaise sauce is also very good with a more runny texture which I really liked.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Waffle Sunrise with extra mushrooms</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
The next choice I made was the Waffles Sunrise because it's a wonderful combination of both sweet and savoury aspects of breakfast. Getting to eat one bite of scrambled eggs, and then the next bite of waffles with maple syrup is the best way to enjoy food. The eggs were abit tasteless on their own but when eaten with the homemade hollandaise sauce, it becomes a star party in the mouth. I added on an extra side of sauteed mushrooms, though I was abit disappointed because I prefer white button mushooms to shitake mushrooms. <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<br />
For drinks, we ordered a delicious caramel iced coffee and iced chocolate. Haven't yet mastered the art of making a picture of iced coffee look nice so I shall not include them. You have to try their coffee to know how good it is.<br />

<h2>
Habitat Coffee Brunch Review</h2>
Overall I'm very pleased with the price and quality of the brunch at Habitat Coffee. They have never failed me in terms of their food or drinks. The coffee is especially commendable as they manage to bring out the flavor of the coffee without overpowering it with any additional flavors I choose such as Caramel which usually tends to turn out too sweet in many places. Definitely worth the slight crowded-ness of the weekend.<br />

Crust Pizza Upper Thomson Review</h1>
Crust Pizza is so far the longest standing Pizza shop along Upper Thomson Road, not including Pizza Hut in Thomson Plaza and Domino's delivery at Sin Ming Road. Seldom see business bustling, even the weekend crowd wouldn't be considered too great in my opinion.<br />
<br />
I ate here during their opening but haven't been back since as my parents are not really pizza fans. However, I popped by for dinner as it was just Mom and I that night. We ordered a Caesar Salad and half-half pizza of five spice pork belly and the smoked ham with pineapple (hawaiian).<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo3k7S1fC70VFS6s3xpHxqtE0CYLa5GfIHf-D4ouysRJCtG0lUzSU0e_KZQTbj_fIGELCfBDhxUuhkmHXNib7c5cbyR31fm5GlW4ctIexLkLc21ZONjILUWz_lFRYzvCUeR39VEzINkBBL/s1600/20131010_202721.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjo3k7S1fC70VFS6s3xpHxqtE0CYLa5GfIHf-D4ouysRJCtG0lUzSU0e_KZQTbj_fIGELCfBDhxUuhkmHXNib7c5cbyR31fm5GlW4ctIexLkLc21ZONjILUWz_lFRYzvCUeR39VEzINkBBL/s320/20131010_202721.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
The salad was quite good as they are generous with the ingredients and the vegetables are very fresh. They sauce came seperately so I could mix it to my own liking. I was very pleased with this as I don't like to see the vegetables smeared with sauce. The croutons tasted a bit strange/sour to me but Mom said it tasted normal. There are also this huge chunks of bacon bits which were very surprisingly tasty.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
On the left is the five spice pork belly and on the right is the smoked ham with pineapple. Both have picture features on the menu which is why I chose them. In conclusion, hawaiian pizza will never go wrong. The five spice pork belly flavor was abit too salty as they use a peking duck style sauce which was quite unbearable in my opinion. Though the taste was balanced out with a soft poached pear and walnuts, I hope their chef can look into the sauce.<br />
<br />
Actually I really like the pizza dough as it is a bit crispy and a bit soft. As the pizza slowly cooled down and I had my 3rd slice, the dough still wasn't soggy.<br />
<br />
Service was good as we were the only table that night. Dedicated service and I felt like we had booked the whole place for a romantic dinner.<br />

Crust Pizza Singapore Upper Thomson Overall Review</h2>
Overall, I think that this place is worth visiting for their extensive choices of pizza flavor. Just because I had one bad flavor doesn't mean I'll rule out this place forever. They have alot of unique flavors which I'd like to go back and try.<br />

They have a departure/ arrival style menu like where you would go check flight timings at the airport. Then you order from their friendly 'cabin crew' and collect your ice cream from the pint belt like collecting your baggage and start your journey around the world. </span></td></tr>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , "times" , serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.625px;">It would be a great place to plan holiday trips as they have travel maps, guidebooks and magazines on display. There are also these notebooks where customers have written down their recommendations on where to go too. The sitting area reminded me of study areas in the library. It makes for a good discussion area if you are planning a trip with friends. </span><br />

