[F.T] Siam Society Singapore

The closest we can get to Thailand is to indulge in Thai Food, so a new thai eatery - Siam Society has popped up along Jalan Riang, replacing the space that used to be Fat Cat. I am jealous of residents staying around Jalan Riang because they have so much delicious food there such as Wimbly Lu and Cajun King!

Thai Iced Tea & Lemongrass ($3.90 ea). I can never miss out these drinks whenever I visit a Thai restaurant, be it for Mookata or for Phad thai or for Tom Yum Soup, I will never fail to order them. Siam Society's Homemade Lemongrass is fragrant and not too sweet which is great for quenching our thirst or to sooth the spiciniess when we indulge in the yummy food.

Mango Salad ($9.90) - Spicy & Sour to kick start your palate in anticipation for the dishes coming on later.
Clear Seafood Tom Yum Soup (S - $10.90 / L - $16.90) Fresh seafood in the seemingly harmless clear soup that packs a punch on every sip, Shiok ah!

Siam Society has one of the best Green Curry Chicken ($12.90) I've had in Singapore so far! Creamy, Flavourful with tender pieces of chicken meat, I suspect it is chicken thigh meat lor. So good with rice!!
Salted Egg Cuttlefish($14.90) lacks the excitement that we normally have at Zi Char stalls where the cuttlefish is deep fried with a crispy batter before coating with salted egg sauce. Siam Society's version is clean and cuttlefish is fresh.

Thai Morning Glory ($8.90) - What a beautiful name for a simple dish of stir-fry veg. No fancy seasoning, just good stir fry veggies, dig in!

Yellow Curry Prawn ($17.90) - One of the dish at Siam Society that I would definitely recommend to everyone! Alongside with Weeping Tiger(Grilled Sirloin Beef) ($24.90), is among the few Signature dishes at Siam Society that everyone should try!! My table of ladies could not stop praising the Yellow Curry Prawns, and I must say the prawns are real fresh and the yellow curry is nothing near death spicy, so it's suitable for everyone, I believe even kids!

HIGHLIGHT OF THE DAY - Steamed Seabass ($31.90) - Fresh WHOLE Seabass in the spicy and sourish sauce which excites the palate like no other! even if we had a full tummy, we would do our very best to swallow this delicious seabass anytime because it's just too good!! Prawn Cake Balls ($11.90) are like addictive popcorn chicken but with prawn and a crispy batter together with a plum dip. A little on the salty side but It is addictive when dipped in the plum sauce! Yums!

The Classic Trio of Thai Dessert, Red Ruby ($4.90), Tapioca ($4.90) & Mango Sticky Rice ($7.90). Red Ruby is made of water chestnut and topped with shaved ice and jackfruit strips, pretty good version here at Siam Society. I recently fell in love with tapioca although my all time favourite has been Mango Sticky Rice. Hmmmmm.. Can I just have them all? :)

I truly enjoyed myself at Siam Society and the ambience there is great for a group of friends to chill out and just chit chat the night away, although it's a little inconvenient, but I would say it's definitely worth a visit!

Wimbly Lu Chocolate Cafe - Jalan Riang

Wimbly Lu, Many get excited when they hear this name and I used to be one of them, Used to.
I head over to Wimbly Lu one evening with some of my friends to check this place out and I and to find out just what is the hype around here.


We Started with the famous Root Beer Cake, I was really looking forward to this and I was a tad disappointed with it. I was expecting the root beer flavor to burst out in my mouth but I only tasted a tint of root beer flavor and a little bit of the gassy-ness of real root beer when I paired the cake with the vanilla ice cream. It was really unique though.
Root Beer Cake - $6+


Here's something I saw from The Chosen Glutton's Blogpost on Wimbly Lu that I think I should try, It's the Hazelnut Butterscotch Bar. The fragrant Caramel and Hazelnut pairing is heavenly and i dare say it's a MUST-TRY! 
Hazelnut Butterscotch Bar $4.50+

I love Tiramisu and It's almost a must order whenever I see it on the Menu, and it's no exception at Wimbly Lu. Their version lacks punch but it's enough to satisfy my craving.


Buttermilk Waffles and Lava Cake, these 2 are the most popular items in anyone's dessert list, even mine. I've heard quite a few raves about Wimbly Lu's Waffle and I had to try it for myself. It is light and airy and I love the fragrance of the batter and crispy outer layer, Mmmmm.

The Chocolate Lava Cake on the other hand, Warm and Moist, Oozing with chocolate lava beneath the crunchy top, It is a delight to devour it alone, advised not to be shared.



Molten Lava Cake - $6+

So Come On, Take a Trip down to Wimbly Lu to try out the many different chocolate creations available! :)
p.s: You can visit The Cajun King next door first before heading over to Wimbly Lu, But you can make a reservation 2 hours before your visit to Wimbly Lu to secure a seat. :)
