Winner!
Andre Hoeden
ONE FM's #1 Breakfast Show
Weekdays 6am to 10am
"I'd never tried rice-fed beef until I came here, and it's even better than grass or grain-fed. The wagyu beef set ($54) is a fusion steamboat - French soup bases like bouillabaisse and beef consommé with premium Japanese ingredients."
Sakurazaka
24, Greenwood Avenue
Shan Wee
The Escape Plan with Shan and Cheryl
Weekdays 4pm to 8pm
"In the Big Breakfast ($24), the poached eggs get their own dish. #elitism"
Symmetry
9, Jalan Kubor
Shaun Tupaz
ONE FM's #1 Breakfast Show
Weekdays 6am to 10am
"The Mega Half Spicy Chicken ($18) is marinated for 12 hours in some out-of-this-world Korean seasoning. I've never been to Korea, but I'm sure this is what the real deal would taste like."
Chicken Up
Parkway Parade, #01-10
Desiree Lai
9-5 No Repeat Workday
Weekdays 10am to 1pm
"It felt like I was in Japan for a while because almost everyone there was Japanese. We chose the wagyu beef loin and pork shabu shabu buffet ($45) and were delighted to see such generous servings. Ate so much, my tummy felt like it would explode."
Azmaya
Riverside Village, #01-12/13
Cheryl Miles
The Escape Plan with Shan and Cheryl
Weekdays 4pm to 8pm
"There's something about fire in my food that brings out the cavewoman in me. This full slab of chargrilled honey-glazed pork ribs ($36) is delightfully flambéed in bourbon. Soak up the sauce with baguette."
Hive by Wala Wala
Furama RiverFront, #01-01
Jill Lim
The One FM Reality Check
Weekdays 8pm to midnight
"The creamy chicken pasta is only $7 and the salmon penne ($8) is amazing, too. Italian on a budget, this place is one of the better Western food joints found at coffee shops."
Il Piccolo
Block 78C, Toa Payoh Central
Elliott Danker
ONE FM's #1 Breakfast Show
Weekdays 6am to 10am
"I went for the signature Academics Breakfast ($25), which was probably the most satisfying breakfast I've had in weeks. Wash it down with a cup of flat white. Perfect."
The Coffee Academics
