Who says that you have to fly all the way to Europe to get the taste? Singapore being a multi-racial country, we are fortunate to have restaurants like Ambush who provide Europe cuisine to stop the torture of 16 or more hours of flight, and for people like me who haven’t been to Europe before! To say getting a little taste of Europe, I would say, getting a little taste of almost every parts of Europe.

Who says that you have to fly all the way to Europe to get the taste? Singapore being a multi-racial country, we are fortunate to have restaurants like Ambush who provide Europe cuisine to stop the torture of 16 or more hours of flight, and for people like me who haven’t been to Europe before! To say getting a little taste of Europe, I would say, getting a little taste of almost every parts of Europe. They only use the freshest ingredients, choose from tantalizing, mussels from Belgium, scrumptious paella from Spain, juicy sausages from Germany and delectable pasta from Italy!
So heading in to one restaurant, Ambush, your taste buds have already traveled around Europe before you do!
Beverage:
I ordered Shirley’s temple- fizzy mocktail and punch. It really refreshing and the taste of cherry aren't lacking. Always, I ordered blue coral but I think it has replace that favorite fizzy mocktail of mine! As, it really taste refreshing even without mint, and it isn’t really sweet with that soda taste! It has a little sweet and sour taste which makes you crave for more when you start drinking a slip of it. Shirley's Temple- $5.90
Oktoberfest!
Oktoberfest is the world’s largest fair held annually in Munich, Bavaria, Germany. It is a 16-day festival running from late September to the first weekend in October with more than 6 million people from around the world attending the event every year. To the locals, it is not called Oktoberfest, but die Wies’n, after the colloquial name of the fairgrounds themselves.
In Germany, sausages are a MUST ! Even their vending machine have Sausages ! WHY SINGAPORE NO HAVE?!?!?!?
Anyway, their sausages are FREAKING delicious please, how I wish I could eat it like NOW ! Heehee. The sausages are really fat and when you bite, it has the split open feeling. *ahem* I eat like a lady okay. And this dish is Berlin's star pan seared bratwurst (a typical type of sausage found in Germany) which is perfectly matched with the brown sauce Currywrust - $16.50
I'm not someone who really enjoy eating chicken breast meat as they are usually dry and hard, but in Ambush, it's totally different. I enjoyed eating the chicken Gordon bleu as they add the cheese and ham inside the chicken breast which allow it to be more flavoured + it isn't so stiff after the stir frying ! Together with the sauce of mushroom cream sauce and having strong tasting mashed potatoes. Oh, there are three dishes that has mashed potatoes and all taste differently ! Chicken Gordon Bleu - $18.50
Squid Ink pasta are always something that people are not willing to give it a try, simply because it's totally black. And looks are of course important. However, you will be totally surprise by its taste and what people always say 'do not judge a book by its cover'. This fit perfectly for the squid Ink spaghetti ! Squid link sauce actually make the pasta taste a little sweet together with the clams. And actually the pasta isn't as oily as it seen in the picture, it's the squid ink sauce which give that oily look. But nevertheless, it's delicious and teeth staining ! Hahaha ! Not a first date dish man ladies ! Baby Scallop and Flying Fish Roe with Squid Ink Sauce (S$14.80)
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE !!!!!
Hahahas, yes, I go gaga whenever I saw this dish !! A roasted garlic and herb rubbed chicken legs that has a thin layer of cripy skin with that thick tender meat ! And I'm not kidding when I said thick ! Even thought there is garlic, but the taste of the chicken is full of the fresh herb and the creamy mushroom sauce ! OMO, I FEEL HUNGRY NOW. LOL Desserts: Apple crisp is like the favourite among all those chocolaty desserts ! It has whipped cream, ice cream and of course the apple crisp. And perhaps is because all are chocolate desserts while this is stand out for all those dishes.
The apple crisp is like a pie, having thin crust at the side, while apple in the middle. And trust me, the apple are like real apple, while add on the crisp-ness in the pie. Also, with those sweet caramel :> Nom nom
