 Nya Nya Your Peranakan Cafe

 A Peranakan cafe has opened up in Suntec City, taking over the place previously occupied by Cocoa Colony. This cafe is hugely popular with the office workers in the area and the cafe is jam-packed with people especially during lunchtime. Be sure to come down early and secure a place!

Ayam Buah Keluak Rice can be considered one of the signatures of the Peranakan cuisine. The chicken is cooked using the nuts from Pangium edule (the "Kapayang" tree), giving the dish its sour and spicy flavours. Accompanied by nonya achar, ikan bilis and roasted peanuts and a scoop of the black aromatic buah keluak paste that tastes like black fermented beancurd. The sour and spicy flavours have worked its way into the tender chicken.

Beef Rendang Rice is a little disappointing in my opinion. The robust and flavorful rendang sauce is good, but the beef itself is really hard. Sadly, I like the condiments nonya achar (Peranakan spicy pickles vegetables) and ikan bilis and roasted peanuts
more. It is a far cry from the chewy and tender beef rendang I had at Penang Place Restaurant the week before.

Nya Nya Your Peranakan Cafe serves an assortment of nonya kuehs, beautifully displayed in the glass cabinet beside the cashier. The kuehs sell out pretty fast, so do act fast and order before someone else takes that last piece of your favourite kueh. Some of the available kuehs are Kosui Gula Melaka, Ondeh Gula Melaka, Red Bean Hong Kueh, Jackfruit Custard, Talam Yam, Pandan Jelly, Sago Lapis and Bakar. I personally find that the kuehs taste just average, nothing special about them.

Nya Nya Your Peranakan Cafe serves some very interesting-sounding drinks such as this Butter Coffee, where two slices of butter are added to a cup of thick black coffee. Another interesting drink is the Gula Melaka Coffee/Tea where gula Melaka (palm sugar) is used in place of condensed milk and refined sugar, giving your drink a tropical sweetness.
 
I can't comment on the authenticity of the food at Nya Nya Your Peranakan Cafe because I did not grow up eating Peranakan food, but I have read many reviews that the food here is very authentic.

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...