Ordered an Affogato and 3 scoops of Ice cream. Was quite surprised that we could choose which flavor of ice cream to go with the Affogato as most places just serve it with Vanilla. You could get really creative i guess. Perhaps coffee and Earl Grey Tea ice cream to get a Yuan Yang?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 15px; text-align: left;">
The Affogato looked more like a float as the Ice Cream was floating at the top of this big cup of coffee. Perhaps their espresso shot is larger than usual. </div>

The Earl Grey flavor was unanimously the best out of the 3. I would definitely come back when I'm craving this flavor as it tastes as good as drinking a cup of hot tea, but iced. The Cookies and Cream which I chose was disappointing as I was expecting something creamy with lots of cookie chunks similar to the Haagen Daaz tub :p Horlicks flavor was quite light but was nice too. So in order of preference for the night would have to be 1. Earl Grey 2. Horlicks 3. Cookies & Cream.<br />

Every other ice cream shop uses the word “artisanal” so we’ll make it
sound simple. We handmake all our ice creams from scratch – just basic
ingredients milk, cream and sugars. No artificial flavouring, no
colouring, nothing fake. Every single bin of ice cream is painstakingly
hand whisked (hello triceps and biceps!) and churned in small batches in
our kitchen.<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.625px;"> </span><span style="line-height: 24.625px;"> </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 24.625px;">We squeeze the most out of our ingredients – vanilla pods are scraped
clean of beans, premium early grey leaves soak a night (or two) before
churning, bananas are perfectly ripe and caramelized, gummy bears bathed
in vodka till they’re drunk – to ensure that our flavours are rich and
luxurious.</span></div>

<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="font-size: 15px;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
New flavours and mix-ins dance around in our minds every waking
moment (even in the shower!) and we approach every new trial with
excitement and anticipation. With that said, there are rounds of trial
and error for each new flavour before it gets to wave to customers on
our shelves.</div>

Overall I like Neli's Ice Cream for their cool Mint and White color scheme and spacious layout. Would come back to try their other flavors as the Ribena Sorbet has caught my eye. Heard that they have Gummy Bears soaked in vodka in them. I used to always mix Gummy Bears with my ice cream at ColdRock Creamery. </div>

New Ubin Seafood Sin Ming Review</h1>
Nestled in one of the industrial areas of Sin Ming, facing auto repair shops, Ubin Seafood is a place which requires effort to get to. It's located right at the end of the lane and would be quite a distance to walk in. The parking area looks quite dark and secluded though the food is well worth it.<br />

Opened in !986, Ubin Seafood has expanded their culinary expertise to serve not only fresh seafood and traditional zi char, but also a Singaporean take on American, French, Italian and Indian cuisines. I seriously questioned why there was such a mashup of different styles on offer, but I believe that what matters is the quality of the food. I'm sure they had to be pretty confident that everything on the menu is delicious in order to include it. </div>

When I think of beef at a Zi Char stall, I'd think of black bean sauce, spring onion and ginger or even black pepper sauce. However, reviews were all raving about this Angus Ribeye steak, so we definitely had to order it. We chose to have it done Medium-Well because my friend doesn't like bloody meat. I think it is done really well because it retains the juicy flavor with a very nice texture. Apparently, the mark of a good chef is making Well-done beef taste good. Ubin Seafood has really set the mark here. The price is definitely reasonable at $10 per 100g. Minimum cuts start at 500g.<br />

This beef fried rice is fried using the remaining fat and oil from the above steak. Was shocked when I first saw someone say this fried rice costs $50. I was like "Is the Beef Fried Rice at Ubin Seafood really $50??!!". Really breathed a sigh of relief when the beef fried rice and steak comes in a set. So it's really worth it to get 2 things for the price of 1.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
On first glance it looked like Claypot rice, dark in color, with this chaota (burnt) black bits. I am guessing that those burnt looking things are fats or tendons? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyway it is definitely something I have never tasted. The rice is oily without tasting too heavy. I especially liked eating the beef and the fried rice together, as shown below. </div>

<h2>
New Ubin Seafood Beef</h2>
The star of the night if the Beef at New Ubin Seafood. The meat is chunky, juicy and tender. I think it is cooked very well and makes it good for sharing as compared to eating an entire slab of steak as a main course. It comes with potato wedges and caramelized onions. Haven't eaten such good caramelized onions in awhile. It is definitely a must try.<br />

