Sushi to Sumi

Who doesn’t have a soft spot for sushi? Whether it’s a quick grab from the store or a fun outing to a conveyor belt sushi spot, there’s something irresistible about the marriage of rice and fresh fish. But when word spreads about a top-notch Japanese sushi chef setting up shop in town, excitement brews – though often dampened by the steep prices.

Enter Sushi to Sumi, Singapore’s pioneering standing sushi joint, offering exquisite omakase sets without breaking the bank. How do they manage it? The secret lies in their direct connection to Goodvibes, a wholesaler that sources top-quality fish and ingredients straight from Japan. This means Sushi to Sumi can maintain high standards while keeping prices friendly.

Let’s talk about their Ume set, the most budget-friendly option. For just S$30 at lunchtime (or S$50 at dinner), you’ll be treated to eight mouthwatering sushi pieces, a grilled seafood dish, and a comforting bowl of miso soup.

Feeling more indulgent? Level up to the Take set (S$45 for lunch, S$80 for dinner) for ten sushi pieces, that grilled seafood dish, miso soup, and a bonus ala carte treat. And if you’re really in the mood to spoil yourself, go for the Matsu set (S$80 for lunch, S$120 for dinner). With twelve pieces of sushi, grilled seafood delight, miso soup, and an extra signature dish, it’s a feast fit for royalty.

Considering that the typical omakase experience in Singapore can easily hit S$100 per person, Sushi to Sumi stands out as a beacon of value, offering top-notch quality without emptying your wallet. So next time you’re craving a sushi fix, why not try Sushi to Sumi? It’s a win-win for your taste buds and your bank account.

New Restaurants to Try Out in December 2023 in Singapore

Lo Quay Singapore

If you’re exploring new Vietnamese cuisine, Lo Quay, a new restaurant in Singapore, is a spot that might catch your eye on Google. Tucked away on Amoy Street in a shophouse, this restaurant goes for a low-key vibe. You even have to ring a doorbell to get in! Once inside, the ambiance is moody and stylish, with AI-generated artworks for sale on the walls.

Forget the regular menu and choose the Discover menu (S$138+), available for dinner from Monday to Saturday in Singapore. It mirrors chef Qunyh Brown’s take on modern Vietnamese cuisine. The starter includes seven snacks like wagyu tartare, oyster with caviar, and scallop and ikura in a pate choux. The banh mi Wellington adds a cool twist with glazed puff pastry and pickled Japanese cucumbers.

The fried jackfruit with tomato surprised everyone at the table. It tasted nothing like the fruit! It’s a unique experience that requires a moment to process after each bite. Move to the pho bo (beef noodle soup) for a flavorful combo of beef broth, wagyu, and offal bits. Now, onto the main dishes—perfect for sharing among three people. Choose from lamb, sea bass, duck, or wagyu. The whole sea bass, served with tangy citrus salad, is flaky and homely—an absolute comfort.

For meat lovers, the wagyu steals the show with its tenderness and flavorful kick from the demi-glace. And, of course, the meal isn’t complete without dessert. Chef Qunyh transforms Vietnamese coffee into a crunch parfait with condensed milk and espresso sponge—a refreshing end to the dinner.

If you dine here, pair your meal with carefully chosen vintage wines (S$98+). The sommelier suggests them.

Chicco Pasta Bar

Simple and tasty food—that’s what you’ll find at Chicco Pasta Bar, new restaurant in Singapore. Look no further if you want a place with a chill atmosphere and homemade pasta that won’t break the bank. Chicco Pasta Bar, run by Australian-Italian chef Drew Nocente, is our top pick for a casual meal, whether it’s a quick lunch with coworkers, a relaxed dinner with friends, or a laid-back first date.

Chef Drew takes pride in serving fresh pasta daily, offering varieties like conchiglie, rigatoni, and mafaldine. Almost half of the menu features signature dishes that are well-loved, and we agree after trying them out.

• For a cheesy start, go for the fried mozzarella and basil (S$12) or the classic burrata (S$20) served on a bed of rocket leaves, cucumber slices, and melon chunks.
• Then, indulge in some carb goodness with the fluffy focaccia slices (starting at S$10), generously topped with chorizo, zucchini, roasted pork belly, or fennel.
• And, of course, you can’t miss the pasta! The carbonara (S$18) is our favorite—wonderfully creamy and tossed with guanciale, egg, and pepper, just as it should be.

• Don’t forget to try the fresh and flavorful tagliolini with slipper lobster and bisque (S$24) and the fusilli with mushroom and nduja (S$20).
• If you’re with friends, dive into the dinner-exclusive meaty mains like pork with roasted baby potatoes (S$24) or Australian grass-fed ribeye (S$28).
• Finish your meal with the pistachio tiramisu and coffee mascarpone (S$12), a dessert worth capturing on camera as the rich, creamy layer cascades down the side.

Without a doubt, you’ll be back for seconds on everything.

