Get a Taste of Ms Durian's Original Mao Shan Wang Durian Cake

If there’s one thing that always gets me excited, it’s finding local food creators who are genuinely passionate about what they do. So when the folks at Ms Durian ,  a cozy homegrown durian bakery and café, reached out to feature their star bake, I was totally onboard! What caught my attention right away is the story behind the brand. Founder Ling basically grew up in the trade, raised by her father who has been dealing durians for over 60 years. With that kind of heritage, their philosophy is simple: keep it authentic, real, and uncompromising on quality while preserving their family recipe. This post will feature their Signature 15cm Original Mao Shan Wang Durian Cake  that is built around pure, premium fruit: two whole layers of real Mao Shan Wang flesh tucked inside light, low-sugar chiffon cake , without a single drop of artificial flavorings. You can really tell when a bakery lets the natural sweetness and richness of good durians speak for itself. Here is my honest br...

Food Review | Tampopo

Stumble upon Tampopo when I was in town w the ladies and we made a deal to try out the next time we hang out. But since I'm in town w the husband, might as well try it out first. To save their calories from lousy stuff.

Tampopo is a family style Japanese restaurant that aim to serve with the best quality ingredients and is the pioneer of Kurobota (black pig) and has since named one of the best ramen in Singapore.

They have 2 restaurants in Singapore at Liang Court and Takashimaya. We visited the one at Takashimaya. 

IKA KARAAGE $11.00

This dish is tasty yet salty and have to go along with rice to minimize that saltiness. However this deep fried squid was good and chewy. Fresh ingredients indeed. Didn't squeeze the lemon as I always feel that it did not much help in enhancing the taste, like in Fish N' Chips.

KANI RAMEN $18.50

It didn't look that appetizing at one glance. But don't judge by its look. 


This is how it looks after mixing it. Lots of crabmeats you can find plus the noodles were well-cooked. The thicken soup base taste like sharkfins we had in a Chinese banquet. A good choice indeed. The egg was added in from their Mini Pork Rice ($4.80). The husband had the Ika Karaage with the Pork Rice. 

NABEYAKI UDON $13.50

Served in a mini hotpot, the broth was light and clear with just few ingredients to bring out the taste further. A light meal that simply ideal for weight watchers and comfort food during winter time. Definitely filled you 80% full towards the end. Unless you are a big eater.

Conclusion: Pricey but worth it once awhile.
