‘Udon’ Know Good Udon Until You’ve Tried Inaniwa Yosuke

I don’t think that there are official ‘sides’ to the Udon VS. Ramen argument. If it is even an argument in the first place. But if I had to pick sides, I’m a Ramen fan.
There’s just something about thin yellow noodles that seems so much more appealing than the thick strand of udon. Udon just seems so…much.
Looking at Udon makes me feel like it’s going to be jelak before I even order.
So this weekend, I did something (relatively) brave. My Udon-loving friend found a particular Udon restaurant in Wisma Atria and she wanted to try it.
So off we went on a lazy Sunday afternoon for Udon.
A Hidden Gem
Hidden in plain sight on Level 4 of Wisma Atria, next to FoodRepublic, is the Japan Food Town. If you think this is another “Shokutsu Ten” at Nex or Jurong Point, you’re wrong.
The restaurants here are next level. Deep within the Japan Food Town was our destination, Inaniwa Yosuke.
[caption id="attachment_34217" align="aligncenter" width="1280"]
The restaurant looked unassuming. Like a run-of-the-mill Japanese restaurant with limited seating and fancy-ish decor.
I went in with a sense of trepidation because I’m a person of habit and tend to stick to what’s familiar and good. I’m really not an udon person.
I ordered the Beef Udon ($16.80) because that was the most familiar flavour besides the Carbonara Udon that was sadly, out of stock. My friend ordered the Wagyu Steak Don Set ($24.80) as well as the Agedashi Tofu ($6.80) and Salmon Sashimi ($10.80) to share.
The first dish to arrive was the Agedashi Tofu. Four large pieces of perfectly tempura fried tofu sitting in a light soy sauce.
This was a delight to eat. The biggest gripe I have with Agedashi Tofu is that their batter becomes soggy very quickly but this one was soft yet crispy with its delicate batter and the soy sauce was not too salty. Basically, AMAZING.
Next was the Salmon Sashimi and each piece was fresh and sliced thick.
[caption id="attachment_34231" align="aligncenter" width="700"]


Not that it’s a bad thing, but the broth was definitely better than I expected. Next, the udon noodles.
The udon noodles here are thinner than the usual thick variety that we’re all familiar with. The restaurant uses Inaniwa-style udon noodles which are thinner and smoother and is handmade every step of the way.
[caption id="attachment_34232" align="aligncenter" width="700"] Image Credit: here.
I’m definitely going back for more and I recommend that you give it a shot.

These Steamboat Spots In S’pore Confirm Will Make You Steaaammm

Hai Di Lao is arguably the most popular steamboat spot in Singapore. They’ve been drawing crowds with their insanely good tomato broths and noodle-bending staff.
However, while Hai Di Lao is great, I refuse to wait over an hour just for a table. Especially when I’m hungry. Here’s a list of great alternatives to satisfy that steamboat craving.
1. JPOT
JPOT only offers individual hotpots, which is great because I’m picky when it comes to the ingredients that goes into my hotpot.
They offer a wide variety of ingredients and 9 different soup bases. My personal favourites are the Tom Yum Soup and the JPOT Superior Broth.
[caption id="attachment_34036" align="aligncenter" width="720"]
The other unique soup bases include the Laksa, Chilli Crab Soup, Bak Kut Teh Soup, Fish Head Soup and Porridge. Yes, that’s right. You can choose to cook your ingredients in a pot of porridge.
[caption id="attachment_34035" align="aligncenter" width="1080"]
You have to order their Wagyu Ribeye, Handmade Jumbo Pork Ball, and their Handmade Fish Balls. The marbling on the Wagyu Ribeye is perfect and is so tender it barely holds its form on my chopsticks.
The Handmade Fish Balls come in a platter of 6 and are different from the conventional fishballs. The fishballs are made fresh and you can actually taste the fish instead of just a generic fish paste. One platter is never enough.
You can view their complete menu here.
That’s not all, with 16 sauces and condiments available, you can create your own dips for your hotpot experience.
JPOT is the place to go if you’re looking for a genuinely good and fuss-free steamboat meal.

2. Shi Li Fang
Shi Li Fang is one of the few affordable steamboat places in Singapore.

They have a good variety of broths available. Choose from their Tonic Chicken Soup, Specialty Mala Soup, Beauty Chicken Collagen Soup, Nourishing Fish Soup, Ravishing Tomato Soup, and Tasty Mushroom Soup.
Their Specialty Mala Soup is actually milder and drinkable, unlike Hai Di Lao’s intense Mala broth.
Be sure to order their Japanese Kurobuta Pork, Japanese Wagyu Beef, and their Fish Roe ‘Glue’. The quality of the meat is surprisingly decent and the Fish Roe ‘Glue’ is a paste that has been incorporated generously with Fish Roe.
[caption id="attachment_34037" align="aligncenter" width="669"]

3. Beauty In The Pot
Beauty In The Pot is a hotpot concept that offers 2 signature broths – the Beauty Collagen Broth and Spicy Nourishing Soup.
The Beauty Collagen Broth is essentially Shark’s Cartilage Soup while the Spicy Nourishing Soup is a Pork Bone Soup with 3 levels of spiciness available.
[caption id="attachment_34041" align="aligncenter" width="1080"]
If you’re at the newer OneKM outlet, they offer 4 more broths besides the signature 2.

