Wagyu X is a Japanese restaurant nestled along Club Street (at No. 82).  It is fairly inconspicuous but keep a lookout for the wooden signboard and white doors.  Don’t be fooled by the smaller seating on the first floor, they have seats on the second storey and is a fairly intimate space.  Wagyu X prides itself in serving up a special Hokkiado wagyu crossbreed that is not commonly found outside Japan.  Bred from the crossing of Kuroge black Wagyu cow and the Aberdeen Angus bull, the beef has a distinctive marbling and a balanced meaty flavour.  Fun fact: the X in Wagyu ..read more

We recently dropped by Butcher’s Block at Raffles Hotel to check out their refreshed Spring Menu and we learned about the restaurant’s focus on food sustainability – which adds another reason to return.  As March and April comes around and the weather gets warmer (in some parts of the world), Butcher’s Block changes up its menu to feature spring ingredients.  Every meal at Butcher’s Block begins with complimentary Hokkaido milk parker roll served with konbu seaweed butter, dusted with furikake.  I look forward to this bread each time I visit.  This time, the bread shrank in ..read more

Recently opened at Kallang Leisure Park, Song Yue Taiwan Cuisine serves up familiar family favourites that focuses on seasonal produce.  We enjoyed our meal there and would describe the food as “comforting” and “nourishing”.  You can expect herbal soups and other wholesome dishes that would warm bellies.  We tried a range of dishes from Song Yue and would return with family for more comforting food. Before we started our meal proper, we had their home-pickled chilled dishes – Winter Melon Pickled with Fresh Passion Fruit, Pickled Cherry Tomatoes with Sour Plums and Pickled Cabba ..read more
