Best restaurants in Bangkok 2022<p>Bangkok is indeed a shoppers paradise and also a widely recognized food city to satisfy the appetites of foodies from around the world. Before I visited Thailand, I did a lot of research on the must try food in Bangkok, compiled them up with my good friend in Thailand Jule and also managed to meet up with famous Singapore food blogger expert of Thailand cuisine Aroi Mak Mak to go on some food hunts and café hopping. This is my tried and tested food guide that will bring you to the best food Bangkok has to offer! You will also get tips on where to stay and recommended tours</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnXg0vo6OCQm9OrsKNFrAWBZStCg2c1wzNgxP1bEwhBjvMQM0vIW6Uf9WVNtMDiw_8jnvMKyIbuqmLUgRVA0yHClo47k4ro6pH1fkgOiPmyqKsPeonV2LWN3ALf2kZ1u1SqnSKKg/s1600-h/DSCF1634%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B6%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="525" title="DSCF1634 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF1634 (Medium)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiIIdaqMXKdInO4XKJwLJRYGP5ojV8ASbL7E41loA8xOEngZeA24NbHLDotSiFqa-XOwKph3shK8JjvSyJSdjng7Xpn3IAEpyDs_tBrTwlX9rOhTEea71XgfbY3nbsbKnG_eLDS8g//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>I have to say – eating about 120+ dishes in a space of 5 days in Bangkok for research purposes can be pretty tiring. What I realized is that quite a few of the so called must try food recommended by some websites can be misleading. Imagine my disappointment when I tasted some highly recommended stalls which turned out to be average or plain at best – but the amount of time and effort for me as a tourist to search for such places – simply not worth it. Perhaps it’s a matter of one’s preference and taste but it’s good knowledge for my write up on Bangkok food. </p> <p align="center"><br></p> <h2>Getting around in Bangkok</h2> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjh_Ra3yvADPqh18oQT-g3WhJtwpjJy5up44T_Ytob-8OqTfcs7LEDRCS2zPgmUdaPrvTDDvlfByNv4u6CInqZMrG-bpupxJFhChfvaOHeOqPe4bdR9xn-50fsCuhTyMdgzMQ8JGw/s1600-h/DSCF0988%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="525" title="DSCF0988 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0988 (Medium)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiehmtpwpuStrr1o3GykvyDi80eUfbW0dnFd7XZxB1l2FjqaGfHmPQTeIiASizuFCHBnw1b5sFCrsrVEPQL2qxuRuxeKiRbv40gjWWcKNMchwmWA7TLI3LP3O80by32CIR-NCleKQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Getting around in Bangkok to find food is not as easy as other countries. First of all there’s heavy traffic, then there’s taxi drivers who don’t speak good English and are out to SCAM if you’re a tourist. I’ve heard many horror stories of people paying over the odds because they were scammed by taxi drivers. Have no fear – if you are firm and you have a smart phone (loaded with mobile internet) – you can use GPS to guide the taxi driver where to go – just <strong><font color="#ff0000">MAKE SURE they turn on their meter</font></strong> – if they refuse – get off the taxi immediately. Do not compromise or negotiate with them. If they’re unwilling to turn on the meter – you know they won’t be very honest with you – only go for those who turn on the meter. Alternatively you can take GRAB or Tuk Tuks. I personally taken Grab Bike when I was desperate because I was in a rush and it’s the fastest mode of transport to pass through traffic jams! It will be a big bonus for you to learn how to use the<strong> BTS Sky Train</strong> <strong>or MRT </strong>as it’s the best mode of transport during heavy peak hour traffic! <br><br><br></p><h3 align="center">Where to stay in Bangkok</h3><p align="center"><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1LWJwfgYG17A7plPpa9KGYSaileoBfavo"><img width="5120" height="3837" title="IMG_20190907_145658" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20190907_145658" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=13cYfn5f7OgEGF6PSIUSWLkIGh1GO2S60" border="0"></a></p><p>I personally travelled to Bangkok many times and my biggest tip is to always stay near BTS and if there’s a nearby MRT nearby that’s an added bonus. I personally feel any hotel in between Asok station and mrt sukhumvit station is a good location especially if you want to avoid the Bangkok traffic.

Some had to wait an hour to get a table. </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1IvQJMkIMlSZRs753H2m3B1Dkor79FF-Tgv61Yh1AC6-K2OLhKavx0m0049YfGVkc82v_HrKOp8dfz-qvUkFmSAdtNod5AHUKGqDWjI_pLz7hzN8kBRvk_8oYPa4JSG8ZZFLWGA/s1600-h/DSCF1329%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="350" height="262" title="DSCF1329 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF1329 (Medium)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQfe472f_5ZhfEa57Wpb-JPxzNtzApUuTuR6jxraGv5yYM-e_uo01UzxnL3wBugGI2F5k7KnMiMvytvTruufIpqeJS6iP6b9Mlr0JF9mOsSnuDJBhmfi2A7iESIoXp3LoYCmTr2g//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQJICqSda80lI_Ls7SA4N2pTO-kj0ZYR-ECu0qAf7JiiVlhs0TtiLNFTHN3g9UL9vUo_Uuf9SqxSuaqgERuVQGqh5Xt3d90URwj5IXsNdfuDsq3yZphQb5AWp5S0ijFE9Z_EblNw/s1600-h/DSCF1317%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img width="350" height="262" title="DSCF1317 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF1317 (Medium)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDUGiM81IGKgCtTKFK4agmqqzIXNEwH0sQ60kmbSO-Yy1IBvam5-f0VSy18fA8GZHKgoc02H6egq6ICUvICfrkrMsrWTAMui11KJxMmPx4REcYFJMS6ndRuJhLyIDG9kBYaUJylg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>We ordered their other dishes such as the baked prawns in glass noodles as well as their fried fish which were average.

One of the funniest surprise was when I was researching for the best Thai Style Oyster Omelet – Nai Mong Hoy Tod was the MUST TRY Oyster Omelet in Bangkok – it’s located around Chinatown area but when I tried it – I was utterly disappointed – since I needed to take a taxi to find the place. The good news for you all is that – MBK food court has quite a good Oyster Omelet – way better than the famous Nai Mong. </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjco8N7Qxx6Bau-VERP0lPCD0lWt2OajUVc-ZDWmYbSq9jNcdhUSdYHAtoLFZY1Okij58g8mD4hPAos69eUW8HwDilH79_RDpoEIuw_BXAOoOnJowaDLK13LR_8nWkg3l7plclrKA/s1600-h/DSCF0992%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="525" title="DSCF0992 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0992 (Medium)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbI_b4rxKbYKy4AgE36dZrOCAwV78oTjQew_9okkIDO-PCARSutcSBVzswMqkaHoxwWB4EI7oI1wRlOcSj53iZ6mblvi9OiECQG41yvGZXrBiVSfGT9EsS2Ho8K_1Ag-rgG_5VQg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>No need to go to Nai Mong Hoy Tod for Oyster Omelet – just go MBK food court and you’re good to go! </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgG4-lK99DDKsVYjG3sl5IgI3Mk37vTWcrkeRb-hbY-cPhX0ez8gZVeSvMu8I5KTDPYtmLXID8Al2pdTaSHC9bVNg3xYm9OutQ1GkbUZMp2iWd4vzNXpYcMohUeA6QPB45SGO94Og/s1600-h/DSCF1003%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="350" height="262" title="DSCF1003 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF1003 (Medium)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1XtRSuLeAKDsMGSoJ9-mN4tR_IIaTpB8jlHD0BP_oZ0LJYyeNSBU-ojAafBpSgJ4pj67f3vxglU9DU1tl0-lbweemumAWQKEROmvsd_XTVXLfF7ULFD-YYxCExK21-OzvvOQetA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6tjpxYe56O1KfTQ3Tcl-_03VKxdS-UFhIlZtaFfXgICInoj7Kg4IRY6NsP1ArFJQgukrA-hepa5wwg46oPB6GVDymab6EWLIsVXtAgsYJmbXmBGuIWE_QZoamInzp2wS00SYBUw/s1600-h/DSCF0993%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="350" height="262" title="DSCF0993 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0993 (Medium)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxi05pDBzyRJD3xcl0XfYxAN1nYF_fmbPOdR9Fpsip9C0YBgrxpK-VAwxwyhwmHUMTuWi8BD0_iVMf_lOb0I-mfMI7NHVP8YTFVTiW5rL9DCI7jpCMtDdOCAkvbijBT6s-lGwapw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Crab meat, dumplings and char siew noodles to the left and pad thai on the right.

I chose Thip Samai restaurant which is famous for Pad Thai because there are quite a few restaurants that are nearby making it easier for you to do restaurant hopping. To get to Thip Samai – tell the taxi driver “Prathu Phi Pad Thai” and try not to say Mahacai or they will get confused and bring you somewhere very far out of town!

The reason is their head chef jay Fai, who does not skimp on ingredients and she is the only chef cooking – which can take quite a bit of time if there’s a crowd. Still despite the price, you will find lots of people flocking here for a taste of Jay Fai’s cooking! </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCEfPp0dOw9YClUu6jLor_G_g9FBjpBMPA4Nl4G36YkAqB2ht-yLAVg2JEW_P-hRvyBycZW-gDrj7n3g-ZaS6eE6WtcN1IMfd2__jmuJWbri_shgatgEbLMOvIlQ3elg_DN100ow/s1600-h/DSCF1081%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="525" title="DSCF1081 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF1081 (Medium)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtO_qB18xbgK6HigdQfRj4gUoPEzZbjmNwSJrHxXcGfvbkPSDXK65irF6qHdyicq3sPoRsUC7gnNDbfp3iuxeELQr55cNsD57NOJ5TklqOt69iTRYuas8F3qp9ZCc06MCGWLBTpA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>The chef Jay Fai is quite a masterchef, wears full make up as well and using these two charcoal fire stoves – and at different temperatures to help with her cooking.

She throws in a generous portion of squid, jumbo prawns and crab meat into the mix. I must say when I had a few bites – I coughed from the intensity of the flavours! My friend Jule explained to me that Drunken noodles basically means intense flavours till you can feel it or get drunk from it!

Hailed by many as one of the must try restaurants before you die – that’s a pretty bold statement. The owner of Krua Apsorn has worked in the Royal Palace for many years as a personal chef to the royalties and this is shown in the quality of the dishes. They have several branches but I recommend going to the original branch in Samsem Road near the National Library. There’s usually a queue at this place so I actually went early and arrived before they open to ensure I get a good seat! </p> <p align="center"><br></p> <p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDETQ4S6eH7vHthDyrnxBAX3ZozcCEqq_LZ9oor25dxWxLojQcg68LLWtRy_bJtwXJaZnWmhLieeKIXrQ3v2R8tkb5hOk90GnqkLMM_tq6AvJiezCrxp25k8KaOi2PdV22Gg-E5A/s1600-h/DSCF4815%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="525" title="DSCF4815 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF4815 (Medium)" src="http://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ej9bp06G-Pg/VctKHqSmHqI/AAAAAAAAdC0/HBW3oVSi8Vc/DSCF4815%252520%252528Medium%252529_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p align="center">Lump Crab stir fried with yellow chilies is an epic heavenly dish especially for those who don’t like to pick out the crab meat themselves – look at those gorgeous gigantic chunks of crab!

Pretty good Oyster Omelet here as well as some other good dishes that you’re sure to enjoy - note that the place is not the cleanest place and service is not their strong point but the food is worth the trouble.

Tourism has been booming for South Korea for the past 10 years and it’s no surprise that it’s become a top food destination in Asia. When I visited Seoul for our honeymoon in Dec 2016, I was there for two weeks, trying out lots of Korean Street Food, their restaurants as well as the cafes. I did quite a lot of research online as well as recommendations from my Korean friends before going there and tried my best to sample as much as possible so I can write the Seoul Food Guide: The best places to eat in Seoul! This guide will include mostly places where locals recommend – the local gems as well as some good popular tourist favourites which I’ve tried and enjoyed. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhz-u3ZaVFt7KCnJOlEpaK-XQoX8GEU9EBsI6Vy5bfIAlxaTO8yAmEIXGDmVWtGCRz-eyBHhcPHtlNuRAKO8moph694rn6QiQDTVWac56DE3rBwEzOSlhXpVhKRnQyuVFJan1or/s1600-h/PhotoGrid_1507193254374%255B4%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="PhotoGrid_1507193254374" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="PhotoGrid_1507193254374" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsTUT7bMuVFfWcxJnozZEQ5AZyJvoGyv1pRkVdUJOaB729AsuRlfQ8DNj3VmNoP_NnLD_YzektlbmzSUiSwDH0m8xc1fyp9Iuw3dIsyijyAZPhBkAFTfSdldFJWOfIlT5VhJji//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>It was no surprise to me when I posted an Instagram story on what is the next city I should write about and Seoul was the overwhelming choice, beating even Tokyo! This Seoul Food Guide will share what are my favourite places to eat in Seoul and what are the must eat Korean delicacies! I personally tasted the food and will recommend you some of the best Korean food you can eat! It will be a good mix of the popular tourist food spots as well as hidden gems recommended by the locals! </p><p><br></p><h2>Where is a good location to stay in Seoul?</h2><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghyphenhyphenZvGyjlrhnRP1uWtjI2zTV40Jwk0GmXZbWQXkTzJuGq4C0vyAINTdELuRV9ul3AAdeQ8FfOp-p2glrLGoqZz-SI_LvWnFLmLhl-Rp8C1N3Yy-kQsKeqKAShecqAn7n3MiVX5/s1600-h/DSCF0827%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0827" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0827" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc2MT8w3tB3-DIzPKS3n5PGRWmrZKEtR-xpON333hW0OYpOFDrIL5ttf0mJu8n5_lGEqYvLbjD3lyq_RPv7eUpKny3AzWoGK2G8WXzf90a6EqH-UcVgNqixe0I4CDyz15UZmr7//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>If you want to choose a location to stay in Seoul, my recommendation is to choose any hotel or apartment that is within 5-10 minutes walking distance to Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station. It is a very central location and it has 3 main subway Line 2, Line 4 and Line 5 passing through it. Since subways are the most convenient and cheapest way of getting around Seoul, staying near this station will make your travel very convenient! This area should be slightly more affordable than popular places like Myeongdong, Hongdae, Jung-gu, Jongno-gu, and Gangnam-gu. As long as you pick one of these locations, it should be fine. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1gT3xeV_9A_MvmZo7UThGL36jsqU4zO_L-8oiq-4ddWdsMD6K0jbQ15vwT0YzRgxQUvkMZesfZSLjEYVoZxQrTf0cGC7vNuFqdcLC1wHKN8tTyBnA8kcsiAtgz1zooYVb4T1h/s1600-h/IMG_20161224_225903%255B5%255D"><img width="1024" height="768" title="IMG_20161224_225903" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20161224_225903" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbZ_edR0NYbpztjiSdVSfYSWNZCX2OhYwWD-1CQqelwTYTfzWqKPjX2V-ib0rrGwY4HtQaxrJLhbaA-a2wMb6A6SvUomTf3j8LF8DMqmBKuiRbHBU04jLI6PIFdosPlPIbQQ-g//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Another good reason to stay in Dongdaemun is the abundance of 24 hour restaurants and shops that are located in Dongdaemun as it is a famous location for midnight shopping. After a whole day’s tour and sight seeing, after putting your stuff at your hotel, the night is still young in Dongdaemun and you will never be short of places to have supper and shop even after midnight! </p><p><br></p><h2>Getting from Incheon Airport to Seoul Central</h2><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6sgk2FY5NxT7_Y6On8GHFexa4aVchXFlEL3ifAbia5pl754hktXNMzSJn2Bzybp5WJsEbf9cCKr4nzy9k2M6wW8WpK2LGfYuj-hk5xoTChnGUX_jQlTue9_1faEFAgjHqJuzn1Q/s1600-h/WhatsApp+Image+2018-05-31+at+12.09.18+AM%255B4%255D"><img width="1268" height="763" title="WhatsApp Image 2018-05-31 at 12.09.18 AM" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="WhatsApp Image 2018-05-31 at 12.09.18 AM" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAYTG_efNuH0r0EXFWpyKyaZ7m9RXOmK0VVYAlhLdPvYBTVX83DdYy2Z8haKE6oendTpoyH94b8FDRp0KjW1ufQim6ZZHn_LTQ89Q5nKgPOMlu2xOQbeRfPeHES9gWFtjUDWWn6w//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>The airport is about 45 minutes to one hours++ ride depending if you take the express or the normal metro. It’s very convenient to get the Airport express ticket! Just show the QR code from mobile or printed ticket to the counter. The staff will ask which timing you wanna take the train and you are ready to go! I personally would get the Airport express ticket online as there’s a discount. <a href="https://affiliate.klook.com/jump/activity/1163-airport-to-seoul-city-center-arex-train-incheon/?adid=20139&af_wid=2385" target="_blank">Click here to book it online for your convenience.</a> </p><p><br></p><h2>Get a T-Money Card or Seoul City Pass Plus Card at the Airport</h2><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLilWErhonYtApm8X3LehNEZIMMWoNhXd6Gxx_hwg2YGuFyu4kJMm9hq2VGNioLLvHDBuUWpsbraBDD5mNkXq9nfpjE3y1fEBbj5hvJyKhyphenhyphenHsDsEMf3-uJyti1DuNMoQeir48f/s1600-h/WhatsApp+Image+2017-10-10+at+8.34.58+PM%255B3%255D"><img width="960" height="1101" title="WhatsApp Image 2017-10-10 at 8.34.58 PM" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="WhatsApp Image 2017-10-10 at 8.34.58 PM" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBbv3nPe0feugIRE_gcvCd-ZuaETHIOsKbQQOZCTvx-NKJ6FJnbOd2Qqz75hGAcbPmUq3rDimEyBPc5eclTHe8-OfLtYjuWmEYtuml8S_O-p1Hb3VeRZ7S_ma6swxN_CUweWoC//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Get any of these at any GS25, Family Mart, and MINISTOP convenience stores at the arrival hall of Incheon Airport while collecting your data sim. T-Money is a convenient card for paying for subway and convenience stores. I had a funny expensive lesson of topping up 40 USD and dropped my card on the subway – so be sure to hold on tight to them. I will list what are the nearest subway stations and their exits to the restaurants and markets mentioned in this guide. Google Maps will be your best friend – I find the easiest way is to copy the English address and paste onto Google Maps to search instead of the names of the restaurants.</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-yETWLuEHZRg/Wd16zsEYkoI/AAAAAAAAvis/o5dNLMNbR-cL2uYyMhWhsRJFKLnMN1uTwCHMYCw/s1600-h/20161217_221343%255B9%255D"><img width="1365" height="768" title="20161217_221343" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="20161217_221343" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLqKCG87RYGV-3cvhtJrmaj5Ps7XNoZmCVzgLD55OPAIcs-4XgeY-uSE4d9rjCLWtCIQizSLYNmKslfdo1pk6R8TBz4szBUM3vDvE2J7EX_hF6U4D5HI6AcFdNPJXt6wK7Vb4oyA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Taking the subway is very easy in Seoul compared to other cities – it’s pretty affordable too as taxis and uber is not cheap here as with typical metropolitan cities!</p><p><br></p><h2>Money Exchange</h2><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJPnRumJiYIg_FFabF9nLoEP7nF1-z4Rx3_5s5BZoQl6gYMtDw7rq6pRER_MfYq8BHN5WGBz251heDIBmIJQAVtDfs3l3TXBwqPBs8hNca6v9_HyddlHCkhQiAHEJQ0GHEC9f9/s1600-h/20161217_144738%255B9%255D"><img width="1365" height="768" title="20161217_144738" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="20161217_144738" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSRqIDKBrDCAH4WApOS22z6a3Rv34718aPWBjoThHWO6WR_igCkbAO6HOZNnJ5BqltN_Vy6dJjmpR0SbPAb8Em4-7ZYnAjuZhJGFSVOPDzhIwxrHcq9QiaxMZ61HXQlAy3V1JK//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>The most popular place to change your money is actually conveniently located around Myeong-dong!

