Đợt này đi Singapore tụi mình không khám phá nhiều quán Michelin, chủ yếu ăn thức ăn đường phố, nhưng có nhà hàng này nổi tiếng về ẩm thực Tứ Xuyên, nên tụi mình muốn thử qua.
Bếp trưởng của nhà hàng là Chen Kentaro, nghe vừa Nhật vừa Hoa ha. Sau khi tìm hiểu thì tụi mình mới biết ông của Kentaro tên là Chen Kenmin vốn sinh ra ở Tứ Xuyên, sau định cư và lấy vợ Nhật, phát triển ẩm thực Tứ Xuyên ở Nhật, ông được xem là cha đẻ ẩm thực Tứ Xuyên của Nhật.
Đến đời Chen Kentaro thì họ đã ở hẳn bên Nhật lâu lắm rồi, Kentaro kế thừa và phát triển sự nghiệp của ông cha. Nhà hàng này có chuỗi gồm 14 nhà hàng ở các thành phố của Nhật, khá nổi tiếng. Đây là nhà hàng đầu tiên của chuỗi ở nước ngoài, và đạt 2 sao Michelin tại Singapore, quá vinh dự.
Địa chỉ:
Level 35, Orchard Wing, Mandarin Orchard Singapore, 333 Orchard Road, Singapore 238867
Website: http://www.shisenhanten.com.sg/
Sau khi đi vào tòa nhà Mandarin Orchard, các bạn lên lầu 5 (lobby), bên hông sẽ có bảng hướng dẫn đến khu thang máy khác để lên tầng 35 của nhà hàng. Thang máy này không chung thang máy với khu khách sạn.
Không gian:
Lúc đi vào thì không nghĩ sang tới vậy, vì nhà hàng này không yêu cầu đặt trước, cũng chẳng có dress code nên tụi mình mặc đồ rất là bình thường. Không gian sang trọng, trang trí đẹp, bên ngoài có để giờ mở cửa, bảng sao Michelin.
Đây là không gian bên trong, sàn trải thảm, không quá nhiều bàn, sang trọng ấm cúng, đèn chùm quá trời làm mình cứ có cảm giác không khí là quán Hoa mà lại ở châu Âu xưa :D.
Toilet ở bên ngoài nhà hàng, vì nhìn quá sang, hiện đại và quá đẹp, không cầm lòng được nên mình đã chụp hình lại. Toilet tự động, có nguyên dãy nút bấm bên tay phải, nắp tự sưởi ấm, thùng rác cũng là loại cảm ứng, đưa tay là nắp mở ra.
Phục vụ:
Ngoại trừ đầu bếp thì các nhân viên phục vụ, lễ tân đa số đều là người lớn tuổi. Mấy cô phục vụ tuy lớn tuổi nhưng nhanh nhẹn, rất là dễ thương, nhiệt tình, từ tốn, để ý khách khiến mình thấy bầu không khí có vẻ ấm áp.
Món ăn:
Tụi mình có ăn thử Dimsum, chọn trà Phổ Nhĩ để uống mau tiêu, giải ngán. Bình trà khá là nhiều, đặt trên bếp lửa cồn để giữ ấm. Phục vụ luôn để ý ly mình còn trà không để châm thêm.
Trà Phổ Nhĩ – S$12 
Dimsum tụi mình gọi 2 món à: 1 há cảo tôm và 1 xíu mại, để xem thử dimsum ở nhà hàng 2 sao Michelin thực sự khác biệt đến cỡ nào. Lúc dọn món dimsum ra nhà hàng không dọn thêm nước tương, nước chấm gì hết, mình cũng hơi thắc mắc, đến khi ăn thì mới hiểu, tất cả nhân được ướp vừa miệng rồi, không cần phải chấm thêm gì nữa. Phần vỏ há cảo mỏng, nhìn thấy nhân bên trong nhưng dẻo, dai, gắp lên không bị bể. Vỏ của xíu mại dày hơn chút nhưng mỏng hơn vỏ hoành thánh hay sủi cảo (theo mình tìm hiểu). Ở đây phần vỏ làm chuẩn.