New Ubin Seafood Restaurant Menu</h2>
This is truly an extensive menu they have. There is the usual stuff you would find at a Zi Char (Tze Char) Stall, and they also go the extra mile with their selection of Western style meats as well as BBQ Seafood. Do check out their promotions like 1 for 1 lobsters and 2+1 Crabs.<br />

I've been craving their yam porridge for 3 weeks now and each time I go to Shunfu market. I find this stall closed ! I discovered that they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays which are the days I have been finding my cravings the strongest.<br />
<br />
I usually come here on weekends for breakfast. They seem to make more of everything on the weekends knowing that there will be a bigger crowd. Today (Wednesday) the porridge was already sold out at 1030am.<br />
<br />
I decided on the Soon Kueh and Yam Cake (Orh Kueh). Was quite pricey actually because 1 Soon Kueh costs $1.10. But definitely worth it because I love the chewy sticky texture of the skin and the delicious filling. I found out that they use the Suan Pan Zi (Abacus) dough and roll it very thin to make the skin, thats why it is quite different from other Soon Kueys.<br />
<br />
The yam cake here is also very reliable as it is a significant grey color which I assume that they have put a considerable amount of yam to give it the color and authentic taste. You can feel the sticky texture and yam flavor.<br />
<br />
They are well known for the Suan Pan Zi (Abacus) as these are a very traditional Hakka food and is not often found in hawker centres or even restaurants. They taste sticky and doughy like Italian gnocchi pasta. Though it is also sticky and chewy, I'm not a fan of it.<br />

See how the base of the shoe is curved. This means that you are actually working your calves to balance your weight when you are walking or running. The diagonal SmartShoe bottom design makes it a toning shoe that is a Skechers signature. These 2 factors are the selling points of the shoe and I just knew this was the sports shoe for me. </div>