The meat was actually pre-cooked a little bit then added to the hot stones. They will then help you cut up the meat into slices as you enjoy it by wrapping them with the side dishes using the lettuce leaves.

The Koreans are definitely experts in fried chicken – super crispy and flavoursome that once you tried them you will be hooked! One issue I have with Korean Fried Chicken places is that they usually sell them in big portions – so it would be difficult to try as many types of fried chicken in one go! I noticed that lots of Koreans like to have chicken and beer with their co-workers as a bonding session! The popular ones here are BHC and Two Two Chicken (classic style fried chicken) and they both have their distinct characteristics. Personally I like BHC better because of their modern flavours such as cheese or spicy cheese but Two Two Chicken is a must try too! </p><p><br></p><h2>BHC Chicken or known as Better and Healthier Choice Chicken. </h2><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiId0bbknx9W2Av8cRIr4jpHW1tE-C7psz5TJfs7DMbNRH9FUaAcgNc3QfahFw9u0fwAHsLgFBLq9u_1rzL9TK7xfQ-ZGCVAfzndu2U0Q_y3sNOeLzip5DGDheRqzUDxwsTqv2f/s1600-h/DSCF0641%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0641" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0641" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-jf6NFXRYQUdrg2gTi-YjnsNMrpvQ9OAwrl-rPd7ZhSxiugzQNFDOHyiizJGZOK-XMs8Jw-i3C6V8U2Q136nfsLeOucCeQXFU_7uQhxWdBUc8_WTWOmUooMtYp3ysNlVNqYPh//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Seriously though – I don’t understand why they are called Better and Healthier Choice Chicken as having fried chicken sprinkled with flavoured powder or Korean style sauces, while drinking beer is the furthest thing from being healthy but I love it here!

This black sauce noodles have strong Chinese influence and is normally enjoyed with Tangsuyuk (sweet and sour pork) as the perfect combo! When I came to Seoul, my mission was to find good Jjangmyeon and I visited a few recommended places like the famous Gaehwa and Gimgane but I wasn’t overly impressed. Fortunately for me, my wife used to study in Seoul for 6 months and took me to her favourite Jjangmyeon near her university ~ and I think that’s one of the best places for Jjangmyeon. </p><p><br></p><h2>Jeong Chinese Restaurant</h2><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhcwjrBxrUUZwjrVn_jt9ynbeRKivgJESVEh0GTDhIyXNI52eToh2MHBsM_NOYPbfxinqkmpXzmg3Bmnosn6vGhgbg0pQc8ZOsU9O7JOoBwSVDttlPca4sEWDppKKtvU6gYeKr0/s1600-h/jung3%255B4%255D"><img width="1105" height="605" title="jung3" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="jung3" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEioPffncKrvLvJ9ABCHuqCLhn1AXE1nrz468RLAyOLOGFqj-yl2PdNpciJ_NbYwf3DjPXBTN8xYuu-iEoIx89EzbBex4rDL7DCmdXuUNHKC1wibc8Iwh1QTRvHwJpS61cOgI2vs//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>When my wife brought me to this place, I noticed that it was packed with Koreans and they don’t have English on the menu, so we ordered by pointing at the pictures!

Throngs of tourists flock this area and you normally would need to queue so I advise you to go during non-peak hours or risk queueing for a long time! They specialize in Kalgutsu knife cut noodles in soup with Kyoja (kinda like potstickers or gyoza), steamed mandu, bibim guksu (spicy noodles), and kongguksu (noodles in cold soybean soup). </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibng8rC3iSOhKWxAX6L0xC9gU3PI_FGWOqgtoYxAQ4U3dx37dppLFMwvIMyc6ClILw4heZkCFysxLFWq-BvQOSR8QFtprRXse18upoxBpSfNsIuxDUwPBpNz6mP1sp5tRR9hbk/s1600-h/DSCF9572%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF9572" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF9572" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyoaseNjZDwop5f8eTl8ktz4WwJjBRteUDJK0-kcqIkPxwkObPDhGjWufVmXQGUgbA-hPfxaUpfAtI3-bZqvIxoAAVSe1YTxV-ITgbrEdGQFXf2HiicScwNUYR_zVNRuSdb3Rd//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>I’ll be honest here and while the knife cut noodles and gyoza’s not bad – I prefer the ones in Gwangjang market ~~ </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5V9lMtQhGhJUOrS1Z5MQ4lUKjFPqlUutbASwgvg1Pwy8vDEMsCX4M5N6Fof97tL7kyeyoBWnMNwAvI5EFNZ6ov38_cRMTwGAm8lal08JL13jmBXniMM7Mjb01YTDVNw0ufsxz/s1600-h/DSCF9575%255B11%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF9575" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF9575" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNXBe7BXCFaL524jWUnA18g-K9wsxMSBNAmcYJF5Gl3-8SWng_kCVDtwAdhjS2oy0kQNqHKUmjUceEuFmvf5DX3Cm03UxnLHgWNRL2c1vXljCwuy51T7Mp3HOQaeH0z1YwITx1//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>The main reason Myeongdong Kyoja is in my list is because they have the most delicious kimchi!

You can probably skip the pajeon (Korean Pancake) as it as not fantastic. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZnNjgDztvOVUFPoz0q5PuDluBLwI9TKVMQZ2UK8xVteR6-6L0RNKJ9JGrhOEQuB9ERiV2mT7JzYK5JZNtN9duBnOOwNMiPJDSc33hGcWp9o0fZTD8v4wxfOWk8qeF8d-LIMFv/s1600-h/20161221_120327%255B15%255D"><img width="1365" height="768" title="20161221_120327" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="20161221_120327" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhHR3J47l4iZtzMJU2-SV6RTCdMRqVUjUY6gT2hxBt7u5asi4KRNKAjZsHBeebRBbhFlkxLyMbOkitN5GJcRwGu04OOC4BaePMnJ94pRM3nRjigG0xqZjDgzXXWo-VEadsZ7dI//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>It is interesting to watch them make Mandu live from the window, and also kimchi making on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays.</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQpFMkD03ST2hekLMRmTYk2OSDquVoH_9cokSVDIqw-NcR5lteG_-TEEx0IlvC6oyJPGDJ95cDi9kcwuKNAs50Ergl0LU3dEGWcE6llB08eyDVy83QIgPKvK8drfs4t3nivcqu/s1600-h/DSCF0665%255B14%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0665" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0665" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVyq1e48mF2ai6NypHAubtLuAgmmEIAATRnRAmqbf_vtIfesFXD9nbSSbnAx0MhlWAdJIt5_BoB3LFpL5WQllwCtAujCex3yaaIml4-1do3v0R1yEov9fuXbZV7f_M1uOpliqg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Look at the size of that dumpling!

During winter, the floors are heated so sitting down Korean style is welcome. You might meet a rowdy and loud table of Korean guys having a great time and lots of makgeoli bottles beside them!

People sometimes add plain rice or noodles as well to the mix while cooking to enhance the experience! </p><p><br></p><h2>Yoogane Dakgalbi</h2><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhC2q76VZTX3mkRBWfT1EEOma-yPktzchtJXZFAJXMoQTKl4vRH1aV5T5Hm2UCPGoR0UowRLu2f9f-l25JXn9e10CQx-EIfoEz7vWlMMWKEqEji7u7Gn_S4Ihf662w3nORhINmm/s1600-h/DSCF1724%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF1724" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF1724" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrSEiizGaYl1tTbq2SKIE1tmz4qqBmol9KaHlsAp0nDghUJ1xWB1P0lo91fl04A0tDLEptf_QBW0UVDMSVeKEminfnvtlqEddJStZTPoqhxstQIBDIsSmTolDfM2IFSo_RdCzu//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Yoogane is a restaurant specialized in Dakgalbi and has branches all around the world so you might have tried this at your own country before – that’s why there’s quite a variety of combinations you can order at Yoogane – add cheese – add noodles or rice – add beef or seafood ~~ you name it ~~ I decided to have the chicken and octopus combo here ~~</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOS19soBGk9PqM_I69OPmFwVbHbldsrhuXa1RyJZJ_fvpuAIEcbq-rxV2TtONdIO8xZLsPiaJ2Zjgv_1csxoG5SwaVp-gSj_3ht5ASKryeaF9jTU9oJDPRUGO3j0AOBw6LYjtT/s1600-h/DSCF1738%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF1738" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF1738" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqomYId6AjtEXyZrLF3ApePDA6RQw5YqS76zjsFbR1bkv9HPR2JZccVfncaZPS5eUS9JwNznux0-yQ7jjBnixS2bj4ldZC3SduCDFqB72xzmvIwubVPAtI-69tyKlixHQ5VcUV//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Mmmm ~~~ I’m sooo hungry thinking about my last dakgalbi experience ~~ *drools*</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidAXDofsMVtJl9M5R-DLzEIXxoPsF706V9sOfzP2mILR8jPC8ZwIKg-jHRFnAf-bdzTceZoxh0c1rk1sE876GtH5Lb9xaQSQDtKc5cXKPu31a15bJxmSGesBhCGMJQXhR-6A4W/s1600-h/DSCF1749%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF1749" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF1749" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn3Wz7C5FvlVUz-pxB7FKHrhBsi49VqsamqSDhhIQv7xuMc_hyshyphenhyphenmtEgIZP_cgPoMNUha93hXG2RLSkFGwB44eAFZHScpwQZq3xHpDOXc9ThnUGikshUYnkUHtEutgzKUkEdS//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Mmmm cheese strings flavoured by the spicy Korean paste ~~ mmm ~~~ on hindsight I should had ordered more cheese to make it even better!! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhP8Umwgoy5HML_cw7CygIIZu-fFX8234_XtQUIGBXXuwDhQJZkQtSliRlCSkJRYhVwUKbIfMeHFIZ0fh7u07Ip9w50KWH_XTW_I7Gh9WNvgN1ebHlyqFyePZt_YZtd5czo2fix/s1600-h/DSCF1750%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF1750" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF1750" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJCU3fcwWD-yfMCf-3EU1_VKANF7cgwbp1yXbYX-cxVSJ4FVD3Tt30ke9K0t7GDScCs-B6u7lFMtI8qlftOjXHToI59LsSs2oVeUNr0oxRpDndreWeJoMhkC-1KJOBwWrR7X9p//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>I didn’t get to visit the famous Chuncheonjip Dakgalbi Makguksu but you can check that out as well to compare. </p><p><br></p><h3>Yoogane Dakgalbi (Just google map any nearby location to you!)</h3><h3>5, Jangchungdan-ro 13-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul 04564, South Korea (Dongdaemun 24 hour branch)</h3><h3>Dongdaemun History and Culture Park Station Exit 14</h3><p><br></p><h3>Chuncheonjip Dakgalbi Makguksu (I didn’t get to try this but it is highly recommended)</h3><h3>1 Yonsei-ro 5ga-gil, Sinchon-dong, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, South Korea</h3><h3>Sinchon Station exit 1</h3><p><br><h2>KKO KKO Chun Cheon Dakgalbi (Halal)</h2><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuu6JPbDrMXWbb7YfqIP4-STJvBZLwB1oWIBd6ptM1VrtJclLDHWnaykSAuqi3MVYNBhNf_b-xzg0tV03hQWZQBEAhlrerP8NEKDEf7QHNgfWcr7RwPl-zV1vOJ-SNyoIWYIuI/s1600-h/DSCF0386%255B9%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0386" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0386" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0Kjf6g3zCK3xMx0n2KjPhz1nyXWLE3vRDh1RujZqvBHCTLfLF0OW1SyA7K_PDcdopSzC-TAvbzVqSFL55WBqcBpA-3i9BREBX78hbTdQbaxReJQ2PIuYBnf3xuzHM05ZQ2Num//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Now if you are in Seoul, you will definitely grab a tour to Nami Island – and right there is a very good Dakgalbi place that is halal called Kko Kko Chuncheon Dakgalbi.

The owner herself is a nutritionist apparently and uses natural ingredients as much as possible. I quite like the side dishes here and while they have less choices than bonjuk – the overall quality of the porridge is better here. It’s located on the 2nd floor and around Insadong near all the tea houses. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4B0jGNyuP-zv45ryRMZqQu6X5OOzaqOVUNRix4lvXhCIrzLCy54TwzOXaO_lXl_8vrQVKSmPxolIQhHgzjqhsEOoOtbATRHtDafD67jHUlxKSxiXwiG5b0MMr9pKUI1rUJvAw/s1600-h/DSCF0793%255B9%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0793" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0793" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0_M3DEybNo7ggEkOIhxU6i6goWY-G8u24NkZDRUk0Qukj_MGG5C13ovorQCEA6QqtAGBYzbvoC9ihXPftVQDAT3-qlUdT8X2VTbBAJrarwQFXbQfbGB8EKOZBeyWKGlEOZjVF//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Ambience is very down to earth like your home ~~ they have chairs and also Korean style squat seating. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3y8SL4oaTdoOrm1FyR4T6AxXatkehVGxZqVY7ohPyr4zuhSH2Mhd1YUyf4SP5V4BsMbZNHMJYAIJ4t5t5AHaG9OErbH-J5k_nOUdOBt9mDQtsOhw8-qtDA0EBGRzXYUnetjPh/s1600-h/DSCF0803%255B12%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0803" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0803" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPRKxnYhfd4BGIqcW_gCeFy0jwDpfCqOi28jKZ-igovBYs6u4Wx2m4r6DGKVCejYTz8LtLZ2clryeBUisV4knQBE96bTZbH6wJABNX-nnuz8HMIAKkM9c6g4OD5NDXZl1vjf1J//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>I feel much better trying the abalone porridge here and I’m assured of the quality.

When my Korean friend introduced me to Haejangguk also known as Hangover soup called The Real Haejangguk, which was open for 35 years already – I was very excited to know that it opens 24 hours a day and it is near my airbnb apartment in Dongdaemun! They say this is a soup to cure hangovers so it must be a very nutritious soup! You will see that they have two types of delicious Kimchi here ~~ the cabbage and the cubed raddish type … Kimchi is pretty good here so thats a good sign of thing to come! There’s also spicy paste to heat you up! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisUuZPuPJFKNImMAZpd2hV1dgaiV9eezZaZ6FYQeERViMk_7mfrZhStUxZJvDFS57qmoN4ch-0V4R5mCJ4rV4Ni_fJzWGGlOGRCxj03YrQ3Som_fjWpEa-GUPpBVV9zNkdKsx9/s1600-h/DSCF0353%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0353" style="border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0353" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQn5CkLkTx5g5ZbvuMgrdeTJI6f4voaDy1D45A97ey8ti9GXqAcvOVL3hhNUFo8hk3w-C4EXynhqwQeOZQpnaof1KmxRbhXWuV29B0SGkgfPnhSK943D7xKDgF8Sn66O4lge4R//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>You can choose either shredded beef or beef ribs.

