Save this for your next Indian food craving 📌

Located at Zhongshan Mall in Balestier, Tani Bistro & Bar serves up modern Indian dishes in a casual and cosy setting — perfect for family meals, casual dates, or supper gatherings.

The menu had a good mix of classic Indian comfort food and tandoor dishes, with generous portions and rich flavours throughout.

Some highlights for us:

Tandoori Chicken Biryani — fragrant rice with juicy, smoky chicken

Chicken Tikka Masala — creamy, flavourful, and pairs so well with naan

Kerala Fish Curry — rich, coconuty, tangy, and super comforting

Dahi Puri — crispy, refreshing

Chicken Tikka Trio & Paneer Tikka — smoky, tender, and great for sharing

Their garlic naan was crispy, buttery, and perfect for dipping into the curries.

Overall, a solid spot if you’re looking for hearty Indian food with a relaxed atmosphere in the Balestier area.

我們很喜歡：香氣很足的印度烤雞 Biryani、濃郁順口的 Chicken Tikka Masala、Kerala Fish Curry 帶有椰奶香和微酸感，很開胃也很下飯。

Dahi Puri 很清爽開胃，烤雞和 Paneer Tikka 也都有炭烤香氣✨

[Bugis] Quaich Bar Wanderlust — A Hidden “Secret Bar” Experience 🥃✨


Save this for your next night out 📌

Tucked away near Bugis Junction, this spot really feels like a hidden gem — discreet entrance, dim lighting.

The ambience leans elegant and slightly moody, whisky-focused bar setup. Perfect for a quiet date or chill catch-up.

Their sparkling infused whisky was a highlight — light, refreshing, and surprisingly easy to drink.

What stood out most was their tarot card-inspired cocktail menu 🔮
Each drink comes with a theme/story, making the whole experience a bit more fun and interactive.

Food-wise:
- Chunky Chilli Crabby Dip — creamy, slightly spicy, great with crispy chips
- Spicy Burrata Picante — rich, creamy with a nice chilli kick
- Guinness-braised Beef Cheeks — super tender, deep flavour, comforting

Overall, it’s not just about drinks — the concept, ambience, and thoughtful menu make it a full experience.

值得收藏 📌

這家有點“隱藏酒吧”的感覺，位置低調但很有氛圍。
環境偏昏暗、優雅，很適合約會或小聚。

氣泡威士忌很順口，不會太烈，清爽好喝。

塔羅牌主題的雞尾酒很有趣，每一杯都有故事感🔮

食物方面：
辣椒蟹醬配脆片很香濃，
布拉塔起司帶點辣味很開胃，
牛臉肉燉得很軟嫩、味道濃郁。
整體來說，是一間有特色又會想再來的酒吧✨

[City Hall/ Esplanade - Funan] Godmama — Modern Peranakan Brunch Done Right 🍳✨


Save this for your next makan.📌

This place is not your typical brunch spot —
modern Peranakan flavours in a cosy, aesthetic space.

Came for brunch and honestly… that egg yolk moment 😮‍💨
Rendang & Roti — rich, tender beef with a runny egg yolk that just brings everything together.
Deep, bold flavours and super comforting.

The Babi Assam Baked Eggs were tangy and savoury. Slightly sour from the assam, packed with flavour — a unique twist on baked eggs.

The Dry Laksa was not too spicy or oily.

Nyonya Fried Wings + Ngoh Hiang were solid starters. Crispy, juicy, easy crowd-pleasers.

Dessert helped end things on a lighter note.
Sticky Red Date Pudding was decent,
but the vanilla bean ice cream? That was the real winner 🍨✨

Overall, everything was good…

but honestly, the flavours are what you’ll remember.

What makes this place stand out is the balance —

[CBD – Telok Ayer] Club666 — Singapore’s First Micro Club With Capsule Rooms 👀



This place is not your typical club — more like a micro club concept with capsule-style seating, giving a more intimate and curated nightlife experience.

Came here with friends and honestly… the space is much smaller than usual clubs, but that’s what makes it different. You’re closer to everything — the DJ, the crowd, the energy.
Atmosphere-wise, it’s quite a unique setup.

Capsule-style seating around the space, with LED lights and visuals, and the whole place feels more enclosed and high-energy.

We had the beer tower while chilling with the crew, just part of the night while the music was going on.

Didn’t stay too long, but it was definitely an interesting experience and something different from the usual SG nightlife scene.

