Enmaru Izakaya

Our decision to visit Enmaru Izakaya was an impulsive one. Which meant we made no reservations and I didn’t do any research beforehand (I like to read up on the restaurant and learn their signature dishes and know what to expect).

So, let me start off by telling you that we didn’t try any of their signature dishes….oops.  But, their non-signature dishes got me intrigued enough to blog about this izakaya restaurant.  This restaurant originates from Japan and features beautiful robatayaki grilled dishes. Read more >>

Nicholini's Lobster Angel Hair

Nestled on the 8th floor of the Conrad Hotel is one of my favorite Italian restaurants, Nicholini’s. In my view, this Northern Italian fine dining restaurant is one that doesn’t get the attention it deserves.

This grand, opened-spaced restaurant with floor-to-celing windows overlooking the Admiralty buildings exudes a warm and subdued ambiance.  Some might say the classic decor feels a bit dated, but I personally don’t mind it.
