I was fortunate to stay with my friend in her service apartment. I arrived on a Tuesday (holiday) afternoon, left my luggage at her place and went straight to H&M. After shopping we ate at Red House. We started with boiled sweet peanuts and hot tea.

For Main Course, we ordered Cereal Prawns and Chili Crab. I love their Cereal Prawns. For my "sawsawan," I asked for vinegar and chili sauce. Sarap! I thought this would be the highlight of our dinner until the Chili Crab arrived with the Mantou bread - perfect combination. Super yummy! I wanted to eat more but I was super full already.

After our satisfying dinner, we walked around the block and settled at Pies and Coffee. The place is so nice, love the ambiance. We ordered hot tea and coffee.
The next day, I went to our SG office. I had lunch with my Filipino Colleagues at Shin-Sapporo Ramen. I wanted to order the Menchi "value meal" but opted to order what my colleagues have recommended: Beef Gyudon. It was quite okay for a lunch meal - added spicy sesame oil to make it more exciting.

Then for dinner, I went out with my team. I saw this restaurant near my friend's service apartment, Brussel Sprouts. Unfortunately, will be dining at a different branch - inside Sentosa.
I was so excited to eat Mussels. Our host ordered for us. He ordered 4 buckets of Classic Mussels dish, some cheese and cold cuts platters.

The Mussels were fine (big, flavorful and with good texture) but I didn't enjoy the dish that much. I think I'm not a fan of the sauce: Vin Blanc (onion, parsley, butter, celery, leek and white wine). Next time, I would love to try their Cream-based: Ostendaise (fish stock, lobster bisque, shrimp and mushroom) and Poulette (parsley, butter, mushroom, chicken stock and cream). These are the recommendation of the Filipina waiter.
For dessert, we ordered the Lava Cake!

On my 3rd day in Singapore. I booked a lunch date with my former colleague-friend. We both love spicy food so we agreed to eat at a Korean restaurant, Auntie Kim's. As expected, there were yummy appetizers!
For Main Course, we ordered Spicy Pork Bulgogi and Seafood Pajeon. Oh, I love Korean Food! The Spicy Pork Bulgogi was to raved for. I would strongly recommend to order this dish!

For dinner, I met my old team mates. We ate at Imperial Treasure Steamboat. On your table, you will see many dipping sauces. Since we didn't know how to mix the sauces, we asked the waitress to do it for us. Just tell them whether you want it spicy or not.
We ordered the set meal for 4. We added the fish skin. This dish is so delicious - must try!

I liked the Satay soup-base. So yummy! And for any shabu-shabu meal, you just have to shoot all the meat, balls, veggies and seafood into the pot. Once cooked, you can dip your meat into the mix (prepared by the waitress earlier). Wow, I really got "bundat" with this meal. I was hoping there's more space in my stomach to eat more...
After dinner, we walked along Orchard looking for a dessert place. We found Robert Timms. We ordered coffees and cakes. Another colleague followed and order his sandwich. We didn't bother trying it because we were really very full!

We had so much "kwentos," we ended around 12 midnight. It was a great day catching up with friends.
On my 4th day, I had a brunch meeting outside of the office - BoomArang. I ordered coffee and Eggs Benedict. It was a good meal to end my SG trip. I loved the smoked salmon!

I will surely go back to Singapore to discover more good restaurants!