If you’re looking for a more intimate, close-up clubbing experience with friends, this is one to check out.

這家不是一般的大型夜店，而是新加坡第一家「微型夜店」，主打膠囊式座位，整體氛圍更私密、更集中。
這次和朋友一起來，空間不大，但反而讓整體氣氛更集中，也更靠近DJ。
店內是膠囊式座位設計，加上燈光和LED效果，整體氛圍比較緊湊、有包圍感。
我們也點了啤酒塔，一邊和朋友聊天、一邊聽音樂，是一個蠻輕鬆的夜晚。
雖然沒有待太久，但整體來說是一次蠻特別的體驗，和一般新加坡夜生活不太一樣。
如果想找一個比較特別、比較近距離的clubbing體驗，可以來看看。

[Clarke Quay] Fangko House — 21 Spice Levels Nearly Took Me Out 🌶️🔥


Save this for your next makan.📌

This place is not your typical café — more like Indo comfort food with a spicy twist.

Came for dinner and honestly… the Wet Indomie shocked me.
They have 21 spice levels and level 1 already spicy. Not kidding. Noodles were saucy, shiok, but lowkey dangerous. Sweat immediately 😭🔥

“The Madame” was my safe space.
Thick, buttery croque monsieur with ham + cheese, topped with a runny egg. Rich, comforting, very satisfying.

Mains were simple but solid.
Indomie hits if you love bold flavours. But must be ready for the spice.

Dessert helped save me.
Tiramisu — light, not too jelak, nice balance after the heat 🍰

Overall, everything was good…

but honestly, the spice levels are what you’ll remember.

What makes this place different is the contrast — cute, cozy café vibes but serving chaotic spice challenges.

值得收藏 📌
這家是走可愛咖啡館風格，但主打印尼風味和辣度挑戰。

印尼炒麵有21種辣度，連level 1都已經很辣，真的不能小看 🌶️

“The Madame”很加分，起司火腿三明治配上半熟蛋，口感濃郁又療癒。

提拉米蘇偏清爽，不會太膩，剛好中和辣味。

整體來說，環境舒服、食物有特色……
但最讓人印象深刻的還是那個辣度🔥

[Bugis / Lavender] Rustica — This Laksa Puff Lives Rent Free In My Headsg

Save this for your next makan.📌

This place is not your typical café — more like modern local food done properly.

Came for dinner and honestly… the Laksa Toupok Puff stole the whole show. Crispy beancurd skin on the outside, then inside got prawn + seabass soaked in thick laksa gravy. Rich, lemak, slightly spicy. Very shiok. Char Kway Teow had decent wok hei, not too oily.

Mains were solid too.
Fisherman White Pepper Soup — peppery, comforting, with fresh seafood sweetness.
Hainanese Curry Chicken — crispy chicken + thick curry. Mild spice, very lemak. Goes well with rice.

Desserts were surprisingly good. Beancurd & Tang Yuan — love the chewy al dente texture

Apam Berkuah — homemade pancake with fried banana + coconut ice cream, very nice combo.
Overall, everything was good…

but honestly, I’ll come back just for the laksa puff.

What makes this place different is they use local ingredients, from Singapore farms and fishermen, turned it into something more modern and creative.

值得收藏 📌
這家真的不是一般的咖啡館，是把本地料理做成精緻、現代的一家餐廳。

這次來吃晚餐，整場最搶戲的就是Laksa豆卜。

外層是酥脆的豆卜，裡面包著鮮蝦和鱸魚，吸滿濃郁的Laksa醬汁。
口味香濃、帶點微辣，吃起來非常過癮。

炒粿條也不錯，有鑊氣，而且不會太油。

主食方面，白胡椒海鮮湯 —胡椒味明顯，帶有海鮮的自然鮮甜，喝起來很暖胃又舒服。
海南咖哩雞 — 雞肉搭配濃郁咖哩，辣度溫和，很適合配飯。
甜點方面也有驚喜。
豆花湯圓 — 口感滑順，湯圓帶有Q彈嚼勁，我個人很喜歡這種口感。
Apam Berkuah —自製鬆餅搭配炸香蕉和椰子冰淇淋，冷熱交錯，整體搭配得很不錯。

整體來說，每一道都表現不錯……
但如果要說，我應該還是會為了Laksa豆卜再來一次。

最特別的是，這家餐廳使用來自新加坡本地農場和漁民的食材，再透過更現代、創意的方式呈現出來。

熟悉的味道，多了一點新意。
