Badoque (Upper Thomson)

Having a Muslim as a best friend (yes, Mariem, that's you) means that I am constantly on the lookout for good halal restaurants. I have read very good reviews on Badoque and Mariem herself has commented about the huge portions and excellent food, making ever the more curious about this eatery. However, the first outlet at Simpang Bedok is simply too out of the way and I was elated when they finally opened another outlet at Upper Thomson.

 
 
 
Doesn't the name of this drink, Iced Salted Caramel, just sound so delicious? It is every bit as delicious as it sound. Thick melted vanilla ice-cream with whipped cream and caramel sauce. Heavenly.

 

 
The Blue Oyster is highly-recommended by Mariem and she is right. It is delicious. Plump and juicy oysters are breaded and deep-fried till a brilliant rich golden color. Have them piping hot, dipped in mayonnaise. The taste of the sea and richness of mayonnaise will explode in your mouth. It is almost as good as the Oysters Grill & Bar Wharf's Fried Oysters, but it lacks a little because the oysters are not creamy enough.
 
 
Badoque Ribs is recommended by the waiter who served us and it is a good recommendation. The ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender, glazed in their homemade B.B.Q sauce. It's similar to Morganfield's sticky bones, but not quite there yet.

 

 
Rib Rye Steak doesn't look very appetizing, but it tastes all right although the beef is a little grainy.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
