Five & Dime is a modern concept that blends the nostalgia and trendy style. Black and white, wood and tile combination do not go out of style all time provides an overall classic look. The space is quite limited so be sure to make a reservation to avoid any disappointment. Somerset MRT station is the nearest station and you need to walk approximately 10-15 minutes time to reach the place. Alternatively, there is a bus stop just opposite the café so do check out the directions if you are heading

It was a lovely evening with a great companion for dinner. We started off with Soup of the Day @S$7.00. It was a good start with a slice of garlic bread.
Next, we had ala-carte Wings @S$7.00 that serves three pieces of 9-spiced chicken wings. Crispy wings and it was serving pipping hot! Smokes were coming out when we took a bite.
My partner ordered Fish & Chips @S$20.00. Battered shark catfish fillets served with hand-cut fries.Fish batter was very light and cripsy and the fish texture are soft and smooth. The fries tasted crispy and delicious as well. We enjoyed the deep fried battered fish as it was served in smaller pieces and makes us easier to take a quick bite of it.
I ordered Mentaiko Pasta @S$18.00. Spaghetti tossed in creamy mentaiko, topped with more cod fish roe. The pasta was cooked to al dente and the mentaiko sauce was tasted refreshing. But the I felt that the price is overpriced as it does not served any other ingredients except for mentaiko and cod fish roe. I saw some reviews come with yakitori skewer but mine does not come with it. Not sure if the menu had some changes though.
As for the drinks, we ordered 2 Somersby Cider as there was a promotion for happy hours if I remembered correctly. So, we got the deal of S$12.00 for 2 bottles.
Total dinner inclusive of 10% Service charge & 7% GST was S$83.57. Overall dinning experience was pleasant as the serving time was within 20 minutes time and the foods quality was still within our expectation. The restaurant’s ambience was perfect ending for my birthday treats.Post
