‘The Connoisseur Concerto’ aka. ‘TCC’, (www.theconnoisseurconcerto.com) was one of the best, well priced cafe franchises in Singapore in which we quickly became regular customers of during our stay there!

Strangely one of the best streaks I’ve ever had! I’ve always been skeptical about ordering steak anywhere else in the world because let’s face it, besides America, Australia has one of the best produce of beef in the world. And so many times have I eaten at a restaurant that can never distinguish serving a medium rare cooked steak from a medium - so I take my hat off to the chef who served one hell of a mean steak at KT’s Grill! ‘KT’s Grill’ was a real inconspicuous gem of a restaurant which almost blended too well into the surrounding faux facade. In my opinion the head chef should really consider opening outside of Universal Studios hehe. Delish!
When you’re having too much fun, it’s quite easy to forget to eat something. As the adrenaline was all pumped out of our system when it gradually grew darker that day, it was only then that we realised we needed to opt for the quickest solution and have dinner within Universal Studios at ‘KT’s Grill’ for our convenience. What initially drew us to the restaurant was the New York-esque furnishings, its linen and napkins seem more set up for finer dining than we were expecting, and the friendly waiters were all so very well groomed, fitting the theme perfectly.

I’ll be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever really enjoyed Yum Cha anywhere across Asia as I do here in Australia. While in Singapore we were recommended to visit ‘Yum Cha’ (www.yumcha.com.sg) located in Chinatown. Food was far better than what I’ve had before while traveling in Hong Kong, and the dynamics of restaurant itself reminded me a lot of my favourite Yum Cha in Melbourne named ‘Shark Fin Inn’ (www.sharkfin.com.au). However no surprises service was as crap as ever - slow and extremely non-attentive! But I guess you can’t go to Singapore without having Yum Cha at least once right?
Next morning after an unexpected night that turned much more out of control than we had anticipated, we were all hankering for some classic greasy ‘Yum Cha’ to get rid of that hangover pronto before spending the day at ‘Universal Studios’. When arriving in Singapore’s ’Chinatown’ district that morning, reality really hit us that we were in another country for the nostalgic remnants we were surrounded by. Although I didn’t feel that obvious sense of culture shock while in Singapore as I would feel when visiting other Asian countries, possibly because Singapore is already so modern, independently westernised for so long already, and on so many levels felt so similar to Sydney. However, I felt that when you do find yourself in certain areas in Singapore, its melting pot of mainly Chinese, Indian, British, and Malay cultures do really shine through. Exactly what it felt like when we arrived in Chinatown in search for good ol’ Yum Cha.

Quick, easy and deliciously cheap… the best grub to have before a night of drinking!
