Reddo Sushi

This is NOT a sponsored post. If the marketing people @Reddo Sushi are willing to give me a discount I would literally jump over the moon though!

Honestly, the thought of creating a post just to promote and keep this amazing sushi place alive was the main reason why I even considered blogging. I got no pictures of the sushi or food because of the sheer number of times I came and ordered the same things (my phone would be full of pictures of the same amazing aburi sushi rolls) but will upload it the next time I patronize the place. Also, I do not have the exact name of the dish though I can describe it to the best of my abilities.

I saw that the Google reviews and hungry go where reviews of Reddo are appallingly low. I come here to eat as often as my meager wallet could afford and I can say that I have NEVER been disappointed. I have brought my skeptical friends and family to this place and they be like "Nice meh? I never heard before" but they too leave a happy, full person. How I found the place is honestly very accidental. I'm not a picky eater. BUT when I am paying, I can be very picky. Thus, I am not likely to walk into a random restaurant, especially if I never heard of it, it looks empty or I do not get any ambiance from looking at it. Reddo happened to be all that. 

Picture this, a hungry, grumpy girlfriend that was craving sushi in bugis. Yet, said girlfriend doesn't like Genki (sorry) and has a HUGE distaste for anything MOF related (sorry, not sorry). Le boyfriend bit a bullet and dragged me into this stall which I thought for the longest time: "how do they survive".

The service was commendable and the spread was relatively large. I was drawn to the salmon-crab-aburi-mentaiko sushi rolls thing they were selling, the aburi sushi platter and deciding to go big or go home, the ever so dubious soft shell chili crab pasta. The food took some time, but I appreciate that. At least I know they are not just tossing my food into the microwave. 

The wait was totally WORTH IT. The sushi came drizzled (except the aburi platter) in sauce that was not overwhelming and very delicious. If you have tried Koh grill & sushi bar's Shiok maki, you would know that it is nice. However, I would say I prefer Reddo's as the sauce was not as overwhelming and I could taste the smokiness from the aburi as well as the freshness of the sashimi fish that were generously laid over the sushi rice. The chili crab pasta was interesting as I the not-so-pasta-loving-person really enjoyed it but my pasta-loving boyfriend would rather order just sushi after the first time. 

The food can be pricey, but in Singapore, what good Japanese food isn't? In fact I would say Reddo is one of the most value-for-money places that I have ever eaten yet. I have never stopped thanking my boyfriend from forcing me to give the place a try. As much as I would love to keep this place a hidden gem and prevent it from developing those long snaking queues like Sushi Tei, I reasoned that I rather queue than have this place go down without people giving it a chance. 

Reddo Sushi is at Bugis Plus+, just behind Poulet and opposite the Korean food place. I believe that it is on level 4 (?) where most of the restaurants are. If you are up for trying a new sushi place, or just want to eat somewhere in the busy Bugis area without a queue (T.T) do give Reddo a chance. Order one of the sushi rolls, I hope you would enjoy the food as much as I did!

Linguistics and Multilingual Studies @ NTU + Module Review

If you plan to take the LMS major, be prepared to question things you never questioned before, study things you may not expect and if you aren't really into certain things but are forced to take in order to clear AUs, suffer a little. I'll not go into details regarding the core mods- if you are already in LMS, there is already no escape; if you need the major to get into certain jobs, you'll bite the bullet. However, if you are seriously deciding I'll share a little. Syntax or what we usually call grammar. Get ready to explain why "*I was here tomorrow" is wrong besides the fact that it defies common sense.  You do not escape from a bit of science. Learn about human anatomy to explain where and how sounds are produced, how ears receive sounds, which brain segments induce speech etc. MATH still haunts you. Kinda? There's this stat mod that I did not care much about for but trust me nothing is worse than A level H2 maths.  I was advised by a kind...

NTU Elective Review- Part 1 GER-PEs

Upon my arrival into NTU, I have relied on multiple Elective Review blogposts/articles to make informed decisions when selecting where to put my AUs. I have also relied on friends' recommendations and word-of-mouth on what is easier/more interesting to clear. Below will be the lists of electives that I have personally taken and my personal thoughts on them. GERPEs CS8100 Fundamentals of Communication Studies | LA | 3 AU | Grade obtained: B+ Consists of 1 Midterms 25%, 1 Finals 50%, Weekly online MCQ Quizzes 15% & attendance and participation 10%. The weekly quizzes are graded, but do not fret: you can keep retaking until the end of the week to obtain your 30/30. For attendance, it is signed- either beginning, middle or end of the class. It is never fixed to prevent people from skipping part of it. Participation equates to speaking in front of an audience of a few hundred students on stage for a couple of minutes (which I did not do). Honestly, this mod can be studie...

Blog's Purpose

The aim of this blog is simple, really, for me to post things that are of interest to me and to hopefully improve my writing skills. Another purpose I have is to share the good, the bad and the whatever that I've experienced as a consumer/customer/student.  Who am I?  I'm known as Tabby- a university student from NTU majoring in Linguistics and Multilingual Studies. Before you ask, NO, I do not speak 15 languages. I'm just your average Singaporean who's proficient in English and sadly not as formidable in Mandarin. Linguistics is the study of language- the phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics. It does not mean that we speak half a dozen languages (though I do believe some of my more linguistically talented peers can). I am also female if the name does not already imply.  My interests include eating, reading, gaming (on consoles only), guinea pigs, cats and many other boring minor things. Expect my blog to have random raves and complains of...