Hungry Planet What The World Eats By Peter Menzel</h1>
Someone posted this article <a href="http://www.blogger.com/%22http://rawforbeauty.com/blog/what-a-week-of-groceries-looks-like-around-the-world.html">What A Week Of Groceries Looks Like Around The World</a> on Facebook, and my first reaction was "We haven't bought a week of groceries in a long time". Our family is one of those that belong in the 'Eat-Out Culture' where at least 95% of our meals are taken outside the home. <br />
<br />
Things we buy when (and if) we go grocery shopping : Milk, fruits, shampoo, soap, detergent, toothbrush, yakult<br />
<br />
Award winning photographer Peter Menzel and Faith D'Aluision visited 24 countries and photographed 30 families, showing their weekly food supplies. This photo collection explores the different eating habits around the world, showing us their diet and lifestyle.<br />
<br />
<img alt="Hungry Planet: What the World Eats" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/International/ld_food_one_week_india_nt_130507_ssh.jpg" /><br />
Close to home, in Madhya Pradesh, India, the Patkar family spend $39.27 a week.<br />
I can see they are planning to use lots of red onions (which I am not very sure of how to use in cooking).<br />
<br />
<img alt="Hungry Planet: What the World Eats" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/International/ld_food_one_week_japan_nt_130507_ssh.jpg" /><br />
In Yomitan Village, Japan, the Matsuda family spend $214.26 a week. I'm feeling pleased that they use the Japanese curry in a box too (bottom right of table). I also love how this picture depicts that Japanese people live for a long time.<br />
<br />
<img alt="China: The Dong family of Beijing. Food expenditure for one week: 1,233.76 Yuan or $155.06. Favorite foods: fried shredded pork with sweet and sour sauce." src="http://timeglobalspin.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/chi103_0001_xxf1rw1.jpg?w=720" /><br />
Dong family in Beijing, China spend $155.06 for one week. Think they are going to have a nice steaming hotpot as I can see the cooker. <br />
<br />
<img alt="Hungry Planet: What the World Eats" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/International/ld_food_one_week_kuwait_nt_130507_ssh.jpg" /><br />
In Kuwait, The Al Haggan family (and their two Nepali servants) spend $221.45 a week. Can't recognise most of the food they use. Ooh can you spot Pita bread ?<br />
<br />
<img alt="Hungry Planet: What the World Eats" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/International/ld_food_one_week_mongolia_nt_130507_ssh.jpg" /><br />
Here is the Batsuuri family in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia spending $40.02 a week. I think they can't buy too much meat because it has to fit inside that small fridge in the back.<br />
<br />
<br />
<img alt="Hungry Planet: What the World Eats" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/International/ld_food_one_week_italy_nt_130507_ssh.jpg" /><br />
The Manzo family of Palermo spend 214.36 Euros $260.11 a week in Sicily, Italy. Wonder if all those loaves of bread were on discount. Also it's Italy, so I see bags of pasta and canned tomatoes. 6 bottle of sweet drinks and 2 bottles of water?<br />
<br />
<img alt="Hungry Planet: What the World Eats" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/International/ld_food_one_week_mexico_nt_130507_ssh.jpg" /><br />
Cuernavaca, Mexico where the Casales family spend $189.09 a week. Look at how much Coke they drink. But they also balance it out with a whole table of fruits.<br />
<br />
<img alt="Guatemala: The Mendozas of Todos Santos - Food expenditure for one week: 573 Quetzales or $75.70. Family Recipe: Turkey Stew and Susana Perez Matias&#039;s Sheep Soup." src="http://timeglobalspin.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/gua02_0001_xxf1s2.jpg?w=720" /><br />
In Guatemala, The Mendozas spend $75.70 a week. I love their matching outfits. By looking at the amount of carrots and potatos, I think they must be making stews.<br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span><br />
Lets take a look at the other end of the spectrum.<br />
<br />
<img alt="Ecuador: The Ayme family of Tingo. Food expenditure for one week: $31.55. Family recipe: Potato soup with cabbage." src="http://timeglobalspin.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/ecu04_0001_xxf1rw1.jpg?w=720" /><br />
The Ayme family in Tingo, Ecuador spend $31.55 a week and look at how many mouths they feed. The key to making bananas last is that you buy them in varying degrees of ripeness. The green ones will turn yellow as the week progresses so no bananas spoil and you have fresh, ripe bananas everyday.<br />
<br />
<img alt="Mali: The Natomos of Kouakourou - Food expenditure for one week: 17,670 francs or $26.39. Family Recipe: Natomo Family Rice Dish." src="http://timeglobalspin.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/mal01_0001_xxf1s2.jpg?w=720" /><br />
The Natomos in Mali spend $26.39 a week. Milk for the babies and lots of rice and beans for the rest.<br />
<br />
<img alt="Bhutan: The Namgay family of Shingkhey Village. Food expenditure for one week: 224.93 ngultrum or $5.03. Family recipe: Mushroom, cheese and pork." src="http://timeglobalspin.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/bhu01_0001_xxf1s1.jpg?w=720" /><br />
I shall end off with Bhutan, the happiest country in the world. The Namgay family in Shingkhey Village spend $5.03 each week. They have much more mouths to feed. Perhaps they have some more food which is homegrown not shown in the picture?<br />

Hungry Planet What The World Eats</h2>
Doing research for this post has opened my eyes to see that I am really fortunate to live in Singapore. There is plenty of meat and vegetables and pretty much anything to eat here. I also see that planning goes into creating meals and thus grocery lists. I usually pop by to NTUC or ShengSiong to buy the ingredients whenever I want to cook something. That would be quite time consuming method if I were to be cooking everyday for a family of 5 or 6. So many different choices and lifestyles we have around the world.<br />
<br />
What do you buy when grocery shopping and how much do you spend ??<br />

Grub just opened in May this year at my beloved Bishan Park. I heard lots of friends saying that the queue for a table was insane long, so I didn't pay them a visit till now. The favorite thing I like is that they have this screen at the alfresco area that flashes up pictures. Initially I thought they just showed the food that is on the menu, but on further inspection, I saw that they are instagrams posted by patrons of grub. So i posted a picture of our group with a hashtag #grubsg. Halfway through the meal I spotted the picture that I had posted on the screen !! Excitedly I ran to take a picture of it and thus the next picture is a picture of me taking a picture of it. <br />

<br />
Grub doesn't take reservations so you have to go there and put your name down. They also don't allow you to queue outside the restaurant, thus we took the time to enjoy a nice stroll around the park. Was surprised that we only had to wait for about half an hour before receiving a phone call saying that our table was ready. I enjoyed that we sat at the alfresco area as it was a cooling night with a beautiful breeze. They have an indoor seating area which would be suitable for hot afternoons. <br />

I decided on their signature Grub Burger and it was pretty good. I would definitely order the burger again. Then came dessert time ! We just can't resist our sweet tooth. Everything sounded really yummy so we ordered 3 desserts to share. <br />

