Located along Upper paya lebar road with an eye catching shop sign "Saturday House" is this cafe that sells itself as a bar and cafe. It sells mostly western food in the form of hipster cafe food but also alcoholic drinks.Their signature menu items include sirloin steak at $22.90+ or top up 4@ for $24.90++ you get the mix grill combo of grilled chicken, sirloin steak and bacon. Other signature menu itmes are leg of lamb, grilled pork collar and chicken leg in chef's bbq sauce.Their starters range from marmite mid-joint wings $8+ to bacon cheese mushrooms, cream cheese fries and oven baked cheese nachos.You will notice that their shop entrance has no door, and the air con basically just goes out the main door. So it's ridiculous at how hot it can be inside the cafe. At most cafes, you would expect air conditioning, and the air conditioning here is useless. My suggestion, get one of the tables closest to the wall, where the air con unit is mounted.1. Fried Pork Collar $8+The fried pork collar looked amazing even though it carried no aroma of fried meat. It tasted okay, more like a typical pork katsu you would find at a japanese stall just with less meat and very thin.It was an okay started but we quickly grew tired of it. 2. Mixed Grill Combo $24.90+The mixed grill combo looked amazin until I sliced into the steak, which you can definitely tell was very frozen, probably a long time ago. It tasted like cardboard. I know for this price, we cannot expect much but, it was probably one of the worst steak I've tried.The chicken was way better than the steak. The bacon was probably the only thing I even consider having a second bite of. The coleslaw and wedges were sides that we got to pick and they were okay. My suggestion, skip this.3. Marmite Mid Joint Wings $8+These were surprisingly good. The wings were crispy and the marmite sauce was evenly distributed on the exterior of the wings. I really liked this and would most probably get this again if I ever returned.Overall : this place tries too hard to be a cafe or a bar. There is free parking infront of it, which is nice. There's not much to rave about the food, and the ambience is miserable, if only they could close the front door. Service was rather quick and the staff was polite.

Saturday House Cafe located along upper paya lebar road, easily catches the attention of passer-bys with its bright signage among all the old shop houses. Not located in the busiest or hippest district in town, but it definitely has its own charm to attract their customers. Something simple for their decoration and lights are kept dim at certain area for some relaxing moments.Bacon Cheese Mushrooms ($10): Tiny bits of bacon mixed with cheese topped on a button mushroom and deep fried after breaded with crumbs. Appearance brings much anticipation, but the first bite results in much disappointment. Nothing too fanciful, overall taste is a little too light and plain. It’s the feeling of i am just eating a breaded button mushroom, i can make do without the cheese and bacon. If the taste of cheese and bacon comes in stronger, i think it will be a better combination. But i must say i quite like the breaded coating for the mushroom. It’s nice.Prawn Arrabiata ($14.90): Tomato based pasta served with crunchy fresh prawns. Flavor was good and pasta texture was done well.Grilled Pork Collar ($18.90): Char grilled pork collar served with baked potato and a garden salad. Surprisingly, the pork collar is done well. The meat is tender, succulent and juicy. Though it may be a little light on its taste. We kept thinking that they might have forgotten the black pepper sauce that we have chosen it for its dressing, but since the meat tasted good on its own, we didnt went to clarify for the sauce either.Marmite mid joint wings ($8): How often do we see marmite in our meals nowadays! In my memory, i used to eat marmite with porridge when i was very young. A unique marination used for the chicken wings. Crispy and juicy wings with a little salti-sh-sweet flavor.Macadamia nut brownie ($): We wanted to order their lava cake, but it was sold out. So the waiter recommended us their brownie. Indeed it was a good choice made. The brownie was warm, moist and dense. Not too sweet too. The chocolate chips enhances the overall chocolatey flavor while the nuts balance out the sinful-ness of the brownie.Dining experience was a great one. Friendly and helpful service. Simple and fresh ingredients used for their dishes. Outlook of cafe and presentation of dishes may not be that outstanding, but the creative use of ingredients, flavor and taste of dishes definitely make up for it.http://poohlovesfood.wordpress.com/2015/01/14/saturday-house-cafe/ for full review
