realised that håakon has taken over soup stock tokyo over at 313 somerset, and decided to try it for dinner (the menu was tempting enough- they have all-day breakfast!).

we got three mains to share- the lean protein platter ($15.90), salmon & zoodles ($12.90) and the avocado vegan bowl ($10.90). strangely enough, we actually waited for quite a while before our food was ready for collection. i thought that the items were pre-prepared, and they would only need to assemble them.

i'll be honest here- i had high expectations for this place, given that it's a) out of the way; b) hipster-ish; and c) clean food. J and i arrived separately, and we were both startled by how empty the entire mall was. thrive kitchen was perhaps the only thing open, save for another japanese restaurant.

i've been eyeing fat prince's brunch for the longest time, but because their last order timing is pretty early at 2.30 p.m., it's been hard.

we finally managed to make our way over one rainy saturday afternoon. liked the vibe of the place- it was laidback and chill; the perfect place for a rainy saturday brunch.

came by for a weekday brunch with L sometime earlier this year, and really liked their brunch food. too bad, though, that they only offer brunch up to 6pm, thus eliminating it as an option for dinner (their dinner menu doesn't tempt me quite as much). had some time to myself on a rainy saturday afternoon, and decided to head over for a late lunch.

wanted some café food for brunch with L, and strangers' reunion came to mind, because of how much i enjoyed the food at their sister café curious palette. we came over on a late friday morning, and were surprised to see that while the café was not full, it was buzzing with activity. (i guess that's how strangers' reunion has managed to survive through the years.)