The problem with this place is that they don’t speak English and no English menu as well so we merely pointed here and there to order! We ordered their naengmyeon cold noodle and hand made dumplings. Initially I thought the broth was beef or pork as I noticed it’s dark meat but as I taste it I realized it’s the better part of the chicken ~ the slighter darker meat.

It’s basically a metal box filled with rice, meat and kimchi, with an egg. The key is to actually close the lid and shake hard to mix it well. Dosirak is like an old school lunch box for kids. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-pmqHTY0zjH_3dD1B9kxF00eKO8OnH2r6YqpCrxb4Jz7GGWNaREA_qn8ZHCdo5UpgOFEG3wBHFu418sKyAdj0bOUbad4N5D0iDfoQ27EdSoDHkHydXmTr3dAy0sOKD9zrPxdXFQ/s1600-h/DSCF0773%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0773" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0773" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmCV1OMlq2Gebd0tuQ_oMDuAAaopoFpQbxJsxaUG-C_EUvgsr0eLhhEN08By4xQ1KRuVxNiM_1jLuZ7Httnx3I7E6xd7jv2XsEFgRFd7z-3LYjGN5BMQ7bjm99bo2qjgMNUKFcBQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>I also try out their odeng with tteobokki stew. Overall I think the food here is something you try once just for the experience but you wouldn’t crave for it. Experience wise is unique but taste wise it’s forgettable. Still – it’s something I would recommend to try just to get a feel of it. Though I did read that their desserts like bingsus and Korean style cakes are lovely so you can check them out too. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9nfPs7kRVv2SfKYOaeUzDvlPjWVtsBjPqL8dOA_dMkP0GlLhVmZX3vG9EITqW6Poidhd_eeWHSfE9xfPJXApEce1pyyCqX5dJRKDXU6Z81q2Thfdw-HWbWrFZMsjXElT7md186A/s1600-h/DSCF0771%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0771" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0771" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggYtMwnxp5P4X51SBAbujDNaH4gESYCyrAtIVFOAx8m2aon58tUWY35IQHuTsJZ9BcQIHvHT2D9YF_zN_sozWZZuSFIZZLwS8v6P-MxyHhGKfAeEr_jll69MmQbkIXQ3QqcEnHSQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGisfDo9xkFMkudzezTzW2f2P1JQjRJOh7sKCBz_3VhoBSOCh_OuoR1ognswLbr5Gg8q0g68qX3rtZ4BUbrCv5nzeiKg8tC96b39XGSVsqW8rvoiyhdivFdjGf68GPhNLV2cpgYg/s1600-h/DSCF0767%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0767" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0767" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnW2BDfaSgOoYTuR2nZluKhXR8VXdgcy9vvAOkFx0MqziD75yVMcgVmUiJ-Xzt7DZmW_kHRJHER01T3ZB6iHfXujps56iHxcsGutknuqBlGmichMJnZ5AodhgpM5KMYzeTPpeblA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYNwAtzeos0BjbJ88k6Oo2qhBtXPhsJYJfy3YZlULR5KISN_sj5EmDRtq8jSLXg8TqbYTuQmMTHbLAN2kzgstGtHeDk4GVzo9_lHBOnJNWiRu0aK-RHTPS_1QUCS-uy84Yh1H8Gw/s1600-h/DSCF0765%255B5%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0765" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0765" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyvDb0iAfuYcVJvJtdzxg9k5ohVHqEr6-ISc_oPynk8m7EhRsoI5LzQnzG_B_mZdzUwG0FzmtghdqTUPLW_1k3Z87N6ptiz0QVpWqtyVxx_XCDWDbL5nHJF-qJqiqPK5dRcgMf7g//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>For me the main reason to come here would be their ambience which makes it a place to take some nice photo mementos to bring home from your Seoul trip.

Raw marinated crabs from Jinmi Sikdang hands down won me over. Jinmi actually means real flavour and what makes Jinmi the best is that their marinades are not as salty and freshness guaranteed! If you have unpleasant experiences of having that fishy smell or taste when you eat in other places – it means its not as fresh! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJJp69JZCJRsf8n9crGOt-JwScljjnq9Z7zCCpCcAOnn_JkvbaIWAxU9475RWCop8I9JgHuAyS_0zVrhZ28OrwxxsUO8T0vKhDT39gvTj9UuFwaqniE85B-hZMRcibq1mgvCuT/s1600-h/20161227_194741%255B9%255D"><img width="1365" height="768" title="20161227_194741" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="20161227_194741" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgR4MukyEMZGRIVnfFiQlcFZ1ssBPKNHgqzrYmOH628a8g1VCTQ8hhWlMTJqil1tUdMFFccoO3XrsQCipot3N7K9bO3DucJEUcNzB7Eg2R0VkTYnTJYrq0J8gxRa7KnOJrUdkM4//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>While Jinmi might be expensive – around USD38 per person – it is highly recommended and if you missed out – it is a #foodcrime. The crab flavours are intense and it’s actually easier to eat than cooked ones as the meat and shell is still soft, making it an enjoyable experience unique only to Ganjang Gaejang! The raw crab roe will give you a foodgasm ~ seriously! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgR3tMr7fy5mHonLkr_Hbj3Majdey1h5QNyQi5jl8xk8D-QKKaILaI0u05Yg8hiYnDEFskcw7OFNEfHexztWUXF7ylDdOVENW2KZcvX9hFfWyavHoJUYtnIocYL4XYk6dnWAU2R/s1600-h/WhatsApp+Image+2017-10-08+at+11.43.59+PM%255B2%255D"><img width="1280" height="959" title="WhatsApp Image 2017-10-08 at 11.43.59 PM" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="WhatsApp Image 2017-10-08 at 11.43.59 PM" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2C6RKXeApS3jSFTTUXqmxYaK1EaJwoCgkW_sccexSG5TcWm70rCfnObNWPcvA2Hvol8kw8vixp1G3v03BFo-oUQyM-oxsT9TggmDaIzHs3keXMoeuSbv14Gua4BWsz69osOJy//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>The side dishes (Banchan) accompanies the raw marinated crab very well!

You will be able to enjoy it with a variety of side toppings so I chose the one with a bit of everything to enjoy. Very enjoyable and highly recommended. You’ll also be glad to know their ingredients are organic and paper cups are environmentally friendly. Despite its location in Hongdae, the nearest stations are Sangsu Station or Hapjeong station, you can still take a stroll from Hongiv University station exit 9 if you want to but it will be a long walk.

My two recommendations here are two of my favourite places in Seoul and you should definitely try it out if its within your budget – between 120 to 150 USD which is surprisingly affordable compared to other metropolitan cities. There’s a dress code in these establishments and I would suggest smart casual for such a special occasion anyways.

His restaurant in New York itself has two Michelin stars while the Seoul restaurant has one star. Jungsik also ranked 20 in best restaurants in Asia. Eating here was quite a fun experience – allowing you to assemble the different components of the food in some dishes while at the same time – wowing your senses, gives you a new perspective on Korean cuisine. The Sea Urchin bibimbap was simply orgasmic and his Jeju crispy snapper was phenomenal! His reinvention of the apple pie is currently the best apple pie I've tasted in my life! If you could only try one fine dining in Seoul - Jungsik should be your first choice!

Chef Kang draws his influence from Japanese, Spanish and French culinary culture to fuse with his Korean roots. The chef’s use of traditional fermented condiments and vinegar-'jang' and 'cho' in his dishes and even dessert showcases his passion to showcase Korean cuisine in the international fine dining scene making it one of the must try fine dining establishments in Seoul. His use of Doen Jang, Gan Jang and Gochu Jang in his Jang-Trio dessert is a work of a genius – beautifully presented and really delicious! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-bEVTKh7cfF9KeT_TgSpbXM37UkknMr35nUkgAPdtP4Sp7h9fRCK8IYB0RO0d-Un5Q384LlQaVBAArutEtdMcxLo9wpoLcSZ2FGf2EJJk8X2leRf3qJqpv0xJBzCXXyZxO52s-A/s1600-h/DSCF034810"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0348" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0348" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ukjsxLhJsWs/Wd17RVfVz0I/AAAAAAAAvjQ/GmsvsRWOGQclLhCT2lw6a3Y-qdx_57U-ACHMYCw/DSCF0348_thumb7?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Thank you Chef Kang for the picture and wowing us with your excellent cooking</p><p><br></p><h2>Mingles</h2><h2>757 Seolleung-ro, Nonhyeon 2(i)-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul</h2><h2>Gangnam-gu Office Station Exit 3</h2><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAbtc9WbusEe-owQxbGpPF9Ifebs2vLYqPS1gQ2dlbK76pykD4ubCDoJ7D3mHJfyCllbEjuPw_hwqGBZHJ6JTk_TAHFs5F0npXBpKKmorpuKnceTUY7eyGiQ0Q1VN-EQ7UDMvLyQ/s1600-h/DSCF053923"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF0539" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0539" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPEQsonvbHdX8CgW12KIoYrNxXJd3SJT7G3ccgfzu6T2XdRDQo7CI72Z-0riJ-WUxPtbKuOO1_17n-D-DtSLucCgOEm6ujdnDgFtEhonr7L5l1ueiOHEjEQWMWEaMVTFxHHkTBaA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>That’s all the must try places when you visit Seoul!

Located off the north-west coast of the state of Sabah, Malaysia, the island is home to many marine animals. You will have two fun options to choose from, depending on your preferences: a Mantanani snorkeling only package or Mantanani snorkeling plus a Kawa Kawa River cruise. The first one takes you to the best locations for exploring the underwater world with an abundance of coral reefs.

Tuaran mee on it’s own is already pretty good – but the addition of Huang Jiu (yellow wine), home made by the restaurant and stir fried together gives a fragrant sweet rice wine taste to the noodles! OMG – heavenly! I usually order mine with their signature crispy fish slices for my Tuaran mee. If you had not tried this dish while you were in KK, you’re missing out! They are serve delicious Tom Yum Noodles – so be sure to try that as well!

San Nyuk Mian is different from the Kuching version of ‘Cheng’ Noodles. The soup base is usually saltier, greasy and stronger in flavour. What’s special and delicious about San Nguk Mian is how thinly sliced the pork are and are so tender to the point that you don’t have to chew much ~~It’s also very near to Seng Hing Kopitiam – about less than 5 minutes from hotel as well. <p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8IiJPlJ-eHRZJWLmjH5KHYTgMk0wHMy8F5g8RPVjTM16XLqM0sMoJcCLodk7ez_y00vVqJg8A3j7oxYEtQXsQL4YdT2s5EiBXU1XJHs9w1V_t9vImUIII1znWpmV0Dw1BGmg4JA/s1600-h/DSCF3459%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="422" title="DSCF3459" alt="DSCF3459" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJP0RaU67B1ylyr3E3dh1oLiNNhipP8nhZoP6c7W_UphI2oCH9ZgV2h06AcI5zYYLAViZsJr06TuAegICKiUik4j0i4StdGtrMiJOuctdegI6qt-9xiqSukxmrp-1xhvJDzdS8xw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a> <p><a href="http://www.thanislim.com/2014/01/kota-kinabalu-food-guide-for-tourists_4.html">http://www.thanislim.com/2014/01/kota-kinabalu-food-guide-for-tourists_4.html</a></p> <p><strong>Kedai Kopi Kim Hing Lee 金興利茶室<br>Block F, Lot 7, Sinsuran Complex,<br>88000 Kota Kinabalu, Sabah.</strong><br><strong>Business Hours: 6:30am - 3:00pm (Mon - Sat) & 6:30am - 2:30pm (Sun)</strong></p><p><strong><br></strong></p><h3 align="center">Kedai Kopi Melanian 3 金沙园生肉面</h3><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1vrQA09kpOnkey7abUsS3Yf2KjZ1UWhob"><img width="744" height="1028" title="WhatsApp Image 2022-05-18 at 7.38.34 PM" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="WhatsApp Image 2022-05-18 at 7.38.34 PM" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1XdjS1K-etuEThTcrr6GUVM_Z6G7NQvo3" border="0"></a></p><p>While most of the locals will go to the Lintas branch, they actually have a branch in the city for delicious san ngyuk mian.

Which state has the best food in Malaysia? I personally went to Kuching just to savour the best Kuching food – 9 days later – 123 stalls/restaurants – 214 dishes/specialty drinks later – I can declare I must had gained 5kgs and gained very useful insight into what are the must eat food in Kuching – which has the reputation to rival <a href="http://www.thanislim.com/2013/06/my-penang-food-hunt-morning-food-hunt.html" target="_blank">Penang</a> as the food capital or gem of Malaysia. </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglkVdjCId-i2jvmC0jwyLxI8mLfdynsB4-xrkV9vnRAVxL2BOZmk38M0JYHn-WIg_oZ4TVFG3KQX_fR8XTy9iBCcucGdUyIpYTPDUMbfl8-O1vZdkGEjWaFgdlzIxfPyHK3Csk_g/s1600-h/DSCF2347%252520%252528Medium%252529%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="527" title="DSCF2347 (Medium)" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF2347 (Medium)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgj8qXA5tHlTqukxP3Hw2VXHBtw1H3JLn5NJ42qs9gEZXKf0v6BOgHavMD4IQ4_VtCZmoa751ih1g-Lph7IwjC3EQJqoI-S54xxXou7XvsRSXkLbE5-WRL8Cbt3-cRU9kM2BhVyKw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Some say that it’s difficult to travel around for food in Kuching because all the good stalls are scattered around – so you will need a local Kuching friend or you need to rent a car to go around and hunt for good Kuching food. What if I were to tell you – that after tasting all the Kuching kolo mee, Kuching laksa, belacan bee hoons and Kuching pork satays during my stay in Kuching – I can give you a KUCHING FOOD GUIDE that is tourist friendly – mostly within close proximity of city centre and walking distance!

Me and John sat down, Winnie greeted us and our food arrived – very nicely plated – it’s like a bento plated – with many beautifully presented healthy food on a plate.

Now – to try Winnie’s food – you need to know her in advance or give her a call before you dine here – because she will tailor the food to your needs and health – Winnie Café is a special café in that the better she knows you – the more she can custom make food to suit your lifestyle! </p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Winnie-Cafe/101016529981825?fref=ts">https://www.facebook.com/pages/Winnie-Cafe/101016529981825?fref=ts</a> – Chat with Winnie and get to know her first.

We Bruneians are a very hospitable bunch and we love visitors! This post is meant as a guideline for visitors who want to explore the dining scene in Brunei and also for locals who want ideas on where to eat. Note: Not being included in this list does not mean the restaurants are not worthy. There are still plenty of good restaurants that are not in this list.

The only problem is that you cannot get a Dart to pick you from airport but anywhere else its fine. A very handy app to have and you can just pay the drivers using cash. Click on the Dart App Poster to download the app on your phone. <br></p><h3 align="center">Chop Jing Chew</h3> <p><br>Located in Central Gadong. This restaurant has a very long history and is our nations pride. Delicious bread and buns made fresh daily and lot’s of variety of dishes to savour. Their Roti Kuning and Roti Cucur are must tries but my personal favourite is still their Roti Kacang Kahwin! A must try food in Brunei! Recently, they introduced the Roti Cheese, which is a new item you must try. Savoury favourites include their Roti Cucur (French Toast using their yellow bread) as well as their signature Zhi Ma Kway Teow ( Rice Noodles tossed in dark sweet sauce and topped with fried fish fillets)</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrwrGNnTQ9G68olCscgp4XddvdFo7kCk28bpJULQ7vWPV57hyphenhyphen-QLUALF1uum32QMFhW4bkhAzM77QAbKpDgEJSx4NKVQiR_tZBy6BIXhYVt6iFFy_e-KXrFs6RKKbqYTWiYD68ew/s1600-h/DSCF7686.jpg"><img width="700" height="527" title="DSCF7686" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF7686" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlqC9fYgKwbNPZP66ex_gj9K76VjgJKsbVXen-rkwhyVZZfmFNOs0kRqUGP1ixGOhV4tTPcxPTzmvvriVkZKHzz0RYCcKNGEGKpUdOLhpxU_aEYh3PdY-G_9zF1axhgAG3mR1ZhQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Address: </p> <p>Simpang 5, No. 10, Jalan Gadong, BSB, BS 8670, Brunei Darussalam. <p>2424132 / 2448660<br> <br><a title="http://cookiemonzters.blogspot.com/2008/03/restaurant-review-jinchiew-kopitiam.html" href="http://cookiemonzters.blogspot.com/2008/03/restaurant-review-jinchiew-kopitiam.html">http://cookiemonzters.blogspot.com/2008/03/restaurant-review-jinchiew-kopitiam.html</a></p><p><br></p><h3 align="center">Sapphira Cake House</h3><span style="font-size: large;"></span> <p><br>This cake house specializing in traditional Malay cakes is one of the best places for tea.

I personally love their deep fried fritters and chicken wings - washed down with a nice glass of ABC ~~ ahhhh ~~ great place for afternoon tea!

Good crispy fragrant texture, served with delicious condiments like sardines and corn beef, this place is the favourite place for Murtabak for many in Brunei. Their Roti Kosong is simply good enough to eat on it’s own but even better with the condiments and curry! My personal favourite condiment is the sardine!

