Famous South Korean Chinese Noodle chain specialising in handmade Jjamppong and Jajangmyeon with their signature Tangsuyuk, is now finally in Singapore!

We know that we are a bit late to the trend, but we just wanted to make sure we weren't queuing for more than 2 hours. However, to our surprise, the queue was still extremely long during the weekend, and we waited at least 30-45 minutes to get a seat.

Here’s what we ordered:

Tang Suyuk: 8/10 ($21)

✅ Deep-fried pork with sweet and sour sauce

✅ This is one of the best Tang Suyuk we've had in Singapore, with very juicy pork that blends perfectly with the sweet and sour sauce

✅ It is not as oily as we expected, which is good!

Jajang Myeon: 7/10 ($14)

✅ Now we know why their Jajang Myeon is so popular!

✅ Noodles are perfectly cooked and coated with the right amount of sauce!

Bokkeum Jjamppong: 6/10 ($17)

✅ Dry Korean Seafood noodle with a hint of spice

✅ The taste is something we have never experienced before

✅ Would prefer having a soup base instead.

Overall, we would definitely go back for their Tang Suyuk and Jajang Myeon!

Iconic Canadian coffeehouse Tim Hortons has finally opened its first Singapore outlet at VivoCity. Located on the first floor, you can’t miss it.

Having heard of it on social media, I was happy that I was invited to have a first taste of their famous double-doubles, ice capps and Timbits.

Price-point wise, I feel Tim Hortons is a little bit more affordable than its current coffeehouse competitors and the black coffee is a lot more drinkable as well so that’s a plus point for me and I would totally go back.

Anyway, without further ado, here’s what you can expect from the menu:

– – – –

First up the coffee. I had tried all 4 of their blends:

☕️: Original Blend

Medium roast, light-to-medium body, and well-balanced between citrus fruity and nuts and chcolate.

☕️: Single Origin

A medium roast, medium body, quite naturally sweet, but with a bright acidity. Get this if you like lighter acidic coffees.

☕️: Dark Roast

A long roast, rich body, with strong flavours. Earthier, with more intense notes of chocolate, cedar, caramel. This one’s a lot more bitter than the first two

☕️: Espresso Blend

The longest and slowest roast of the 4, with a rich, intense bitter flavour. Intense, yet smooth, this was my favourite.

– – – –

Next up, I tried their speciality coffees. In all honesty, as nice as they were, I found them all way too sweet. Definitely ask for reduced sugar. Also I would do without whipped cream – it is the sort from a can, rather than made with fresh cream.

Iced Capps (from $6.50)

☕️: Salted Caramel

Sadly I could barely taste the coffee, with all the sugar and caramel, but if you have a sweet tooth, definitely go for this!

☕️: Belgian Chocolate

The non-coffee version, I really like the flavour of this. Its chocolate, what’s not to love?

Lattes (from $7 I think, I forgot 😅)

☕️: Maple Cinnamon

I absolutely dig this; its sweet, with a mild kick of spice and when served warm, it hits the spot.

☕️: Iced Roasted Hazelnut

This one felt like a coffee Nutella. A little too sweet, but its good.

– – – –

Now on to food! After all the coffee I was feeling quite buzzed from the caffeine and sugar so it was nice to have something savoury to eat too.

Melts

🥪: Triple Cheese & Caramelised Onion ($8.90)

You HAVE to get this. It was served piping hot, and I could do a cheese pull and the flavours were perfect. Cheesy, and with the sweetness from the onions, all wrapped in toasty bread, it’s just that good.

🥪: Pesto Chicken & Mozzarella ($9.90)

With the chicken, this was a bit more substantial. And the flavours all went together; the pesto sauce, chicken and cheese.

Sweets:

🍩: Donuts ($2.90-$4.50 for 1 OR $20 for the 6 pack)

I was served the 6-pack assorted donuts, with one of each flavour: maple glaze, classic glaze, Belgian dark chocolate, strawberry Belgian white chocolate, Boston cream and yuzu cream.

I quite like the maple glaze; just something really simple. The Belgian dark chocolate was the runner up; I really like chocolate to be honest!

🍩: Timbits ($1-$1.50 for 1 OR $10 for the 10 pack)

These iconic fried dough balls come in 4 flavours: classic glaze, cinnamon sugar, yuzu and birthday (glaze + sprinkles). Honestly the OG glaze was the best out of the 4. And these are addictive!

Tim Hortons will open on the 17th of Nov, with their first outlet at VivoCity and they do have plans to open another up north in NEX at Serangoon.

Ungatekeeping another gem you should go when you are in Seminyak, Bali;

🥙Shishi Nightclub & Izakaya Lounge

📍Seminyak Bali

⭐️ 8/10

Yes you heard it right; all you can eat (for 2 hours) for around SGD22/pax NETT??

The concept here is “fine dining” so as you can see from the portions they serve it in small plates. They serve all kinds of food from western to Japanese! You can only order 3 dishes at a time- and you need to finish it until you order the next 3! tbh didn’t even use up the full 2 hours cause we were so full before that.

They also offer an all you can drink for the same price (SGD 22) but we didn’t opt for that as we are not that fond of alcohol.

Definitely a must visit if you drop by to Seminyak! Remember to RESERVE at their website cause seats run out fast!!

aft trying 7 banh mi stores i've decided this is one of the top. store offers so many variations. baguette is so CRISPY. meat is absurdly generous and flavourful- meat juices were flowing everywhr and they did not waste any space in the bread. got grilled pork n beef in lolot- halfway GOT full. defo more $ than average banh mi but miss saigon indeed. see my banh mi missions 1-4 😘

Naengmyeon that will blow away your heat 🔥 You should eat pork with Naengmuyeon as well! The taste becomes richer and your enjoyment doubles🤩
