Yokato Yokabai font probablement les meilleurs ramens que j'ai goûté à Montréal depuis que j'en ai mangé au Japon. Attention de ne pas confondre ce resto avec leur autre restaurant, Ichigo Ichie, accessible à la même adresse. Ichigo Ichie est un Izakaya mais ils ne servent pas les ramens. Aussi, si vous souhaitez manger les ramens, vous ne pouvez pas réserver. C'est premier arrivé, premier servi. (Désolé, cette photo n'est pas la mienne; je n'ai pas l'habitude de photographier ce que je mange. Prise sur le site des Pages Jaunes.)

A bite of history. A bite of Muffuletta!

The best place for a glass of wine*. It's the perfect balance – not too formal, not too informal either. Food is consistently good. Lamb's Conduit Street is a little oasis in the midst of Bloomsbury. (*slightly overpriced)

In terms of materials and form, these galleries offer so much. On an abstract and typographic level, so useful. This is a section of an altar frieze, from the Eye Temple at Tell Brak (N.E. Syria), dated 3300–3000BC. The Egyptian rooms take the tourist weight; these spaces are much quieter and amenable time spent drawing and thinking.

A perfect place to hide from the traffic and the crowded streets of Saigon. Here you will get some peace and quiet to log on some wifi and start instagramming! That is something you actually have to do here. Because of the beautiful vintage interior, this café might be one of the most instagrammable coffee shops in town. Oh and the coffee is quite good too!

One of those rarely found shops that inspires one to craft and creativity. A huge selection of high quality papers to print and draw on, to cut, fold, glue or just wrap presents with.

The first museum in the United States dedicated exclusively to posters.

A new ramen joint with exceptional homemade broth and thin Hong-Kong style noodles and a small but exciting set of Japanese cocktails. Dessert is one of the main stars, made by former Big King pastry chef Millie, who specializes in eclectic ice cream flavors. Come during the day and you can sometimes buy a single scope from the front window!

There are plenty of food outlets and restaurants along East Coast Road but this one in particular is my favourite. An old-school eatery with absolutely no-frills, from the interior to the food they serve. They only sell Niang Tou Fu (primarily tofu and vegetables stuffed with ground meat mixture or fish paste) here which is only SGD 70 cents per piece and sour plum drink, both homemade I think. Would highly recommend the crispy deep fried beancurd and add the chilli paste if you like it spicy. Do not expect top-notch service here though, after all its no-frills.

Book Dealers is an institution in itself. If you're looking for second-hand almost new books, this is the place to go. 

Impervious to the slightest tourism, El Loquillo is perhaps the last bar where fishermen gather to 'split' the profits

Good place to go for a quick healthy lunch or dinner, you can choose from a variety of paleo, vegan and vegetarian dishes. They also have a great organic coffee too!
