Jamie's Italian Restaurant Singapore Vivocity outlet started by Jamie Oliver the famous British chef. Mrupupup tried out the seared tuna dish ($32) and Spaghetti Nero ($28) with mussels and black colour spaghetti noodles. The tuna was yummy and delicious, nicely done with nice avocado based sauce. The pasta was good with big prawns and mussels. One thing about Jamie's was the good and attentive service at the Vivocity outlet facing the Sentosa Island (address: 1 Harbourfront Walk #01-165 Vivocity mall). The not so good thing about Jamie's was the price of the dishes. Luckily, Mrupupup got use the Entertainer app to get one for one offer, so paid half price. Video

SET restaurant offers contemporary cuisine, and comes in set lunch and set dinner menu. Prices range from around $28.80++ for 5 course and $38.80++ for 6 course meal.

Mrupupup had Chef Starter (which change regularly) of foie gras with red wine (pretty good!), cold dish of smoked duck, tomato caprese, Huai San Carpaccio (a kind of Chinese Yam), Salmon Gravlax. SET created fusion of Chinese and Western style to come up with the interesting cold dishes. Mrupupup liked the all the cold dishes. For the side dish, Mrupupup had the King Oyster

Mrupupup went to Cornerstone Café for Brunch. The eating place is located at Bishan Park 2 (the one with the Macdonalds). The Cornerstone offers a large place for people to gather to have brunch. Brunch consisted of slices of roast beef, ham, squid, tuna in tiny cute cones, lobster pasta in a spoon and the wonderful desserts. Wow, the desserts were the nice part! Cornerstone had marsh mellow with sweet sauces, wonderful cakes, tiny cups with sweet things, cookies, many wonderdul things which Mrupupup had recorded on pictures. Yummys!!!!! Mrupupup loved to eat! If you have dogs, the Cornerstone is dog friendly, Mrupupup saw large dogs and small dogs and even a nice cat enjoying the sunny day! Very nice place for a weekend brunch! OK, attached below their burger and soups. Yummy!

Nine Thirty (former Loola's) by Awfully Chocolate at the Esplanade Mall (#02-14) has revamped to be a cool place to eat Western food and of course their hot chocolate. The new menu options looks good but a bit on the high side in terms of price. The service was good though! Mrupupup started with the mushroom soup which was delicious and creamy. Best part was to dip the toasted bread into the soup - nice. Next Mrupupup tried the bread type of food with an egg and baked ham pieces on top with sides like chips, olives and onions. Wow, really filling! Really an 'all day breakfast' type of food. The bread was toasted and such a huge piece!   Mrupupup also tried their fish and chips which was yummy but oily. Next item was their pancakes which looked like 'Macdonald's' pancakes. Pancake was fluffy soft and bit too sweet with the syrup. Mrupupup also had a bit of honey baked ham with a huge baked apple. Pretty well done and easy to eat. Pretty g
