One of the few popular Onomichi-style ramen restaurant in Onomichi. Since it was just a day trip, we didn’t have time to try all the top ramen spots. So, we decided to go for the most popular rated and conveniently located one on based Tabelog.
Read MoreA well-known café in Kurashiki, this spot is a charming traditional specialty coffeehouse that roasts its own beans in-house and serves only cloth-dripped coffee. With its retro décor and cosy atmosphere, it transports you back in time, encouraging you to slow down, unwind, and savour the moment.
Read MoreOne of the popular machiya in Kurashiki, this inviting spot serves both meals and desserts, featuring nostalgic décor with a warm, relaxing atmosphere, predominantly in wood tones. They even have a stunning long communal table crafted from live-edge wood!
Read MoreTo start off the opening of this review, polipo highly exceeded our expectations and we love it so much that we are missing the food dearly now. Before the trip I have researched the food places we wanted to try, and I do know polipo is one of the best and authentic Neapolitan restaurant in Hiroshima. Chef is Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana (AVPN) certified also, that should tells you a bit about his pizza baseline before even dining there. (Of course the restaurant uses a wood-fired oven)
Read MoreOne of our wishlists for a long time was to try out an oyster buffet at an oyster farm, which is by the sea too (saying the obvious). Plus it was a fun experience for both of us and a yummy one too at Shimada Suisan!
Read MoreWe have finally made our first visit to the legendary tonkatsu restaurant in Japan, Tonkatsu Narikura! Awarded with many consecutive years of Tabelog & Hyakumeiten awards, plus a Tabelog score of 4.26+, I believe any tonkatsu lover or foodie will know of this restaurant and/or chef Seizo Mitani.
Read MoreOn our final day in Japan, we only had time for a morning quick trip to Nanzoin Temple - known for its bronze statue of a reclining Buddha, said to be the largest bronze statue in the world.
Read MoreToday will be a very relaxing pace, and also the first time of our entire trip thus far that we went out of our hotel room around 10am. We will be visiting Ohori Park, Fukuoka Castle Ruins, and Fukuoka Tower as the title.
Read MoreWe will be spending a day trip exploring the quaint (and rather touristy) town Yufuin, where one could experience mountains, lakes and onsen in this small town.
Read MoreToday we will be spending a day exploring Hiroshima studying its historical part; which are the A-Bomb Dome, Peace Memorial Park, and Peace Memorial Museum.
Read MoreA very popular restaurant chain from LA known for their burgers and sides with eggs (obviously)! We didn’t join in opening hype when they launched in September, cause we are lazy (and I blame COVID-19 for it).
But hey, better late than never!
Read MoreToday, it will be a day trip to Miyajima and will be moving our hotel base from Osaka to Hiroshima. This is another day of super early wake up to check out of the hotel, and take one of the earliest shinkansen from Shin-Osaka to Hiroshima Station.
Read MoreProbably the best Cendol in Singapore, we have eaten this bowl of delicious Cendol many times over the years. Even brought some of our good friends all the way to Changi Village just for this (and Nasi Lemak).
So let’s go straight to the review!
Read MoreInternational Nasi Lemak is probably the nostalgia nasi lemak for me, I started eating there since my secondary school days (close to 20 years ago); when their old stall location is where Mizzy Corner Nasi Lemak currently is now.
So the main question is, how their nasi lemak fares with so many new competitors with easier accessibility and more branches.
Read MoreBurger & Lobster surely doesn’t need any introduction, and we finally made it to B&L Jewel Changi Airport after a couple of times of postponement (CB and Phase 2 HA)!
We have been anticipating this trip for a long time, so how will this super hype restaurant from London fare?
Read MoreAnother (lost count of how many) super early morning start, since today we need to travel from Osaka to Okayama for a jam-packed schedule. Fortunately, we travelled by the faster trains; Shinkansen (return trip from Osaka to Okayama) and Limited Express (return trip from Okayama to Kojima).
Read MoreChef Choo Signature is the 2nd stall we tried on our visit to Golden Mile Food Centre last Saturday, the 1st was Ashes Burnnit as per our previous post.
So…does the food lives up to the reputation of an ex 5-star hotel chef?
Read MoreHighly rated hawker burger stall at Golden Mile Food Centre…and not going to lie, we went the next day after watching Food King to try Ashes Burnnit and Chef Choo Signature.
Read MoreAnother super early morning start since we need to travel from Osaka to Kyoto (local train->shinkansen->local train). Today we will be visiting Fushimi Inari, Ginkakuji, and Arashiyama in Kyoto.
Read MoreToday’s main objective is to visit Kaiyukan as we didn’t manage to enter the other day due to a long snaking queue. Apart from that, we also travelled for photo ops at a couple of iconic Osaka’s spots.