Nong Geng Ji

Exciting news for food lovers in Singapore! A famous Hunan cuisine spot has opened its first international branch in Singapore. Grab your friends, secure a table, and get ready to savor genuine dishes. Watch for their top pick: stir-fried pork with juicy baby abalone and Hunan green peppers. This dish is served in a wok with a burner, ensuring it stays warm throughout your meal.

Another must-try is the pan-seared green chilies with century eggs and garlic. It comes in mortar, and you must work before digging in. Just pound everything, release the aromas and goodness, mix it up, and enjoy. If you’re a fan of fish heads, don’t pass up the steamed fish head with chopped peppers. The soy sauce and red and green peppers add a sweet and spicy kick to the freshwater fat-head fish.

Important note: Pair everything with rice. Don’t forget to order the Wuchang steamed rice with sweet potatoes and red dates. If rice isn’t your go-to carb, try the steamed shrimp with vermicelli and garlic. And after all those spicy delights, quench your thirst with their signature lemon tea. It’s a refreshing way to wrap up your meal.

Altro Zafferano

Craving a delightful Italian feast? You’re in for a treat! Altro Zafferano, new restaurant in Singapore, is introducing a brand-new a la carte menu, embracing seasonal vegetables, mushrooms, honeyed fruit, and the finest catches from the Mediterranean Sea. Executive chef Andrea de Paola interprets the menu through the lens of southern Italy, blending flavors inspired by the region’s rich history and stories.

For the ultimate experience, we recommend the four-course Experience menu (S$148). Choose a starter, pasta, main course, and dessert, and enjoy it 43 floors up with stunning city views. The aquarelle risotto, topped with scallop crudo and sea grapes, is a hearty dish bursting with ocean flavors. The scampi tortelli is a light option with a fragrant mushroom tea. Feeling like a bit of extravagance? Treat yourself to something special and consider splurging on the Santoku Wagyu striploin.

The show’s star is the house-made tagliolini with Piedmont white truffle shavings (a surprise off-menu item). The thin pasta is coated in a creamy sauce that’s delightfully salty without being overwhelming. Don’t forget the thoughtful wine pairing for each dish you choose. Wrap up your meal with a drink or two in the alfresco area to soak in the views. Cheers!

Burma Social

If you’ve ever visited Myanmar (formerly known as Burma), you’ll know that its residents are some of the friendliest people in the world.

Burma Social, on Tras Street near Tanjong Pagar, is attempting to finally put Myanmar cuisine on the map through its menu, that includes wok-fried dishes such as its chilli-and-pepper-infused mala chicken, and broths such as its spicy tomato-and-coconut-based curry.

FAQ

When is Mooncake Festival 2024? The Mooncake Festival, also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival, will be celebrated on September 17, 2024. This traditional festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar, marking the full moon.

How to make mooncakes? Making mooncakes involves preparing the dough, filling, and molds. Traditional mooncakes often use lotus seed paste or red bean paste as fillings, sometimes with salted egg yolks in the center. The dough is rolled out, filled, and then pressed into molds before being baked until golden brown. You can find many detailed recipes and video tutorials online to guide you through the process.

Where to buy mooncakes in Singapore? Mooncakes are available at various locations across Singapore, especially during the lead-up to the Mid-Autumn Festival. You can purchase mooncakes from hotels like The Ritz-Carlton, bakeries such as Tai Chong Kok, and specialty stores like Golden Moments. Supermarkets and online platforms also offer a wide variety of mooncakes for purchase.

How to make snow skin mooncakes? Snow skin mooncakes are unbaked mooncakes with a soft, chewy exterior. To make them, you’ll need glutinous rice flour, which is steamed and mixed with sugar and shortening to create the dough. The dough is then wrapped around your choice of filling, such as lotus paste, durian, or chocolate, and pressed into mooncake molds. These mooncakes are typically kept chilled rather than baked.

What is the Mooncake Festival? The Mooncake Festival, or Mid-Autumn Festival, is a traditional Chinese festival celebrating the harvest and the full moon. It’s a time for family reunions, sharing mooncakes, and appreciating the beauty of the full moon. The festival also has historical significance, with legends like the story of Chang’e, the Moon Goddess, adding to its cultural richness.

How long can mooncakes last? The shelf life of mooncakes depends on the type. Traditional baked mooncakes can last for up to 30 days if stored in a cool, dry place. Snowskin mooncakes, on the other hand, have a much shorter shelf life of around 7 to 10 days and should be stored in the refrigerator. Always check the packaging for specific storage instructions.

The post Top Kids Friendly Restaurants And Cafes In Singapore appeared first on BusyKidd.

Durian, known as ‘the king of fruits’, tends to be like Marmite – you either love it or hate it – but that hasn’t stopped it becoming one of the most expensive fruits across the globe. For most of those who love it, durian is simply the best fruit in the world, even though you wouldn’t guess that from looking at its spiky skin or smelling its pungent aroma. The novelist Anthony Burgess once described the experience of eating durian as ‘like eating sweet raspberry blancmange in the lavatory’. In fact, it’s so odorous that in some countries it’s banned in public spaces, such as hotels, and many types of transportation, such boats and planes. But once you’ve broken through durian’s exterior shell, and ignored your nose, its flesh has a delectable texture and taste – it melts in the mouth with a creamy and custard-like texture. BusyKidd has picked up all you need to know about this famous exotic fruit.