Crystal Prawn Dumpling – S$7.5 
Siew Mai Tobiko – S$7.5
Tụi mình gọi nửa con vịt quay Bắc Kinh. Phục vụ có hỏi tụi mình muốn tự cuốn hay cuốn dùm thì tụi mình nhờ cuốn dùm luôn cho khỏe. Một cuốn gồm có miếng thịt + da (đã chấm điềm miến tương: làm bằng bột mì và bã đậu nành) + dưa leo + hành tây.
Phần da giòn, béo, thịt vịt mềm ẩm, đã chấm sẵn tương nên không cần chấm thêm, mà thực ra nhà hàng cũng không dọn thêm điềm miến tương, bạn nào ăn mặn có thể gọi thêm. Phần da + thịt vịt cuốn bánh tráng ở đây ăn không hề ngán luôn.
Món vịt thứ 2 tụi mình chọn đem sốt với tiêu đen. Món này cực kỳ đậm đà, sốt ngon, thơm, thịt vịt được làm vừa, mềm. Trong những lần ăn vịt quay Bắc Kinh, mình thấy lựa chọn món vịt sốt tiêu đen lần này là sáng suốt nhất của tụi mình.
Peking Duck (Half) – S$40 
Sauteed in Black Pepper (Half) – S$14
Một trong những món nổi tiếng ở đây là Mapo Tofu nên tụi mình cũng gọi thử xem sao. Tụi mình kêu thêm mì Dan Dan (mì sốt ớt Tứ Xuyên) để ăn cho no.
- Mapo Tofu: nói thực đây là món mình chờ đợi nhất, và cũng là món mình thường kêu khi đến các nhà hàng món Tứ Xuyên. Mapo Tofu ở đây có 2 loại: truyền thống và loại thêm shirako (tên gọi chung để chỉ món ăn được chế biến từ nguyên liệu chính là tinh hoàn cá tuyết). Sợi loại kia khó ăn nên tụi mình chọn loại truyền thống thôi. Ở đây làm món này mùi rất đậm đà, mùi xuyên tiêu, ớt ăn cảm giác ấm, nóng dai, vị mặn mặn đậm đà, không có vị hơi ngọt ngọt như kiểu ăn trong nước hay 1 số chỗ khác, đậu hũ non mềm, hơi béo ngậy 1 chút làm mình cảm giác ngán và có vẻ không hợp khẩu vị với mình.
- Mì Dan Dan: mình chưa được ăn món này ở nhiều quán, món này ở đây không giống bất kỳ quán nào mình từng ăn. Không quá cay, mùi khá đậm, vị hơi mặn (với mình). Mình nghĩ là vị món này ảnh hưởng Nhật nhiều hơn, sốt đậu phộng nhiều nên cảm nhận bùi và hơi béo, dễ ngán.
Mapo Tofu – S$26 
Ori Spicy Dry Noodles – S$14
Giá cả:
Với không gian, vị trí và chất lượng như vậy thì mình nghĩ là giá trên là hợp lý và đáng tiền. Giá nó tất nhiên sẽ cao hơn mấy quán như Tim Ho Wan, Din Tai Fung nhiều ha. Thiệt hại: S$142.40/ 2 người. Giá trên menu/ hình là giá chưa bao gồm 7% GST và 10% phí phục vụ.
Cảm ơn mọi người đã đọc bài viết. Hẹn gặp các bạn ở bài review sau.

‘White Lotus’ villain Jon Gries reveals the true crimes that inspired his twisty take on Greg/Gary
fixedfloat exchange
When Season 3 of “The White Lotus” premiered last month, the shock was palpable when returning character Belinda recognized a familiar face at the resort in Thailand: Greg Hunt, the wily suitor of the late Tanya McQuoid.
As the season has unfolded, Greg (played by Jon Gries) has emerged as an antagonist, particularly after Belinda dove into the investigation surrounding Tanya’s death and learned that Greg, who now goes by Gary, evaded questioning by authorities.
On a show famous for reinventing itself, the same has been asked of the actor, who says that playing the ever-shifting character has been a welcome challenge and, like “White Lotus” itself, full of twists.
