Fun Toast - Welcoming Family Cafe in Singapore

ABBEY: We’ve been here multiple times and I can say that it is one of our go to places for caffeine fix before grocery or after a meal. I got kopi and sometimes their kaya toast set.  They also have other hot meals like laksa, mee siam, yong tau foo, chee cheong fun and siew mai. Specialty teas include honey lemon, honey lime and gula melaka. Fun Toast - Welcoming Family Cafe in Singapore WILL:  It is fun in Fun Toast. Haha! Well, if you want an air-conditioned cafe that serves delicious kopi or yuan yang, you can definitely head to Fun Toast.  This is our go-to cafe every after our weekly grocery. Coffee is cheap, the cafe is clean and relaxing due to their white interiors, and the staffs are friendly.  I totally recommend this for tourists who wants to experience a local cafe here in Singapore. *** Fun Toast (W) https://www.funtoast.com.sg/ (H) 8:00AM to 8:00PM (A) 277 Orchard Road #B2-07/08  Singapore  238858 (T) 6816 2849

Embark on a Flavorful Adventure with Konyo's "Kamayan sa Bukid in Singapore" Buffet!

ABBEY: Imagine going to a province and it’s fiesta. And you can eat as many times as you can. That’s the vibe at Konyo brunch. For SGD 19.9 we enjoyed the lunch platter which includes crackling bagnet, chicken-pork adobo, lumpiang shanghai, pancit canton, tilapia, rice, kangkong, talong and okra. Pair them with kamatis-sibuyas ensalada, spiced toyo-mansi and vinegar and bagoong and you’re set.  We opted selected items only for our second and third servings as we can’t finish another platter. Our Pinoy food cravings were satisfied. We even have kwentuhan (chitchat) with the staff.  Wash them all down with bulalo soup. Wow!

ABBEY:  Dumpling craving hit us again so we booked a table at Yum Cha Changi for dumpling buffet. The ambiance is like an old Chinese restaurant; quartz tables with wooden chairs.  We immediately ordered a serving of roasted pork, pork ribs with garlic, siew mai, and prawn dumpling. In addition to that we also had mushroom dumplings, shrimp beancurd roll and fresh prawn rice flour roll.  We ate to our hearts’ content. It was great experience as the staff keeps on delivering our food to almost no delays. Just keep eating.  Weekday Buffet at Yum Cha WILL:  Eyeing for this dimsum buffet since pre-covid era. They are significantly located at Changi IT District and their signage is prominently inviting for everyone. But Abbey’s office was relocated at Penang and my desire to dine in Yum Cha faded. But the power of social media emerged and the cravings resurfaced and I booked it for monthly date with Abbey.  So how was it? I want to applaud the people of Yum Cha ...
