More reviews can be found here www.umakemehungry.comSwensens on birthday? Not a bad idea as the birthday girl/guy will receive a complete birthday treat over the firehouse flame.By default the firehouse comes with Vanilla, Chocolate and Strawberry Ice cream topped with cherries, pineapple and chocolate fudge toppings but I had the ice cream flavors replaced. Instead of having vanilla ice cream, we opted for durian with little candle stuck onto a portion of the banana in the middle. And for the sweet tooth, we had the banana crumble on its sizzling skilling with caramelized fresh banana slices, topped with an old fashioned vanilla ice cream drenched in butterscotch cream sauce.Read More

Swensen's is the place for ice-cream and desserts! I was craving for ice-cream and the first place that popped into my mind was Swensen's. I decided to go for The Rock rather than the usual Topless 5 or Banana Split because I realized I haven't been adventurous enough in trying out Swensen's menus.Well, the Rock ($8.90++) is made up of three flavours - rocky road, cookies and cream and Sticky Chewy Chocolate. I love it!!! The sticky chewy chocolate flavour especially, because it reminds me of dark chocolate melting and yet it's coldddd. Lovely. Well, if there's a recommendation for happiness, I'll recommend you to go for the Topless 5 and order at least two portions of sticky chewy chocolate! Read More

When i visit Swensen's, it's more often to get their ice cream cakes then the food. Their ice cream cakes is one of the nicest which I have tried and I do prefer this over the normal cakes. Although it is not easy to slice it with a normal plastic cake knife, it is still worth every ounce of effort. My mum bought this cake recently for a birthday celebration and I was squealing in delight. The cake boosted a strong vanilla flavour and tasted like ice-cream (duh) and i like the frozen biscuit base at the bottom. It provides a different texture to the cake which i enjoy. The ice cream is also not too sweet and so its good for kids and adults alike to enjoy! Definitely a favorite with kids.Swensen's always provide a thick box for transporting these cakes along with some dry ice which helps to preserve the cake and keep it cool under the hot weather.Read More

FOODCrabmeat Fried RiceTraditional fried rice tossed with soft-shell crab, carrots, mushrooms and egg. The soft-shell crab is very crispy, but the fried rice is a little tasteless, totally incomparable to the type of Chinese fried-rice in other places. The soft-shell crab is the only appeal to me. $15 for such a dish is a little over-priced. Mozzarella Cheese SticksThese fried mozzarella cheese sticks are far much better. Crispy and the cheese is great! PRICEThe food in Swensen's are usually slightly pricey, and that explains why I do not frequent the place. It's only worthy to have a meal here only when they have special offers for their lunch set meal. It can be as cheap as $10, but vary for different dishes.AMBIENCEI don't really like the open-concept restaurant in Jurong Point, because everyone can look at you when you eat, and it's quite uneasy for me. It's also quite noisy and can hardly chat over dinner with your friends. Expect a waiting time till 30 mins on weekends.Read More

There is Swensen's promotion between 2pm to 5pm for their ice cream. Students will be able to get 2 sundae a $10.80 and adults at $12.80. I ordered the banana split today and my friends ordered the rock. Banana split is one of their best seller in the stall. I changed the flavor of the ice cream to Butterscotch, Chocolate peanut butter and macadamia nut, which are all my favourite. The ice cream was very nice and creamy. When the 3 flavours mixed together, it was also very nice. However, the banana was fully mature, therefore it was not sweet at all and there is a sour taste. The banana destroyed the taste of ice cream. The waffle biscuits was very unique. There is a Swensen word written on it and it was very crispy. Overall i will rate it 8 out of 10. The service was great and the environment was clean! :) it is really worth going! Read More

Went to JP Swensen's with my friends on a Friday night and we waited for 30 minutes before we got our seats. Service is quite efficient but the food is not as nice. I had ordered the curry chicken bake rice and I can't really taste the curry. My friends and I shared the mozarella cheese sticks as a starter. It didn't came with the tomato sauce and tasted a little uncooked and oily. Read More

Had breakfast with my mum last Saturday at Swensen. I forgotten the dish name my mum ordered but you can see the photo below. As for me, I ordered the Big Hearty Breakfast which is similar to the dish in the photo with additional bread and ham. I have to say the portion of the dishes were big and the mushrooms in the cup were really delicious. Give it to me anytime and I would eat it!I would definitely come back for more next time! :)Read More

It has been more than 5 years since I dine in at swensen. It was till recently I dine in there because of my friend The price was around $10 plus plus, it is really worth the value for three big pieces of chicken. The chicken is juicy inside and crispy on the outside. The coleslaw was average, could be better, overall, food wasn't too bad but their service is rather slow....Read More

sour dough burgerThe sourdough chicken buns were rather pathetically small, as you can see below; however the serving of fries did help. Although the burger is quite small, i still managed to get full after the meal.ate their all-time favourites - Crayfish pasta. Besides our mains, its generous servings were usually appreciated as it stretched our dollars. baked pastachocolate ice cream boatRead More

This Curry Baked Rice is delicious. The chicken is soft and tender. The curry itself is very tasteful and goes well with the rice. There are also potatoes in it and it is very soft and nice. The portion given is more than enough to fill my stomach. The environment is very suitable for chilling and enjoying a nice meal. Read More
