Wildfire Burgers @ 80 Bencoolen St (Nafa Campus 1 Wing A)

Recommendations: Beef Burgers, Craft Beers and Fried Chicken

Burgers are already awesome, how about adding Bafun Narabi Uni on top of your burger? A #threepointgold best seller!

🛎Limited Edition Ebi Uni Burger @ only $28+ (until end of Feb 2021):

👉Chunky 🦐Prawn Patty 

👉Squid 🐙Ink Aioli

👉Bafun 🇯🇵Narabi Uni 

#winliao #shiokdao #takemymoney 💸

Not to mention that the toasted brioche bun is another bonus (maybe become 四点金). Loti is an important part of the burger, it could make or break your day!!!

1 row of Bafun Uni will easily cost you $20++, so do your own math on the burger cost!!!

For Uni lovers, they are only charging you $15+ for an additional row top up. 🤤🤤🤤One more row!!! Better than 🛫flying to Japan (since you cannot fly now), simply no brainer.

I got a secret deal 🤫 with one of the handsome server, he turned my classic cheeseburger into a Uni-fied Atas Shit Japanese Fusion Cheeseburger going for only $24+

Will recommend you to eat your Uni burgers without the top bun to fully appreciate the freshness out of every bite into the Uni. Otherwise it might be just mashed into the brioche bun like a butter spread.🤷‍♂️

Everything fits perfectly and there is no need to further describe, you simply gotta taste it for yourself.

We ordered some of their black horse items and the fried chicken turned out to be quite good as well. Thick cripsy batter on the outside, juicy succulent flesh on the inside. 

For as long as your stomach and wallet can accommodate, I will recommend to get your fill and gobble while you can. They even sell burnt basque cheesecake where we have no room for it. Gotta give it a shot when we return!

Time to make your moves, FiveGuys and Shakeshack.

Kure Menya (Chicken Collagen Broth)

Rating: 💎💎

Kure Menya @ CBD Frasers Tower #02-11

Need a cozy CBD lunch fix near Tanjong Pagar? Why not give the Chicken 🐔 Ramen broth a try? There's no pork no lard, #halal for the community as well.

Their Rich Gao Gao Chicken (够力够力鸡汤) Collagen💆‍♀️ soup comes with chewy thick noodles. Although I prefer QQ noodles, the texture is somewhere in between QQ and flat.

Their char siew has so much TLC 🥰 that you know its well seasoned and tender. They have another sukiyaki version which I find it a bit over marinated for my liking. The black fungus, is acquired taste, so I leave you to google the health benefits.

Saving the best for last, the chilli paste just feels like Robin to Batman, it's a duo spicy kick combo! 🌶🌶 It's not very spicy according to Singapore standards. So give it a shot if you are open to it.

Wanted to know how good is the broth. 1p minutes after your meal, if you don't feel the urge to sip any drinks, viola! 真材实料! 赞👍赞!

Tucked away at a corner of level two Frasers Tower, they will need some highlights to attract the lunch crowd. Nice, clean simple ambience for your lunck kakis.

To end with a good note, #entertainer allows you to enjoy such a great value bowl at less than $6-$9, where to find sia??? In addition, you can still earn your #grabpay #favepay rewards points. No Credit Card payment for now.

Na Na Curry

Na Na Curry (南南咖哩) @ 115 Bukit Merah View #01-47

Recommends: All Curry Dishes? 😋😋😋

This stall needs no recommendations. Simply on 🎯Point!!! 

When you buy a property, is about location, location, location. What makes a good curry dish? Curry, curry, curry! (I'm not trying to curry flavour the dishes 😉)

(Usually they are sold out before their closing time, please arrive by 630pm to be safe)

If you cannot take spicy, don't buy.

If you cannot take thick gravy, don't buy.

If you cannot take mutton, don't buy! Cause the mutton curry is da bomb! 

(see the thick mashed curry sauce on the bread? Looks like your pores close-up when watching a 4K TV screen)

I have been having them since I was young and way before Mr Michelin (Bib Gourmand) came to drop by. Despite the fame they received, their prices are still kept at a reasonable $3-$4 and wallet friendly level. 

👍Kudos to the owners of such stalls and I will continue to support them for as long as my curry cravings continues.

Till we curry again! 😋

Joyus Pastries

Joyus Pastries @ Tanjong Pagar MRT Basement (#B1-03)

Recommends: All time favourites 🍍Pineapple Tarts ($25), Hae Bee Hiam (Nonya 🦐Prawn Rolls), Chocolate Chip, Almond and Cashew 🥜Nut Cookies

Still haven't got your CNY goodies? Last three days to grab yours through walk ins to Joyus Pastries outlets. Long queue every CNY cannot go wrong. 

