Honest Reviews

I pay for all my food, am not sponsored and do not collect any fees for any of my posts. I'm just a hobbyist who loves to explore new taste concepts and food ideas, archive my experiences and make pretty photos.

Ruskology 101 - Original Butter Rusk and Hors d'oeuvre Rusk Sommelier by Gateau Festa Harada

I never heard of the term "rusk" until my parents chanced upon this long line outside the Osaka Gateau Festa Harada (GFH) store at Hanshin Umeda, and decided to buy their products back for us to try. You may have already read my post on leaf pies , which featured another product of GFH's. But their signature item is their rusk- bread that is toasted until it is completely crispy through and through, and I have two to share about today. First up is their classic rusk - butter sugar rusk, or Gouter de Roi as they call it. Each "individually-wrapped" packet comes with two pieces.

What is a dry beer or sake? Asahi Super Dry Beer vs non-dry beer, sake, and dry sake

I went for a S$6 beer tasting workshop that answered this question with side-by-side samples to compare. It was organised by Asahi Beer in July 2023 for the launch of their updated Superdry Beer taste. They not only let us try different types of beer, but also sake , because the concept of dry and not dry started from sake.

Roasted Barley Milk Tea with Japanese Mugicha from Saga - easy DIY recipe for home

Mugicha, or Japanese roasted barley tea, is normally served plain, usually without even sugar, warm or cold. But with all the bubble tea stores putting non-conventional teas on the menu, I decided to experiment making Milk Mugicha to see how it tasted... it ended being more like a mugicha latte. I used a popular mugicha brand called Sanei Kosan from Saga Prefecture, Japan.

Glutinous Green Milk Tea by Chagee, and a bonus Cocoa Oolong Milk Tea sample

I didn't recognise this "Glutinous Green Milk Tea" on Chagee's menu, so I ordered it to see what it was about, and was pleasantly surprised by the experience. First, what is glutinous green tea? It is apparently a normal green tea brewed with what Chagee calls a "plant native to Yunnan" in its in-app description (see image below). After further research, it seems that there are two separate plants used - one is the normal tea plant for the green tea, and the other is the Yunnan-native herb which goes by the name of Semnostachya menglaensis or nuo mi xiang (糯米香) in Chinese. Both the tea and the nuo mi xiang seem to be sourced from Yunnan. Besides green tea, nuo mi xiang is also often paired with puer tea. Besides its use to flavour foods such as tea, it is apparently also used in traditional Chinese medicines to aid digestion, detoxify and reduce internal "heat", but I don't know how validated by research it is. It literally means "glutin...

Hawthorn Soft Crisp by Bao's Pastry

Hawthorn is an unusual fruit that is not seen often in Singapore except for some niche traditional childhood sweets and snacks, so it was interesting to see it as a pastry filling at this trending bakery, Bao's Pastry. What's even more interesting is how they are sold in a big resealable bag, almost like you are supposed to binge on them. The first thing I noted is that the ingredients list was only available on their in-store price display (click to enlarge image below), and it wasn't printed on the packet itself. Also, it doesn't list all the ingredients, just some "core" ones, which are all probably the better ingredients from the full list. For example, expected ingredients such as sugar or salt aren't listed, so we don't really know if there were artificial additives. Nonetheless, I thought it was of decent quality for the price overall after the taste test. It was S$7.90 for 9 pieces.

Little Butter Latte vs Butter Americano by Luckin Coffee

The title of this latte had me curious so I had to try. Butter and coffee is a combination I tried as ice cream once, and wished there was more of. But the name of Little Butter Latte is apparently a branding collaboration between Luckin Coffee (瑞幸咖啡 ruì xìng kā fēi) and the Butterbear Cafe in Thailand which has as a mascot called Butterbear ( Nong Mee Noei in Thai). The mascot went viral sometime back in Thailand and the region, getting turned into Line stickers and so on. As you can see from the shop signboard, it's super cute. After that, they also released a Butter Americano, 1 year after the latte, which I also just tried. They also recently launched an apple version called Buddy Apple Butter Latte . (Scroll down for the updated section on the Americano version.)

Shinano Gold Apple from Aomori, Japan - my favourite apple variety

I have tried a few Japanese gourmet apple varieties, but decided to post about the Shinano Gold Apple from Aomori, as it is currently my favourite, and a very premium apple variety indeed. I understand that this is a cross of the Golden Delicious variety and another one called Senshu, which in turn is a cross of Fuji and Toko varieties. (Toko is in turn a derivative of Ourin or Ohrin variety, which is another Aomori apple I tried, but which I didn't like as much.) [Update: While this particular batch of apples were grown in Aomori, an anonymous commenter pointed out that the breed was first developed in Nagano Prefecture, and that "Shinano" is an old name for the Nagano area. And I later found that it was first bred in 1993 at the Nagano Fruit Tree Experiment Station. So thank you to the commenter for this. I suppose Aomori farms actively scout for new promising varieties to cultivate, and have since started cultivating this species taken from that Station. Besides that,...

Japanese Red Snow Crab Ice Cream by Tomoda Sailing

I saw this at JEM's Don Don Donki sometime back and HAD to try it. Japanese crab ice cream, with salt from Republic of Kiribati or Christmas Island... I have no idea why that is special though. It's by Tomoda Sailing, which specializes in crab and seafood, rather than ice cream or desserts. Plus check out the natural ingredients... Fresh cream and 紅ズワイ蟹 (beni-zuwaigani or red snow crab or Chionoecetes japonicus). I've never even eaten it as a savoury meal I think... To think that my first time trying it is as an ice cream! (Click the photo to enlarge.)

Jasmine Cloud Latte by Luckin Coffee

After a good experience with Luckin's Cloud Cold Brew , I was eager to try the new Jasmine Cloud Latte. I love cheese foam and milk teas, so I thought this would be a good idea. Note that this contains coffee, so it is a cheese foam yuan yang or "dirty" tea.. The cheese foam is the white layer on top, and the white layer below is the milk. However, it turned out to be a disappointment.

Mascarpone Latte by Luckin Coffee (both hot and iced versions reviewed), and a short comment on the Vanilla Soufflé Latte

Another eyebrow-raising flavour was launched by Luckin recently, as a collaboration with Tom & Jerry. It's called the Mascarpone Latte. I tried the iced version first, then updated on the hot version after, further below. (I also tried both the hot and iced Vanilla Soufflé Latte and wasn't impressed, so I have short comments right below.) Iced Mascarpone Latte My first impression is that it tasted nothing like mascarpone cheese. As you would know, probably from trying tiramisus, mascarpone cheese is rather unlike other cheeses in that it is closer to a cream, and it is sweet rather than salty.
