SBCD Korean Rice House Suntec Review: The Affordable Korean Meal That Surprised Me

ABBEY: I’ve always been curious about SBCD Korean Tofu House at Suntec City. Every time I pass by, it’s packed with diners no matter the hour, which made me wonder what keeps people coming back. So one evening, I finally gave in and went there for dinner.

I ordered the Pork Bulgogi, and it instantly hit the spot—it’s that familiar Korean flavor I’ve been craving. Instead of rice, I went for spicy noodles, and I’m glad I did. The dish came with tender pork, kimchi, tofu, egg, and pork dumpling, all mixed together in a bowl. It reminded me of those Korean 2x spicy noodles, but with a hearty twist.

The noodles were perfectly al dente, and every component complemented the others beautifully. With teary eyes from the spice yet a happy heart, I finished every bite. It was satisfying, comforting, and full of flavor. I’ll definitely be coming back for more.

WILL: Ever find yourself wondering what to eat or where to eat? Abbey and I don’t usually eat out often, yet even we sometimes face this dilemma. Imagine those who rarely cook at home! Well, this Korean spot at Suntec City left quite an impression on me.

For less than SGD 15, the Pork Bulgogi Rice set comes with perfectly spiced sticky rice and a refreshing yogurt drink—simple, affordable, yet surprisingly fulfilling. Unlike some restaurants that overload dishes with spice to appear “authentic,” here the flavors are thoughtfully composed. I left the stall with a full stomach and a sense of calm, amazed at how a meal can bring such quiet satisfaction.

A quick tip: dinner time is always busy, so plan to arrive early. But trust me, it’s worth it.

$1.90 Bowls?! Kuan Zhai Wan Wan Xiang at Changi City Point — Cheapest Comfort Food You’ll Ever Find!

ABBEY: While exploring Changi City Point, we stumbled upon a Chinese eatery called Kuan Zhai Wan Wan Xiang. And it was quite an unexpected find.

The place operates in a simple, canteen-style setup, somewhat like IKEA’s self-service food hall. You grab a tray, queue up, and choose from a variety of small dishes neatly displayed in mini bowls. It’s quick, casual, and perfect if you love trying a bit of everything.

We picked a few favorites: braised pork with preserved vegetables, mapo tofu, xiao long bao, and shredded chicken noodles. Each order comes with free-flow rice or porridge, which is definitely a plus if you love generous portions.

The mapo tofu stood out for me. It had that authentic Sichuan-style balance of spice and numbing heat from the peppercorns. I actually went for three bowls of rice just to go with it! The braised pork was another highlight, tender and flavorful with just the right amount of savory sweetness.

If there’s one thing I’d suggest, it’s to turn up the steam a little; some of the dishes could be warmer. But overall, it’s a satisfying and affordable meal, with prices ranging from SGD 1.90 to SGD 5.90 per item.

Kuan Zhai Wan Wan Xiang is a great spot if you’re in the East of Singapore and craving authentic, comforting Chinese food without breaking the bank.

$1.90 Bowls at Kuan Zhai Wan Wan Xiang – Changi City Point’s Most Affordable Comfort Food!

WILL: What made me walk straight into this restaurant? The elevated hawker vibe, the super clean and inviting look, and—honestly—the screaming amount of food on display. Bowls starting at SGD1.90 and unlimited porridge or rice for SGD1? That alone made me grab a tray!

Self-serve style pa! It brought back full-on secondary school canteen memories, but with way better food.

My Must-Try Picks
-Mapo Tofu (SGD2.90)
The mala sauce is insane. I could finish one whole cup of rice with just the sauce. Sobrang sarap. No regrets!

-Pork with Preserved Vegetable (SGD3.90)
Huge portion—good for sharing. The pork is tender and super worth its price.

Not My Fave
Pork Xiao Long Bao — dry, so skip this one.

If you love rice (like… A LOT), carbs, and comforting Chinese flavors, you’ll walk out of here smiling and food-happy. Perfect for our protein + carb loading days in The Gentle Reset too.

Go try it! You might end up running to Changi City Point like me.

Massage Therapy for Weight Loss and Stress Relief

Massage Therapy for Weight Loss and Stress Relief

We used to think of massage as a “reward” after a long and busy month — until we learned how much it helps the body actually recover. Now, it’s part of our wellness routine, just like workouts and clean meals.

If you’ve been following our The Gentle Reset weight loss journey, you already know we focus on fat loss, muscle recovery, and lowering bad cholesterol and blood pressure through balanced meals and consistent workouts.

What surprised us most? How regular massage sessions accelerated our progress.

Massage lowers cortisol — the stress hormone that triggers cravings and belly fat. It helps muscles recover faster after HIIT days, reduces soreness, and improves sleep quality (which, let’s be honest, is half the battle in weight management).

So while massage isn’t a magic fix for weight loss, it supports everything that makes results sustainable.

Every time we lie on that massage table, stress levels drop, blood circulation improves, and your happy hormones — serotonin and dopamine — rise. It’s your body’s reset button. Believe it or not. Haha! 

Studies show it lowers anxiety and supports long-term mental well-being — which matters when you’re staying consistent with a fitness plan.

When your body feels safe and relaxed, your hormones balance, your cravings stabilize, and your motivation returns.

Massage isn’t just for spa days anymore — it’s part of a modern wellness lifestyle.

For us, it’s become a quiet but powerful ally in our The Gentle Reset journey — helping us heal, reset, and keep going with clarity and calm.

Because wellness isn’t just about losing weight. It’s about feeling light inside and out. 💆‍♀️✨