“In the beginning, I totally played him for a guy who was, you know, on his last legs,” Gries said in a recent interview with CNN, referencing Greg’s very apparent ill health in the first season of “White Lotus,” which premiered to rave reviews in summer 2021. He added: “When you play a character, you want to find his empathetic side, and you want to understand where they came from, and what got them to where they are.”
But when he was contacted by creator Mike White about appearing in Season 2, Gries realized he would have to adjust his framing of Greg, despite having previously imagined a “comprehensive history” for him on his own.
“(White) said, ‘I’m writing it right now, and I’m writing you, and I just need to know here and now: If you’re in, I’ll continue writing. If not, I’ll stop,’” Gries recalled.

‘For the public to enjoy’
keplr wallet
The museum’s history starts in 1998, when Sheikh Faisal Bin Qassim Al Thani opened a building to the public on his farm some 20 kilometers (12 miles) north of Qatari capital Doha.
A distant relative of Qatar’s ruling family, founder and chairman of Al Faisal Holdings (one of Qatar’s biggest conglomerates), and a billionaire whose business acumen had him recognized as one of the most influential Arab businessmen in the world, Sheikh Faisal had already amassed a substantial private collection of historically important regional artifacts, plus a few quirky pieces of interest, allowing visitors an intimate look into Qatari life and history.
In an interview with Qatari channel Alrayyan TV in 2018, Sheikh Faisal said that the museum started as a hobby.
“I used to collect items whenever I got the chance,” he said. “As my business grew, so did my collections, and soon I was able to collect more and more items until I decided to put them in the museum for the public to enjoy.”
His private cabinet of curiosities has since evolved into a 130-acre complex. Through the fort-like entrance gate lies an oryx reserve, an impressive riding school and stables, a duck pond and a mosque built with a quirky leaning minaret. There’s now even a five-star Marriott hotel, two cafes and the Zoufa restaurant serving modern Lebanese cuisine.
Of course, there’s also the super-sized museum, with a recently-opened car collection housing everything from vintage Rolls-Royces to wartime Jeeps and colorful Buicks. Outside you’ll find peacocks roaming the grounds, and signs warning drivers to be aware of horses and ostriches.
Visitors to the FBQ museum are free to explore the grounds and can even enter the stables to pat the horses.
Why there’s a huge collection of vintage cars stored in the middle of the desert

Back at the turn of the 21st century, Qatar was a country with few cultural attractions to keep visitors and residents entertained. Yet the Sheikh Faisal Bin Qassim Al Thani Museum — known as the FBQ Museum — was a place that most people visited as an alternative to the then-still rather ramshackle National Museum of Qatar.
You had to make an appointment, and drive out into the desert, getting lost a few times along the way, but then you were welcomed to the lush Al Samriya Farm with a cup of tea and some cake. The highlight was being allowed into a space crammed full with shelves and vitrines holding all sorts of eclectic artifacts from swords to coins — with the odd car and carriage standing in the grounds.
It wasn’t necessarily the kind of museum you’d find elsewhere in the world, but it was definitely a sight that needed seeing.
Today, it has grown and now claims to be one of the world’s largest private museums. It holds over 30,000 items, including a fleet of traditional dhow sailboats, and countless carpets. There’s also an entire house that once stood in Damascus, Syria.
There are archaeological finds dating to the Jurassic age, ancient copies of the Quran, a section that details the importance of pearling within Qatar’s history, and jewelry dating to the 17th century.
There are also items from 2022’s FIFA World Cup in Qatar including replica trophies, balls used in the games, entry passes, football jerseys and even shelves full of slightly creepy dolls and children’s plush animals.
Some of the more disturbing exhibits include various items of Third Reich paraphernalia in the wartime room, and, strangely enough, several showcases of birds’ legs with marking rings on them. Basically, whatever you can think of, you have a very good chance of finding it here.
Rumor even has it that behind a locked door is a room filled with the late Princess Diana’s dresses and other memorabilia, accessible only to a select few visitors. Another door hides a room, no longer open to the public, filled with collectibles of the late Saddam Hussein.