While we all enjoy Ben & Jerry’s or Cold Stone Creamery, sometimes we just want a simple ice cream sandwich from the humble ice cream uncle. You remember him with his scooter, offering some of your favourite ice cream flavours such as Peppermint Chocolate Chip, Mango, and Raspberry Ripple, sandwiched between your choice of wafer or that magical rainbow bread that we all thought has its own flavour. However, it doesn’t matter whether you prefer wafer or rainbow bread because we all love free ice cream. Free cone day might be over but don’t fret. Klook has partnered with F&N Creameries and will be offering FREE ice cream sandwiches on their booking platform for customers to redeem from selected ice cream uncles along Orchard Road from 20 to 22 April 2018, between 2pm and 6pm. This collaboration is an initiative to help our friendly ice cream uncles go digital and convert into cashless payment. Here’s how the redemption works. Firstly, download the Klook app. Secondly, select an ice cream sandwich and add it to your cart on Klook. Next, apply the promo code ‘HELLOUNCLE‘ and check out. Lastly, take the voucher to your selected ice cream uncle to redeem your free ice cream sandwich! In case you got lost somewhere, here’s a how-to video. You will be able to choose your flavours during the redemption of the ice cream sandwich. However, do note that the redemption is limited to 300 ice cream sandwiches per uncle, each day. Because Orchard Road is a long stretch, here are the exact locations of each ice cream uncle. Uncle Tan: Uncle Chan: Uncle Ang: Don’t miss out on this opportunity for a FREE ice cream sandwich treat!

Lok No Further, Here Are The Best Lok Lok Spots In Singapore So You Don’t Have To Travel To JB

I’ll always remember the first time I ate Lok Lok out of a converted van in JB. Although it was a tad unhygienic, it was a truly fun and unique dining experience.
Lok Lok is a dish consisting of various deep-fried foods such as meats and vegetables that are served on a skewer and traditionally dipped into thick satay sauce.
Lok Lok is EXTREMELY underrated in Singapore. If you haven’t tried it, honestly why?
So here it is. Here’s a list of Lok Lok spots you can enjoy in Singapore so you don’t have to travel all the way to JB.
Up All Night To Get Lok-y
1. Zaolek Lok Lok
This Lok Lok buffet offers up to 60 different types of skewers, cooking methods – boiled, deep fried, bbq as well as a huge variety of sauces for you to combine and make it your own.
Best part, this Lok Lok will only cost you $24 nett/pax from Tuesdays to Thursdays and $27 nett/pax from Fridays to Sundays for all you can eat!

This next one is a little bit out of the way but definitely worth the trip.
This old school Lok Lok dining experience is a passed-down 25-year Singapore family-kept recipe extracted from Satay Bee Hoon.
There’re three soup bases for you to choose from (chicken/mala/satay) but we highly recommend the satay base. Each base pot will cost you $8.
Best part, each stick goes as low as $1 so you know you’ll be leaving this place with a food coma.

Tasty Street ‘Spoils Market’ With Wagyu Beef, Iberico Pork Rice Bowls Under $7

We’ve seen many stalls selling ricebowls. From poké bowls to fancy Japanese donburi, we’ve seen it all.
Now, a new player steps into the ring. Meet Tasty Street.
[caption id="attachment_33772" align="aligncenter" width="1280"]
Tasty Street was started by 3 friends who met during their Polytechnic days, using modern cooking techniques to combine local flavours and premium ingredients into a grain bowl.
Premium Ingredients, Affordable Prices
Each grain bowl comes with a protein of your choice with a paired homemade sauce, brown and pearl rice base, vegetable of the day, a sour or spicy side of the day, charred sweet corn, and a beautifully poached onsen egg.
Their bestsellers are the Wagyu Beef Bowl, Iberico Lor Bah Bowl, and the Sous Vide Chicken Breast Bowl with Truffled Hotplate Tofu Sauce.
[caption id="attachment_33776" align="aligncenter" width="1280"]
The Sous Vide Chicken Breast Bowl with Truffled Hotplate Tofu Sauce ($6.50) comes with their signature Truffled Hotplate Tofu Sauce, which still retains a strong taste of the hot bean paste used as the base for the sauce.
[caption id="attachment_33773" align="aligncenter" width="1280"]

The chicken breast wasn’t dry (thankfully) and retained its moisture because of the Sous Vide cooking method. It was a little gamey, as all poached chicken do.
However, the truffled hotplate tofu sauce does its job well, masking most of the gamey taste of the chicken breast.
The Wagyu Beef Bowl ($6.50) uses premium Australian Wagyu beef, grilled and served with Asian black pepper sauce.
This is a crowd favourite and sells out fast.
[caption id="attachment_33771" align="aligncenter" width="1280"]

