Me and bf were looking for a dining place to dine at Ion Orchard for our late lunch. We heard so much from people's ravings on 4 Fingers' fried chicken and thus we decided to give it a try since the queue was shorter then expected. From the wide range of choices on the menu, we ordered the "Four Fingers Crispy Chicken in Soy Garlic Sauce". The food were served pretty fast and it came in a paper lunch box style. Much to our delight, the chicken, especially the skin, were flavourful due to the soy garlic sauce. It was well fried and the meat blended well with the sweet garlic sauce. The fries were slightly chunky and crispy and it wasn't too salty or soggy.

I had a short walk to Nonna Linna from Tanjong Pagar mrt. Friend recommended this place for her birthday dinner as it is just below her workplace. I ordered the veal dish that comes with mashed potato and olive oil. This dish was quite a huge portion and it came with some toasted bread. On the other hand, my friends ordered squid ink spaghetti, sea urchin pasta, risotto and crab meat spaghetti. We had a red wine (Chianti Classico) to pair with our food. It doesn't taste too dry and went well with my veal. For desserts, we had panna cotta and tiramisu. I would strongly recommend the panna cotta as it is almost the best of all that I've ever eaten. It had a super smooth and silky texture. The chef was kind enough to serve us limoncello and it was on the house! We were very pleased with his kind gesture.

Looking through the finest selection of bakery on display, we decided on their Specialty Ham & Cheese Bun,
Chocolate Almond Croissant and the widely acclaimed Caramelized Salted Butter Croissant! The Specialty Bun was
pretty filling, served with a sumptuous vegatables and tasty ham topped it off with cheese. The Chocolate Almond
Croissant was my favourite as the crispy crush on the outside and the chocolate inside makes it very nice. The
Caramelized Salted Butter Croissant blends the sweetness of caramel and the butter very well, leaving sugary
salted aftertaste. Definitely one of the best bakery in town now!

It was a perfect brunch date at Hatched on a sunny saturday. I ordered the Papillote (smoked salmon folded over scrambled eggs with chive cream with toast and potatoes with caramelized onions) with an ice latte. The smoked salmon was sliced too thin and the scrambled eggs seemed like "home cooked" standard. But in overall, it tasted not that bad. The ambience was good and the interior design is decorated with the 'egg' theme which i thought was quite cute!

Knowing that my friends were going to be late for another 1 hour, I walked around star vista, hoping to find a place with available seats during the peak dinner hour. Luckily, i found this gem which was tucked quietly at a corner of Star Vista. I ordered a chai tea latte and a small slice of lemon yogurt loaf. The cake was appetizing due to the refreshing lemon flavour. The chai tea latte was quite sweet as compared to cafe latte. Will definitely pop by again in the future for small bites.
