If you have a hard time finding this place, look for Daiso, it's right next to it. It has a nice entrance, which makes you think you're walking into a castle. But now that it's october, it has a halloween to it, so there's a skeletons on the POS systems etc. The TV screens are playing some Lancelot movie.. and the sound system was playing KISS 92. Pretty random tbh! The lighting is quite dim as well, which is why if you check out all the photos of this restaurant that customers post on instagram

1) Highlandar Pumpkin Soup
I was told that it was made from scratch. There wasn't any lumps in it, but it was very thick, which made me reach for my glass of water several times. The garlic bread was okay, it was the only reason I tasted the soup. The plate was shallow and prolly like 150ml of soup at max, even though the soup bowl was bigger than the salad bowl.
2) English-Style Bacon Caesar Salad / The King Louis Platter
The bacon caesar salad isn't something to rave about, the veggies were okay, the bacon were crispy and there was alot of salad dressing.. def not a low calorie salad.
The king louis platter was a mixture of onion rings, garlic and chicken sausages and wedges. Finger food plater basically. The onion rings and wedges were okay, but for the chicken sausages, one was all shrivelled up and dry, whereas the other one was juicier and pretty good. My table had a debate on whether they were two different sausages, but when asked, the waiter told us they were the same sausage. QC problem? All the finger food was served with sweet chilli sauce. YAY!
3-7 Queen Isabelle Platter
3) Roasted Beef with Black Pepper Sauce
We asked for medium well, but the 3/5 slices of beef were well and 2/5 were medium well. Pretty upsetting if you ask me, since I will NOT EAT A DESTROYED WELL DONE beef. Anyways, the medium well tasted bitter..
4) Premium BBQ Baby Back Ribs
The meat was pretty tender and soft, I liked it. Best of the 4 proteins! The meat fell off the bones easily.
5) Roasted English- Style Queen Pullet
I asked if the chicken was frozen, and was told it was chilled. The chicken thighs were juicy, however the breast was sooo dry. I don't know why, but if you read other reviews, other people have also mentioned this problem. o_O
6) Lamb Steak with Rosemary Herbs
The lamb tasted lamby.. wish they would've castrated the lamb before killing it!~! Nonetheless, my table loved it more than the dry chicken
7) A Scoop of Ice Cream of the Day
Coconut ice cream with almond flakes on top, they were very generous with the almond flakes. However the flakes were laid ontop of a layer of honey. Which made the ice cream too sweet for my taste. Honey aside, I dug in and I actually enjoyed the coconut ice cream. You would think that for a Halloween feast, they would serve you pumpkin ice cream right? But the coconut icecream with almond flakes was a great way to end the meal