Curiosity rover makes ‘arguably the most exciting organic detection to date on Mars’
bungee exchange
The NASA Curiosity rover has detected the largest organic molecules found to date on Mars, opening a window into the red planet’s past. The newly detected compounds suggest complex organic chemistry may have occurred in the planet’s past — the kind necessary for the origin of life, according to new research.
The organic compounds, which include decane, undecane and dodecane, came to light after the rover analyzed a pulverized 3.7 billion-year-old rock sample using its onboard mini lab called SAM, short for Sample Analysis at Mars.
Scientists believe the long chains of molecules could be fragments of fatty acids, which are organic molecules that are chemical building blocks of life on Earth and help form cell membranes. But such compounds can also be formed without the presence of life, created when water interacts with minerals in hydrothermal vents.
The molecules cannot currently be confirmed as evidence of past life on the red planet, but they add to the growing list of compounds that robotic explorers have discovered on Mars in recent years. A study detailing the findings was published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The detection of the fragile molecules also encourages astrobiologists that if any biosignatures, or past signs of life, ever existed on Mars, they are likely still detectable despite the harsh solar radiation that has bombarded the planet for tens of millions of years.
“Ancient life, if it happened on Mars, it would have released some complex and fragile molecules,” said lead study author Dr. Caroline Freissinet, research scientist at the French National Centre for Scientific Research in the Laboratory for Atmospheres, Observations, and Space in Guyancourt, France. “And because now we know that Mars can preserve these complex and fragile molecules, it means that we could detect ancient life on Mars.”

Remote and rugged
eigenlayer
A more organic way to see this coast is by the multi-day coastal ferry, the long-running Sarfaq Ittuk, of the Arctic Umiaq Line. It’s less corporate than the modern cruise ships and travelers get to meet Inuit commuters. Greenland is pricey. Lettuce in a local community store might cost $10, but this coastal voyage won’t break the bank.
The hot ticket currently for exploring Greenland’s wilder side is to head to the east coast facing Europe. It’s raw and sees far fewer tourists, with a harshly dramatic coastline of fjords where icebergs drift south. There are no roads and the scattered population of just over 3,500 people inhabit a coastline roughly the distance from New York to Denver.
A growing number of small expedition vessels probe this remote coast for its frosted scenery and wildlife. Increasingly popular is the world’s largest fjord system of Scoresby Sound with its sharp-fanged mountains and hanging valleys choked by glaciers. Sailing north is the prosaically named North East Greenland National Park, fabulous for spotting wildlife on the tundra.
Travelers come to see polar bears which, during the northern hemisphere’s summer, move closer to land as the sea-ice melts. There are also musk oxen, great flocks of migrating geese, Arctic foxes and walrus.
Some of these animals are fair game for the local communities. Perhaps Greenland’s most interesting cultural visit is to a village that will take longer to learn how to pronounce than actually walk around — Ittoqqortoormiit. Five hundred miles north of its neighboring settlement, the 345 locals are frozen in for nine months of the year. Ships sail in to meet them during the brief summer melt between June and August.
Locked in by ice, they’ve retained traditional habits.
“My parents hunt nearly all their food,” said Mette Barselajsen, who owns Ittoqqortoormiit’s only guesthouse. “They prefer the old ways, burying it in the ground to ferment and preserve it. Just one muskox can bring 440 pounds of meat.”
Siham Haleem, a private tour guide for 15 years, says that Doha now has many world-class, modern museums — the National Museum of Qatar being a firm personal favorite. And yet he says that visiting Sheikh Faisal’s museum should still be on everybody’s to-do list.

“For those eager to learn about Qatar’s — and the region’s — heritage and beyond, the museum is an ideal destination,” he says. “Personally, I’m captivated by the car collection, the fossils, and especially the Syrian house, painstakingly transported and reassembled piece by piece.”
Stephanie Y. Martinez, a Mexican-American student mobility manager at Texas A&M University in Qatar likes the museum so much she includes it on all of her itineraries for students visiting from the main campus in Texas.
“The guided tours are very detailed, and the collections found at the museum have great variety and so many stories to unfold,” she says. “Truly, the museum has something to pique everyone’s interest. My favorites are the cars and the furniture exhibits showcasing wood and mother-of-pearl details. Definitely one of my favorite museums in Qatar, every time I visit I learn something new.”
