#mysgmemories Mixue Singapore Address - 60 Paya Lebar Rd, #01-32 Paya Lebar Square, Singapore 409051 Ambiance/Facilities - easy to order, take away kiosk Highlights - cheap and good drinks/ice cream Avg. Price per Person - $5/pax Rating - 3.5 What's the current hype in Singapore or what is it that got everyone queueing for in Singapore now? Well, it's mixue Singapore! Mixue has opened its stores in Singapore and they are well known for their dancing mascots outside their shops, as well as drinks and ice cream that are extremely affordable! We tried their ice cream cone which was huge and it cost only $1! Wow, I was mind blown and it didn't taste bad, in fact the ice cream was creamy and milky and certainly yummy. Drinks wise, you can expect tons of different varieties of bubble tea. You will be so spoilt for choice. Price wise for drinks is about $2.50 for a huge cup of lemonade and ranges to about $3.50 for a huge cup of grape taro bubble tea. Nothing is above $5 on their menu. Now, you know where to cool off for the summer in Singapore. Delicious and cheap treats and drinks at Mixue is a bang for your buck!

#singaporetrip It's been a while since I last visited The Soup Spoon, but recently my colleague and I stumbled upon a lunch promotion and decided to give it a try. What I really appreciate about The Soup Spoon is their extensive selection of soups catering to different taste preferences. They also offer a variety of sides to complement your meal, so you don't have to worry about anyone in your group being left with nothing to eat. In addition to their delicious soups, The Soup Spoon Singapore offers a diverse menu that includes salads, sandwiches, and wraps for customers to choose from. Whether you prefer dining in, taking away, or even grabbing pre-made soup, they have options to suit your needs.

Free flow salad bar for all who orders a main at Keisuke charcoal grill & salad bar restaurant on basement one of Paya lebar shopping mall. What a great deal! For those whose other half love salads, then this a great place to bring your date! The salad bar was fresh with plenty of different kinds of vegetables, toppings and salad dressings, desserts like Japanese coffee jelly and fruits. Yummy! Keisuke charcoal grill restaurant also offers deliciously grilled fish like salmon, eel, mackerel and even teriyaki chicken. Each main comes with rice, miso soup and an onsen egg. Your bellies will be filled to the brim and you will be happily enjoying the food there as it is so good! I had their teriyaki chicken and it was charred nicely, their grilled mackerel was also on point and the fish meat was soft and fresh. The salad bar was a great bonus for myself and my date. Head over to Keisuke charcoal grill & salad bar for an amazing meal with your loved ones today! #valentinescape

Address - 10 Paya Lebar Rd, #03-30, Singapore 409057 Ambiance/Facilities - Facilities are all in the mall Highlights - Thick flavourful broth Avg. Price per Person - $20 Rating - 4/5 Definitely not the best ramen i’ve had in my life but for a ramen restaurant chain, i think this is pretty decent. The best part of the ramen for me is the chewy-ness of the noodles and it’s ability to hold onto the broth as you slurp it. It helps that the broth is so thick and creamy too. #valentinescape #foodie #tripblazers

Charcoal-grill & Salad Bar Keisuke👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Address - Paya Lebar Square #b1-16, Singapore 409051. (Paya Lebar MRT station) I had visited this Japanese restaurant several times, love it! They had made a lot of efforts for their dish serving, with nice and elegant platings.😘👍🏻✨ The most I enjoyed is their salad bar😋✨✨a free-flow salad bar with more than 25 types of Japanese osousai (side dishes) and vegetables to choose from.⭐️⭐️⭐️ They served charcoal-grilled main dishes, which is served in an authentic set meal style, which consists of miso soup, onsen egg and they’re serving cooked rice in a small wooden iron pot - unique!👍🏻⭐️✨ #anna29diary #tripmoments #mytripvlog

Address - 01-129/130, SingPost Centre, 10 Eunos Rd 8, Singapore 408600 Ambiance/Facilities - Casual and cozy cafe One highlight at this place is their XXL drinks that will last you the whole day! Value for money and you can also grab egg tarts, curry puffs and muffins! A great place for a cheap tea time! Also, now with CNY around the corner, don’t forget to check their cookies and goodies! Avg. Price per Person - $3-$5 Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #tripblazers

