Maccha House (Suntec City)

 Maccha or Matcha is finely ground powder of specially grown and processed green tea. Matcha has become very popular in Japan ever since its introduction in 1911 and the traditional Japanese tea ceremony, the ceremonial preparation and presentation of matcha, has gained recognition worldwide. 

 
 
Maccha House is a Japanese-style cafe serving up a small menu of maccha mains and desserts. There are just 7 mains on the menu (Maccha House Bento, Teriyaki Salmon Set, Tonkotsu Curry Set, Beef Sukiyaki Set, Ishikari Hotpot Set, Oyster Set) and many choices for drinks and desserts such as Maccha Choco Latte, Maccha Doriyaki, Maccha Chocolate Parfait and Maccha Tiramisu.
 
 
Maccha House Bento ($9.99) is ideal for Maccha House newbies like myself where I get to sample a bit of everything. The set inculdes Chicken Chashu Soba, California Maki, Beef & Pork Hamburg, Mini Chawanmushi and Maccha Tiramisu Dessert. The soba in Chicken Chashu Soba is a little overcooked but the broth is refreshingly sweet and the portion size just nice. California Maki is a little messy but makes up for it with good blend between the ingredients. Beef & Pork Hamburg is really just a meatball and mini chawanmushi is rather blend, but I am so in love with the Maccha Tiramisu Dessert. It is not perfect, but it is an enjoyable light meal that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner.
 
The Suntec City outlet does not have a kitchen so it shares a kitchen with Shabu Sai. Orders orders and bill have to be settled at Shabu Sai but the cosy seating arrangement makes it worthwhile. Try to get a seat along the ceiling-to-floor glass, it offers a good view of the famous Fountain of Wealth. If you are lucky yo visit the cafe on a sunny day, the warm sunrays and delicious maccha desserts makes this the ideal place for a lazy afternoon with a good book or people-watching.

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...
