Andong Zzimdak

 For those of your who are not very familiar with Korean cuisine, jjim is a Korean dish where fish or chicken and various vegetables is marinated in ganjang (Korean soy sauce) before being steamed or boiled. Andong of Gyeongsangbuk-do province in Korea is especially known for this dish, and this popular Korean dish has finally arrived in Singapore in the form of Andong Zzimdak, located at the basement of Raffles City Shopping Centre.

Side dishes such as kimchi and radish are a given in any Korean restaurant and I must say that the kimchi is one of the best I have tasted.

Since I am in a Korean restaurant, I thought I would drink a Korean drink, so I had Iced Citron Tea,which is a popular Korean drink for its many health benefits in addition to its delicious taste such as its ability to smooth the throat and seasickness and it is an excellent source of vitamin c. It is sweet with the fleshing taste of citron, an excellent drink to go with your meal.

The restaurant's signature Andong Jjimdak is good for sharing so I got the single portion Andong Zzimdak instead. The chicken meat, potatoes and carrots are very tender, served with chewy sweet potato noodles. The sauce is very similar to that of Japanese teriyaki but not as sweet, with just a hint of spiciness. There are also Boneless Jjimdak and Seafood Jjamdak variations and Mayak Jjmdak for those who like spicy food.

I was craving for some spicy Korean stew so I ordered Seafood Kimchi Soup which was loaded with kimchi, mussels and prawns. Spicy and delicious, the best way to eat this stew is to mix a bowl of rice in it.
 
Andong Zzimdak is the first Korean restaurant in Singapore to specialize in Andong Zzimdak. This restaurant is known for its Korean army stews and authentic Korean dishes.

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...
