Bro's Eats


Sometimes my brother sends me some photos of his meals. 


This one was not so recent - it was during the Chinese New Year week. It was a meal he had at Antipodean, The Atria.


These two photos prompted me to visit Antipodean.

My brother mentioned Antipodean to me a long time ago. But he told me the Big Breakfast was just OK although the coffee is good.

Well, I am glad I finally visited and now it is a regular place that I go to for lunch Fridays.


Recently my brother tried a restaurant right outside The Atria,  Gourmet Burger. His feedback was the Iberico Pork Belly is just OK only. So was the coffee.


The smash pork burger though, was nice. 


He was not positive about the BBQ Iberico Pork Ribs. Apparently it was flaky and dry. I have had such pork ribs before. But the fries were apparently very good. His conclusion is that Gourmet Burger is only good for the burgers.


After I shared a photo of Antipodean's burger, my brother gave it a try (it was nice he said).


This was his breakfast at an eatery near his office. 

I tried looking for Gourmet Burger but failed to locate it. So my brother gave me directions. Go to the exit at Mr Fish and then turn right he said.

So I walked to Mr Fish after lunch at Antipodean last Friday. On my way I spotted a new restaurant - Sour Little 7. What a quaint name.


I suspect it is something like Fish With You at The Starling. The theme color here is green while Fish With You is bright orange.


This is their mascot.

Then I saw this Memang Best Noodle House.


Little Penang Kafe.


Ipoh Ais Kopi Chek Hup.


Ah, Esquire Kitchen is here. I miss the old Esquire Kitchen, the one back in the 90's. They were at the The Atria (before the major renovation) and my partner and I used to dine there practically every weekend. Now we never go to Esquire Kitchen anymore.


Mr Fish. This is the point of reference given by my brother. Exit the mall, turn right and cross the road.


Found! Gourmet Burger is right below The Last Comic Shop. I shall visit (both) soon!


Going back into the mall, I saw that Spitalfield's is still around. My brother and I visited in 2017.


Then I made my way back to DU. As you can see, in spite of the zebra crossing, a traffic warden had to be placed there to stop the cars so that pedestrians can cross the road. Why? Because.

    1. Beautifully said, Lotus. In response to your question on my blog, I am divorced since 1998. I have lived alone since then and don't mind it at all. My ex husband is living in the U.S. now and is in his 3rd marriage.
