Food Tour 49 - Around the World

Guess I have been really adventurous in my food choices lately, because I can actually do a post on the different cuisines. All these cuisines are rather distinct in taste on their own, so they should really bring your tongue on a world tour!

1. Kapitan

This was a recommendation from my bestie. Apparently, the owner's son is pretty popular in the social media space, for good reasons too since he is pretty cute. Dumpling is not very uncommon in our Chinese culture but I have never tried Russian/ Ukraine dumplings. The place is decorated with curiosities, but what really impressed me was their thoughtful services. We came in a pair and the owner quickly topped up one of the dishes when she realised the dumplings served was an odd number. <3

Food-wise, it was an interesting twist to our versions of  dumpling and was delicious. Not sure how authentic they are yet, but I know a Russian so I will ask. It is definitely not cheap, but given the ingredients and novelty, I would still make another trip down. :D

2. Kafe Utu

I always felt I was a pretty easy-going person when it comes to food. Guess what, I don't like African food. This place is awesome in terms of ambience and given the queue, I am pretty sure I am an abnormality. The flowers and plants deco at their waiting area would just blow your mind away. I just don't really like non-spicy curry-looking stews and their spices just hit me in the wrong way. Even their desserts were interesting but didn't leave me as deep as an impression. It is more of an one-time novelty for me. I probably wouldn't initiate any meet-up there given the price is not the most affordable. 

3. Sofra

Turkish food is apparently a hot favourite in my family. Even my kids love it. Just a caveat, I love lamb so if you are not into gamey meat, you probably won't share the same taste as me. Turkish food is apparently also pretty diabetic-friendly. This was one of my go-to place when I had gestational diabetes. Price-point, it is also very affordable. Plus point for being located in one of the more kids-friendly mall - Marina Square <3

To more reviews next month, all this food-eating is making me hungry!
