PS CAFE SINGAPORE

WHERE: Paragon Shopping Centre #03- 41/42
290 Orchard Road, SG

WEBSITE: http://www.pscafe.com/#pscafe

There are a few PS CAFE franchises in Singapore. Two years back, I visited the one in Palais Renaissance, which had a nice classy feel with high glass ceilings, which is also located along Orchard.
The place we went to was inside Paragon Shopping mall. I very much liked their waiting system, where you touch type how many seats wanted and your number on the ipad, until called. Why do they not have this in Australia?!

Since we were flying out on this day, we decided to not eat too much considering that was our second or third meal of the day. Crispy onion burger wasn't really a hit, but the sauce that came with the chips were. It was like a lemongrass flavour (lemon-y aioli) to describe. The turkey sandwich was a lot better in favour, rested next to some delicious mixed salad and pieces of cranberry.  So so good! Pricing was a bit much for a standard cafe, but thankfully portions were generous.









Ice long black (without the milk) aka Ice Americano $6 
peach fizz $7.50 


Cafe latte $6.50 








Crispy Onion Burger $29.00 



Turkey Cranberry Sandwich $24.00 
(homemade toasted caraway bread, layered with smoked turkey, grilled cheese, bacon, mayo and cranberry jam, served with flinders mixed salad and cranberry- pumpkin seed pesto. )

NIJI SUSHI KINGSFORD

WHERE: 33 Anzac Parade Kingsford.

WEBSITE: http://nijisushi.com.au/home-2


This is our third time coming to NIJI together. Its best to just order from the cold dishes menu or sushi dishes. This was because, the udon soup is flavourless and bland. Just tastes like hot water with no seasoning. Our favourite dish was called "New Style Sashimi." Everything including the three type of sashimi and flavoured oil, just goes well with each other.

The plum wine is just sweet and tasty. There are also many options on the sushi train.







(TOP) 
Assorted sashimi & sushi: tuna, salmon, kingfish sashimi, assorted nigiri, salmon tartare 21

(BOTTOM)
 Beef tataki: seared beef, ponzu sauce, baby herbs, garlic chips, sea salt, truffle oil 12

Beef tataki would be better being a hot dish, however it wasn't too bad. 






new style sashimi
thinly sliced salmon, tuna, kingfish sashimi with chives, garlic ginger, sesame seed
drizzled with hot flavoured oil & yuzu soy 12.50




Prawn tempura udon
3 pcs tempura prawn, bok choy, wakame, bean sprouts 16

ICE CREAM SANDWICH SINGAPORE

We were on the hunt for these ice cream sandwiches for almost two days!! I was not going to give up hope because I promised myself, that I would get my hands on one of these babies before I leave. Having visited Singapore several times previously, I have never tried the ice cream sandwich due to very long lines and no luck coming across one. 

Luckily on the second or third night of our stay whilst walking along Clarke Quay, we stumbled upon what looked like a push trolley around the corner of Jumbo (Seafood/ Crab Restaurant.) SUCCESS!! 
Right before dinner, I strongly suggested that we should get our hands on one of these ice cream sandwiches before it disappears and I would never get a chance again. The first flavour purchased was corn on sweet soft bread for $1.50 SG dollars. My mother thought it was a bit unhygienic how uncle used the same hand to make the sandwich and collect money. But regardless of that fact, I was keen on trying. 

Over the next couple of days, we came across a few other Ice Sandwich trolleys along Orchard Road. Cute old couple which I have recognised before, priced theirs at $1.20 SG dollars. 

Verdict: I much prefer the wafer over the sandwich. The corn and honeydew flavour was so good. The honeydew tasted like Melona Korean Ice Cream. SO SO GOOD!