The signature dish I like here is the roti norbi – which is stir fried roti murtabak kosong – Norbi is named after the wife of the first owner (if I am not wrong). If you want to have an even more epic meal? Order Roti Norbi Cornbeef – I highly recommend it.

One can bring $5 and have a very very filling meal in these night markets. Grilled chicken, fish and satays are widely available here. Don’t miss Hati Buyah, a marinated and stir fried sliced beef lungs, Ayam Tongkeng (chicken butts!!), pulut panggang (glutious rice stuffed with beef or prawns, wrapped with banana leaves and grilled), Kuih Melaya (Malay style pancake with peanuts, condensed milk and raisins) and lots of good thirst quenching drinks like Samboi (sour plum) and coconut juice. Your trip in Brunei is not complete without a visit to our popular night markets!

Below are some popular places for Ambuyat that I usually go to. </p><p align="center"><br></p> <h3 align="center">Tarindak di Seni</h3><span style="font-size: large;"></span> <p><br>Situated in Kota Batu, Tarindak has great view of the Water Village as well as a showcase for Handicrafts for tourists to have a look.

People from Miri and KK actually put Excapade as their must go place for Japanese food when they visit Brunei. It’s very affordable yet good quality sushi. If you had tried budget sushi places in Malaysia, Singapore and Australia – you will be surprised that Excapade is pretty good value for money. They have many branches throughout Brunei but I always prefer the Gadong branch. Their Japanese buffet during month of Ramadhan is so famous that people travel from overseas just to try it!</p> <p><br><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2af-TmBVw9xllbOm7NgUL7-zEVSEC9WAHJzz5bZ3uwgCgq5a7hFQrR0LwEWzCs8K60a-PFFm-kbMFtAngHMjo9zj5F4GYKgJP-7bpVVQF2L-q48TaKzdGsZy00rEEj1kgUdxR7w/s1600-h/DSCF8022%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img width="704" height="529" title="DSCF8022" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF8022" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYdDESaP5T9rY6XX8TIOfSVadgfSHN7_R5DjBw_mqItxqa-uIzwslCZHMu1h6QyYFcK2K_M4oc4SXxFp3xRyfcdhZhsGzEpBtj9vl8y-T9bDYWvcKopprz3v1tSXKaUbq9ocSdyw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><br></p> <p>Excapade Sushi Gadong <p>Unit 4 & 5 1st Fl Abd Razak Complex Blk E Gadong <p>673-244-3012 <p>Excaped Sushi Kiulap <p>Unit 5 Gr Fl Blk A Q=lap Complex Kpg Kiulap <p>673-223-4012 <p>Excapade Sushi Regent Square <p>Unit 1 & 2 Gr Fl Regent Square Kpg Kiulap <p>673-223-4011 <p>Excapade Sushi Serusop <p>5 Gr Fl Blk A Bgn Desa Delima Jln Muara Kpg Pancha Delima <p>673-233-5512 <p>Excapade Sushi Times Square <p>G1 Gr Fl Times Square Shopping Centre Berakas <p>673-234-2912</p> <p>Excapade Sushi Seria <p>No 80 Jln Bunga Melor <p>673-322-1155 <p>Excapade Sushi Belait <p>2 Gr Fl Blk B Bgn Pg Hj Hashim Pg Mohd Jadid Jln Jaya Negara Kuala Belait <p>673-333-3993 </p><p><br></p><h3 align="center">Kaizen Sushi Waterfront</h3><p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-P4Z6vxJkY7I/WgrskhHWR2I/AAAAAAAAwTU/pS23FzZTT6QzXAk54l_aML6Uo-2LEPeaACHMYCw/s1600-h/WhatsApp%2BImage%2B2017-11-14%2Bat%2B9.05.39%2BPM%2B%25281%2529%255B2%255D"><img width="1280" height="960" title="WhatsApp Image 2017-11-14 at 9.05.39 PM (1)" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; float: none; display: block; background-image: none;" alt="WhatsApp Image 2017-11-14 at 9.05.39 PM (1)" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy4rhxVDQuORZ2_jP-Xy4XoPfV_uj8NyP3S_p1hYMBPEmnWFI_emn02z2xJ3BZ7IIf3JOhnBI_IN9Dj6IlgICXa2jlgbx2A7rXzUGjPfmvH6JMbBYO3t8Jxhu0sOTAg3QAPfJ5TQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>For special occasions, we tend to like Kaizen for their better ambience and service especially the waterfront branch with a good view.

You are in for a big surprise. Our pizzas are easily the best in Borneo island. Don’t believe me? Come check out the top two pizza places in Brunei and be amazed! When it comes to Pizza, I tend to lean towards Sorisso and Coffee Beans – while Margarita Pizza seems to have a cult following too. </p> <p><br></p> <h3 align="center">Sorisso Restaurant</h3> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhj2nzkrDEB9iKTvicDKQdzFXZgILGJWasO_CtzmINmL_mfrQ3oMMOGee-pe2hVpwcDO9DdoUJgfa2pqQT5cBIE1IOdHnYUe1QUDKGbjFZJrhtYkHfnC-SHtHxBFo6OJLk2EvfJCQ/s1600-h/DSCF6758%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="525" title="DSCF6758" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF6758" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVLtscHmhY5yq3wOT9AkkMU10m-9gDTyxtVJ_mIWIv_CgJ4hwAlVoYvMHgtrB-LxP0VA7_vSW_0wRFP-pYipnPN9XxOAwPFczcO0DgdFWub36xSiZL_QVkCM-rO81tu6ayYXpFkg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Sorisso in my opinion is the best Italian restaurant in Brunei – hands down. My favourite is their Sorisso pizza, which consists of thinly sliced raw beef carpaccio, with shaved parmesan slices and truffle oil. Authentic pizzas and pastas, as well as a good selection of Anti-pastos prepared by an Italian Chef Salvo is extremely friendly and fun to have around! Look out for their specials from time to time such as lobsters, truffle burgers and foie gras! </p> <p>Address: Regent Square, #14/15 Block B Grd Floor, Kiulap<br>BE 1518 Bandar Seri Begawan</p> <p>Tel: 223 3030</p> <p><br></p> <h3 align="center">Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf Mata Mata Branch and Times Square Branch</h3> <p align="center">One might be surprised to find a well known international franchise here but Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf branch in Mata Mata deserves a place here for their American style Pizzas and Pastas. They have quickly established themselves as one of the best Brunei has to offer despite having a different style from the traditional Italian style. Of course – there’s good coffee and tea drinks to match their range of American style cuisine! Visit either the branch in Mata Mata or Times Square for the branches that serve Pizza and Pasta! </p> <p align="center"><img width="700" height="525" title="DSCF7905" alt="DSCF7905" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpvCDMSgeHHT81w4VxXwfycOxKvzDmL_VIDuIshJbPw2qoqpAEVZYOk1fI4XSC62HtUHOqTh83gysNW8-T7qSwMFAGwhYFMj_AsQ5CcbtKzYaajflzEZyqutZEKr-jsb4TEixHNA//?imgmax=800"></p> <p>Their pizza is more rustic and is different but I assure you – they are yummy!</p> <p><br></p> <p><img width="700" height="525" title="DSCF7476" alt="DSCF7476" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_tGOlzdXviGgoVw49RDcm09daIiOJNDF1YvYC0sTDDpLkunNL-58Pl4zNJCwNtHyKa1cD3sLMQVzRYzUQ14O7844x7xPLph2Nh-dKLaNSQXvKFB-KFtTDHGnDtdmWhL_CvnMSTw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></p> <p>Coffee Bean Mata Mata (connected to Supasave supermarket)</p> <p><a title="http://www.thanislim.com/2015/06/the-coffee-bean-and-tea-leaf-mata-mata.html" href="http://www.thanislim.com/2015/06/the-coffee-bean-and-tea-leaf-mata-mata.html">http://www.thanislim.com/2015/06/the-coffee-bean-and-tea-leaf-mata-mata.html</a></p> <p><br></p><h3 align="center">Cafes</h3><p>We have quite a lot of influence especially from UK and Australia so it’s natural that we have very good cafes and cakes, from chefs and baristas trained overseas and opened their own humble cafes in Brunei! </p><p><br></p><h3 align="center">Dil Coffee Trail</h3><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1CZ8imCwzAuwrn3Gc-aHPmbR1RzjNMhaV"><img width="960" height="720" title="165175426_10158063005876417_8356928841824785431_n" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="165175426_10158063005876417_8356928841824785431_n" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1L6p47oo_taJKppxwLgV8eq_mkVrJdnCm" border="0"></a></p><p>I come here for coffee from time to time.

I started out writing this blog as a cooking journal to share recipes and cooking tips for friends while I was studying in Australia. I must admit I began my journey as a foodie with humble beginnings – relying a lot on cooking magazines and websites for my food adventures. Blessed with a good mix of multicultural friends, I had the exposure to different types of cooking techniques and ingredients readily available in Australia. </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxlPPj2g2kAhrWqvePqc2KBayjMmcNvCUISNhuRFPqgXhrNi0cNNiqQvOxHr43euoxCiuDSQNffJeKYb6gMV1PgnopGmmoAUHGOjgSTfJhisdRhtmEC_1Bv0FsghjxQ-KJllT2_A/s1600-h/30893_414099641416_5450066_n%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="836" title="30893_414099641416_5450066_n" style="border-width: 0px; display: inline;" alt="30893_414099641416_5450066_n" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-OJDSe5YZnDw/UmYERQBn42I/AAAAAAAAI7A/FOhHbLULoPU/30893_414099641416_5450066_n_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" border="0"></a> </p> <p>After I graduated and moved back to Brunei, my cooking style had to adapt to use more locally available ingredients, allowing me the creative motivation to combine and fuse culinary boundaries. The root of my cooking lies in using the freshest available local produce from Borneo and incorporating them into my cooking using East versus West cooking techniques. My fascination with cooking shows and food science, watching and reading about great chefs such as Heston, Thomas Keller and David Chang, as well as reality TV series like Iron Chef, Master Chef and Top Chef, inspired me a great deal. It was this period in which I experienced the most growth as a foodie, constantly experimenting with new ideas in my kitchen – the Thanis Kitchen. </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEis4oZ8ZegVmQ4HOHSa9oQVLJX93F2oArwKWjyfYRX0gCSBw__DRZ4TyQYDLJ3AnQ3II-BT9W25iDNv7_kcHgKOZPgKNnb_rBQnm_Zvqt4DYsSAPoMrhwb5NhQIb9BIx7PbzC-chQ/s1600-h/285241_10150252956531417_6190107_n%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="406" title="285241_10150252956531417_6190107_n" style="border-width: 0px; display: inline;" alt="285241_10150252956531417_6190107_n" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLE7HzAITCltbnrbFDddXQQsvLYLkINBMRoZ0nrXld_MeSvegrEeJ9IXa5foCdlllua-tpFqn61HYm96DaogtS2ShTEYj4y9DZMNlpUcZUZz35oc8Ag1H871va-Ciw0-bYBFtdGg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>A big change in my blogging style in Brunei was when I started to do restaurant reviews, which became an integral part of my blog. Informing the public on where to eat and what to eat became a passion of mine. This was during the blogging boom in Brunei, bloggers became popular figures in Brunei, but I wasn’t one of them – I was enjoying my blogging – behind the spotlight. </p> <p><br></p><h2>My passion for cooking</h2> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr7q-9ZEi0DjOqG6IX3hVGVug_2sVGsanSynXwAc7MnE5VrQrD4QmOv6yMbxYUYSAdInqJR5kOYB32evF1pcCRJ6F7aW0Ecsr6DbyhlpDRlUv-A7B48aDNvgxmKGOR_QasdtrxUQ/s1600-h/30893_414099506416_2223749_n%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="468" title="30893_414099506416_2223749_n" style="border-width: 0px; display: inline;" alt="30893_414099506416_2223749_n" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirhvipSpfkudMuWAPY_uGbO9UkEEylQOoDMRls95ApQq3D8Dix_rNDkVxSDoGC__bJuqxVIUZC6fplKJGN7nxSsd4rZKer2hM522cJ8Mz_u7obp_RDwyZE7funV-MK_Tz8gK9OXg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a> </p> <p>An invitation to cook in Fadillah’s kitchen was a big honour and motivated me a lot as a foodie.

My fusion pastas such as Nyonya Dry Curry Pasta came first in my very first cooking challenge, much to my surprise, while the Kuching Laksa Pesto Pasta, came first in my second challenge and my Thai Style Marinara came third. The most memorable was my final challenge, in which my Golden Salted Yolks Carbonara won second place while my Sour Plum Vinegar Lamb Stew won me a ticket to Melbourne, the first prize! I have to thank Fadillah and Reedah (anakbrunei) for giving me the chance and motivation in these cooking challenges. They are a big inspiration and catalyst to what I have achieved today and I thank them deeply from the bottom of my heart, and stomach. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjy-4_G2Yahx8BdOwQ2WxVlD_0hDBiJbbPA3zrOHx-wzWdSRlAMDxiiQu31LAEqQYbyB3SNlnHz9SJzonm0Pnu6V8i8wSHqe6WT_J-xozuJCSwCAQMjFwDKq5HOW7kGdhrTjYnd-w/s1600-h/252645_390714810978104_1184114544_n%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="469" title="252645_390714810978104_1184114544_n" style="border-width: 0px; display: inline;" alt="252645_390714810978104_1184114544_n" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0NLgoBS-0u-Hh84cpzd_i9GrJ0cD8qsFOkaxRcM_wraFlpEXjZJWhhOLvXayP4SKfMK3S01w_dS8Th6v67OixYA-Wd4xNDBD2DMgwd2TyJxLt6sW7-rmhyphenhyphenZSNoT23OdsT3bv2tg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Being a judge in National Cooking Competitions was another experience for me as well.

This was a big step for how Thanislim.com has grown to today. </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY-pQVs2uckXyst4U4yCr0Us5FgvblPD_ims_Id_gH4Lgh5rAWJEingvM-tIGiAbdZaG7Vw0rZsfBdG2jH21IMhl3OwFZTaYmk8SnPGxA_0v-dxbrgA6NTb9KzEjY7W0vy9tw8yg/s1600-h/40045_432322296416_5129806_n%25255B9%25255D.jpg"><img width="700" height="502" title="40045_432322296416_5129806_n" style="border-width: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 0px; display: inline;" alt="40045_432322296416_5129806_n" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivAK3YI6CjGKotiSLIFrdMSgYenjtjK5FvQYgLJuKw4kDQwKVrqvSU2cCNdWXs1pASYIpkEmLCS-jyZ_2AHPyXbmTDK2JHxCZ7y2gZTqNVPtzPHKSMylne7hvWmkgbZN-okO6oag//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a> </p><p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-U16wrddUrP8/WYgxD-80NOI/AAAAAAAAugE/z5Hbk4TU3kElFTpFy33oJtzLDsCSOkYqACHMYCw/s1600-h/Sungkai%255B4%255D"><img width="1067" height="911" title="Sungkai" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="Sungkai" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicHHbjLtjPWEJ0HwGU96qcOzPNC3bll__7vBxu803Dsif4JKVD7rtPOXiUpQVwP7M1B5KACdssLO_ThmqTMD7Q1hPtWLdv1m7QUG5IQon8z4YFrCltiS9VVqTNJ9BoIkfH-nZISA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>My Annual Ramadhan Posts has now grown to get more than <strong>200k monthly views</strong> and ranked very highly on Google search for ‘Brunei Sungkai’ making it one of the most popular sources to the best places to eat during the month of Ramadhan. <p><p><br></p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=13PUenFKd3zVQ8_oF0fXntzGzz0OnxNRX"><img width="360" height="480" title="2" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1SC3x4OSmLbzMKJDzLay4uPfw3wkXM4EH" border="0"></a><p><br></p><p>Here is a screenshot of my<strong> 3 million impressions per week</strong> on Instagram. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=18A3M5s4sGmsUZhJlbD17v9AXBxiz8K-2"><img width="1080" height="1350" title="3" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="3" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1OotFq9ErkzJvDK7Nd3HPpnOTdCZiSnH3" border="0"></a></p><p>Screenshot of my <strong>Instagram Reach hitting 720 thousand per week</strong>! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1bLtKCrjnDju02lGKXbyrga7a2iSjrWue"><img width="1080" height="1702" title="4" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="4" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=15mfnsyb8sP8M8tIIJQuNC_1jtW3Cdwy6" border="0"></a></p><p>IG stories are a big hit nowadays and it’s a very good marketing tool!

