May 9, 2026 | Eda Wong | Last Updated September 24, 2026 I have spent the last six months navigating the tight corridors and bustling walkways of Fortune Centre, determined to map out the Fortune Centre food scene beyond its best-known stalls. I’ve tried all of these famous stalls, sampling everything from intricate plant-based creations to…
I didn’t set out to write about steak. It started with a bad day and a craving for something that pushed back when I bit into it. One dinner turned into a habit, and over a couple of years I found myself at counters, coffeeshops, and dining rooms all over this island, chasing the same…
Sashimi is one of the clearest ways to understand Japanese cuisine because there is very little to hide behind. At its simplest, sashimi is sliced raw fish or seafood served without sushi rice, usually with soy sauce, wasabi, and simple garnishes such as daikon radish. But the dish is not just “raw fish on a…
I’d spent the morning with kaya toast. Crisp bread, cold butter, the clean snap of it between my teeth. Good, all of it. But by the time I’d walked a few streets over to New Bridge Road, my mouth wanted the opposite. Something warm. Something that gave way instead of shattering. That’s how I ended…
I almost walked past it. I’d been looking for the old triangular building, the red-and-white one you see in every photo of Keong Saik, the one that made Tong Ah feel like a landmark before you’d even ordered anything. But that’s not where it lives anymore. It’s a few doors down now, at 35 Keong…

The first time I ate breakfast in Chinatown, I got it wrong. I arrived at eleven, hungry and hopeful, and found the kopi stalls already turning toward lunch. The porridge uncle was packing up. The toast man had switched to slicing char siew. I ate a rushed plate of noodles standing near a pillar, sweating,…
I’ve been eating sushi in this city for years now, from S$1.50 plates rolling past on a belt to omakase counters where the bill made me sit up straight. Somewhere along the way I stopped chasing “the best” and started noticing something else — that good sushi answers a mood, not a ranking. Some nights…
January 28, 2026 | Dio Asahi Last updated: September 14, 2026 As you step behind the humble noren curtain, you’re greeted by glowing lanterns, sizzling charcoal-grilled skewers, and warm welcomes. This is izakaya, Japan’s casual pub, a vibrant part of Singapore’s dining scene. More than just yakitori and sake, izakayas offer a lively setting for social…
It was close to eleven at night when I finally sat down. The kind of hour when you’re not really hungry so much as unsettled, when you want something warm in front of you more than you want a proper meal. Al Mubin’s food court at Block 407, Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10, was still…
