Lunch @ Bincho
The deal: At Bincho’s lunch service, you pick from roughly 10 set meals ($20-30), mostly donburi like oyako [chicken and egg] and negitoro [raw tuna] plus the occasional ramen. Predictable stuff, but solid and thoughtfully put-together (we loved the sea grapes in the neigtoro don). The accompanying sides are forgettable, with the notable exceptions of […]

Boomarang Bistro & Bar (Circular Rd)
The laidback Australian bar from Robertson Quay has a new outpost on Circular Road, which opened its doors just a few months back. A favorite with Aussie expats, the bar is also popular with sports nuts, thanks to its multiple flat-screen TVs. Tuck into the hearty steak sandwich ($25) or kangaroo burger (also $25), and […]
