Chicken Rice Smile Jul 17, 2013   (Related Review)

Categories : Coffeeshop | Chicken Rice

 
As this is near the place where I had to attend seminars, I went to eat again during lunch, as it is cheap and affordable, and I liked their fried pork chop. This time, I ordered the chicken rice, and added an additional $2 for pork chop, and it costs $5.50 in total. I would recommend this combination as you get to try both their chicken and pork chop. The chicken was tender, and the rice fragrant, although a little overcooked.

I was excited about this place when I realized they had all day breakfasts available! Nothing beats the idea of waking up at noon and heading down to clark quay for brunch! The place seemed empty on a weekday afternoon and did not meet our expectations. It did not look very appealing from the outside and seemed more towards being a bar then a cafe. There were seats outside as well as indoors but the outdoors seating was not very appropriate for a properly meal.

I decided to have sun dried tomatoes with mozzarella cheese sandwich, Pancakes with bananas and ice cream as well as orange juice.

Sundried Tomatoes with Mozerella Cheese Sandwhich
I was glad that this sandwhich did not contain a slice of cheese but mozerella was used which made the sandwhich stick together - Just the way I like it. The dish was served with masala fries; Very average for a cafe though. 5/10

Orange Juice
Seemed to be freshly squeezed but the glass way was too small! probably smaller then the size of a paper cup. 6/10

Pancakes with Bananas and Ice Cream
I really like the way the bananas were served, tasted like they were caramelized smile However, the pancakes were technically " 4 Mini pancakes" and did not look very appealing. The pancakes were totally out of proportion. It tasted pretty decent though. This dish was served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and chocolate syrup. Outlook wise, seemed to be very sloppy 6/10

Staff did not bother to serve us ice water or ask if we'd like to have another drink even when our glasses were clearly empty. Manager/Owner of the place appeared to be friendly and kept checking in on us to ask how the food was. The food was alright but I do believe they might get a wider crowd if they were more creative with the food and making it look more appealing. They should probably do something about the outdoor seating area aswell.The staff should also be more attentive to customers.

In terms of taste, I will rate this place as one of the worst restaurants as even a simple main course such as fish & chips doesn't taste good. The fries seem a bit overcooked (perhaps they were cooked a few times) and are not crispy. The so-called beer battered fish is also a disappointment.

Have also ordered the buffalo wings which aren't fresh and aren't well-marinated. In fact, the buffalo wings seem like left-overs from previous days. sad

The only dish which can be considered as decent is the spaghetti carbonara. Though it is very oily (not sure why so much oil is added to the sauce), it doesn't taste as bad as the fish & chips and buffalo wings.
