Eat Drink Asia Team
Our Eat Drink Asia team spends a lot of time debating what makes a truly unforgettable meal. The team has previously published articles exploring the redefinition of comfort food. That is exactly what led me to The Malayan Council at 71 Bussorah Street. I visited on a Friday around 7:30 pm, just as the weekend…
I’ve always had a love-hate relationship with Sichuan food. Usually, you walk into a spot, order your food, and spend the rest of the night sweating through your shirt, chugging ice water, and wondering why you did this to yourself. But when I visited Si Chuan Dou Hua Restaurant on a Tuesday around 7 pm,…
When we first tried the notorious Samyang 2x Spicy Buldak noodles, we treated it exactly how the internet told us to: like a dare. We boiled the noodles, poured in every last drop of the blood-red sauce, and braced ourselves. Within three bites, our palates were completely blown out. We could not taste the savoury…
When you sit down at an omakase counter, you are not just paying for dinner. You are paying for a culinary journey. Over the past twelve months, we have made it our mission to explore the thriving Japanese dining scene across the island. We have sat at over a dozen premium counters, watching master chefs…
For a long time, many viewed Chinese food as one giant, delicious monolith, characterized by intense heat, heavy sauces, and wok-tossed brilliance.

We have always believed that a brilliant plate of Japanese curry is the ultimate culinary hug. Over the past eight months, we made it our personal mission to embark on a comprehensive culinary journey across Singapore, hunting down the absolute best bowls of this rich, deeply savoury dish. We have tried over 20 different Japanese…
Noodles have a timeless place in the world of food, and Taste Our Traditions can attest that only few dishes are as universally loved. What makes a bowl of noodles truly stand out is not just the ingredients, but the artistry and skill behind their creation. Noodle-making is an ancient craft that demands patience, precision,…
For years, we told ourselves that truly great Asian cooking was a mystical art form, a craft reserved for seasoned hawker uncles or Michelin-starred chefs with decades of experience. Our own attempts at home often felt like pale imitations, lacking that deep, smoky flavour or that perfect textural contrast we craved. Then, we had dinner…
We still remember our first collective Rumah Terbuka (Open House) experience in Kuala Lumpur.Standing at the doorway of a home during Hari Raya, we were utterly paralyzed by the sheer volume of people and the aroma of Malaysian cooking. There were aunties ladling beef rendang and tables groaning under the weight of colourful kuih. “Do…