Vietnamese food in my opinion is pretty healthy and is packed with loads of nutrition. I’ve written a guide on where to find the best Pho in Vietnam but it’s about time I introduce the best food you can eat in the city of Hanoi as well as where to find the best cafes in Hanoi!</p> <p align="center"><br></p> <h2 align="center">Where to stay? </h2> <p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZzD2ioX2vccBcpMV2ptwQx_TITXHcrXqLmpDb-D4Sq4N1lXpqJcclK6yNqgBNJur0Bl8m5n8sYadUoHZ4evGShioEr_bSJK3n-XwcRHaYsjCYHOD64Ol4famUcJpuRDP0maPORg/s1600-h/DSCF4835%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF4835" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF4835" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRguVvrur_HGGk47MoHmwn3r4i6I7IEw3aOIT7Xcs0JpbL8QkhTAGUMVkuG0UfmF1N-4nUZfuv2hJRE6WlN9ljLGz51E5-odMBINsKFOa9giWOlxcaNL1rdfesVVBnZr4bq5T2dw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p align="center">If you are more into the Hanoi street food scene ~ the best places to stay would be somewhere around the Old Quarters area where most of the food in the post is within walking distance (between 5 to 30 minutes walk). Anywhere near the famous Hoan Kiem lake is fine as that is very central. I stayed at Hanoi Charming 2 Hotel when I was in Hanoi and the service was really good for the price I’ve paid. The safe bet is to book through reputable hotel booking sites and not direct through hotels unless you are sure these aren’t scam websites or hotels. </p> <p align="center"><br></p> <p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnEcbME1ufM8xga6NTq69AgSBBvEvEvtGx_MOtIs912gxHGmTS0cCuJssTfr_AmGGH27YNTbFULCSGwuKMTclpOKvtYc5XTvBbxuPccOE-3wxtAeR2hIP098frkpAASaly-8f7SA/s1600-h/DSCF4651%25255B6%25255D.jpg"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF4651" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF4651" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhknViL2varvC8g5GYi0ed01xqtqJJxmxgTlT9_fNwpuhh-VCayQTUaxO_TkUkNbIlIj-NiQR9yUyMg00iTfYT4_ssCe7lwHPkDMRhcsP5I-pR6ld8PRhOJw3knGuz9wLJJpWcZDA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p align="center"><font size="2"><em>Hoan Kiem Lake (taken without tripod lol)</em></font></p> <p align="center"><br></p> <p align="center">Be sure to print out your hotel’s address (in Vietnamese if possible) and whatever you do – do not take any other taxi other than Mai Linh or Vinasun at the airport. Flat out refuse to board any taxi no matter what they say to you or how tired you are. There are enough horror stories in travel forums and blogs to deter you. Even if there is a queue, let someone behind you take the taxi instead of getting into the taxi. </p> <p align="center"><br></p> <h2 align="center">Transport</h2> <p align="center"><br></p> <p align="center"></p> <p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjgPw9U-5ImZSIsPNrwZBY9ZDaHJQQGYrrjkYmcoFxEeTSjh7_pF0On7tWX72VxtO07Qc_WBqlCyn6U0mHE6hXCa0yRhX23S_OY10vInnIYxXiyolgyTjRtwTe7HFlA1LmvugLxzg/s1600-h/vns-mlg-1432955693118%25255B7%25255D.jpg"><img width="660" height="369" title="vns-mlg-1432955693118" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="vns-mlg-1432955693118" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8e-MkGXsBFSK-yyJJNU9nG7aFJt6j5jMIWBveY7ddFwlY2Hzdm9gR7t2mHWNr0gjyamNJdpuvwOd-d8GduYdyys79nfgY5uX1DVXWiABNaxtEFTp6zPrTuPshyK_l7oGT96eBvw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p align="center"><font size="1">Image from </font><a title="http://cafef.vn/" href="http://cafef.vn/"><font size="1">http://cafef.vn/</font></a></p> <p align="center">I could not stress this enough – there are tons of taxi scams in Vietnam and no matter how desperate you are – do not get into any taxis UNLESS they are Vinasun and Mai Linh taxis. Be sure to also verify that they are not FAKE Vinasun or Mai Linh Taxis ~~ to only way to be sure is to check the spelling as well as the phone numbers written on every taxi. Vinasun 38 27 27 27 for example. There are so many horror stories of tourists who can’t find Vinasun or Mai Linh then end up in another taxi which have special meters that move at the speed of lightning and will try to scam as much money out of you so beware! Another alternative if you cannot find Vinasun or Mai Linh is to use Uber, which I used efficiently as I could pinpoint the location of the places I wish to go. I personally prefer Vinasun during my trip in Vietnam but Mai Linh is fine – I did not get scammed by taxi even once when I was in Vietnam because I follow these rules – so you don’t really need to worry. </p><p align="center"><br></p><h2 align="center">Private Airport Transfers to Hanoi or Halong Bay</h2><p align="center"><a href="https://affiliate.klook.com/jump/activity/4267-private-airport-transfers-hanoi/?adid=14024&af_wid=2385" target="_blank"><img width="1295" height="720" title="NoiBaiAirportTransfers(HAN)forHanoiCityorHalongBay" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="NoiBaiAirportTransfers(HAN)forHanoiCityorHalongBay" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGV9jqUotUFjNMxyAC3fvnjYcsjH7nfMsOLTwAlhV8aQ69O9WLNTdreNoWOCErJB563d1pbegu9Lzaoo99YkQiMiwK5D66drXMHFhir9YsrR62i52EEwcRn3PBhtzVdEHuzrdeeg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p align="center"><a href="https://affiliate.klook.com/jump/activity/4267-private-airport-transfers-hanoi/?adid=14024&af_wid=2385" target="_blank">If you want a peace of mind and don’t want the hassle of worrying about scamming taxis ~ the best bet is to hire a private transport – especially if you want to get to Halong Bay direct from the airport.

If you arrive in Hanoi on late or too early flights, chances are the shops for simcards are closed! But don’t worry as you can pick up your Vietnam WiFi device as soon as you arrive at your hotel, so there's no need to worry about missing the shop opening hours. When you arrived in your hotel in Hanoi, you will be asked to provide your identification and to show your redemption voucher when checking in. Once the information has been confirmed, you will receive your rental device that will enable you to enjoy unlimited 3G WiFi throughout Vietnam on Vinaphone, a reliable local network. Your portable WiFi will connect up to 8 devices and can last up to 6 hours on a single charge. At the end of your trip, simply pack your rental into the provided envelope and drop it off at the hotel front desk while you check out, the rest will be sorted for you. This is quite simply the most convenient and easiest way to stay connected while traveling in Vietnam!

And even though the title was taken by Thăng Long in 1010, the city remains a treasury of historical interest to this day. The Hoa Lu - Tam Coc Day Trip takes you on an exciting adventure through natural and cultural landmarks. After hotel pick up in Hanoi, you start off in Ninh Binh and hop on a boat in Tam Coc. Passing through caves and limestone karst formations, you get to explore Vietnam’s landscape in all its diversity. After lunch at a local restaurant, you go on to visit the temples of Dinh and Le Dynasty before heading back to Hanoi.

Despite having the same name, they both serve different types of Pho – the one in Lo Duc street stir fries the beef first before adding to the rice noodles, then laden with broth, which gives it a very different taste to traditional Hanoi Pho.

The soup has just the right amount of sweetness and the beef slices tender and delicious. If you visit Hanoi and failed to have a bowl of this pho – you’ve failed your trip in Hanoi and committed a serious #foodcrime! Die die also must wake up early just to eat this bowl of heaven! You hear me?! <p align="center"> <p align="center">Pho Gia Truyen, 49 Bat Dan, Hanoi – go there around 6am.

To visit the land where ramen began felt like a pilgrimage and I sought after the best ramen in the most popular cities in Japan. While most are familiar with the Internationally renowed ones like Ichiran, Ippudo and Santouka ramen, I’m after something more. Where are the ramen that the Japanese love to eat? In my Japan trip – I’ve tasted more than 50 bowls of ramen from different places and realized the amount of diversity when it comes to ramen in Japan. Nevertheless, I am writing this guide to help you find the best ramen in the three cities. I will also teach you how to shorten your queues and waiting times to eat at these ramen places. I must warn you – the ramen listed here are so good – you will never be satisfied with ramen in your home country. Here are the must eat ramen from Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka! </p><p><br></p><p>Meanwhile if you are just visiting Tokyo only. Here’s a guide I’ve written strictly for Tokyo City!</p><p><a href="http://www.thanislim.com/2018/10/tokyo-food-guide-must-eat-restaurants.html" target="_blank"><img width="1080" height="600" title="WhatsApp Image 2018-10-31 at 9.37.26 PM" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="WhatsApp Image 2018-10-31 at 9.37.26 PM" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbTrGgqu6c6HU6TOrXN3f8y_yjE8cOld51Oeb06sxTBXIS5_uJMCLf5Ql0JD287ZWfp0Cdb5VGU4NoHEwZ-gwsSao8sIMQAb8pL04Z5UrgxMzi7hIE4pnw2CD1R3i6X9sLb3fWvQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p><a href="http://www.thanislim.com/2018/10/tokyo-food-guide-must-eat-restaurants.html" target="_blank">Where’s the best Sushi, All You Can Eat Kobe Beef in Tokyo?

I’ve learned it the hard way and by passing this knowledge to you – it will definitely help shorten your waiting time. Notice this queue to Menya Itto – there are two long lines on the left and also the right at the end. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0cVvlkuYqV9srEfxeIq-nibpUXiNNcyOlon2LAiAl_wMs68jw1GEDwD0_s7655b5tk2hyphenhyphenyRR1YHIWCWReKQZdFauPydBCDcGPACtgM9_upj8wMfN2KO9alQ1w05dEntH91L7a_Q/s1600-h/2017_0618_11052900%255B11%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="2017_0618_11052900" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2017_0618_11052900" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkr1qkQ-0_tGwzXPmXpjf99A5nKFkY6mLGz2jQO0sSDVCm_Ffuw8Jmfd3NsZ87iUudf-L_O1lBobnSSLsUrSSFf0TXx_BRHJ2WttpdzOTOPGvyB5CwqBILtS0CbxDERbl2eV5Gkw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Most of the top ramen places have very limited seats – ranging from 8 to 20 seats – so it is natural to wait about 90 minutes to 120 minutes in the queue. Thankfully most people eat pretty fast in ramen joints and finish within 20 minutes per session. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK-sVchZwD30qafempzeECLZfI8M5aPOGscftv9L4e5uNbjzSVmj5MOBufjM2S-Ers-S-rOZD4IeJyC4KJgtQBwl-C1MBvAPukoz0GwB2_1A0DpNwPxsI8Yisfm8gHS4RN8iLItw/s1600-h/IMG_20170623_215009%255B12%255D"><img width="576" height="768" title="IMG_20170623_215009" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20170623_215009" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQbU0Pe2UtUJ8JrZbdtmAfT35Ljzq-xv9pr4iF_koDuk04Ky8I1seyICGhBNukywEbLldTDIA2GRfjjoyUlxQP9fG63_X8WIjc7SPg697xXg4NmgNrZolTEBSoo1c160tBodoLPA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>As you can see in this picture – this ramen place is actually in the suburbs and its 11pm but the queue is still long and only local Japanese – I queued for about 45 minutes just to have supper – LOL. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgweHYKgXBF_NKrrT8THzHMNhwlteWhSgDHniieVzqpxnrsr4Q-94q9jCLenDdXGNPkRtt0BdH7rfrw9mQsO1iQ3AdkmIK3-x-CqWmGbOyHU0d5QdpKqPSxAf3vtusAIkqeGDAfpw/s1600-h/2017_0617_11403300%255B12%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="2017_0617_11403300" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2017_0617_11403300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD6blZVGMWJy9_ZW7oT8UcZH59KIKMUHMtJzBtf91GIAQnDslopEHsCMc2bbBlp40XxXyb9sIberUXu1179Sl8hf_wUs4N2YQml_gtpmNcEyDwU58onVMZwDtmY6TY731XHK9_Dg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>So what’s the tip I can give you? For starters – find out what is the opening hour for both lunch and dinner – notice that some ramen joints vary their opening hours depending on which day. Arrive at least half an hour before the restaurant opens – that way – you have a higher chance to ensure your waiting times are shorter than one hour. I made the mistake of not checking Menya Ittou’s opening hour properly and arrived at 10:30 instead of 10 (assuming they open at 11). The result was a 90 minute queue – if you actually arrived at 10am – you more more likely to wait less than that time. Plan your lunch times around that and you should be fine. So remember this tip – arrive half an hour or more before opening time at the top ramen places! Oh and bring an umbrella with you – chances are you might be under the hot sun or under the drizzling rain and bring something to entertain yourself while waiting for the queue to move! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2VDGZIbZkOCTapUwt-Sm3uR729gm8IFmp43i5tap_Iq6zg9qYGAzV1YOjGiy_MYidBAl8jC1PKOS1ol9eqp3UFa9U19-ovpWcb0LzHFwqo7cDDZhxwhfOocMsx5Pud5mXbr1oIQ/s1600-h/IMG_20170623_153610%255B11%255D"><img width="1024" height="768" title="IMG_20170623_153610" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20170623_153610" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTLgYXB1KVr-JKdVBW-o6HHGZHQy28BLoMzUhfnUNu2AMoFh85qyfKIHUSH-umsPIuKrtPNr0yIIBM4DdRhfYn8Ekumwfjp7hXtKq-9yL3C82LWG69TKEJbye8pN0NP73cr2_m2Q//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>For those good ramen that are located within popular Ramen streets – they have one in Tokyo and also in Kyoto – you can just go during low peak hours – usually early in the morning or during tea time and there won’t be a long queue. </p><p><br></p><h2>Travel tip: How to travel around Japan!</h2><p><a href="https://affiliate.klook.com/jump/city/100-jr-pass/?adid=14308&af_wid=2385" target="_blank"><img width="1295" height="720" title="OrdinaryCar7DayWholeJapanRailPass5" style="margin: 0px; border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="OrdinaryCar7DayWholeJapanRailPass5" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwprm481MrM8ZUB-Am3ThqD2QGPhajkLjU4fmDdP_VCWPrw-uGVrl3NST3Z9c_0M-Lmen9DEH-2MbVbLcv6YFucEnFvGI7_a9usQVZ46ZTmBmEYNO9OzNXEKdIwyZoJJQjwr1eIw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p><a href="https://affiliate.klook.com/jump/city/100-jr-pass/?adid=14308&af_wid=2385" target="_blank">If you plan to visit neighbouring cities around Osaka = Nara, Kobe, Kyoto, Arashiyama or even a long trip to Tokyo – it’s best to get a JAPAN RAIL PASS. For me, this is the most economical and fastest way to travel. There are different types of JR passes that you should carefully study and read about before purchasing. For instance if you are only travelling around the Kansai region and not going to Tokyo, buying a Kansai Pass might be a cheaper option but if you want to go to Tokyo (2 hour and 20 minutes only from Kyoto station), then it is best to buy a JR Pass which can save you a lot of money considering a one way ticket from Kyoto to Tokyo will be 13,080 yen (about 160SGD) one way! I was trying to save money and decided to fly domestic airlines from Tokyo to Osaka (which was cheaper but you lose up to a whole day in travelling from city to airport plus hours of waiting around in the airport whereas the JR would only take less than 3 hours).

Unfortunately, Japan has one of the most expensive data plans for tourists in Asia so expect to pay a higher place than neighboring Asian countries. If you travel in groups, the economical option is to pre-book a wifi egg online and collect at the airport (Klook allows you to collect it from various airports such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and Bangkok apparently).

My advise is to arrive at least half an hour before opening time and to come on a weekday instead of weekend (they open 10:30 am on weekends and 11 am on weekdays) to ensure your queue is shorter. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivyjGkEBDgc2zy1c1ZHYqa-dr1YnUG_2bEn-qED_5Dp1Yu4456_DQwTu3G328VGsvZIMzBd5VeLiGX-St1ILBrWqR8uu5SSBOFvz-u3Ee8TTn0_iiFDuML-Lx3IRnLfaIw3P6Z8Q/s1600-h/2017_0618_11081400%255B13%255D"><img width="1152" height="768" title="2017_0618_11081400" style="display: inline;" alt="2017_0618_11081400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEjROTT0PWVS4XfcSHNqTaOkrjkCU4hybdNMqcSNub5R9An8PP1vy9Gs8WIM-6dtHchytB8cUpKXazdCp9ZuW7JawNTMVJCWZ3ikh0qNvUEnpZuarJf2EJTpBAsKvKMhC9iTMUuQ//?imgmax=800"></a></p><p>Their ramen broth is a fish based ramen.