Fancy having a buffet without feeling overstuffed after? Love your veggies? This is the place for you! At Charcoal Grill & Salad Bar Keisuke, with every main course ordered, you’ll have access to a glorious free flow salad bar. The options are varied with many raw vegetables, cooked vegetables, pickles, noodles, fruits and even dessert. My usual order is the grilled dried atka mackerel and the standard has been consistent every single time I’m there. The fish is crispy on the outside, soft and moist in the inside. The fish bones get so well charred that I could even eat them. The set comes with individually cooked rice in metal pots, miso soup and an onsen egg. Tip: mix the onsen egg together with the rice. It’s so delicious when done that way. The highlight of the meal is always the salad bar as they have my favourite mentaiko pasta and coffee jelly with cream. I could easily eat bowls of that stuff. Bonus part? The mains here are affordable and you really get the best value for money dining here.

You can find YM Bakery is a cosy little shop tucked in a corner of PLQ Mall’s basement. They sell a huge variety of tarts and a small selection of savoury pies. So there’s definitely a flavour for everyone. I got the orange pistachio tart which was topped with orange slices. The tart was not too sweet with a nice fragrance from the orange with a generous pistachio base. Also got a pecan tart which was slightly sweeter with a very yummy tart base. Would love to try more of their tarts in the future. The auntie at the store is very friendly and gave good recommendations. There are two tables at the store if you’ll like to have the tarts there. Definitely a place to come back!

Always having a queue during the evenings, this eatery seems to have a few branches though the lobster branch at Clarke quay had closed down few years ago. We had the black spicy ramen with egg (normal noodles, less oil and salt) and a soft ramen plus extra noodles (less oil and salt too), totalling $36+ for 2 adults and a toddler (whom had a fun time peeling and feasting on the free eggs) Warm water is also not chargeable and can be ordered through the QR code as well as payment. #urbanexplorer #foodie

Address - Wee Nam Kee Chicken Rice, Paya Lebar Square, B1-125 Highlights - Succulent chicken and fragrant rice as always from Wee Nam Kee. The taste has always been up to standards, and the chain has always ensured quality of ingredients are great! The prawn ball however wasn’t as expected. Prawn was very little and more of other minced meat/paste were added. A tad pricey too for 6 pieces at $10. Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Address - 60 Paya Lebar Road, #01-57 Paya Lebar Square, (409051) Ambience - open concept casual dining Average Price - 💰💰 Rating - 🍛🍛🍛🍛 Opening hours - 11:00 - 22:00 daily with an afternoon break on weekdays Monster Planet is the halal spin-off of the popular Japanese curry brand Monster Curry. The concept of serving Japanese curry rice with chosen meats in very big serving plates really catches everyone’s attention. We ordered the signature Monster Combo Curry which comprises of Chicken Katsu, Beef Shabu-Shabu, Shrimp Tempura, Fried Fish and Cheese. It is so huge. While they state that the size serves 2 paxs but probably for 2 teenage growing boys. We 3 ladies couldn’t even finish without try to stuff ourselves till 101% full. It’s really super value for money. While they are quite full house, the service from the staff is still very attentive. We enjoyed the dining experience. They have 5 other outlets at Causeway Point, The Centrepoint, JEM, Jewel Changi Airport and Collyer Quay Centre. #sginsider #foodie #restaurant #japanesefood #halal #payalebar

Where - Ji De Chi Dessert Address - #01-56 Paya Lebar Square (beside Paya Lebar MRT) Highlights - Asian Desserts Price - mid-priced Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ji De Chi Dessert offers Asian/local chilled and hot desserts. They have 10 outlets across the island and more is in the plan, according to their website. The shop was almost filled and you can see it attracts both older customers for the traditional Chinese desserts and the younger ones for the chilled/iced desserts. We ordered the mango sticky rice with black glutinous rice and taro paste. And the more traditional one of almond paste with glutinous rice. The mango version is just average in my opinion. They tried to include too much variety into a single dessert. Value for money perhaps but just too much texture. The traditional almond paste is really good. Very smooth with the right consistency without feeling the “sandy” after taste. Very fragrant and not too sweet. Looking forward to try their other traditional paste dessert like sesame paste and walnut paste which is known to be good for our general wellness. #musteat #dessert #payalebar #cafe

