Joanne Peh and Zoe Tay

What they ate: Seafood spread

Yummy factor: Both Joanne and Ah Jie were guests at Prada’s event last week, and they were treated to a sumptuous seafood spread comprising lobsters, crabs, king prawns and more inside the boutique. Look at how happy the crustacean fans were!

Elvin Ng and Romeo Tan

What they ate: Surprise birthday cake

Yummy factor: Happy birthday, Romeo! BFF Elvin Ng surprised him with a giant 3kg blackforest cake whilst “filming”, and Romeo was definitely shocked to see Elvin walking towards him with a confection that big. Awww.

Fann Wong

What she ate: Burgers and wings

Yummy factor: If there’s one thing that will make Fann smile, it’s a generous food delivery comprising several bags of juicy burgers and platters of fried wings with a variety of dipping sauces.

Ben Yeo

What he ate: Biryani

Yummy factor: Ben's in Dubai for a holiday with his family, and the biryani rice he's having sure looks yummy. We'd scoop more of it onto our plate if we were him and balance it off with some refreshing salad on the side!

Vernon A and Baby G

​​​​​​​What they ate: Crocodile penis soup

Yummy factor: Yup, you heard us right -- they ate the entire reproductive organ of a crocodile in all its glory. Germaine Tan aka Baby G didn’t seem to like it much, but Vernon thinks otherwise ("it's chewy"). Well.. It’s said to boost a man’s virility, so can we assume another baby will be on the way, Vernon?

Jeanette Aw

What she ate: Drool-worthy Japanese fare

Yummy factor: Jeanette, who is still in the Land of the Rising Sun, took a much-needed breather from production work and enjoyed not one but two sumptuous seafood dinners in the past couple of days - think fresh sashimi, crispy tempura, a whole grilled fish and more.

Jade Seah, Jamie Yeo, Jaime Teo and Michelle Chia

What they ate: Breakfast at P.S. Cafe

Yummy factor: The four leggy beauties met up for breakfast, and much to Jade’s chagrin, the cafe didn’t offer non-breakfast items till noon. PSA: if you ever ask Jade out, know that the noodle lover doesn’t care much for brunch fare. But if you ask us, Jaime’s eggs benedict and Michelle’s big breakfast looke delish.

Fiona Xie

What she ate: Lobster pasta

Yummy factor: We aren’t usually sold so quickly, but this angel hair pasta served with a whole lobster Fiona had is a different story altogether. Sign us up. Anytime.

Quan Yifong

What she ate: Banh mi

Yummy factor: Since everyone around her has been praising her for her weight loss, Yifong is taking it a little easier with her diet -- it’s authentic banh mi err day in Ho Chin Minh, Vietnam! Yup, even when Star Awards is just around the corner. Oh c’mon, you know how difficult it is to resist a fresh, crisp baguette sandwich?

Rui En and Felicia Chin

What they ate: Sweets

Yummy factor: Thanks to fellow cast member Lin Ruping, both Ruien and Felicia got to enjoy their current favourite sweet -- the refreshing Himalayan Salt Extra Cool. Spot Ruien holding up her packet!

Ya Hui and Bryan Wong

What they ate: Props

Yummy factor: Well, sort of, but at least it was real food. Bryan couldn’t help but munch on a French fry whilst on set, and Ya Hui just had to capture the moment!

Qi Yuwu

What he ate: Prawn noodles  

Yummy factor: With temperatures dropping in Beijing, there’s nothing that would please Yuwu more than to tuck into a generous serving of piping hot noodles with his family. Having said that, giant prawns are a bonus.

Ian Fang

What he ate: Steamboat

Yummy factor: Sometimes the simplest of ingredients make the best meal, and it appears to be so for Ian’s -- think fresh shabu shabu, mushrooms, tau kwa and more in a boiling and flavourful broth.

Pornsak

What he ate: Kawaii Japanese snacks and butter beer

Yummy factor: Pornsak is definitely making sure he’s eating his fill of Japan’s best offerings. We wonder if the turkey leg he had went well with the butter beer at Universal Studios Japan? Plus, how cute is that kitty-shaped bun?

Yasminne Cheng and Sophie Gollifer

What she ate: Krispy Kreme donuts

Yummy factor: Krispy Kreme, anyone? It looks like Yasminne is into classic flavours -- after all, she's holding an entire box of original glazed donuts!

Joel Choo and Chen Yixi

What they ate: Conveyor belt sushi

Yummy factor: Yixi and Joel decided to hit the sushi conveyor belt after they were done lifting iron, because it’s important to consume the right calories after one’s workout for them gains, right?

Class 95 crew

What they ate: Chilli crab Kit Kat

Yummy factor: Keen on taking a break with Kit Kat in flavours like Singapore chilli crab, salted egg yolk and chendol? Justin gave his nod of approval for the Chendol, by the way.

Chua Enlai

What he ate: Crab-based xiao long bao and pastry

Yummy factor: Enlai may be one of the most ang moh pai artistes we know, but he certainly loves his Chinese food. He had crab-based xiao long bao and pastries in Shanghai, China, and boy did the dumplings look juicy. And aren’t those crab-shaped pastries adorable?

Denise Camillia Tan

What she ate: Salad bowl

Yummy factor: Although Denise only managed to have a late lunch, we love the colours in her nutritious-looking salad -- we bet they lifted her spirits!

Yvonne Lim

What she ate: Salted egg snacks

Yummy factor: Yvonne got her hands on salted egg potato chips and crunchy rolls from Irvin’s, and we're pretty surprised she managed to take a selfie with them -- we'd have gobbled it all up!

Aden Chen

What he ate: Chocolate mushrooms

Yummy factor: Kate Pang and Andie Chen's little one decorated his own giant chocolate mushroom with chocolate eggs, jelly beans, and gummy bears in the spirit of Easter-- well done, Aden! Plus, we love how he can't wait to dig into his colourful art piece.