This is a chocolate pot with a spicy crumble. I really loved the chocolate texture and the spiciness of the crumble added a surprising element to the dessert. When eating it together, there is a lingering warmth left in the mouth. <br />

I am predisposed to bananas so I really loved this banana waffle served with salted caramel and chocolate sauce. The waffle texture is the way I like it, abit crispy on the outside and soft and sweet on the inside. See how big are the bananas. Could enjoy a big chunk with every bite. <br />

Macritchie Reservoir Mushroom Cafe</h1>
We are so lucky to live in a country which is so developed as a city and business centre, and yet still be surrounded with lots of greenery and nature. Really easy to get away from the hustle and bustle and retreat to nature for awhile.<br />
<br />
If you don't want to hang out with the greenery, you can go to Mushroom Cafe and hang out. The alfresco dining area within Macritchie Reservoir gives you a relaxing feeling that will definitely take your mind off the daily tensions and stress. They also serve healthy food which is good because I feel that good food always makes me feel lighter. The food is easier to digest and I'm more energetic afterwards.<br />
<br />
So if you're wondering what to eat when you're at Macritchie Reservoir, of if you're looking for a nice place to relax and have a nice meal.... do visit <br />
<h2>
Macritchie Reservoir Cafe</h2>
To get there by Bus, 52, 74, 93, 130, 132, 156, 157, 162, 165, 166, 167, 852,
855, 980.<br />
Alight along Lornie Road at the bus-stop in front of
MacRitchie Reservoir Park.<br /> <br /> If driving, entrance to the MacRitchie Reservoir Park car park is along Lornie Road.<br /><br />
Nearest MRT station at Marymount MRT (Circle line) located 2km away from MacRitchie Reservoir Park.<br />

Mookata Upper Thomson</h1>
Was really excited to see this new Mookata stall because my family have never tried it before and it would be fun to eat it together since it's traditionally a gathering food in Thailand. I'm not good at remembering stall names but this one is quite quirky... 'Thai Me Up". <br />

Mookata literally means pork skillet in Thai.<br />
It is one of the favourite get-together meals in Thailand.<br />
What attracted me was the bond it creates among people.<br />
Friends would criticise the food/chilli together or love it.<br />
Family members would boast about "ah" I can make a better one.<br />
Whether good or bad, there is communication.<br />
I really hope to bring this harmony between you and your loved ones!<br />
and of course good food.<br />
Thus, I present to you, Mookata<br />

My dad was so creative. Because the Mookata soup gets quite salty after the meat juices flow in, and also the egg is quite hard to eat when beaten in the soup, my dad suggested pouring the egg over the cooked meat to make an omelette. Best idea ever ! I posted a video of it on Instagram.<br />
<br />
Chan Jin Mookata ! Which means I eat Mookata in Thai. hehheh I hope I remember correctly :p<br />

This isn't my first time eating here. Fat Boys is my Upper Thomson go-to place for burgers now. Pretty much my anywhere go-to place when I crave burgers because it's conveniently located. Love that there is straight bus for my friends to come here for dinner. 410 from Bishan. 163 from Toa Payoh or Sengkang. 166/162/132/130 from Ang Mo Kio. 165 from Hougang. Just to make my point that it is very accessible. <br />

They use a black, red and white theme which can never really go wrong. Creative direction chosen by men probably? The layout is modern while the music playing gives it a retro American diner feel similar to what you'd expect at Billy Bombers. Overall the ambience is good as it doesn't come off too tacky. Very acceptable as a hangout place for me. <br />
<br />
The menu is so filled with words I had challenge reading through it all. Ended up choosing my burger based on the names because I was too hungry. We selected the Fat Basterd and Swiss Shroom. I'm not very particular about the different types of buns and cheeses, but I might create my very own burger by adding different things together the next time. <br />

Here's the Fat Basterd. Double beef chuck goodness. The juicy patties are perfection. Juicy and just the right flavor. #nuffsaid #justeat<br />

Here's the Swiss Shroom. Didn't manage to get a picture of the juicy Shitake Mushrooms hidden under that holey looking piece of cheese but they were really generous with the mushrooms. I really liked the wholemeal bun which it came in too. Or was it the garlic aioli sauce spread on the bun? It was very tasty to me. <br />

Kinda feel bad cos 3 of us shared 2 burgers. But the Fat Basterd really is too much for one person to eat. You can choose the Wimpy version of it, which has one beef patty instead of two. Not that I'm on a diet or anything but the portion really is quite big and comes with fries too. Overeating makes me feel so uncomfortable and bloated so have to follow what my body needs. Don't want to end up looking like the Fat Boys mascot anyway who just looks unhappy. Healthy body is a happy body :)<br />

The prices are reasonable also because of the location, and it's not air-conditioned. But the place is well ventilated with fans and I didn't feel sweaty or stuffy.

