Ramen Champion @ Bugis Plus

In Singapore, school holiday doesnt really mean "holiday" as there are so much homeworks and things to be done. So during my 1 week "Holiday" right after my Space Challenge Workshop, my team and I walked over to Bugis+ to settle on our cravings: Japanese Ramen.

Ramen Champion is a restaurant that consist of 5 different Ramen Stalls located within. This 5 Ramen Stalls battle out to see which one of them serve the best bowl of ramen. It operates on a cash-less system and you’ll be given a card upon entry, everything you’ve ordered will be charged to the card and payment is upon exit.

Once you enter, you'll feel like you're in one of those Japanese village.It was lunch period and thankfully it wasn't crowded. 


It was tough to choose between which 1 of the 5 ramen stalls to eat, so i just randomly picked a Ramen Stall. 

I've ordered the Beef God Ramen,  including gyoza :P gyoza was fresh but the fillings was disappointing.




While my friends ordered Pork ramen

I must say that their egg is poached to perfection! However, their soup may taste quite salty. Hence, i ordered a freshly  squeezed Asashi beer! 


Avg $16 per pax

Bread Street Kitchen @ Marina Bay Sands

And finally me and my classmates are able to get to have a taste of one of the Celebrity Chef owned restaurant here in Singapore @ Shoppes at Marina Bay Sand. We had to reserve a table in advance if not we have to wait really long.

Gordon Ramsay needs little introduction as he's really popular in Hell's Kitchen, Kitchen Nightmare's (one of my favourite shows) etc. His Bread Street Kitchen is helmed by Executive Chef Sabrina Stillhart, who previously worked with him at London’s BSK and the one Michelin starred Savoy Grill. 


Bread Street Kitchen is a 2 level restaurant. The top floor is the outdoor dining and bar area where you are able to enjoy the scenic view of Singapore's Central Business District together with the breeze of salt water from the Singapore River. And the ground floor is cozy with great atmosphere and lighting. 
Service is efficient and prompt, from serving your food, refilling of water and payment.

The food is pricey, can't complain much because of its location and it's Celebrity Chef label. 


While waiting for our food, freshly baked bread from the oven and home made butter was served.

Our appertiser:
Scallops

My friends' dishes:









And this is my messy half eaten burger! :) Juicy and flavourful with every bite! Fresh Cut fries, really filling!

Avg per pax S$20

Dirty Duck Diner @ The Ubud Building


Bebek Begil serves one of the best crispy duck and crispy chicken rice I've ever had in my life! This restaurant was originated from Bali, Indonesia and they opened one of their third restaurants here in Jakarta.

My aunt brought us here to try and i must say this restaurant swept me off my feet!
I've ordered the crispy chicken rice because they serve special nasi kunyit* (indonesia for: tumeric rice cook with coconut) which make the rice really fragrant and appetising. Nevertheless i shared the trademark dish (didn't manage to take a pic) with my mom which was the crispy duck and it tasted heavenly!

Before our food was serve, the waitress serves us their signature appertizer and  *belachan (spicy chilly)
This is the belachan! It literally goes well with anything! Its so good that many customer will buy a jar of it home.

This is what i had: The Crispy half chicken with yellow rice! It was tender, succulent and flavourful with a crackly-crisp skin.

And yes its highly recommend to visit this restaurant if your here in Jakarta and I will definitely visit here once again!