I was quite worried as I couldn’t buy these passes from convenience stores or subway stations but luckily I found out that you can just buy one from the bus driver when you get on though there’s a possibility they could run out of cards. This will save you quite a lot as you hop from place to place. Kyoto easier to get around by bus for me. As long as you get on and off the bus more than three times, you’ve gotten your money’s worth! </p><p><br></p><h2>Menya Gokkei 麺屋 極鶏</h2><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaBExhQHKIWW5B5pdz2Di3Gndf4iH4yIyH0twyr3_TDwj4t2lg8zRce5XWxIsuqv3rqBJWYa5HZ6ESUPZuqFFPW9GEmv831oW-iwhR0dib5GRDx7ruWrPnsgwPQo25v-pnOR5r4A/s1600-h/IMG_20170625_154241%255B9%255D"><img width="1024" height="768" title="IMG_20170625_154241" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20170625_154241" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz67mOrJFNDAh8va0qQ7SLc4z8o4O6NJc3zfHjvRJ9OoY2I2wd_-ah607T1WaiS4Ekrtuwbilmken7gKe9VUaJFNTHXhurSiaTBfYA3s8wvsDh8b3q8fJ5ZwWNR0IZzUygPRFIVg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Menya Gokkei was rated best ramen of 2016 in Tabelog for Kyoto and deservingly so. Located at the famous Ichijoji Ramen Street area, near Ichijoji station. When you are at the queue, they will give you a piece of paper indicating what time to come back, so you can walk around the neighbourhood and don’t have to line up – be sure to keep the piece of paper with you. Gokkei’s ramen is a very thick chicken broth that is so thick that the spoon would float on it – kinda feels like having chicken gravy ramen – my wife did detect a hint of chicken livers which could be the secret to the thickness and flavour. Mmmm ~~</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTzF2sAzhgNV_Sby-iQ964oFDN1XAV13BiuRDM4STM0kXZ4UJgVVuyecM3iWvG0He93Dj7ISyJ77aKo5IRcKd5KrJZgiXKKGNI5fy1I9Pym9C_xTo050AKpmYWTnskcXdOCOBQWg/s1600-h/IMG_20170625_154233%255B9%255D"><img width="1024" height="768" title="IMG_20170625_154233" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20170625_154233" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgxwJ1xxeBlS2XTHpIMTYQ3MxJSqTkM8t4IcXmte-q898VWxjPvG6o-7sE6IQYPnRAeAHetVDD-bZIoPFNVMnC3viN98sFSDZPogRDLofoaB4oxAGwZfDNQ_MdKUIdHqah755TIw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>You can choose original. garlic, spicy or with fish powder – I tried the original while my wife tried the one with the fish powder and both are good – since the original thick broth base is simply awesome! This is really a flavour explosion in your mouth and will definitely leave you feeling super full after enjoying this bowl. I would personally prefer Ginza Kagari’s version as it has a silkier mouth feel but some might prefer Menya Gokkei’s version of chicken ramen! </p><p><br></p><h3 align="center">Menya Gokkei</h3><p>29-7 Ichijoji Nishitojikawaracho Sakyo-ku Kyoto Kyoto (near Ichijoji Station)</p><p>Opening hours: 11:30am – 10:00pm</p><p><br></p><h2>Seabura No Kami セアブラノ神 伏見剛力</h2><p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-acd4mpGyHOo/WV84FnZKVPI/AAAAAAAAtxM/t9WS9aaPpmYvR7In9eim-WqR0JEVKcL3ACHMYCw/s1600-h/IMG_20170621_203639%255B5%255D"><img width="1024" height="768" title="IMG_20170621_203639" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20170621_203639" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgC0w1yMYV4vQK3cUt29teuUz0iQ8f-apYR_rJm-a6iKbi0dBga21VEjQUy6MXwWLeisOT9gI9nInjSfO3Wk_WpKA6zcf-84Y0cTg0cEJNHasF2of05qHSomnE5IVqZ_gFWs29XcQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Seabura No Kami serves Seabura chaccha style ramen where melted pork fat is sprinkled on top of the ramen and you will see small pieces stay afloat (as seen in the picture) to enhance the flavor of the soup.

It is also common for people to visit the three cities of Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto in one go. I personally prefer to stay in one city for a longer period to truly experience the good food and culture of the city. In this guide, I will share with you some of the best places to eat in Tokyo. I spent a great deal of time researching on what to eat through forums and Japanese websites to find where to eat first months before I fly! This guide is based on months of research, then personally tried and tasted by us personally to make it easier for you to plan your food trip to Tokyo, Japan! I will only list the mid range affordable options here as most people won’t want to spend 20k – 30k yen for one meal!</p><p align="center"><br></p><h2 align="center">Travel tip: How to travel around Japan!</h2><p align="center"><a href="https://affiliate.klook.com/jump/city/100-jr-pass/?adid=14308&af_wid=2385"><img width="1295" height="720" title="OrdinaryCar7DayWholeJapanRailPass5" alt="OrdinaryCar7DayWholeJapanRailPass5" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwprm481MrM8ZUB-Am3ThqD2QGPhajkLjU4fmDdP_VCWPrw-uGVrl3NST3Z9c_0M-Lmen9DEH-2MbVbLcv6YFucEnFvGI7_a9usQVZ46ZTmBmEYNO9OzNXEKdIwyZoJJQjwr1eIw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><p align="center"><a href="https://affiliate.klook.com/jump/city/100-jr-pass/?adid=14308&af_wid=2385">If you plan to visit neighboring cities around Osaka = Nara, Kobe, Kyoto, Arashiyama or even a long trip to Tokyo – it’s best to get a JAPAN RAIL PASS. For me, this is the most economical and fastest way to travel. There are different types of JR passes that you should carefully study and read about before purchasing. For instance if you are only travelling around the Kansai region and not going to Tokyo, buying a Kansai Pass might be a cheaper option but if you want to go to Tokyo (2 hour and 20 minutes only from Kyoto station), then it is best to buy a JR Pass which can save you a lot of money considering a one way ticket from Kyoto to Tokyo will be 13,080 yen (about 160SGD) one way! I was trying to save money and decided to fly domestic airlines from Tokyo to Osaka (which was cheaper but you lose up to a whole day in travelling from city to airport plus hours of waiting around in the airport whereas the JR would only take less than 3 hours). Click here or the picture to look at a variety of Japan Rail Passes to save money and time.</a><p align="center"><br><h2 align="center">Travel Tip 2: NO JR PASS? No problem!

Consider that the 72 hour (3 day ticket) is only 18SGD – it’s a very good bargain in Japan where getting from place to place can be super expensive! You can buy a whole stack and use them whenever necessary online! Click here to have a look at the Tokyo subway ticket.

Boy was I wrong! I didn’t realize that for the amount of money I saved on cheaper accommodation – I was paying more for the subway ticket and transit! I didn’t save much money but I did waste a lot of time as I could had booked a nice apartment near Shibuya instead! My advise is to book your accommodation near a JR station if you have a JR pass as it gives you unlimited rides or near any station that is within the Tokyo Subway Metro Ticket line – I personally recommend staying one or two stations away from either Shibuya Station or Shinjuku station. </p><p align="center"><br></p><h2 align="center">Travel tip 4: Airbnb or Hotel?</h2><p align="center"><a href="https://www.airbnb.com/c/tlim130?currency=SGD" target="_blank"><img width="1152" height="769" title="DSCF9929" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF9929" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv1G8jp9vL77Io1UNrJNMWKZWXZdwYX_fLGwzZbjqcEJh6aA9EHE3HmAznV5iUCxbPaOPH_Zbyeb3Lq9W3RL0fnvZGNQDPMFOH3TRLISlXHbu1-68_AFH_Z5lFTVn5pf5yIovz-Q//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p align="center"><a href="https://www.airbnb.com/c/tlim130?currency=SGD" target="_blank">Personally I prefer to use Airbnb rather than Hotel, as they are usually cheaper and if you plan properly and book earlier – you can get very decent places to stay in Tokyo itself. There has been a lot of worries due to the new Minpaku law which resulted in a lot of cancellations of Airbnb bookings around June 2018 but rest assured the current remaining Airbnb listings are registered and ready to go! There are advantages to hotels of course – where food is usually provided, you get lobby and concierge services to help you make restaurant reservations or travel advice, plus you can leave your luggage at hotel lobby if you have a late flight.

Just take a look at these prices at the airport! That is why I suggest when you are booking your Airbnb or hotel – pick one that provides WIFI egg – quite a number of good hosts will let you use their portable WIFI egg! This will help you save quite a bit! <p align="center"><br><p align="center"><a href="https://www.klook.com/activity/1318-4g-wifi-device-osaka/?aid=d2eb459d502205f8&af_wid=2385" target="_blank"><img width="1024" height="760" title="IMG_20170621_112441" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20170621_112441" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-tWXqEoz8BMo/W9lzqzKFEuI/AAAAAAAA1MI/VdXx5K7oI_c2Cd-POAkScIMpq3XmKuctwCHMYCw/IMG_20170621_112441%255B6%255D?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p align="center">What happens if your airbnb host doesn’t offer WIFI egg?

If you travel in groups, the economical option is to pre-book a wifi egg online and collect at the airport (Klook allows you to collect it from various airports such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia and Bangkok apparently).

It is always advisable to buy your tickets before hand instead of buying it at Disneyland/Disneysea itself! You can choose to pick up your Disney pass from either Narita airport, Haneda or in Shinjuku! Personally – I recommend Disneysea as it’s like Disney for adults and I love the Magellan Restaurant there!

The following are my favourite Kaiten Sushi places. In general, Genki Sushi, Kura Sushi and Uobei Sushi are fine – just walk in when the queue isn’t that long. Despite the cheap 100-300 yen per plate prices – the quality will be better than anywhere outside of Japan for these prices. </p><h2 align="center">Nemuro Hanamaru</h2><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-qBdYVqf4Ah-3FyESRkFrifNMONdcCQzPbbXQcduxyRYRw6JjLI8exjBIUCxZMyk6qnz82ZdIoNvFLIkp9YoYobhsWfZJ2mHo-8t8DK4TeobTJ1JGO2wbxAzWEg3Kj3t-Zg4tcw/s1600-h/IMG_20180609_170220%255B5%255D"><img width="1024" height="768" title="IMG_20180609_170220" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20180609_170220" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-3l8mMEmIVR0/W9m7UPBfZKI/AAAAAAAA1NY/A35iku1NI8M4tsWILbtlot6M_Nc6xEIDgCHMYCw/IMG_20180609_170220_thumb%255B2%255D?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p align="center">Nemuro Hanamaru originates from Nemuro in Hokkaido but they have 2 branches in Ginza itself.

What I love about Ginza Kagari is the most flavoursome creamy yet not overly rich broth – you can almost say it’s silky smooth as you slurp it up ~ and the chicken slices are actually super tender that only ONE bite of your teeth is enough to break it into two ~~ the quality of the chicken is superb and the ingredients marry together well to form an enjoyable ramen experience.<p align="center"><br><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJB23z2lNCJr9HVfZ_49Lkdl3ncdu7qlAh65w4Fu_lcbcK8nSvTXnF-7UEJ9OT1pln_E1bc2EfAqW8j9-ZXWq3VTi1UNAywD1HBvUqnKZ_4LJxHVT1WH_y4tFoFk7WCUiZ0rlnpw/s1600-h/IMG_20170617_113648%255B5%255D"><img width="576" height="768" title="IMG_20170617_113648" alt="IMG_20170617_113648" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXVmc8u6oEwCECGvIbl-t2yu4LeZY5QOBTBB7K5-UoZ1QLQRQhL6GYN5aiEbjNM2XrVxeCc2pm4GADO0zYk2mtLWrHORHPEHYiDo3VwaC6Rl04eGYVNgLwTq6QFIDpKjabE_DTCQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><p align="center">They have both ramen and tsukemen but I highly recommend their soup ramen ~ mmmm soooo delicious!<p align="center"><br><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYzciu5PMY_H1qBB8JudOmYs0n9-1j5qYqfNaysNZfJezp7PJAZ_IHVeMqX0ohCe7_ta7W9NKFZJPeD_WxDgV37vXMCuRpMr49VLuwH0gXZyuNCxHNTaWLupe3wed3nt4wfQcvBA/s1600-h/IMG_20170617_120928%255B5%255D"><img width="576" height="768" title="IMG_20170617_120928" alt="IMG_20170617_120928" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7BU24Fj9iAhk05iPNpKb3-qSjnEI7r5z-MZIgTv5y3InyMixSe2XrDZaT5EVwj8wK1vsRn25QHSxC5IP7OZLRGOauMdNcJm5b-Q4nMpuxILoU1UoGgh6fSpFDibUTnL3X57FaJQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><p align="center">I was lost and couldn’t find it initially on Google Maps and got there 15 minutes before opening – this gave me a 90 minute wait under the hot sun!

Despite not highly rated by the Japanese websites, they are always crowded with tourists and I don’t blame them – Ichiran does serve a decent bowl of ramen! If you go during off peak times, the queues are actually not so long – maybe only about 15 minutes wait. Their broth is not too salty and has just the right balanced flavour amongst these ramen chains. There are plenty of branches so just google the ones nearest to you. The only downside you have to peel your own bloody ramen egg!

The one that is the most famous (naturally with the longest queues) are from Rokurinsha, famous for their Tsukemen, with some claiming its the best they’ve ever tasted. My tip is to come here at 7:30am in the morning, when you are transiting on JR or on the way to the airport, there’s minimal queue around this time as compared to peak times of one hour or more.<p align="center"><br><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixWMVa3fTqFrU0ACnnRKnsrWJTsAOFql1oOm_wl6ihIfSf60WHM4fNBjGG6nxjiSDuCSCAB4FH84O-hc3EljlAtsTZl-cA3KQ3z60tKgtj2ipKyITlKU15zLRjJFX9ApOeOaqwcw/s1600-h/IMG_20170621_082545%255B5%255D"><img width="1024" height="768" title="IMG_20170621_082545" alt="IMG_20170621_082545" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0mOV3OJQAon_ElTY9XeSqhbJb4QKxsiWOegwioCKbOH2HHskXcsZgggAw56ULR2PEdMv647p-KxWCIZxEC1UbkQ_586iQAchl-NjjgsXEl4jtARG8ybFL4ec7WtTJN0rPej_XDA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><p align="center">Rokunrinsha specializes in Tsukemen, dipping noodles, the dipping sauce is a thick broth mixture made from pork and fish, you dip the noodles and enjoy slurping them up from the dipping sauce.<p align="center"><br><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicsRzeTKrEOn3s_xAfuaNKtdB5w-N9e7P-4Ov6Oskdhvlsc_TgyHziRXrmQ7NwcBWuGj7DpSI9izYF2tiAVB0oESvWK0H_rOd6slEP2K5khgPlWjsY9DoD1vq6hPUevkUCc759Uw/s1600-h/IMG_20170621_082650%255B5%255D"><img width="576" height="768" title="IMG_20170621_082650" alt="IMG_20170621_082650" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5zlIayT-A5zMw-WjeTjZwCs_reLRDBNzubGfuxSiY_a-Gay0RWZhB3EAaIvRhx8l6bzEK3kufC2ibT5C4vHTG5kaq0YjhD3OBwbB9arU1LheOrv-wCFySfTsOnW4R2Zyg9UzHEw//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a><p align="center">The noodles texture are really good and you can actually see dots of the grains on the noodles. Just like Menya Itto, you will have the option of pouring broth onto the dipping sauce so you can slurp it all up at the end – apparently there’s one with yuzu on it to give it an enhanced fragrance so be sure to go for that. I personally prefer Menya Itto but if you are not willing to travel to Shin Koiwa to queue for the best, then Rokurinsha will be enough to satisfy your tastebuds.<p align="center">Rokurinsha</p><p align="center">Tokyo Ramen Street, Tokyo Station B1 near Yaesu South Exit.<p align="center">Opening Hours: 7:30–10AM, 10:30AM–11PM<p align="center">Note: there’s a Haneda Airport branch as well that opens for 24 hours – I’m unsure if the quality is the same though. <p align="center"><br><h2 align="center">Yoroniku – Best place for wagyu beef! </h2><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9e-lpm1RSX33B2v-y_MODEaMMB-rF9NalIwlt6BtwDVoQw0YP22cAo3jRw5a8MBrzOKh8IkRhNyykQkNOQkGufRH0dyHL8iwjxIa5lIQ2K20bbDYNjAxRpWXBX6dpKH4vxWqe9w/s1600-h/DSCF0146%255B5%255D"><img width="1024" height="683" title="DSCF0146" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF0146" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2EyPsva7qzN9dtfypJaZUtZHupJNyO0_NukBP82itVpksbF0s0ROPTdtF2oC4fJpJu5VpFq3xU4lhPs426MwdMZqCKdHjuQBqijjbS3M_sYG6uliiH5yQMtefSCXQpbwEZHdviQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p align="center">If you want to have the best beef in your life.

I think one of the reason is that they offer very high quality pork that you can’t seem to find anywhere else. Interesting choices of Kiramugi (my personal favourite) breed as well as Yukimuro-Jukusei buta (snow aged pork), while you can also choose your cut of meat! There are also leaner breeds such as the common Kurobuta (Japanese Black Pig) and Iwachu Buta (Rock Pork) and Aguu which is leaner and stronger pork flavour (Okinawa breed)</p><p align="center"><br></p><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2uYasFwxHFStx6_V2WUXOZ0MFkQqlRpxBr-f1esqIWobxlMaKG7vgUrf53KBZal5HBnlPggZzQ1FazZFRfnRFa3b9KDwMqQlLM89V7LNMED00hHAVzi1se6YrQARTGlXEZJBZLA/s1600-h/IMG_20180620_174952%255B5%255D"><img width="576" height="768" title="IMG_20180620_174952" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20180620_174952" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjopilGnEkimzh9PNfw5pjhDfVI9KF1ZFso45oZmFdjXLVlxs2dzx6lHQIXv4QJTBjq_Mq_CIWsfKkiIzG09R1I4ylxkevws5p23y0mmqXlv_EpjMM39ZOnjPtTncwYGbh4uWKTig//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p align="center">My wife prefer the Yukimuro-Jukusei buta because of the tender texture from the snow aging but I felt the Kiramugi was juicier and packs more flavour. Japan would probably be the only place I’ll enjoy pork cooked medium! My personal opinion is that the crust breaks apart too easily and not as enjoyable as Tonta. I felt Tonta lost out on not having a wider or better selection of pork but their breading is definitely better. </p><p align="center">Narikura</p><p align="center">1-32-11 Takadanobaba Shinjuku Tokyo</p><p align="center">Closes on Thursday and Sundays</p><p align="center">Opens: 11:00〜13:30, 17:30〜20:00</p><p align="center"><br></p><h2 align="center">Which is better?</h2><p align="center"><a href="http://www.thanislim.com/2018/01/osaka-food-guide-best-restaurants-and.html" target="_blank"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF1924" alt="DSCF1924" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJ3dMFEmH7CzDt2mTluguIflUhfmFvb4_HBrSjqignB2k2GQeJLLenbLFz7p72lFzEQcFs3Qihw3aEkkP_exvQ9oS8JSRVIxPJNrKYE7pHrZNmVBWR7tdHfvh7EG0e4DDBdGvBrg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p align="center">In terms of the quality of the pork – Narikura would be my choice while in terms of breading and frying skill – Tonta is my choice.