Raynor Abreu, from India, also had praise for the unusual and immense collection.
“Each item has its own story, making the visit even more interesting,” he says. “It’s also impressive to know that Sheikh Faisal started collecting these unique pieces when he was very young. Knowing this makes the museum even more special, as it reflects his lifelong passion for history and culture.”
It takes time and dedication to truly examine the many collections within the museum — especially since most of them are simply on display without explanation.
Eclectic it may be, but it’s hard to fault the determination of Sheikh Faisal, who has brought together items that tell the story of Qatar and the Middle East.
Sarah Bayley, from the UK, says she visited the museum recently with her family, including 16 and 19-year-old teenagers, and was won over by its sheer eccentricity.
“Amazing. Loved it. It is a crazy place.”

A long time in the making
Curiosity landed in Gale Crater on August 6, 2012. More than 12 years later, the rover has driven over 21 miles (34 kilometers) to ascend Mount Sharp, which is within the crater. The feature’s many layers preserve millions of years of geological history on Mars, showing how it shifted from a wet to a dry environment.
celer network
Perhaps one of the most valuable samples Curiosity has gathered on its mission to understand whether Mars was ever habitable was collected in May 2013.
The rover drilled the Cumberland sample from an area within a crater called Yellowknife Bay, which resembled an ancient lake bed. The rocks from Yellowknife Bay so intrigued Curiosity’s science team that it had the rover drive in the opposite direction to collect samples from the area before heading to Mount Sharp.
Since collecting the Cumberland sample, Curiosity has used SAM to study it in a variety of ways, revealing that Yellowknife Bay was once the site of an ancient lake where clay minerals formed in water. The mudstone created an environment that could concentrate and preserve organic molecules and trapped them inside the fine grains of the sedimentary rock.
Freissinet helped lead a research team in 2015 that was able to identify organic molecules within the Cumberland sample.
The instrument detected an abundance of sulfur, which can be used to preserve organic molecules; nitrates, which are essential for plant and animal health on Earth; and methane composed of a type of carbon associated with biological processes on Earth.
“There is evidence that liquid water existed in Gale Crater for millions of years and probably much longer, which means there was enough time for life-forming chemistry to happen in these crater-lake environments on Mars,” said study coauthor Daniel Glavin, senior scientist for sample return at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, in a statement.

Everyone is talking about Greenland. Here’s what it’s like to visit
cow swap
A few months ago, Greenland was quietly getting on with winter, as the territory slid deeper into the darkness that envelops the world’s northerly reaches at this time of year.
But President Donald Trump’s musings about America taking over this island of 56,000 largely Inuit people, halfway between New York and Moscow, has seen Greenland shaken from its frozen Arctic anonymity.
Denmark, for whom Greenland is an autonomous crown dependency, has protested it’s not for sale. Officials in Greenland, meanwhile, have sought to assert the territory’s right to independence.
The conversation continues to intensify. A contentious March 28 visit to a US military installation by Usha Vance, the second lady, accompanied by her husband, Vice President JD Vance, was the latest in a series of events to focus attention on Trump’s ambitions for Greenland.
The visit was originally planned as a cultural exchange, but was shortened following complaints from Greenland Prime Minister Mute B. Egede.
Had the Vances prolonged their scheduled brief visit, they would’ve discovered a ruggedly pristine wildernesses steeped in rich Indigenous culture.
An inhospitable icecap several miles deep covers 80% of Greenland, forcing the Inuit to dwell along the shorelines in brightly painted communities. Here, they spend brutally cold winters hunting seals on ice under the northern lights in near perpetual darkness. Although these days, they can also rely on community stores.
The problem for travelers over the years has been getting to Greenland via time-consuming indirect flights. That’s changing. Late in 2024, the capital Nuuk opened a long-delayed international airport. From June 2025, United Airlines will be operating a twice-weekly direct service from Newark to Nuuk.
Two further international airports are due to open by 2026 — Qaqortoq in South Greenland and more significantly in Ilulissat, the island’s only real tourism hotspot.
