Eat & Drink: Aunty Kim's Korean Restaurant

My mum had been secretly complaining to me that she haven't been eating out since I was hospitalised. Further more, after I was discharged, I needed to stay home for confinement, thus, she had to cook for me everyday.

So on my first off day after I report back to work, I bought dad and mum out to our favourite Korean restaurant for dinner - Aunty Kim's Korean Restaurant.

Aunty Kim's Korean Restaurant had been here for a long long time. It is located along the stretch of Upper Thomson Road. Usually, it is fully seated at about 7pm. We were here early that day at 6pm, thus, it was still quite empty.



There is only 2 outdoor tables, and the rest are indoors.


All tables are nicely set.


These are complimentary Korean appetisers. The appetisers changes everyday, so we usually have different combinations each time we dine here. Best of all, the appetisers are refillable and super delicious...


This is my favourite. Dduck Pok Ki ($15). That's the Korean hot & spicy rice cake. The sauce is super delicious.


Meat lovers will love this. This is Korean BBQ, Doi Ji Mok-Sal ($22.00). We had the marinated pork shoulder and it was delicious. You can choose to have it cook at your table or by the chefs in the kitchen. Comes with side condiments of lettuces, garlic and sauce on the side. They also have other choices such as beef and chicken too.


Jab Chae ($16.00)
Korean glass noodle stir fried with vegetable. Strong taste of black pepper sauce.


I forgotten the name of this dish. I only remember that the name sounds like the Japanese dish 'Oden', and it is indeed similar to the Japanese Oden. It is a clear soup dish with fish cakes on skewers. Try if you don't take spicy dishes.

Service is good and can be better. We were there early that day and it was not busy, thus, service was attentive. During busy hours, it may be difficult to get attention, especially if you are seating in the partition areas.

There are 2 outlets in Singapore.

Eat And Drink: Christmas with Starbucks & Final Giveaway for 2015

Have you tried the Christmas beverages from Starbucks?  美味しいです。。(Delicious in Japanese) This year Starbucks return with 3 returning favorites and a new creation, in both hot latte and frappuccino options. Latte Version Photo credits: Starbucks Singapore New Creation:  Christmas Panettone Latte Returning Favorite:  Peppermint Mocha Latte (Recommended) Gingerbread Latte Toffee Nut Latte Frappuccino Version Photo Credits: Starbucks Singapore New Creation:  Christmas Panettone  Returning Favorite:  Peppermint Mocha (Recommended) Gingerbread Toffee Nut  I've tried all the hot & cold flavors and I preferred the usual Peppermint Mocha in both hot & cold options.

I think the dried fruits sprinkle doesn't do justice to the drink too.  Another item that I highly recommend is the Chocolate ...

It's been a long time since Mr Wonderful and I have a date. Glad to spend some private time together for dinner without Baby Joy! It was a surprise dinner date (3 weeks ago) as he just SMS me the venue 5 minutes before I off work.  When I reach the restaurant, there was a big crowd outside, waiting for tables. Mr Wonderful got 2 seats at the Sushi Counter which is our favorite whenever we dine at a  Japanese Restaurant.   There's a welcome drink for everybody. Never got to know what drink is that as the servers are always busy. We had a hard time trying to get their attention as everyone is attending to tables. There were a lot of table services such as tossing salad and cooking Sukiyaki by the table side.   My welcome drink   Quite nice, a little minty. The chilli padi looks scary, but you don't taste that at all... Wagyu Toro Sushi $7.90 I am not a fan of raw beef, so I've got nothing much to saw about this. But the beef literally 'melts' in my mouth, so make ...
