Leave Your Dignity At The Door For A Unique Dining Experience At This Tsundere Cafe

Ah Japan, you never fail to impress us with your weird themed cafes. This one is no exception. For most eateries, you’d expect to be treated with exceptional service.

Not this one.

Pay a fee to be hurled with insults and rudely attended to by Japanese maids and butlers at Tsundere Cafe.

A Dish Best Served Cold

After a successful first run back in February, Tsundere Cafe will be back on June 9 at Luminos in Woodlands.

While it’s rather bizarre and uncommon in Singapore, customers have commented that they previously enjoyed the first pop-up.

The word ‘Tsundere’ is a Japanese term for a character development process that describes a person who is initially hostile before gradually showing a warmer side over time.

Customers can expect to be ignored and disrespectfully treated by the staff. They may look kawaii and demure but don’t be surprised if they slam trays on your table and throw menus at you.

If you need the staff to sayang you, pay an additional $2 for a “gacha” or special service such as feeding, massage, dekopin (forehead flick), games and polaroid photos.

Request for a particular service will cost you $5. Upon reaching your 10 gacha roll, expect a “deredere” treatment. Whatever that means.

Anyway, if you can’t deal with slow service and rudeness, don’t attempt to rebuke or scold the staff members. I mean, you literally pay to get abused, what are you expecting?

So if you really need someone to feed your masochistic side or you just want to check out what this whole cafe is about, then go ahead. Reserve a table before they run out of seats.

Think Out Of The Toastbox – Must-Try Kaya Toasts In Singapore You Will Love Regardless Of SES

Kaya toast is what I’d describe as the “strawberry jam with scones” of England. It’s a classic Singaporean breakfast that is best enjoyed with kopi gao and two soft-boiled eggs.

Skip your usual Ya Kun Kaya and Toast Box and go for the more traditional coffee shops that will not disappoint.

The Classic Singaporean Breakfast

1. Chin Mee Chin Confectionary

This place has been a long-running favourite among the locals. Located along East Coast Road, this nostalgic coffee shop is a nice change to modern joints.

Known for it’s decor typical of 1950s Singapore, with retro marble top tables, floor tiles, and ceiling fans. It’s also known for their traditional kaya toasts.

Instead of the kaya toast bread you’d typically see, their Kaya Toast is served in a hamburger-type bun and slathered with their homemade kaya and a slice of butter.

These buns are made in house and toasted till they are slightly burnt for that nice “char” taste. This place can get pretty busy so try and avoid peak hours if you’re looking at dining in.

Using only authentic recipes from the 50s and 60s, this colonial cafe lets you savour the taste of the past.

The kaya toast is generously slathered with their homemade kaya which is available for sale as well!

Here’s a tip, skip the teh and get their kopi. Be it Kopi-O, siew dai, gao or whatever, trust me. The auntie here knows how to make a legit cup of kopi.

They’ve since relocated a few units farther down Keong Saik Road.

If you prefer crispy thin bread, then you’ll love the kaya toast served at Tong Ah.

The kaya toast at this cafe looks like a masterpiece.

6. Coffee Break

Run by the third generation of kopi hawkers, they serve both traditional and modern fare to cater to the different generations.

Just look at that butter!

As much as I love the traditional kaya butter combination, Coffee Break serves up a couple of unique combination such as the Rum and Raisin which features a light and refreshing cream.

The Black Sesame combination is one of their best-sellers as well. The black sesame and butter combination goes surprisingly well together.

This Stall’s Affordable Halal Salmon Bowls Are The CBD Lunch Crowd’s Latest Craze

Finding halal Japanese food in a hawker centre is like finding a Snorlax in Pokemon Go. It’s rare.

Even if you do come across a halal Japanese stall, it’s either confused with Korean cuisine or just simply bland and dry.

What’s a girl got to do to get cheap and good Japanese food around here?

Fret not, Big Bowls Project is here to change our opinions of halal Japanese Bowls that doesn’t compromise on it’s flavours.

Big Bowls, Big Flavours

Big Bowls Project recently opened their store at Amoy Street Food Centre which is perfect for office workers around the CBD area. Best part, they’re 100% Muslim owned.

We all know how expensive poke bowls can amount to however, Big Bowls Project sells affordable food for the masses.

At the moment, Big Bowls Project has 4 Salmon Bowls available on their menu. These includes their Mentaiko Salmon ($8.90), Big Bowl’s Homemade Recipe ($7.90), Truffle Oil Salmon ($8.90) and Szechuan Black Bean Salmon ($7.90).

Their Mentaiko Salmon definitely got us drooling. At just $8.90, it’s such a great steal!

Their Homemade Recipe Bowl is perfect if you’re looking for a healthier option for lunch. The salmon is perfectly cooked and lightly seasoned with sesame seeds.

Why eat truffle fries when you can have truffle salmon? Am I right?

Finally, we have Big Bowl’s personal favourite – Szechuan Black Bean Salmon, Cherry Tomatoes, Japanese Cucumber on top of Jasmine Brown Rice. Just look at this beauty.

Despite being relatively new in the scene, they’re pretty much selling out on a daily basis. So you have to come real early if you’d like to try a bowl for yourself.

Best part, they’ve announced that they’ll be adding customisable poke bowls to their menu during the second-half of the year. Guess who’s excited!