Address - #01-51 Paya Lebar Square (beside Paya Lebar MRT) Highlights - Soymilk bubble tea with Mochi balls Price (signature drinks) - $6.20 Rating - 🥤🥤🥤🥤🥤 Always see long queues at the outlet and hence didn’t get to try it until now. The long queue no longer forms at Paya Lebar Square (first outlet in Singapore) when the other 3 newer outlets at VivoCity, Chinatown Point and 313@Somerset came. Hence I jumped at the opportunity to try the raved signature drink, Original Soy Milk Tea with White Jade Balls. The special here is they use the traditional way of stone grinding the good quality soybeans to generate the soy milk. The signature drink comes with soy foam and mocha balls which is very fluffy and chewy. Soybean powder is also generously sprinkled on top. There’s also tofu in the drink giving another texture to the whole presentation. The whole experience is really lifted with the various layering (有层次感). Really love the drink. We chose 50% sugar level which brings out the soybean fragrance. Will hope to try the others like Black Sesame and Matcha versions next. #musteat #bubbletea #tofu #payalebar #musteat

Most Thai Milk Tea stores in Singapore, you will see their milk tea dispenser is plastered with the stick with the branding of ChaTraMue, because it has made itself so iconic that everyone wants to be under the ChaTraMue logo for their Milk tea. ChaTraMue specialises in manufacturing quality Thai Tea that has its unique aroma and taste that you can buy regardless if you are having it ready to drink or just getting the tea leaves alone. Having its flagship on level one of Paya Lebar Quarters, this cafe serves up aromatic thai style coffee and tea, there is also mains available where you can enjoy thai food alfresco style just outside of the store for that authentic style of dining in Thailand.

Address - 60 Paya Lebar Rd, #01-51 Paya Lebar Square, Singapore 409051 Highlights - Soy milk tea topped with soy foam and mochi balls Price per drink - range from $3 to $6 Singapore is a bubble tea heaven with many different brands offering various flavours. Chinese Tofu Magician stands out with its menu based on soy milk. They make their soy milk in house using ancient stone-grinding techniques. We ordered the matcha one which is a new flavour. Love the rich matcha taste combined with soy milk and the texture of the chewy mochi ball. Other than the outlet at Paya Lebar, there are another three more outlets around Singapore. Will try out other flavours soon! #matcha

#moreinsg Address - 60 Paya Lebar Road, Paya Lebar Square, #b1-16, Singapore 409051 Ambiance/Facilities - Small & cosy Highlights - Free flow salad bar with any Charcoal Grill Set Avg. Price per Person - $20 Rating - 4 out of 5 Overall nice lunch at Charcoal-Grill & Salad Bar Keisuke, with free flow salad, side dishes & fruits/coffee jelly. One of the 2 Keisuke outlets with the salad bar; the other being Teppanyaki Hamburg Nihonbashi Keisuke Bettei at Tanjong Pagar. As per the shop name, the menu mainly serve Charcoal-grilled traditional fish dishes + chicken. We ordered a charcoal-grilled mackerel & salmon, & the chef will start to cook once ordered. Meanwhile, they will serve some salad, onsen egg & some Japanese side dishes where you can eat while waiting for the main dishes. You are also able to customize your order of salad if you want more. I love the way they serve the rice in a small iron pot of which it keeps the rice hot & fluffy. They served the fish with small sides of potato, radish & cheese too, & also come with miso soup as well. Both the fish dishes are of nice reasonable sizes. Lastly, after finishing all the main & sides, it's time for fruits (watermelon & orange) & coffee jelly. Free flow as well too. Very full after finishing the meal ☺️ The restaurant is also very popular as we saw a constant queue of customers outside throughout our visit. Do come earlier if you visit.

#summervacay The Experience - How It Works: Select Your Ingredients: The highlight of Old Chengdu Malatang is the sheer variety and the freedom to customize. Diners are typically presented with a vast display of fresh ingredients, often chilled. This includes: Proteins: Thinly sliced meats (beef, pork, lamb), various types of meatballs, sausages, luncheon meat, crab sticks, fish cakes, prawns, squid, tofu, and different kinds of mushrooms. Vegetables: A wide array of leafy greens (cabbage, bok choy, spinach), root vegetables (potato slices, lotus root), corn, carrots, and more. Noodles & Grains: A diverse selection of noodles ranging from instant noodles, glass noodles, sweet potato noodles, to fresh hand-pulled noodles (if available), and sometimes even rice cakes. Weigh & Pay: Once you've filled your basket with your chosen ingredients, it's weighed, and you pay based on the total weight. This pay-by-weight model encourages adventurous selection. Choose Your Broth & Spice Level: This is where the magic happens. You'll specify your preferred broth base (e.g., clear, mushroom, pork bone, or the classic mala broth) and, crucially, your desired spice level. Options usually range from non-spicy to mild, medium, spicy, and even extra-spicy for the truly daring. The "mala" (numbing and spicy) sensation is key to the experience.

