Club Meatballs

An obsession with chalking up points won me an eating voucher at Club Meatballs. It’s an interesting concept, offering a menu based around meatballs, and not just the beef kind. The restaurant serves meatballs made from beef, pork, chicken, salmon and even vegetarian meatballs. Was able to have meals there on two separate occasions since they didn’t accept my voucher the first time round (it being a public holiday). Hence, we got a try a variety of dishes from the menu.

The Assembly Ground

The Cathay is one of the few shopping centers that is located near my university. It has a small selection of eating places, but I like it because it tends to be quieter than other shopping centers and hence, I’m more likely to find a seat if I need to chill for a few hours.

Humpback

I confess that when J first suggested meeting Humpback for dinner, I had no idea where that restaurant was or that it even existed. Irony of being a food blogger, sometimes, my friends are just more up to date on ‘what’s new’ than me. Despite that, it’s always great to visit a new place in town. 

Market Grill

A few months earlier, I had written about my visit to Meat Smith, the sister restaurant of Market Grill. Though Market Grill has been around for much longer, I have yet to visit the place till now. My first impressions of the place when I walked in was that the concept seemed very similar to Meat Smith. The menu also focused heavily on grilled meats, though Market Grill does offer a seafood section (notably lobster) that stands out. The emphasis here seems to be on the different cuts of the cow and the vibe seems a little more relaxed than Meat Smith (just a little).

Cafe Melba

The girls and I were at Goodman Arts Centre for a pottery session where we learned basic throwing – which is basically how to transform a lump of clay into a recognizable shape using the potter’s wheel. What started as a pretty intimidating session, for me at least, turned out to be really fun. 

Little Diner

Weekday lunches are one of the best luxuries that I get to enjoy now that I’m a student. No rush with the crowds, set lunch prices, leisurely eating (to a certain extent). I think that while I’m looking forward to having a job again next year, this is a part of student life which I will definitely miss. 

Outback Steakhouse

The night before our final, my classmate, E posted this on his page:

“If drinking milk makes you stronger, then eating the animal which makes milk will make you infinitely stronger”.

I commented back:

“Steak after finals tomorrow?”

To which a resounding yup was given.