Fat Boys Burger Thomson Menu </h2>
I've listed out the menu above. But here's a picture of what the menu looks like. Wide variety and lots to choose from. See how they crammed so many words into one piece of menu. You can even mix and match to create your very own burger in 4 simple steps.<br />
step 1: Choose your bun<br />
step 2: Choose the meat patty <br />
step 3: Add on any extras like cheese, bacon, egg etc<br />
step 4: Top off with a sauce <br />

Mookata has been sprouting up all around the place, proving that this Thai Steamboat is getting more popular in Singapore. I first had Mookata in Golden Mile, going home with a full belly, fun time with friends and smelling like I got smoked like smoke </div>
<div>
I'm really pleased to share about this Mookata shop in Toa Payoh/ Braddell. </div>

<div>
What I love about it ? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. Near Upper Thomson Road!!</div>
<div>
2. Best price </div>
<div>
3. Lots of parking lots</div>
<div>
4. Open Air</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This shop is located in the food court of an industrial estate so I expect it gets really crowded during lunch time. I don't think you'd want to eat barbecue or steamboat in the afternoon because you would be sweaty and uncomfortable. I went there at night and it was the best location we could ask for as there was plenty of parking, and the open air seating meant it was cooling and our clothes didn't smell strongly of barbecue when we went home.</div>

One set costs $32 and comes with one plate of assorted meat and one plate of vegetables. Super worth it because I've been to places that serves much less, for more expensive. Some places squeeze veggies and meat onto one plate. I was so suprised with the generous serving here.<br />

I feel that it's also very traditional as they cook using charcoal, instead of the usual portable gas stoves. No need to ask them to change the gas canister and feel frustrated. <div>

Add the leek into the soup to make it sweeter. Later on, the juice from the cooking meats will flow into the soup and make it more tasty too. The soup taste constantly changes.<br />

Macritchie Reservoir Things To Do</h1>
<div>
There's lots to do in Macritchie Reservoir. Mainly because it's very big, it has to be if it's a water catchment area that collects rain water and then comes out from our pipes as drinking water. There's the HSBC TreeTop Walk, various walking trails, and even a off-the-track Shinto Shrine (which I just found out about while doing research for this post). </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But I'm gonna give you a peek into Upper Thomson Road living, and what I would usually do at Macritchie. The simplest things can bring happiness and this doesn't require too much time. I doubt that I would do this often if I didn't live near to this beautiful park. </div>

Some days I just want to be out in nature, breathe some fresh air, let loose from the stress of daily life. Not planning to spend too long here, I'll take a walk along the zigzag bridge, then come back around to where I started. It's easy to spot tortoises/terrapins here and some fishes if you look carefully. There's a submerged boardwalk that they recently added too. I really like coming here because I had a band performance in the platform area just after it was newly renovated. My family stood on the opposite side and could barely hear the music we played but I have such fond memories of it. Will be a unforgettable part of my life. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Wildlife is all around you in Macritchie, if only you make use of your senses to spot them. You don't have to venture too far in the forest. Can you spot the beautiful lizards in the pictures below? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you hear a rustling sound on the grass or in the bushes, it could be a lizard. Look out for them, you'll need to have good hearing and sharp eyes to do so. If in sight and you want to get closer, move slowly so you don't startle it and you might be able to take a picture ! </div>

I usually spend about 1 hour at Macritchie just to enjoy the greenery and peaceful surroundings. I might just find a bench and sit somewhere to enjoy the silence. On days that I want to challenge myself, I'd walk to Jelutong Tower. </div>
<h2>
Macritchie Reservoir Walk</h2>
<div>
Planning a half day walk on one of the Macritchie Reservoir trails may be too ambitious. I think taking some time out to enjoy nature can bring peace and rejuvenation. So if you feel too lazy to spend 4hours in the forest, just set a time limit and explore around the carpark. Reward yourself with a healthy meal afterwards at Mushroom Cafe located beside the locker/changing room/toilet just next to the carpark. Super convenient. </div>