This Taipei food guide would not be similar to your typical tourist spots but will be a good mix of hidden gems where the locals eat at and Taipei iconic restaurants! While Taipei might be famous for their street food and night markets, I personally prefer their restaurants who tend to serve my favourite eats in Taipei.

You might find that it could be more convenient/cost effective to share a ride rather than public transport in Taipei. I find this more convenient as opposed to taking the subway. My Taiwanese friend told me the rental is more expensive near the subway so it is usually quite a distance to walk to the good places to eat even after you took the subway, which is okay if you have plenty of time. I’ll try my best to put the Chinese names of the restaurants so you can just copy and paste the names onto your google map or uber to find it! </p><p><br></p><h2>Getting to and from the Airport to Taipei</h2><p><a style="margin-right: 1em; margin-left: 1em;" href="https://affiliate.klook.com/jump/activity/1478-/?adid=13730&af_wid=2385" target="_blank" imageanchor="1"><img width="480" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe-_PZZc_lwKh0RAv4lM5-zY3eVEXJiBMRf9uE_4FHMSOBY0GVHsbbwC3kYvd5CnvAO_NMc9hOZiVo-EiAr94t1pNR36ZzFPh0AQ3vk3rH9AYO4EyK-SwgHu0TlKf_10ok046X/s640/WhatsApp+Image+2018-01-23+at+5.58.32+PM.jpeg" border="0" data-original-width="960" data-original-height="1280"></a></p><p>Since airport is in Taoyuan, and Taipei city is quite a distance, if you travel solo or in pairs, it might be cheaper to save or take public transport but groups of four and above should consider pre-booking your airport transfers which will be more cost efficient and saves time.

That means all the IG STORIES and Snapchat videos you can upload!! It’s just as simple as booking it online and just collect it at the counter at airport or at the high speed rail. I usually avoid buying it at the counter before the immigration queue (which can be pretty long wait if you don’t go straight in and spend quite a lot of time buying simcards). Instead I book it online through the website first – then collect it after I pass immigration, saving plenty of time. If you are in groups – its always cheaper to buy a wifi egg to share – otherwise, just buy your own simcards if you are solo or couples travelers.

The porkchop here is pretty good but I give high marks to their side dishes that combines very well with the pork chop. If I were to rate on the pork chop alone – Emperor Foods will win, but my overall satisfaction of a meal will come from Dong Yi! </p> <p><br></p> <h3>東一排骨 Dong Yi Pork Chop Main Branch</h3> <h4>61 Yanping South Road, Zhongzheng District, Taipei City, Taiwan, 100</h4> <h4>Nearest MRT: Taipei Main Station</h4> <h4>Opens: 11am – 8:15pm.

The white one is the non spicy creamy one with Chinese herbs. This base is actually quite flavoursome with a good creamy consistency because they have a secret ingredient called tofu ice cream (something I’ll mention more later) while their spicy version has a good kick to it but doesn’t sting and numb your taste buds. If you want to add more broth or you felt the soup needs more oomph, call for the staff and they will add more herbs to flavour it. </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNDyJH0e2HWyM_Qx4qUA4xDadRsmBz57dljYKJPDCNDMZJIr1ibBQDCO-uzWovkG41Ju7_Mm-WwtaQODlxiNC3rL1oLVfZbFG7twTKEpNa15hNei_e3AtWwRf7nqKE_AfP2Z-9Uw/s1600-h/DSCF5021%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="1152" height="768" title="DSCF5021" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF5021" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV8lPPFACwu57qRk4v53y9jp4D_ZCKvOCwdtKuEMsedObA8G9k2L-kCnkqFJbYt5itb2aYm7jKvX_UICJX51edEIhAjemTi5DvnBCYGA2LnPOsPNLtPMh2N9LBluGVrNCT2KIlGg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>THIS!

The owner William himself is an expert fisherman and the restaurant specializes in freshly caught seafood and fish. What’s special here is that the fish are actually caught using fishing rods instead of nets.

William has a passion for both fishing and cooking – and has combined that passion of his to serve the best quality seafood dishes. It was indeed a pleasure to speak to him and have him show his fishing rod collection as well as his freshly caught seafood! While this place is quite difficult to reach by public transport – it is about 20-25 minutes taxi ride from Taipei Main Station. Worth it if you want some good quality seafood – be sure to call and ask about availability of seafood.</p> <p><br></p> <h3>FISH.FISH Seafood Restaurant 魚苑船釣海鮮餐廳</h3> <h4>No.2, Ln. 205, Sec. 2, Anhe Rd., Xindian Dist., New Taipei City 23159 (take taxi)</h4> <h4>Opens: 11AM – 2PM, 5PM – 9:30PM</h4> <h4>Phone: +886 2 2212 0989</h4> <p><br></p> <ins class="klookaff" data-height="280" data-width="336" data-price="true" data-prod="mul_act" data-currency="" data-lang="en" data-actids="1659,825,7935" data-adid="13819" data-wid="2385">

I would highly recommend this place as a must eat in Taipei to get a feel of how the locals eat. The highly recommended dish are the Gao Cha (look like fried tofu cubes) which is actually chicken broth gelatinized into cubes then deep fried – taste like a very silky creamy tofu but better! There’s also lips smacking good clams, silken chicken, sliced pork liver (ooooh yeshh), stir fried oysters and of course the iconic braised pork rice (ru lou fan).</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgi4gPrhGHRj1Ftr0HzkcfX7TkITULoghX78tW0qERkHzYnovCKP4hbpb9Yr40diRQP6V2BCyi6hB3wNyiN2NRXCRn0d7WBjx0G-zJhztO_MPmI_lnjrnzfIuV_coaGDI-knKIh3Q/s1600-h/2015_1013_02012400%25255B8%25255D.jpg"><img width="1152" height="768" title="2015_1013_02012400" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2015_1013_02012400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGOfx3JnqfL-nqRFHIvf8YUgCpKt8gP3iFI9Q3mysU3hrR3RjDtqr9U_trpq7ZLaWp7Q5xZIY-Y3Tv9WD2FeazssEhzyCDX-3GSYUQ4hyphenhyphenMF1x4GlcLpNS5F7sZg63jpgfUDRh7lQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Simple down to earth Ru Lou Fan ~ braised pork rice ~~</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-ZvuEzGqOBeQ/WNUNEEPlJgI/AAAAAAAApbw/SelRB11QcQo/s1600-h/2015_1013_02030800%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="1152" height="768" title="2015_1013_02030800" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2015_1013_02030800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYTiAqxy5t-faHMnoCxHh2Idue_W2_zl9sVYD4kdvMLMZ0NrhyphenhyphenB36RGjknl8SIjZImIa4hqyz5zsVrSIu6OSDAJ7de5GUxsK6DUVUxrzvIRKYZD0m3lRauTwnzUdxgyx3unQdMfA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Pork Liver served in slices ~~ seriously yum! </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3tVC1A5hw37-IrGcgwYL5dqpEHFUxR1DjKACJuBvpUSa33h9Zroh82RXpr2qOWXhJqSzmGlYHkr5XuIirDDd-xIk0-NwA-V5FvCHuZrdaa3kwfCmn3iDartuBS2Q1lAYi7U7DTQ/s1600-h/2015_1013_02044900%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="1152" height="768" title="2015_1013_02044900" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2015_1013_02044900" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-f7sZJ_kEDyo/WNUNGu2SztI/AAAAAAAApb8/Mm2LMLiCmjU/2015_1013_02044900_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Stir fried oysters ~~</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieARR4QvC6gWH7jjs2n8x3MIrEnWwR8V2DN7upockBCnkSP9dm59UhQSB_KliybywHT596IybkjhnxcDxzk4a0G22my-h7XguHGiwCVBogil12i0MZ13IxJFfCi8fVaMBNAo4vvA/s1600-h/14309674_1726833544238031_1340328821_n%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img width="1080" height="911" title="14309674_1726833544238031_1340328821_n" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="14309674_1726833544238031_1340328821_n" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-nYorTUjASnsz7xMbSIbecK0koyAqodX133UJKqcQfFjlGANONJHSD-QpqVdt2VDXvBGCyrzXrQA0GdtLQ-bO-hT6OsBOVUJdMdw29Jf0x7fbmYCawhwDAOjoh_b7jZpKTlK0uQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>You can see the happy foodie soul in me when I was enjoying this spread of Taiwanese cuisine! </p> <p><br></p> <h3>LU SANG Yi Lan Delicacies Restaurant 呂桑食堂</h3> <h4>No. 12-5 Yong Kang St.</h4> <h4>Opens: 11:30AM – 2PM, 5PM- 9PM</h4> <h4>Nearest MRT: Dongmen</h4> <p><br></p> <h2>Second Most Delicious Private Kitchen 第二好吃私房菜</h2> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgW0-6y2Bem3qIZ30rnzGJwerFGX0E1AAqRcJW3WaUd5zkg9c2T65FVYs4JLNvxuQXIPZAVFR5WNKSzsPTDAr9w1tKD7Kxi9riTETefgCIvrRWnrwbQWem8sn8wFhDNOPaIi9sRew/s1600-h/20160912_210832_HDR%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="1365" height="768" title="20160912_210832_HDR" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="20160912_210832_HDR" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-A_EcYIGteIo/WNS-h96szDI/AAAAAAAApYs/sS9ID6xyL4o/20160912_210832_HDR_thumb%25255B2%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Paul brought us to this restaurant that is near Shilin night market and we were very impressed with the food!

The food served here is top notch but also very expensive. If you have money to burn – this place is highly recommended. You can easily spend between 750 to 800 SGD for a table of 10 if you order most of their signature dishes! A lot of people who had dined in here before would say that it’s worth it for the quality. </p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-7buFQSpw9ak/WNUUEFzlTiI/AAAAAAAApdY/2fS2XOpY4Ig/s1600-h/47433_439270291416_1822852_n%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img width="640" height="480" title="47433_439270291416_1822852_n" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="47433_439270291416_1822852_n" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRQblWuD_EBa6OaZxhh2p7L0OoE8tf1fI00UxmrtaIhdeRywWV7N3TpANcp3uEWB4miighNZx_iXgs_7NrLQWe_wI2h5dS5KFN2uaEsRUAxrThkYJZUR76hwZl9YoLXlRNH4nEPg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>They are famous for their abalone glutinous rice stuffed chicken which is pretty expensive but it will seriously warm you up when you have a taste. You need to pre-order this dish I think and it’s around $180 – 200 bnd according to exchange rate at the time I tried. Some of the reviews online describe this as one of a kind soup dish and I have to agree it would be very difficult to find a similar dish this good. Another famous dish here is their version Buddha jump over the wall (around 140 SGD) which earned rave reviews online as well!

You will need to be early (maybe 10 minutes before opening times) if you don’t want to wait very long as with all popular ramen places, there will be a long queue and wait. I arrived early and got the first seat with my wife and we both loved how unique the ramen is. Firstly, the broth is more to the MA LA side, you can select the level of spicy and ma la but I think the normal one is good enough. A seriously good broth that matches well with the delicious charsiu ~~ I have to agree that this is something you can’t even find in Japan! That numbing Mala feel with every slurp is really SIOK!

The theme is promoting the use of tea as a healthy ingredient in their cooking.

You will also see quite a lot of desserts made using tea in the restaurant. Taste wise – it is more to the healthier side and if you got friends who are interested to learn about healthy eating – do bring them here. I have to say food here might be bland in comparison to other places listed in this guide. They got quite a few branches strategically located as well and I’ll share them below. </p> <p><br></p> <h3>Cha For Tea 喫茶新饌</h3> <h4><a title="http://www.chafortea.com.tw/Content/Distributors/distributors.aspx?SiteID=11&MmmID=654272230251716032" href="http://www.chafortea.com.tw/Content/Distributors/distributors.aspx?SiteID=11&MmmID=654272230251716032">http://www.chafortea.com.tw/Content/Distributors/distributors.aspx?SiteID=11&MmmID=654272230251716032</a> – store locator in Taiwan</h4> <p><br></p> <h2>Gao Jia Village Mi Tai Mu 高家庄米苔目 (great after clubbing supper place)</h2> <p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-vfe-AOeAqE8/WNS-n3qUdUI/AAAAAAAApZI/856bGq6oKQU/s1600-h/20160914_234657%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="1365" height="768" title="20160914_234657" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="20160914_234657" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXk1jAQ_HlCw6KHoLa-V8tOa8jl9hZ7Bycx8G1e7ly6tji6gFr5g1pF8C5FuKKWRVGeBZp5MvDVgzCIRagYTX15xjPM6glHP7Cme2FgJkixQ46wabUtfBKtLmKGZNXn7ApLCJNvg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Gao Jia is a famous supper place for the locals and it is located in the ktv drinking area of lin sheng bei lu.

For me, it is okay for you to check it out but I am not a big fan of this and I personally prefer fried popcorn chicken with basil leaves that are popular in most night markets. Try it if you have the time or if its convenient while you are around Xi Men Ding. Though if you are in Kaoshiung, you must check out the Angel Chicken Chop which is nicer! </p> <p><br></p> <h3>Hot Star Large Fried Chicken 豪大大雞排</h3> <h4>No. 36 Hanzhong street Wanhua District, Taipei City, Taiwan 108</h4> <h4>Nearest MRT: Ximen</h4> <p><br></p> <h2>Beans Village 豆花庄</h2> <p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDCQDFMmCrJF4_XeCL2vEqGIy-e0bKdZbKtbhL0nqta_3hqMmQzEBLiwepwQITKn-Jcxn3qGbWlGJY7BFxJDye4HO2IEgowqLs9UowLUCnG94FZXEdOyDhapPYQRQ93WRwg5GEEw/s1600-h/20160911_225211_HDR%25255B16%25255D.jpg"><img width="1365" height="768" title="20160911_225211_HDR" style="border-width: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="20160911_225211_HDR" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtILGq9eFw0kELoQ0IMH-iCCf2vBQjBalj0TX9JP6REv10y-ErGK0NAsVHFnms3QyehAFCYTPiyEH3pa8bFxOBU6FcaBYEo5-UlPjv2LcOF0B119CJriw3ezJOHfKv7jbpqvWBNQ//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p> <p>Beans Village or to be precise, tou fu fah village is a Taiwanese dessert shop with a main focus of tou fu fah, soybean curds, a Chinese delicacy.

Besides enjoying all the outdoor activities of Temburong, one needs to savour the delicacies Temburong as well.

Probably for dates or gathering with friends or business meetings. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgvcDsY8FAE-yYwOEwa71OgVIkx8U7-KwPOpKsmAraQEmk6F_RwmV92FfFbQ7HaRE5vt4AUfqs7VQ2coMleJeLhdbqQPGm_96Z_t9Yr33TJVG8lIUM0ZETHpUu9VJVB-lhVfPT2-A/s1600-h/DSCF8183%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img width="561" height="422" title="DSCF8183" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF8183" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjdO6QUAaQvrCXjKyS_WbE9mFGVv71qO4eI8OswfaPB6gEMHZJA33UP-qYJxbNDjz2DlNXhKbDG-wdUoI2_KVzSoINgLFnChyphenhyphenkkoLMQY9HUkU3IK9htU7TOREDSMaBnxioqfG2a1A//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>If you don’t like peanut butter (I know right? Some people just don’t like them) – there are other spreads to choose from in the menu – such as this simple kaya toast – or you can have them with soft boiled eggs.

Deep fried buns (mantous) with egg mayo. Crispy outer layers and soft inner layers paired with the rich eggy filling. Highly recommended and this is something I would crave for!