Bought a few pineapple tubs for my colleagues and everyone came back with awesome feedback. The tarts are crispy and well coated with its buttery fragrance. The oversized sweet pineapple fillings with chewable strands are just worth your calories. I had 2 tubs of them and now left with only 30% 😋😬😅 (haven't CNY gonna finish liao). Protip: Planning for 2022 CNY, buy them before a certain date for bigger discounts. 🥰

Since we cannot shout Huat ah, just have to buy a few tubs of Pineapple tarts and roll them at home. Hope the God of Fortune (财神爷) can come and overcome them. 🤑🤑🤑

Blanco Court Prawn Mee

Blanco Court Prawn Noodles @ 243 Beach Road

Recommends: Jumbo 🦐Prawn Noodles, 🐖Pork Ribs and Pork Tail Noodles.

Your local prawn noodles staple that packs a punch every single time. Their dry version comes with their unique chilli sauce that is slightly sweet🍬, lil spicy🌶 and combined with a tinge of prawn broth umami. Prawn size depends on your wallet size from $6 (latest price list) - $12 (Jumbo ones) with a variety of combination of pork ribs or prawns. I love the pork tail prawns combo.

Their gao gao prawn broth is refillable so make sure you get enough of it before your butt leaves the place. When the queue 👯‍♂️👯‍♀️👯‍♀️ gets long during the peak hours, do get your dose of fried fritters (五香虾饼) while waiting. 

The fried fritters just completes the ala carte prawn noodles set menu. With fresh and wide variety of prawn crackers, tofu skin, ngoh hiang, hey zhou, fish ball, cuttlefish balls, pi da (century eggs), dou gan (beancurd) and many more. Sure to leave your belly calling for more! Every order comes with the pinkish sweet and mahogany spicy sauce, fantastic way to start your week! 

(latest price list which they have just adjusted in Feb 2021)

Not recommended for first date💞, but second dates can proof worthy of how your date can withstand a coffee shop style dining without the aircon. 

They have a few brother-owned shops of prawn noodles. I also like their East Coast Beach Road Prawn Noodles. Note this place closes on Tuesday. 

Torii Izakaya

Torii Izakaya (32 Duxton Road)

Rating: 💎💎

Your Saturday night fever with Yakitori (more than just grilled chicken skewers) and Happy Hour!🍻 Typical japanese theme izakaya wannabe with colourful paintings on walls and (koi fish) ceilings to set the ambience.

We came for the 50% off grilled skewers and beer happy hour. Perrrrrfect combo! 🙌

Deep fried tempura and grilled skewers 🍡 were crispy and tasty although some skewers were plated lukewarm. Feedback was provided and service recovery was prompt and well done. Recommending their chicken skin, tebasaki, salmon belly and beef skewers. The chicken skin was shhhhhoooo goood! Recommend double ✌✌order at least!!! We also included some 🍄 to act healthy.

No combining of either Entertainer or Burrple Beyond with the Happy Hour 🎊 promotion. Well, you cant have the best of both worlds right?🧐 Saw some tables having the Donburis but we ran out of belly storage. Gotta return for another round of Donburis and catch up with friends. 

Guys, if you need a place to impress ur date and yet compress your spending, this might be the place. Plus, free iced water served 😉. Prolly better to show off how much alcohol you can Hoot without getting wasted, not for the underaged...

The power of three (3)

What is the power of three ideology (#三点金)?

"#Trinity" in short - Everything and anything that appears in three or multiples of three. 

(image from @Cartier, wanted to tag @Chanel and @Chopard too, but couldn't find any Trinity related. Why I choose only brands starting with "C"? 🤫)

Examples:

- Top 3 standing (who remembers the 4th?)

- Three cups coffee or words or topics

- Beautiful (3 syllables word)

- #FTW (For The Win)

(Coffee from @Craftsmenspecialtycoffee)

You may have already know "For The Win" lingo, but do you know it also stands for Food, Travel and Wine? It only gets better from here. Imagine if you read it in reverse, WTF. Wuuuuhooooooo 😗 it can go many places from there and I will share my 2 faves, What The Fuck and Where The Food? You will get the drift...

My three point gold Ideology (三点金) theme for my stories will revolve around FTW with a twist. 1) Food is obvious with a simple 3 point rating. 2) Travel is limited right now because of one freaking weirdo who ate some tonic bat soup 🥘 and inflicted the planet Earth with the infamous COVID virus. If you know him or her personally, please send my best regards to that person. I really want to know how the soup taste like so I can rate it. 

The last one is 3) Whine 🤭 instead of Wine 🍷. What is Whine? Everything about your life that is not going the way you wanted. I always believe Feng Shui (风水) Geomancy is only needed in times of bad luck, when you are riding on Cloud 9, who needs to care about pointed arrows and 小人?

For now, I am still trying to establish my design and structure for my stories. Stay for more and follow my IG @threepointgold.

Don't swipe away...

(I kinda like this statement: "God is said to be trinity in unity")