#newyearnewtrip One of the great things about Singapore is its incredible diversity of food, catering to all tastes and cravings. Today, I’d like to share one of my favorites—Japanese ramen. When it comes to ramen, Keisuke Ramen is one of my go-to spots. If you’ve been there before, you’re probably familiar with their signature offerings: the free-flow hard-boiled eggs and their deliciously seasoned beansprouts, which make the dining experience even more enjoyable. Whether you’re a ramen enthusiast or just curious to try something new, Keisuke Ramen is definitely worth a visit.

#meetsingapore I went to buy dinner at Paya Lebar Square when I came across this Chinese store called Qin Ji Rougamo. Qin Ji Rougamo sells food from Shan Xi and Si Chuan. Knowing my wife loves cold noodles skin, I went to order takeaway for her. I also ordered their signature snack - Qinji Pork Rougamo. Thus, I brought back the food home and eat it together with my wife. We really loved the food. The Qinji pork Rougamo and the cold noodles skin were really very delicious. I would love to come back to try other food. Address: Paya Lebar Rd, B1-08 Paya Lebar Square, Singapore 409051 Opening hours: 1100 to 2130

#mustvisit - HALAL Sichuan Food in Singapore Address - Paya Lebar Square, 60 Paya Lebar Rd, Unit 01-77/80 Paya Lebar Square, Singapore 409051 Operating Hours - 10:30AM to 09:30PM Monday - Sunday (Daily) Ambiance/Facilities - HALAL Certified eatery, airconditioned seating Highlights - Sichuan cuisine and more Avg. Price per Person - From $10.00 up Rating - 4 / 5 Paya Lebar Feature Series - 2 This HALAL Sichuan eatery is located just beside Jco Donuts at Paya Lebar Square and you can easily spot it when you exit from Paya Lebar MRT main entrance. The entrance facing the MRT is closed though so you need to enter via the mall. Delibowl Ricebowl offers authentic Sichuan cuisine in a unique cosy eatery setting. Check out their signatures which include Stir-Fried Mapo Tofu in Hot Sauce, Sichuan Style Fried Eggplant etc. Non spicy dishes are actually available so fret not if you aren't a fan of spicy food. Now ordering is quite easy via the Self Ordering Menu Panel at the kiosk at the entrance, mall side. You have the option of going ala carte with rice or take on a set meal which comes with a side dish, and soup or drink. Try their homemade drinks like milk tea, lemon tea and even barley etc, served in a pouch. For my visit today, I ordered the Stire-Fried Tofu in Hot Sauce which is actually a very classic Mapo Tofu set with silken tofu cubes, minced chicken, fermented beans, soya beans and Sichuan peppercorns. My side was a spicy tofu noodle salad which is favourite cold dish of mine also (I always will order this when I visit other Chinese eateries especially like those serving Dong Bei North Eastern cuisine). Instead of soup, I opted for a can of coke and they gave me in ice in their signature pouch too. Overall, a true blue, savoury Sichuan favourite that goes down well with rice lol. Always my favourite to go / MustVisit eatery when I have cravings for Sichuan food lol. As the taste is very near to authentic Sichuan cuisine from the mainland, I definitely recommend this as a MustVisit place to go to if you haven't tried any Sichuan cuisine before and you are lover of spicy Chinese food with fermented beans and Sichuan peppercorns unique to the Sichuan region. There’s plenty of seating space available as they occupy 2 units. Do pop by ! #sichuanfood #sgfoodie #rediscoversg

半仙豆夫 Chinese Tofu Magician SG Address - 60 Paya Lebar Rd, #01-51 Paya Lebar Square, Singapore 409051 Highlights - soya bean based drink Avg. Price per Person - $6 Rating - 3.5/5 It's like bubble tea but instead of using the usual milk based, this tastes special as it is soya bean based. The 'tofu' is actually thick beancrubs inside the drinks if you. choose their signature drinks. Their highlight for the signature drinks is actually the mocha balls that you are supposed to dip inside the drink as the top layer have a very thick cream cheese and you eat it after dipping since the mochi is tasteless. Recently they have a new item- matcha flavour! Just try it today and it tastes good too! #moreinsg #singapore