I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it – and I must say I highly rate this plate of kway teow. Good caramelization (wok hei) and strong flavours – while using the same type of thinner kway teow used in Penang! Funny thing on my instagram – someone posted and asked if this is the #blogger special – I mean – how can you make a kway teow any more different or special just for a food blogger? A few other readers tried this and gave a high rating to this as well – but of course – some do complain that it’s pretty expensive. I guess it’s normal for places with better ambience – you cannot expect to pay pasar malam or kedai kopi/kopi tiam prices. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3uXqggMh9qu3_bo896Rbg7HR70AwMCx0z56ZQMrUVaydjyl50A37_i53BQXJdEDIZy1rUd4Pot718TYFtFWcsIdM08vgJx4CjMrh2wfL495BefXL__qWtvUACNgQRtEBoemL88Q/s1600-h/DSCF8174%25255B5%25255D.jpg"><img width="565" height="752" title="DSCF8174" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF8174" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGCGg2UPyoUcTlnS9nnGtn0a98HLK9ZAY2YFypZy00GhPVwV1QVZGrxr1DVH8RGoIxPw30-VQm9XsDr_fcceCGsxq3DRjzfB83Vc7D5AeOWlICZJgV1PTOee-OzDo1hVVKo3MUdA//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Last but not least is my absolutely favourite drink in Pappa Rich. This is their Soy Milk, with pudding and grass jelly. The contrast of the soft pudding and the slightly firmer texture of the grass jelly goes very well with the fresh soy milk (ordered daily from a local supplier. Now if they could serve this with black sesame ice cream (available only in Malaysia branches.. sniff sniff) this would be the most epic beverage in Brunei. Highly recommended! I actually can finish two of these on my own! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnteS_NyUPBAMvXiqiepoGpRkM2ir2vAIkRok25RrWYVbBosG_LkjOR4_Ldh4v-lsDEPtI6pDJpAxu92etjCSLza719h8bwEmJ7BOqQbqN8G7liFFr09PpU1KFjJ805wLbH9s2Ow/s1600-h/DSCF8166%25255B4%25255D.jpg"><img width="561" height="422" title="DSCF8166" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-left: 0px; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="DSCF8166" src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/--EAQ8YTCgVE/U06lN-jYrVI/AAAAAAAAMRI/QGrrPkWM6SU/DSCF8166_thumb%25255B1%25255D.jpg?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Bottomline, I can say the food maintains their standard in Pappa Rich and has quite a loyal following in Brunei. People would always debate about the price point – since you can get pretty much most of the food for cheaper prices in other kedai kopi or kopitiam – which would be an unfair comparison considering the extra costs of interior design, maintenance as well as franchise fees. It would be more fair to compare their pricing to other cafes or franchises in Brunei.</p><p><font size="4"><strong>PappaRich Brunei</strong><br>ANSH Restaurant,<br>Block G, Ground Floor,<br>Abdul Razak Complex,<br>Gadong, BE4119,<br>Brunei Darussalam.<br>Tel: +673-2432333</font></p>Thanis Limhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07513269620661996486noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33838828.post-28386490399044612542020-01-08T21:00:00.001+08:002020-01-08T21:00:24.964+08:00KFC BRUNEI WHITE BBQ CRUNCH!!<p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1QIvYGG7aB97SymvrmlK15vd_oEAFlZ4q"><img width="1024" height="768" title="IMG_20200108_153002" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20200108_153002" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1G6Sjtpg7IaxDFq16_40B2FOu8sb4ApvG" border="0"></a></p><p>When I was invited to check out the new White BBQ Crunch, I was expecting something cheesy and creamy.

<p>My foodie friend Ken actually tapao the KFC and brought it home to do his own photoshoot. Talk about commitment to food photography! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1QYxAZHI_dzz-dh7uhi2jR0-nomr5pbx4"><img width="1440" height="1078" title="IMG_20190723_161150" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20190723_161150" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1VR6HbUd04yhNXRrfdpt_72xMAHWXOHVP" border="0"></a></p><p>After seeing those delicious looking pics ~~ how can I resist? I decided to check out the new Serusop branch of KFC.

But of course – I’m here to enjoy the food too ~~ </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1KDHhTFfJFpcI6p0rMATzix2JMMUfQADx"><img width="1440" height="1075" title="IMG_20190723_160836" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20190723_160836" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=19igypZvwoXPeEurNRndBS9Lf_SosJVqN" border="0"></a></p><p>I asked the KFC staff about what’s unique about the Green Chili Crunch. They told me it’s an original play of fresh and vibrant flavours of parsley, lime and chili. In keeping with KFC’s plan to offer exciting new flavours to a Finger Lickin’ Good meal, this new addition to the menu will satisfy those seeking a different spicy lime kick to their KFC meal. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1omMlzjej1-UC6u4CcOUPOWCicte_QW1n"><img width="576" height="768" title="IMG_20190723_161429" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20190723_161429" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1mLwY-DX_S94r11UDNVMY7IiRjuiA6wq1" border="0"></a></p><p>“At KFC, we pride ourselves in making the best fried chicken to satisfy all crunchy and savoury cravings. We also aim to create new flavours to excite our customers. In our latest KFC Green Chili Crunch, the medley of herbs and spices certainly makes you feel like you are on the greener side of life,” said Mr. Ooi, General manager of KFC Brunei. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1Nepn0YMM1G9xd-XDucCzM1u6ceSrmvrU"><img width="1440" height="1080" title="IMG_20190723_161657" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20190723_161657" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1_5iU7G243oMOB_c5TudEcVTBDxTfPH13" border="0"></a></p><p>At first glance ~~ I am intrigue by the lush green colours of the fried chicken. It felt like crushed pistachios or matcha ~~ which is normally seen on desserts ~~ but the aroma of the spices kicked in as I was taking this macro shot ~~ ahhh I’m gonna be expecting quite a spicy chili taste ~~ mmm ~~</p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1E7m60cbYix6Ro1iJ9aAc_7FnGdJOtwq7"><img width="1206" height="1280" title="WhatsApp Image 2019-07-22 at 12.28.52 PM" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="WhatsApp Image 2019-07-22 at 12.28.52 PM" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=10vsIIRieSKXNU2_nkLlxMFtKlGxXokEI" border="0"></a></p><p>The KFC Green Chili Crunch is available in a 2-pc and 3-pc chicken combo as well as Box meal. Priced from BND 7.50, each combo meal comes with KFC’s signature sides and a drink. The Box meal comes with a piece of KFC Green Chili Crunch chicken, zinger burger, sides and a drink. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1BZ-Bdc5gBEz5EFFQ8zHs7U2t_SHs6EKo"><img width="1440" height="1077" title="IMG_20190723_161858" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20190723_161858" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1dJgKN7mS8GYtF1YJEB43Lnmdr2KKi-T4" border="0"></a></p><p>I think the Box meal would be amazing but I think the 2 pc meal for today with their mashed potatoes and coleslaw should be sufficient for me. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1rCBU6uN5_UUZewq21GASNdje5Zcgye3o"><img width="1440" height="1075" title="IMG_20190723_161627_1" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20190723_161627_1" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1sZ8g88av6BrEQ3G79UbI60j9eZwALXnY" border="0"></a></p><p>Personally I can see why my Sabah friends were raving about this. The flavours of limey spicy taste on the crispy skin as I bite onto really packs a punch and is very suitable to the South East Asian taste buds. Karen Lee, my foodie friend also shared the same feeling and enjoyed this very much! <blockquote class="instagram-media" style="background: rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 1px; padding: 0px; border-radius: 3px;

Winner, winner, chicken, dinner! . "Step into the greener side" @kfcbrunei has just announced a new flavour of fried chicken! Don't worry, its not spinach chicken despite the colours. . . With a harmonious blend of parsley, green chilli and lime, this chicken reminds me of Indonesian spicy but zestier - like a kind of chimichurri flavour. Did I mention its aromatic too? . . Most of the flavours are concentrated on the crispy and crunchy skin. I really enjoyed this flavour since I like spicy food and the slight zest amps up the flavour profile even more. . . Give this a try and let me know what you think! . . Swipe for other yummy finger food- shrimp nuggets & popcorn chicken!</a></p> <p style="padding: 8px 0px 7px; text-align: center; color: rgb(201, 200, 205); line-height: 17px; overflow: hidden; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-top: 8px; margin-bottom: 0px; white-space: nowrap; -ms-text-overflow: ellipsis;">A post shared by <a style="color: rgb(201, 200, 205); line-height: 17px; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal;" href="https://www.instagram.com/venturingfoodie/" target="_blank"> Karen</a> (@venturingfoodie) on <time style="line-height: 17px; font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" datetime="2019-07-24T04:49:58+00:00">Jul 23, 2019 at 9:49pm PDT</time></p></div></blockquote> <script async src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1wFIGLXQiBmC-O6E6cVeV_hw7DIUl1mEW"><img width="1440" height="1080" title="IMG_20190723_161947" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20190723_161947" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1VXLsQc72Q67CW6rfrCNwvjNaIG5DOZ8y" border="0"></a></p><p>The best part is actually taking a hot spicy bite from the crunchy chicken ~~ then take a cooling bite of coleslaw ~~ and sip of iced cold Pepsi ~~ ooooooo ~~ then repeat again ~~~~ </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1dPXd3bjA8tMVnVwFzBwVOBg8hntCn2MQ"><img width="576" height="771" title="IMG_20190723_161916" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="IMG_20190723_161916" src="https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1IPo9z6um__jZWlkhdT_00OZm_J24K5MQ" border="0"></a></p><p>I admit I’m pretty fond of these spicy prawn nuggets from KFC.

So what you need to do is to rename EVERY single Open Live Writer album you have in the past to other names such as Open Live Writer 1 or Open Live Writer 2 – MAKE SURE YOU DON’T DELETE THE ALBUMS or your previous pictures will not show up in your older blog posts. Just rename every single one of them and click on the TICK to save! <a title="https://photos.google.com/" href="https://photos.google.com/">https://photos.google.com/</a> I had to rename so many albums! Note: Renaming your albums will not lose your photos in your old blogposts so don’t worry! </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDHqLkLaj47676GfItps8SwiV5F-wdjmraZqnuLtZnBvChp1tSZh6WybSXBeEIMOkZLAYBjIyqdSlrNhyPONEH_yGRRPGv-ioIBDG9pAYmlkyNS6HBfCahXxJRbQI_i-kmuVqh/s1600-h/newerror%255B9%255D"><img width="349" height="230" title="newerror" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="newerror" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaATKant8B1S2zINvskCuKQZ1G85w4258vl-xSjQ1UMbXvOdvnFRM7SzzK2LV5-CmTVDzXe_xO1A2ALH2QGLnk20xvC69lhG-8-5TBH-8STte4uaC_WlBQdvUJGSB1F5GKiJvG//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>After doing that – you might still get this error again! Firstly, make sure there are no more OPEN LIVE WRITER albums in your google photos (even the empty Open Live Writer albums). Now – once you make sure you renamed every single album – then close your Open Live Writer and RESTART your computer – my open live writer only worked after I restarted my computer! Congratulations!

Besides that Chiang Mai is regarded as a hipster city, a popular spot for cafes and chillaxing. Of course – Chiang Mai is famous for the good Northern Thai cuisine that is different from what you see in Bangkok. This guide will take you to the best restaurants and best cafes in Chiang Mai. </p><p><br></p><h3>Where to stay?</h3><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibZfHIN66-HqV5q0hJWXk5VKSavd7-fdfThjOePhEqp1bQu_GGirrzq_irplcc5UEyz5pYTADB4Dwy8mrQEWS7i7lblNcGuUD4frrXBcB1KnEfvZHNinTZx0XWVOZM5nrY0LsLJw/s1600-h/2017_0902_11584900%255B9%255D"><img width="1776" height="1184" title="2017_0902_11584900" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2017_0902_11584900" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-aCr42li5_fc/WgRrnluQBII/AAAAAAAAwFQ/UPapw2wZeLAC3vABPEmqz54dWG48EmU5gCHMYCw/2017_0902_11584900_thumb%255B3%255D?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>There are a few areas to consider when picking where to stay. Generally I would stay either in Old City area or Nimman area. The Old City is a lovely place to walk around early in the morning to get a feel of the walled up old city – near many Chiang Mai eateries while Nimman in general is more hip and modern, with numerous cafes and also a big Maya lifestyle mall, as well as where the happening night life and my favourite Warm Up Cafe is situated. If you don’t mind staying in a quieter area – anywhere near the riverside is fine since taking a Grab Car to the Old City is around 40-60 baht, to Nimman round 80 – 120 baht. If you love cafes and partying – Nimman is the area for you – since it is near most of the popular chillax spots and clubs, and 60-80 baht Grab Car ride to the Old City. </p><p><br></p><h2>Getting Around in Chiang Mai</h2><p><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-rXt-SwENp9Y/WgLYLFggM0I/AAAAAAAAv9o/Lju5arjGwzAV_gZ81wL7t-SR13fY0Si8QCHMYCw/s1600-h/2017_0907_09554500%255B9%255D"><img width="1776" height="1184" title="2017_0907_09554500" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2017_0907_09554500" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-WY7t7joH8X8/WgLYM6UXcxI/AAAAAAAAv9s/WjYLxUim_YQ9aFL-uy3eNMHnrvU5Qa7OACHMYCw/2017_0907_09554500_thumb%255B3%255D?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>I am all for supporting the local economy but numerous first hand experience from friends using the local red taxis and tuk tuk have been terrible and not recommended. It is best to use Grab app when you are in Chiang Mai – especially from the airport. We tried to use Uber but there’s a surcharge for airport pick ups so Grab is my choice for getting around at the moment. Points to note – try not to get a Grab car near places where there are lots of tuk tuk and red taxis hanging around as they are very anti-uber or anti-grab. I’ve seen local tuk tuk drivers getting angry when they see tourists being picked up by Grab or Uber drivers. For the food locations – Google Maps will be your best friend in helping you plot your food hunt in Chiang Mai. All the restaurants and cafes here can be found by just typing the name on Google Maps. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-ACg7AwOz-hrcvBsVzmS73T5hXpjw8eALsZ4ELgkpkgd1d5j88uhxnyasKv7jmb17KFI2SKLpGmAr0T5VlisCuSNbRuTY9e8NhoOYyze3G1ThPhyiLAHWsisGYxkCkMnV5NUF6A/s1600-h/2017_0902_10360300%255B9%255D"><img width="1776" height="1184" title="2017_0902_10360300" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2017_0902_10360300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTlvT_FrnI7PeclQRVEOwzI6jW5GtcSKSZvqcEVf5euJ31KS71QqsekvHLkfXAI0EPFhqJteiglw0g_Rc7YtxarYx_T2L0WUrooUtdv6HWDE-QvPBplpum8FG1db6GbOb-Igns2g//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Renting a motorbike or bicycle is also a good way to get around if you are adventurous ~~~</p><p><br></p><h2>Best Restaurants in Chiang Mai</h2><p><br></p><h3>Khao Soi Khun Yai</h3><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjeukHa7jy11I4btFd2nj5Cdw83wm-0HuPXlNA8LADjm3DUwgGDucm-MvYsCOggM80edVGykDzhdbe9oK6ocjR8QeutcEJwSzeHWI37hHZGg56v0WZrm1mGEgpAkqWKwM9bBRFl6Q/s1600-h/2017_0902_11461100%255B5%255D"><img width="1776" height="1184" title="2017_0902_11461100" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2017_0902_11461100" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEin_q4i6aGNDUdT3r4atU79qO57gq61VLUBoSOdB6bzi7wRhjl9ijqk-H6A5UV1-kINKpU4kjzobjMkZ4AJG819xhMvRUzJlXa41FqLCbRVYespTvLrxYeDpY-y04s_dQkaZf8dXg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>One of the must try items in Chiang Mai is the famous Khao Soi – which some can say is Thailand’s answer to Laksa in Malaysia. What I like about Khao Soi Khun Yai is the combination of two types of noodles: crispy fried and bouncy flat noodles soaking in a lovely gravy. Khao Soi Khun Yai is the most famous Khao Soi in Chiang Mai. </p><p><br></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_us0N-ptNhBT4nNUewbCDQpsY04M23My6rqwTyhXb6JU6Roqn-HuekbHUXxxcUJftcpobezTjojtHP_SAdqYv0JuvzmiEWvahPJiHwcODmLRnJZd1IbjJ2aYijGJYD7h92a3VMg/s1600-h/2017_0902_11420600%255B5%255D"><img width="1776" height="1184" title="2017_0902_11420600" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2017_0902_11420600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi20ZK5zeo8s97P9iqIkQcUNpnLW4zRWmqa-PoKUBjxwpp9lmEa1DbUZJaBwO-pYNWe_wbXh0iXVcqCQllnSMV7mJtMYtWaI9oOaql22NPFxyIFyc_vRu3TKkNMTLK407huGTHomg//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Khao Soi Khun Yai (also known as Grandma’s Khao Soi) is easy to spot – right in between two temples and just walk in through a rusty gate. Notice that the opening hours are pretty short and they sell out pretty fast! For me – I was there right at 10am sharp to be one of the first to eat here! Worth it! </p><p><br></p><p>Khao Soi Khun Yai</p><p>Tambon Si Phum, Amphoe Mueang Chiang Mai, Chang Wat Chiang Mai 50200, Thailand</p><p>Opens: 10am – 2pm Closes on Sundays. </p><p><br></p><h3>Khao Soi Mae Sai</h3><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTMZfvW-RVwsET8fKqf2o3ECkJ5qe5HNqfyZhLRg6Pyl_wBbfCZRnBfmk3KZr5UZnK80MMUsUgBjBOHzOCETlgaIw0YbFb5WjTt_s5E-b_vsgyi68KQxok9Xygd19O7JJLM40yxw/s1600-h/2017_0905_11062700%255B5%255D"><img width="1776" height="1184" title="2017_0905_11062700" style="border: 0px currentcolor; border-image: none; display: inline; background-image: none;" alt="2017_0905_11062700" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirVzGoM3MIyJrvT4F6j5PIqSR-j_LhCy_vMDCeQ1YgGMcfqijQsrK8fVqrsUgBAQd7C2JYXMz67oijVF_GT2UiG_ixRDoQosnXFe3Yd6eUKF9r4IdYQZ2Mt9TL_f0G6cE9bfa-1A//?imgmax=800" border="0"></a></p><p>Khao Soi Mae Sai is my favourite Khao Soi in Chiang Mai, since it has the richest tasting broth packed with flavour!
