Weekday Lunch with my friend - respectable standards with prompt service.

Since Pu-erh is the famous tea, I quickly told the waitress after sitting down.

The waitress served soy bean sheets as appertiser nowadays, but still can request the captain to give another plate of peanuts if you know her well.

We never look at the menu and just listen to the waitress's recommendation, then placed order accordingly.

This was my third visit to this restaurant in my life and we enjoyed sumptuous Chinese cuisine such as dim sum like fried carrot cake, also known as Chai Tow Kueh for lunch.

Perfect for a clear shark fin dumpling soup.

Assam Cod Fish with lady fingers and crunchy broccoli with garlic sauce are considered our main course.

Stewed claypot chicken with bitter gourd was not bad when mix with rice.

Before bill settlement, we ordered Gui Ling Gao - herbal turtle jelly.

Note: The manager will offer diners a complimentary cake on their birthdays.

I told my friend, Miss Sharyl Poh that Manna Story is a Korean restaurant, which serves authentic Korean cuisine. Instead of eating dessert, we walked over to have a queue in front of that dessert store just now. The food was tasty and tastes so fresh.

The place has good ambient and good services. I liked their house decorations and it gave me a feel like go back to kindergarden school or korean friend's house with a very homely and cosy atmosphere.

Although the waiting time for the restaurant seat is a bit long, it worth to queue up just because of the food.

When both of us looked at their menu, we found out that they have an extensive Korean menu. After that, we decided to try their set lunch because it is until 4.30 p.m.

I was surprised when the service crew served Minute Maid White Grape instead of Mirinda Grape because can drinks usually cost much than the machine dispensed drink.

Their set lunch menu had Kimchi Jjigae and it came with rice and the side dishes. Steamed rice was served in stainless steel bowls and typical Korean stainless steel.

My friend ordered the 김치볶음밥 (Kimchi Fried Rice) for herself, whereas for me, I ordered Spicy Pork Cutlet.

A generous portion of pork cutlet and spicy, which really enhances the flavour of the otherwise plain pork.

My friend told me that this is the best place for Mookata, so I requested my girlfriend to have dinner with me last evening from 8.00 p.m. to 10.00 p.m.

Before confirming with her, I quickly whatsapp the crew for all kind of information especially buffet dinner because she did not want to have the mookata set for 2 person due to not worth in eating that.

Subsequently, I sent the Location map for her to get there.

She was really surprised on how good the food here after eating it. At the price of $25.90+GST is an offer in the hotpot scene. However, their buffet menu is not inclusive of drinks. Their choice of drinks are Lemongrass/Lime Juice/Coffee/Tea, so we chose Lemongrass and Thai Iced Tea because her favourite is the lemon grass drink.

Fresh Seafood as follows:

Grilled Mussels - They are quite good and flavoured nicely set in the serving plate.

Grilled Prawns - I thought that this was the best dish in the restaurant. The prawns are huge, especially the head!! It was so good that the first time we ordered it (So big, so juicy and so good).

Raw Cockle Clams - Unable to grill, so we cook inside the soup.

Authentic Recipe as follows:

Thai Fish Cakes - Crunchy, juicy and tasty. Very good when dipped in the sweet and sour sauce provided with a plate of garlic.

Thai Style BBQ Pork Collar - This is a well-marinated and very flavourful cut of meat.

We decided not to eat too full because we want to eat supper at Ye Zhi Mei Homemade Dimsum since we were back to Maude Road.

Conclusion: No need to go Bangkok, Thailand because you get the chance to eat it in Singapore.

I told my friend that this restaurant is a hidden gem in Plaza Singapura, so we decided to give it a try since it looked pretty authentic.

We sat the single table in front of cashier and the waiter requested what kind of drinks do we want while my friend and me are having conversations.

The service and attitude was very good, so we just ordered Iced Green Tea.

We are glad that we got the best agadashi tofu we ever had.

Miso soup has salmon slices in it too.

Food is very fresh, so we hope that all food lovers will try here after reading this review.

Conclusion: Highly recommended because it has great value and consistently good food.

Although the menu did not look nice, my China girlfriend would like to give it a try.

The tomato soup is okay when the garlic bread could dip into it and melt in your mouth.

I ordered steak set that came with prawns and spaghetti. Steak being chosen by me as medium well. The prawns they gave was not small prawns and I find that the pricing for this set is cheap as my set lunch during weekend.

The waiter was very attentive and it's worth for second visit even though the ambience was not so nice. However, the quality of food with that kind of price, which we paid able to compensate the ambience.
