POCHA! Korean Street Food Dining (JEM)

I recently had one of the best corndog at River Hongbao 2023 and it kickstarted an insatiable craving for Korean street food. I know just the place - POCHA! Korean Street Food Dining opened not long ago in JEM.

POCHA! Korean Street Dining - Restaurant Front

POCHA! Korean Street Food Dining takes inspiration from pojangmacha, colorful Korean street stalls that come to life when night falls.

POCHA! Korean Street Dining - Menu

The menu features the various snacks you can find at these pojangmacha.

Decor

The fairy lights across the ceiling does remind me of Korean street stalls. The life-size paintings on the walls makes me feel as if I am really seating in a pochangmacha.

The Food

POCHA! Korean Street Dining - Chunky Tteok

Tteobokki [S$10.90] is too common, I decided to skip that and go for Chunky Tteok [S$18.90].  The mozzarella cheese on top gives the tteobokki a nice cheesy flavor. The fried chicken pieces makes this dish even more substantial.

POCHA! Korean Street Dining - Eomuk

I have a thing for Eomuk (Korean fish cakes) [S$8.90] which was why I made a special trip to the now-closed Samjin Amook. There’s something weirdly addictive about the Korean flat fishcake on skewers.

POCHA! Korean Street Dining - Corndog

Since corndog inspired me to visit this restaurant, I have to get the Corndog [S$6.90]. The mozzarella cheese inside is delightfully gooey while the outside is crispy. Drizzled with ketchup and mayonnaise, it doesn’t get much better than this.

POCHA! Korean Street Dining - Kimchi Mandu

Kimchi Mandu [S$6.90] is another popular snack at Korean roadside stalls. They are like the Chinese dumplings but packed with kimchi and pork filling and fried till crispy.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