Who knows they might just even expand and open more stalls. Keep your fingers crossed!

To the lovely owners over at Big Bowls Project, we hope you open 20 more stalls all over Singapore so we can all enjoy your halal salmon bowls!

The broth is light and beef slices are so tender, you can’t help but want to order another bowl.

This Aroi Mak Nasi Ambeng Swaps Rendang And Achar For Green Curry And Mango Salad

As a proud Malay millennial, I get extremely excited when I hear these two words: “nasi” and “ambeng”.

Nasi Ambeng (pronounced Nasi Um-Bng) is a classic Javanese dish that is usually shared between 3 to 4 people.

The dish consists of a mountain of rice in the middle of the platter, surrounded by other traditional Javanese dishes such as ayam masak lemak, fried tempeh, begedil, urap, sambal goreng and beef rendang (which is technically Minangkabau but let’s not get into that).

You’ll find plenty of restaurants serving this traditional dish. However, the version at Sticky Rice stands out from the rest with their Thai Style Nasi Ambeng.

Old Dish, New Flavours

The Rice Platter ($28.50), as the Nasi Ambeng dish is named at Sticky Rice, comes with a generous portion of fragrant steamed white rice, fried beef strips, mango salad, fish cakes, spring rolls, green curry chicken, stir-fried vegetables, and “son-in-law” eggs.

If you’re wondering what the “son-in-law” eggs are, you’re not the only one.

This egg dish is also known as Khai Luk Khoei. It’s basically hard boiled eggs that are deep fried so they have a crispy golden skin. It is served with a sweet-sour sauce – made from tamarind and fish sauce.

This Rice Platter also comes with a small bowl of Thai Green Curry, which in my dictionary, is the most essential dish in Thai cuisine. The green curry is mild and light which helps in balancing out the flavours of all the other dishes.

It also comes with a green mango salad which ties the entire dish together with it’s tangy and spicy flavour.

This platter is perfect shared among 2-3 people. If you’re feeling a little peckish, go alone. We dare you.

However, if you’re not looking for a heavy afternoon lunch, you can also opt for the Pad Thai Platter ($28.50) which basically replaces the rice with a mountain of chicken pad thai.

This platter comes with a side of omelette strips, crispy chicken skin, prawns, bean sprouts, peanuts, lime and chilli powder. All you have to do is mix everything together and enjoy!

If you’re not up for a huge feast, you can order individual dishes from their menu as well. Best part, they have vegan options for all you vegans out there. Now everyone can enjoy quality food together.

We highly recommend you to take a trip to Sticky Rice for a taste of Thailand here in Singapore. Aroi mak!

Singapore’s First Vegan Ice Cream Joint Takes The ‘Guilty’ Away From Pleasure

Singapore’s First Vegan Ice Cream Joint Takes The ‘Guilty’ Away From Pleasure

If you’re like me and you ate your entire body weight in steamboat and treats over the Chinese New Year break, it’s time to get back in shape!

But who says you can’t enjoy a little sweat treat every now and then.

Over at Brownice, they serve up one of the best vegan ice creams in Singapore and best part, it’s completely guilt-free!

You Can Have Your Ice Cream And Eat It Too

Being vegan or lactose-intolerant, you probably know how frustrating it is to be restricted from ice creams.

Fret not, Brownice serves vegan-friendly ice cream that uses brown rice as a substitute. Yes, you read that right. No dairy or eggs in this one!

If you’re expecting a rich gelato texture, unfortunately Brownice’s ice cream is less creamy and more icy (think of a cross between sorbet and ice cream).

While it is texturally lighter on the palate, it certainly does not lack flavour.

Looking for something light and refreshing for those hot sunny days? Their fruit based flavours such as the Sunny Strawberry Fields (from $3.50 per scoop) will be the choice to go for.

For creamier flavours, you should definitely try out their Black Sesame, Gila Gula Melaka and The Perfect Matcha.

Even better, treat yourself and go for the Waffle-licious Ice Cream ($8 with a scoop of ice cream).

Brownice prides in the fact that their ice cream contains less than 3% fat and boasts a calorie count of 80-140kcal per scoop. How’s that for your waistline?

Their outlet at East Coast Road serves a variety of Italian fare as well. Brownice is here to prove that Italian food can still be enjoyed if you’re vegan.

They serve one of the best vegan friendly pizzas ($14-$19) I’ve tried to date. You can barely taste the difference from your traditional Italian pizza.

The pastas ($10-$18) have great flavours too although most are tomato-based. Their Lasagna ($17), which features layers of diced eggplants and tofu in a thick and creamy tomato ragu sauce, is a crowd favourite!

Brownice has got our stamp of approval if you’re looking at vegan-friendly options. We’re surprised this place hasn’t opened all over Singapore yet.

Dear Brownice owners, if you’re reading this, please open 30 more branches all over Singapore. We’re more than happy to throw all our angbao money just for your ice cream!

Okay, so we cheated and threw in some Truffle Fries.

But these ones are made with Taro, and that makes all the difference.

House At Dempsey’s shoestring truffle taro fries are a power combination.

Unlike the the rest of its heavier counterparts, these fries are as light as air.

The taro fries are dipped generously in batter and fried to maximum crispiness.

Together with the fragrance of truffle oil, this becomes the ultimate snack for both truffle and taro lovers alike.
