Eighteen Chefs @ Tiong Bahru Plaza

My friend and I were looking for lunch at Tiong Bahru Plaza and came upon this restaurant. I remembered reading about the restaurant owner being an ex drug addict and and worked at Jamie Oliver's restaurant, Fifteen before coming back to Singapore and opening his own restaurant.

The restaurant has a mix and match menu for baked rice or pasta beside the normal ala carte menu. We went for some fun in designing our own baked rice and pasta. A simple four steps whereby you just pick and tick the items on your order sheet.

Step 1 and 2 

Step 3 and 4

My friend had the cheese baked rice with tangy tomato sauce and chicken slices while I have the cheese baked pasta with creamy white sauce and salmon. Cheesy it was but we were a bit disappointed with our dishes. The sauces were nice but the pasta and rice did not manage to absorb it, the taste was separated.

Ya Mei Shu Si (亚媚熟食) @ Beo Crescent Food Centre

I wrapped up my food print at Beo Crescent Food Centre with a traditional Chinese dessert at the price of only one dollar. Yes, one dollar dessert! It is quite hard to find such cheap and nice dessert in Singapore nowadays. The warmness and sweetness of the dessert completed my satisfying food experience at Beo Crescent where I rediscovered tradition in our hawker food.


Da Mai Dessert 4.2/5
