Sembawang Traditional Claypot Rice

 Sembawang Traditional Claypot Rice is a family business run by Don Giam, his wife, Doris Wu and his son, Adrian Giam. 

This humble restaurant is barely 2 years old and it's already drawing in the crowds with its mouthwatering dishes.

Traditional Claypot Rice 原味沙煲饭 is one of the signature dishes here. Cooked in the traditional way with premium raw rice, chicken, salted fish, Chinese sausage, vegetables and their special recipe made using 10 spices and herbs, cooked over a charcoal stove. Stir in the dark soy sauce and sesame oil, and you have a bowl of fragrant Claypot rice that is a meal by itself.

San Lou Bee Hoon 三楼米粉 is another of the restaurant's signature dish.

If you thought Deep Fried Salted Egg Bitter Gourd 咸蛋苦瓜 will make eating bitter gourd a less painful experience, you are in for a surprise. Although the sliced bitter gourd has been deep fried and coated with fragrant salted egg sauce, it does little to camouflage the bitterness of the bitter gourd.

Crispy Salted Egg Sotong 咸香苏东 is definitely the highlight of the meal. The battered sotong(squid) is deep-fried and bathed in a delicious salted egg sauce. Savoury salted and satisfyingly-crunchy with a soft inside, this dish makes the Western version calamari lose colour.

I had high hopes for the Cereal Prawns 麦片虾 but it was a letdown. The cereal is a little dry but still crunchy and the prawns are juicy, but the two just does not come together. They are simply, cereal and prawn, not cereal prawn. 

Although Sembawang Traditional Claypot Rice has its hits and misses, I believe that it is still a good place for families and gatherings with its spacious design and wallet-friendly prices.

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...
