Masizzim (Westgate) - Korean Food with a Modern Twist

 Masizzim (Westgate)

 Masizzim created quite a stir when it opened its first outlet at 313 Somerset in 2015 and again in 2017 when the second outlet at Westgate opened. 
 
Masizzim is a Korean casual restaurant that is hugely popular in South Korea. Brought in by K Food Holdings who also brought in Chir Chir, Masizzim is a combination of two Korean words: “masi” which means “delicious” and “zzim” which means “stew”. Masizzim is famous for their “galbi jjim”, beef and pork stew dishes.

Tuna Seaweed Egg Roll [$10.80] and Honey Mustard Cheese Egg Roll [$9.80] are two of the newer side dishes that have become hugely popular. I thought the tuna and seaweed combination is pretty common so I decided to go with the Honey Mustard Cheese Egg Roll. I like the rolled egg omelette which reminds me a little of Japanese tamagoyaki and the addition of oozy cheese makes it more luxurious. I personally feel that the honey mustard sauce is redundant although it lends a sweetness to the dish.

There are 4 steps to ordering stews at Masizzim: 
1. Choose the type of stew: Beef, Pork, Chicken (spicy only) or Seafood (spicy only)
2. Choose the flavour of stew: Soy or Spicy (level 1-4)
3. Choose noodles: Udon or Glass Noodles 
4. Choose optional add-one: Cheese ($2), Toppoki ($2) or Extra Noodles ($2)
 
This is their signature Beef Rib Stew [$18.80 for a single portion, $32.80 for double portion] that garnered rave reviews from many celebrity bloggers and I just had to try it for myself to see if it is worth all the hype. The beef is marinated overnight and cooked for 6 hours in special Masizzim recipe sauce before being served in a cast-iron pot. The beef ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender and the sweet-salty broth make it irresistible. 
 
Alternatively, these is Spicy Seafood Beef Stew [$38.80 for two persons], Spicy Seafood Stew [$36.80 for two persons], Spicy Chicken Stew [$16.80 for a single portion, $29.80 for double portion] and Pork Rib Stew [16.80 for a single portion, $29.80 for double portion].

Masizzim lets you make your own Korean riceballs. You have a choice of Rice Ball (Crabmeat & Roe) [$10.80], Rice Ball (Tuna) [$9.80] or Rice Ball (Anchovy) [$9.80]. Don your gloves, mix the ingredients together and make those balls which tastes surprisingly tasty. 
 
Besides stews and rice balls, Masizzim also has a range of tasty Korean dishes such as pancakes, spicy beef and spicy pork.

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...
