This is my 2nd time having Astons. It was a few years back when i 1st tried Astons at the stall located in a kopitiam in Hougang. Experience was not that good though. However, my wife managed to convince me to give it a try again. Comes with two generous servings of sides dishes, Macaroni with cheese and mashed potatoes. The cheese was very thick, reminds me of the cheese that normally comes with nachos. The rib eye was nicely grilled and tendered. It was quite juicy too!
Slightly charred, the fish was quite fresh and the sauce that comes with it had a mild herbal taste which goes nicely with the fish.

Overall, it was a good and affordable meal (spent less than $30 for 2) & it does change my opinion on Astons.

Had my lunch at this restaurant located at B3 of ION. Home Made Soy Bean - Not too sweet but quite normal which i don't think it is home made. Lu Gang Fried Rice - Generous servings of Chinese sausage and bits of prawns, the fried rice was not too wet or dry. And it was full of the aroma of eggs. Quite nice.Crispy Duck Fried Popiah - Similar to Beijing roast duck, instead of using the normal skin wrap, it was wrapped like a popiah and deep fried. Cant really taste the duck meat.

It was my 2nd visit to kkongdon. (My previous experience at the ang mo kio branch was not bad.)

Ordered their set dinner for 2. It comes with a plate of meat ( beef short ribs and pork belly), one small plate of spicy rice cake, a bowl of kimchi soup. There is also a buffet counter with a few types of kimchis.

The Rice cake was quite soft but the cockles that comes with it tasted abit too fishy to me. The soup was not too bland and it was a little spicy. Overall, still not bad.

Located at the newly renovated Balestier Food Centre, King's Roasts is the new joint for those who loves roasted meat. Deep Fried Tofu - Crispy on the outside and silky on the inside, with the sauce that was sweet & spicy. Roasted Pork - Not fatty & greasy, instead, it was juicy and tender. Char Siew - The Char Siew was tender, juicy. The sauce reminds me of Bak Kwa. Very different from the usual char siew you normally get in other places

Overall, I would recommend this place for all roasted meat lovers to give it a try!

Was craving for some sweet stuff after our dinner, so my wife and i decided to drop by Ice Edge Cafe for dessert. Everything was fine until when our order was mixed up with another table. They served our waffle to the table beside us. Because of serving the wrong order to the other table, they offered them for free but nothing was being offered to us after we feedback to the server that we had been waiting for a long time for the waffle .( hey look, we are the victims!) Mao Shan Wang Lava Cake - The cake was soft with a very strong fragrance of durian ( Mao Shan Wang filling was flowing out of the cake when i cut it open) . It also comes with a gelato of your choice. i had chosen the Rum & Raisin ice cream,and trust me, one can really get drunk as the alcohol taste was quite strong in a good way. Waffle with Ice cream - The waffle seems to be abit under cooked maybe because they are rushing out the order for us . The Roche Ice Cream was nice though, creamy and rich.
