Dinner at Ambush seems to be the in thing currently with long queues once it hits 7pm. I didn't make a reservation but I went pretty early (around 7 or so?) to ensure that we'd get a seat. The open-concept of Ambush gives it a really spacious feel.Ambush serves European and German food, such as bratwurst sausages, sauerkraut, squid ink pasta just to name a few. It's been relatively popular in Singapore, with several branches poopping up all over the island.I ordered the sausage set with 2 sausag

I ordered the sausage set with 2 sausages (choice of sausage being smoked bratwurst) with a starch side of rosti and sauerkraut. It's around $12.90 (if I didn't remember wrongly) for this plate of sausage, rosti and fresh greens. The smoked bratwurst had crisp skin with tender pork meat, it was on the salty side but very tasty for a smoked sausage. Way exceeded my expectations. The rosti was served with sour cream and sauerkraut (which tastes a bit like the chinese cai por if you've never tried it before!). The rosti was a bit bland for my liking, but tasted great with a dash of salt. The sour cream wasn't too cloying and provided a nice rich finish. The fresh salad had a dressing of presumably balsamic vinegar -it could have been a bit better with a touch of olive oil. 3.5/5My company tried the ribeye at $21 and while we absolutely adored the fries (distinct fluffy potato texture, fried to perfection, evenly salted and delicious on the whole), the steak was mediocre at best. He rated it a 3/5, so I suppose you can get better steak elsewhere!
The huge hype over Ambush is justified I suppose -the food they serve here is pretty good and the service is decent too. At such great prices, it's definitely worth a shot.
