With its enticing French-Japanese fusion dishes, Miam Miam French Japanese Cafe Kitchen is a great dining spot at Bugis Junction. A dish such as the Creamy Miso Squid with Squid Ink Pasta ($27.90++) is a delicious example of the two culinary interests, with umami notes from miso merging well with the cream and al dente squid ink aglio olio. For desserts, we recommend the fluffy Berry Loving Fuwa Fuwa Pancake ($15.80++).