The wagyu beef was perfectly grilled to medium rare doneness and was still pink in the centre. If you’re like me and prefer meat to be cooked through, then you’re the exception rather than the norm.
Finally, the Iberico Lor Bah Bowl ($6.50).
[caption id="attachment_33774" align="aligncenter" width="1280"]


Premium Iberico pork is slow-braised for 48 hours to create this sinful dish. The resulting braising liquid better known as Lor, is sweet with a tinge of bitterness that doesn’t overshadow the Iberico pork and isn’t jelak either.
The Iberico pork lives up to its name with a perfect balance of fat to lean meat ratio and is so tender that it barely holds its shape when held with chopsticks.
While the stars of the rice bowls are the proteins, the sides are not neglected either. The vegetables and sides are rotated daily and they serve to complement the proteins, so the rice bowls don’t end up becoming jelak.
The charred sweet corn is a mainstay in the rice bowls and are so good that customers have ordered just the corn alone. Yes, you can do that for just $1.
Their Buona Vista outlet only offers these 3 bestsellers.
The outlet at Pasir Ris Central Hawker Centre has a more extensive menu, with a vegetarian Deep Fried Tofu Bowl ($5.50) and 2 seafood options in the Griddled Prawn Bowl ($6.50) that comes in 2 types of sauces.
It’s hard to find a hawker that offers rice bowls made with premium ingredients, and at the price that Tasty Street offers, no less.
While Pasir Ris Central Hawker Centre might be at the opposite end of the island for me, I would gladly head back to Tasty Street just for another taste of their addictive rice bowls.
I cannot wait to see what other creations they might come up with in future.

It’s Not Durian Season Yet, But You Can Get Mao Shan Wang For Just $12 This Week

My eyes will always light up at the sight of durians all lined up along Geylang or Sims Avenue.
I never quite understood why people hated the smell or taste of durians. It’s soft, creamy, sweet and savoury. Like what more do you want in a fruit?
[caption id="attachment_33660" align="aligncenter" width="480"]
Durian is all the rage these days and guess who’s excited for $12 Mao Shan Wangs?
The King Of Fruits
If you haven’t already noticed, the weather has been ridiculously hot recently. The short walk from the MRT to the office has got me drenched in my sweat.
Thanks to the hot weather in Malaysia leading to a bumper crop, durian prices have dropped by up to 40%. That’s almost half the cost of the durian!
This is probably the only time I’m thankful for hot weather.
[caption id="attachment_33663" align="aligncenter" width="480"]
Durian lovers would typically wait for durian season which is usually from June – September. That’s when we’d feast on endless supply of durians.
So having an unexpected mini durian season in the middle of March is great for us who are impatient.
Durian sellers have taken their durians to Facebook so you can compare prices.

I mean seriously, $15/kg for MSW? That’s crazy cheap. Just last month, it’d cost you at least $25-$28/kg.
https://www.facebook.com/717trading/photos/a.10150247669982235.358922.127701537234/10156320506447235/?type=3
So beautiful. Just beautiful.

That’s it, I’m packing my bags. I’m off to get durians.
Some sellers say that prices might go even lower over the next couple of days however there are others who believe that prices could return to normal next week.
Honestly, with that kind of price tag, I’ll buy 5 MSW. Durian prices are always unpredictable so snag yourself a durian before it’s too late.
Some durian sellers are already selling out of MSW, so hurry and make reservations for your durians.
But in all honesty, as much as I love durians, is the weather going to chill anytime soon?

All Subway Singapore Outlets To Stop Selling Pork From Today Onwards

Subway Singapore has announced on their Facebook page that they will no longer be serving pork products in all outlets from today onwards.
https://www.facebook.com/SubwaySingapore/posts/10155927711210935
Say Goodbye To Pork
“No pork, doesn’t mean other meat are halal already what?”
I know, I know, but this also means we’re one step closer to easing everyone into the idea of a Halal Subway!
This topic has been a hit among Singaporeans as we debate endlessly in the comments section whether “To halal or not to halal?”
Just take a look at the comments.
[caption id="attachment_33667" align="aligncenter" width="978"]
[caption id="attachment_33669" align="aligncenter" width="988"]

Oh, this one’s my favourite.
[caption id="attachment_33670" align="aligncenter" width="998"]
Someone please, just save this poor person and give her the Italian BMT already! I almost feel bad for her potential breakup with the sandwich.
Since end of January, Subway has been in talks with MUIS regarding the halal certification process. Everyone found out, threw a fit and acted as if the world was about to end.
Subway didn’t care anyway and almost 60 outlets have stopped selling pork products since 31 January. If you didn’t already know, you can see the list here.
I get it. I’m so sorry for the loss of your pork. But please, please, give us Muslims a chance to enjoy Subway. I’m so tired of travelling all the way to JB just for a goddamn sandwich.
[caption id="attachment_33673" align="aligncenter" width="400"]
I understand that it may seem unfair to take the pork out of Subway for all the hardcore fans but let’s all calm down and wait for Subway’s explanation.
Subway may lose a couple of patrons because they no longer want to sell pork, but I’m pretty sure the rest of the non-pork eating community are more than happy to still patronise Subway.