The pasta has big pieces of sausage, which taste freshly made and good quality. Freshly made processed sausages are a real thing right. It's somewhat like a usual Carbonara, but the sauce isn't as heavy, so I would go for this again. </div>

Oh, I was really glad cos the Shepherd's Pie is made of CHICKEN. Which seemed quite unusual but good at the same time. So if you like the mashed potato on top, but don't really eat beef or lamb, do try this one at Habitat Coffee. Would it be considered Halal?<br />

I'm not a big fan of Truffle Fries, but Truffle Oil is quite expensive which seems to make it more popular and taste nicer. To me, it's a bit of an acquired taste, but I still couldn't help my hands from grabbing another and another and another of the crunchy fries.<br />

Dessert time !<br />
It must be the good coffee, or the irish cream that made this so tasty. I wonder if the barrister would make a new cup if the art on the top turned out ugly. Coffee art always puts a smile on my face, though they only last for the few moments.<br />

Top shelf of the cake display, I saw this cake and was immediately drawn to it. Left the last 2 slices, so it should be quite popular. Glad that it didn't disappoint me.<br />

Not the best waffles I've had as they're made to be crispy. It says somewhere in the menu "crispy waffles" so they probably taste better with some melted ice cream. Drowned them in maple syrup instead.<br />

And here's my ever-favorite Affogato. A scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream, and a shot of espresso. The experience of pouring the espresso over the ice cream yourself is much more satisfying than having it served to you already mixed. The first mouth of hot coffee with ice cold ice cream is the best.<br />

Habitat Coffee Singapore Review</h2>
<div>
Overall, I have to say that I highly recommend Habitat Coffee because the food, desserts and drinks are all really good. Definitely try the Affogato if you haven't had one before. The food selection is just sufficient that I can feel each dish is well prepared. It's tasty, it's hot and fresh. There's really nothing I can complain about the food we ordered. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I just love places that don't add GST/Service charge such as Habitat Coffee. The prices are affordable, so I will definitely come back when I crave for pasta. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's got a good location, with a bus stop just outside, that my friends found it so convenient. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Thank you Habitat Coffee for adding to the vibrant food/coffee scene at Upper Thomson !! </div>

Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant Reviews</h1>
I had a sudden craving for Korean Ginseng Chicken with Glutinous Rice. Thankfully, my family agreed to have our Saturday dinner at <b>Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant (Upper Thomson)</b>. Due to the haze, mum had asked if we could go to Parker's Korean Food instead. But I told her we wanted to do a review for Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant so she said ok.<br />
<br />
When we arrived at 8+pm, <b>Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant</b> was full and there was a short queue...<br />

It was a real surprise to all of us that there is an 'upstairs' for Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant. And it's no wonder we didn't know...<br />
<br />
The door to the 2nd Floor is usually "camouflaged" like this :<br />

The 2nd floor is quite cozy. It only has enough space to fit about 4 families... and the walls have an interesting print and texture. Very different from the restaurant space on the first floor.<br />

Since Mum just returned from her Korean trip, I asked her to recommend what is good. She quite excitedly ordered :<br />
1. Grilled Mackerel<br />
2. Korean Pancake (sister's request)<br />
3. Ginseng Chicken with Glutinous Rice (my request)<br />
4. Korean BBQ Pork Belly (mum's favourite)<br />

I was pleasantly surprised to find I enjoyed their Korean Appetizers. (I recall not really enjoying some other Korean Appetizers I was served in the past.)<br />

<h2>
Overall Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant Reviews :</h2>
I think I understand why Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant is so popular and has quite a few branches around Singapore. I'm not a huge fan of Korean Food, and I really enjoyed the Korean Pancake and Korean BBQ Pork Belly!!!<br />
<br />
The Ginseng Chicken with Glutinous Rice is not salty, which is a plus for me. But, I did not enjoy the grilled mackerel, which I found to be too fishy - I had to dip the fish into all the different sauces to mask the smell. In the end, I gave up on the grilled mackerel.<br />
<br />
Our bill came to less than $98, which is definitely not expensive for the large amount of food we had to eat.<br />
<br />
Oh, a tip for a couple visiting Auntie Kim's Korean Restaurant... the Korean Pancake is yummy... but really too big for 2 people I think !<br />
