Service
Chef Fabian is one of those chefs who takes on the dual duty of going hands-on preparing meals in the kitchen and also making the effort to come out and mingle with the guests whenever he could. The staff were not very informed but the Chef's energy and hospitality is enough to make up for his whole service crew.
Price & Ambiance
Food were definitely value for money. The place also opens till 1 a.m, so it is great for people living in the east to meet up for supper. There is also flat screen TV, so yes for all you World Cup fans, you won't miss your matches.
Food
Each dish was well thought out and one-of-a-kind - from the starters, to the main course, to the drinks and even the condiments!
I can't really say much about the Lamb Rack Mega I ordered ($14) because - and I'm quite embarrassed to admit this - I was so addicted to the starters and drinks, I lose all self control such that when it came to the main course, I was already full and couldn't quite enjoy it to the fullest capacity. But really, can you blame me? Just look at those starters if you will, please! The mashed potato salad with ham served cold, though sounds very ordinary on the menu at first, looks anything but so. It was interestingly served in a cup that made the whole dish look like ice cream. And how exactly did he make such a boring dish so flavorful?
Then there were the nuggets, chicken wings and fries which were true to Chef Fabian's words: Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Dip these sinful starters into the nacho-cheese-based special sauce of Chef Fabian, and off to foodie heaven I go!
I have the Lamb Rack Mega for the main course and didn't find it anything fantastic (price or taste or uniqueness), but like I said, it could just be the fact that my taste buds were biased and still lusting after the starters. The Ice Tea Cino (a deadly combination of milk, tea and whipped cream) didn't help with my digestion either.
Oh dear, it is pretty late now and what is that I hear? My stomach craving for another round of nuggets, chicken wings and special cheese sauce! Wonder what still open in the East at 9 p.m...
