A hidden gem in the west!
Operating during the dinner time slot in a coffeeshop which serves dim sum in the morning, The Carving Board offers a wide variety of delectable western cuisine which includes snacks, grills, burgers and spaghetti.
I saw reviews that this place is rather crowded and its a long wait before the food is served to you. I guess we were lucky as we did not need to queue to order our food because we reached there before the dinner crowd starts flowing in.
We saw the place slowly being filled up while waiting for our food to be served.
Well, it didn't take too long for the food to be served.
Homemade Ice Lemon Tea (S$1.80)
Rather refreshing drink. However its a tad too sour making the taste of the tea not so prominent.
Rosemary Chicken Chop (S$7.50)
Tender chicken meat with the sauce complementing the whole dish. The fries on the other hand was a little disappointing as its not hot and crispy.
Norwegian Salmon Steak (S$14)
The salmon steak was fresh and though its well done, the meat is not tough. A pity I didn't have the chance to ask the owner what is the grains that was served together with the salmon steak (I thought it looks like millet) as its quite delicious. A rather good substitution for rice.
Barbecue Pork Chop (S$9)
I usually don't order pork chop because the places that I have tried mostly had the pork chop too overcooked making the meat quite tough. I decided to give this a chance as this is one of the chef recommended dish in the menu.
This is indeed worth trying. Meat was tender and succulent with a tinge of the barbecue taste. I especially love the potatoes that comes with it. Its soft and tasty, definitely better than some other places.
There are still so many other items in the menu that we have yet to try. Definitely will return some day to check it out, especially their handmade burgers.
