With new season comes new treats. We are digging deep into the change of seasonal menus. Not only are we catching the blooming of new restaurants, WOM is bringing you the latest of afternoon teas, from a perfume collaboration to a colorful French celebration....
Tasteful New Spring Dishes | 02.05.2013
As May arrives, weather is still a mess. While it's good news we were not promised of misty spring days where all are sticky and wet, we encounter the fluctuating weather of cool chilly days with sun in the morning and rainstorms in the afternoon. The temperature roller-coaster has affected the prod...
Spring with Ume | 25.04.2013
There is a change this year. Spring crept in and out of the city in such an unpredictable manner. The misty days were replaced by fluctuations of cool windy intervals and sunny, summery mornings. While the weather failed us, the produce calendar didn't. The market is now replaced with a spread of gr...
Scrumptious Egg White Dishes | 24.04.2013
Egg dishes have been the popular topic at Easter - where I can find a perfect onsen egg, a great French omelette, or egg salad sandwich. We never doubt the versatility of the egg, but sometimes we wonder, what about egg whites? And as part of this year's Easter celebration, we pay tribute to egg whi...
Return to Gourmet | 10.04.2013
After taking a sabbatical from dining out, returning to the dining scene has proven that the city’s dining options are just as wonderful as colours on a painter’s palette. We have not lost touch to the new restaurants that opened, we just have much to anticipate about when it comes to something. Thi...
Fishy Business by the Pool | 26.02.2013
Something fishy is going on with the notion of poolside dining. The trepidation of diners being seen eating by the pool with swimmers making splashes is enough of a turn-off even though we all love getting some sun dining al fresco. The newly refurbished Fish Bar at the JW Marriott is of no such wor...
In the (Christmas) Kitchen with Gregoire Michaud: Part 1 | 12.12.2012
With the festive holiday season just around the corner. The familiar melodies are jingling in our ears like the Christmas bells, and the sweet aroma of winter spices on Pannetone, Christmas Puddings and Cakes are igniting our appetite for something delightful and festive. WOM has the pleasure to ent...
Winter's Luxury | 20.11.2012
There is something about White Truffles, an intrigue that draws foodies back to examine fine dining options every year. The prized morsel is now at the peak of its season, as restaurants are featuring the best flavours to accentuate the delicate flavor of the white truffle. Here is a selection of wh...
Plate with Colours this Fall. | 06.11.2012
The seasons may not be respecting the calendar as much, as cooler weather has just arrived. With Christmas approaching we have yet to anticipate a chilly winter ahead, but what we can count on is the streak of colourful plates that greeted our palates the past week, here comes a showcase of these ne...
A Fruitful Week | 22.10.2012
The issue most of us take when it comes to eating, is that you get only a handful of good meals out of the many you try out. Even though it’s true that the more you eat the finer your scale it is going to become when it comes to know what is good and what isn’t. We at WOM are thankful of the past we...
Say It: Wholly Crab! | 10.10.2012
It’s that time of the year, people. The mooncakes are now replaced with the flooding of hairy crabs from China. Before you grab your utensils ready and your hands dirty, do look into the options of hairy crabs when dining out. Many restaurants are serving special dinner sets and deals for these priz...
Summer Dainties: New Dim Sum for the Season | 27.06.2012
The new season calls for light appetites and lighter meals to go with the appetite. Often times, we end up eating less per meal but more meals, nibbling our way throughout each day. Dim Sum is just about perfect – literally mean ‘little morsels’, dim sum can be regarded as one of the most complex fo...
A for Abalone and Art | 09.05.2012
Eating is an art. While it relies on acquired taste in the various forms of eating, including habits, priorities, preference to cuisines and many more. There is much complexity in the form of eating and it wouldn’t be fair to conclude that eating is only for the sake of survival. We often find pleas...
Bring On the White Spears | 02.05.2012
Following the seasonal produce calendar, white asparagus arrives in May, marking the beginning of the onslaught of summer produce. The ivory-colored vegetable, with its firm but slender stalks, is prized for its seasonality. Harvested and widely enjoyed in May, the biggest harvests come from France,...

Sweets and Chocolates are often in abundance at the Easter Table. This year, the Easter feast got more interesting, as an artful selection of chocolates and sweets capture the attention of many. Here are some of our favorites so far....
