Best American Baby Back Ribs  Smile Sep 13, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Bars/Lounges

First the ambience is relaxing, everytime I go over for dinner, I leave, relaxed, satisfied and contented. The alfresco dining area under the big rain tree is so beautiful and the wooden decking with outdoor furniture is so rustic and unpretentious, so you can go casual, or smart, and just kick back and enjoy.

The margaritas are to die for, and on Mondays, they are just $8++ a glass all day and night, what a deal, but we were there on a Tuesday and they had the Champagne at $24++ for 2 glasses, in fact all week long all kinds of specials.

Been coming to this restaurant since they opened in 2005 and I must say their favourites are still good - baby back ribs are 'fall off the bone' finger lickin good and the mash potato that go with it is so good, or you could opt for chili dusted fries and they are so 'shiok'.
The buffalo wings - they have a sucide hot (wow - way off the Scottsville chart). Only for the brave souls. Besides all this wonderful American favourites, they have a Chef that can whip up something special if you feel like a little more Italian or French food. On this particular day, the Chef was trying out some new dishes and we had the most wonderful foie gras dish.

Having said that, I was also at this place for lunch and their set lunch deals are so good, 2 courses for just $23.90++ and the selection is so varied and they change the menu fortnightly, so there are different colours, red, gold, beige, ?? one more colour I can't remember, but the choices for the 2 or 3 or 4 courses are great. Not only that, the coffee / tea is included and they have the most wonderful dessert - Chocolate Lava Torte, the chocolate just oozes when you cut into the cake and the berry compote that goes with it is divine. tongue
Together with their great coffee - think it is Vittoria coffee they serve, what a way to complete a meal. Most places charge you for coffee, but when freshly brewed coffee is served free, wow, you save $5 bucks already.

I will keep going back to this restaurant as I've never been disappointed with their service or food!

Food Spread OK Sep 13, 2013

We had lunch there just to try out the food as the Italian restaurant we used to visit was closed. We were told we cannot have wine bottle on the table as it was against the rules, however, they served us the wine but the bottle was opened and hidden from us? Very weird for a restaurant in a 5 star hotel.

The food was quite good, but for that price, they didn't have oysters on the cold section. However, their was a lot of spicy food. There was a wide selection of desserts and the egg tart is the best. In fact we complimented the chef who was walking around and clearing the dishes.

The ambience is ok, feels very café like with modern glass décor all over. Ask for a table away from the buffet table for more privacy.

Best Poh Piah in town Smile Sep 13, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Peranakan / Nonya

I visit Coronation Plaza often and what ever I do, I must have the poh piah. The skin is nice and soft and the filling is so tasty and chili and sauce is just nice with crispy bits. tongue

My family is peranankan, and we do make our own poh piah, but it is just very tedious, so this is the best next to mom's poh piah.

Besides Poh Piah, they serve an outstanding laksa, the gravy is just nice, not too thick and the tau pok is yummy. This is way better than the normal laksa where the gravy can sometimes be too thin and runny or way to thick.
 
Recommended Dish(es):  poh piah,laksa,mee siam