Unusual Durian Facts

• Durians only grow in the tropical climates of south-east Asia, with the region’s top 3 producers being Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. Although there are 30 different varieties of the fruit, only 9 are edible, and some of these have exotic names such Golden Phoenix, Red Prawn, and Musang King.

• The durians with the best flavour will have fallen naturally from the tree, so many expert purchasers suggest you should look for a frayed stem, rather than a cut one, when selecting fruits in the shops. Most durians fall from the tree at night due to the cooler temperatures.

• Hitting durians helps to release more complex flavours so, after farmers have harvested them using big nets strung at the bottom of the tall trees (which grow up to 50m tall) they whack them with a stick, taking care not to damage the fruit.

• The average durian tree will bear 50-100 fruit per year, with an average weight of 2kg. That means that durian trees can hold up to 200kg of fruit, about the same weight as three adult humans. However, the durians that get the most direct sunlight tend to have the best flavour, so fruits from the same tree often taste different.

• Fruits from older trees tend to have more powerful bittersweet flavours, and so are likely to be more popular with people who are more familiar with durian.

How To Choose A Durian

Check its skin: you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but you can often judge a durian by its shell. The spikes on the durian skin should be sharp and firmly in place. Softer spikes or those that are falling off suggest a fruit that past its best.

Give it a sniff: the famous smell of the durian is also a good clue as to whether it’s ready for eating. A ripe durian should have a sweet and rich fragrance but not one that’s overpowering. If the smell is very strong it’s probably because the fruit is overripe.

Look inside: If the durian has been opened and you can see inside it, check that the flesh has a cream or yellow colour and is not bruised or discoloured. The colour varies between varieties, however, with some having a darker yellow flesh when ripe.

Give it a bang: some afficionados of durian are adamant that you should tap the fruit with a bent finger and listen to the noise. If you get a drum-like sound it indicates there are some hollow gaps of air inside, which normally means the durian is ripe.

Give it a gentle squeeze: you don’t want to damage a fruit but if it yields very slightly when you press it that normally indicates it is ripe to eat.

How To Prepare Durian

Preparing durian is a messy and smelly business, so make sure you cut the fruit over sheets of newspaper or a plastic bag so that you can easily dispose of the remnants. It’s also advisable to wear gloves are the fruit’s spikes can be very sharp. First, look for seams or small natural cracks in the durian’s husk near the stem, then insert your knife in one and gently pry the shell open. Most durians have several large sections of flesh containing seeds that are somewhat similar to an avocado’s. Scoop out these sections with a large spoon or your hands, making sure not to damage the flesh too much so that it doesn’t become too messy. Some people like to eat the flesh directly from the seed while others prefer to remove the flesh before eating it.

How to Store Durian

Durian doesn’t keep for very long and is best eaten within 24 hours of opening it. Although you can store it for 4-5 days in a fridge, you’ll need to use an airtight container to stop the aromas overwhelming everything else. You can, however, freeze the durian in an airtight container and it will keep for several months and is ideal for making smoothies. However long you store it for, expect the smell to take over your house. Some people say that the best place to eat a durian is in the market where you buy it, as you can leave both the shell and the smell behind!

Durian Dishes

If you’d prefer to use your durian to make a dish rather than eat it fresh, it makes a surprisingly good ingredient for a number of dishes, including durian ice cream, durian cheesecake, durian smoothies and milkshakes, durian pancakes and pastries. Here are two simple recipes that you might like to try:

Durian smoothie

Ingredients:

• 500 ml of plain yoghurt
• 50g of durian flesh (seeds removed)
• 1 medium-sized banana
• 25g of ice
• 1 teaspoon of honey (optional)

Method:

Simply blend all the ingredients in a blender until smooth. Serve and consume immediately.

Durian pancakes

Ingredients for batter:

• 100 g of all-purpose flour
• 20 g of sugar
• 100 ml of coconut milk
• 200 ml of milk
• 2 large eggs

Ingredients for filling:

• 300g of durian
• 180 ml of whipping cream

Method:

Place the batter ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Rest the batter in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. After this resting period, pour about one third of the mixture into an oiled 10-inch frying pan and spread it out to achieve a thin crepe-like thickness. Cook for about 1-2 minutes on a medium heat then flip the pancake and repeat for the other side. Leave the pancakes to cool then fill them with the durian flesh and whipped cream, folding the filled pancakes into squares. Chill in the fridge before serving.

Give Durian a Try

Although some people are obsessed with durian, not everyone likes this unusual fruit. However, don’t be put off by its infamous smell or tales of people not enjoying it. Try durian yourself so that you can make up your own mind. Who knows, you might become yet another fan of the king of fruits!
