We order the $14 Cali Cafe Fish and Chip and we waited a whopping 45mins for it and the worst part is the food was not served in sequence. I am very sure me and my friend order our food first (the cashier even key in infront of us as we order direct through the cashier not waitress) follow by 2 other customers who came in later and they order their food later then us. Guess what, they are being served first.

I observed for a while and 2 Ang Moh customer whom came in later then a table with Chinese customer and guess what. The food arrive first for the Ang Moh customer than the Chinese table customers. Both are paying customers.

Not a single smile from the Indian supervisor (not surprisingly). The waitress is cheerful but over all service experience is a combination of food waiting time and being served in the right sequence to avoid biasness. To me this restaurant totally fail in their service.

The food arrived and there was nothing special to be honest. The fried fish is very dry and thinly sliced. I got to squeeze all the lemon to make it more moistured. If without the lemon juice to cover the fish, there is a faint taste of unfreshness from the fish. The fries are saltish and the rocket leaf salad totally fail as the salad did not pick up the taste from the black colour sauce. Totally not worth it to pay $14 for each plate of fish and chip with a  waiting time of 45mins and moreover the tables are not full during lunch time and the food are not served in sequence with extreme biasness.

Wildfire Burgers restaurant is located just outside 313 somerset. It can be easily found and this place is suitable for a quick bite or drinks with your friends as they serve a wide variety of beverages like alcohol, wine, beer, soft drink etc.

1. Black Ebi Burger

I rate this 5/5. This burger is made of breaded prawn patty with butterhead lettuce, sliced tomatoes, grilled pumpkin, Yuzu kosho mayonnaise and squid ink between charcoal brioche buns. The prawns inside the patty is full size big prawns and every bite is crispy, juicy and crunchy. The Yuzu kosho mayonnaise blend extremely well with the prawn patty. For the sides we have the french fries and they are hot, crispy, delicious and mildly seasoned with some spice on it as well. The chief told us we can change the default mildy spiced fries to other flavours like the Curry Fries or the Sichuan Fries at no extra cost. 

 
2. Truffled Mushroom Burger

I rate this 4/5. This burger is made of beef patty, beer caramelised onions, sauteed mushrooms, cheese, truffle oil, truffle mayonnaise and their signature master sauce. The beef is big and juicy and the mixture of various forest mushrooms and rocket leaves combination create a nice delicious taste to it. For the sides we have the french fries and they are crispy and seasoned with some spice on it as well. However the burger overall is quite oily. Maybe they can do something to absorb the oil from the patty and the bun itself.

 
3. Southern Style Fried Chicken

I rate this 4/5. The fried chickens are extremely crispy, juicy and fresh. The dish is topped with pickled cucumbers and cabbage below. It is recommended that you dip the chicken into the maple syrup that comes with it as the chicken taste good with it. Overall it taste good but nothing special to it and it is a bit oily as well.

 
4. Sriracha Glazed Fried Chicken

I rate this 2/5. I personally cannot eat chilly hot stuff and this fried chicken is too hot for me. The fried chickens are extremely crispy, juicy and oily as well. This dish is suitable for those who like hot chilliy stuff.

 
5. Curry Fries

I rate this 4/5. The curry power sprinkle onto the hot crispy fries make it taste good and delicious and the fries are topped with curry leaves as well. Crispy and yummy is how I describe this dish.

 
6. Sichuan Fries

I rate this 1/5. After I eat the Sichuan fries my tongue feels numb and the feeling is not very good. The taste is weird and it left an unpleasant after effect taste in your mouth and I attribute it to the Sichuan seasoning sprinkle onto the fries. Overall nothing special and I recommend you all to avoid eating it at all cost.

 
7. Chilly Cheese Fries

I rate this 2/5. The Chilly Cheese Fries are sprinkle with spring onions, melted cheese, mayonnaise and chilly paste. The cheese taste very mild compare to the KFC cheese fries. Even though I am those who cannot eat chilly hot stuff, the hotness of the chilly cannot be felt by me at all. The title of this dish does not match the taste and for the steep price of $15, I would rather go to KFC to eat their cheese fries instead.

 
To conclude this restaurant give me a feeling it is trying to compete with Mcdonald, KFC, Burgerking, EWF etc. I would have rate this place higher if the price comes down a bit more and they should try to remove the oil from their burgers and fried chicken as I am quit health conscious about it.

Charcoal Thai Food review !!!! OK Dec 18, 2015   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Thai | Restaurant | Buffet | Mookata

Today I went to Charcoal Thai for lunch. The atmosphere is nice and good. Even though there are only 3 staff, they manage to serve everyone in a speedy and polite manner. Waiting time is at most around 8mins to 15mins.

Below are the dish we order :

1) Thai Mookata BBQ Steamboat set.

This dish is a nice and yummy steamboat and BBQ hybrid. First we melt the fats on top of the cover, then we place all the meat on top of it to BBQ. The rest like prawns, vegetables etc are all place at the soup base with a choice of either tom yum or chicken soup. I personally prefer chicken soup as it is not so spicy. This combination is really delicious and interesting with BBQ on top and soup below.

2) Thai beauty collagen hotpot.

The waitress will put the huge white jelly like collagen into the pot and it will slowly melt. Next we just dump in all the ingredients like meat and vegetables into it and wait for it to get cooked. The overall taste is a bit saltish with MSG and blend nothing special so it is not really recommended topay such a high price for this dish. Moreover the pork is very hard and stiff which cannot be eat and we got to throw away. There are too little meat and just a few vegetables. The soup also dry up fast and the waitress got to keep topping up with more collagen. The collagen looks like fats to me so I will avoid drinking the soup if I am you.

 
Taste normal and saltish with MSG.

3) Thai Chicken Hotpot Set

This dish is spicy and flavourful suitable to be eaten with rice. The chilly in the soup can be a bit hot so I recommend you all to scoop out the chicken cube and eat it seperately if you cannot stand hot chilly food. I recommend this dish due to it's low price.
Good value chicken cube cook in spicy thai soup.

4) Thai Milk tea and Lemon grass drink

The Thai Milk tea is too sweat and seriously nothing special. I prefer the Lemon grass drink as it is not so sweat and it is refreshing as well.

Pork cutlet OK Aug 26, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Japanese

I happen to go to 313 Somerset so I pop by at Coco Ichibanya to have a taste of their curry rice. I order according to the spiciness level from mild to extreme hot on a scale of 1 to 10. Since I dun like my food to be too hot thus I ordered the Pork Cutlet Curry Rice base level 1 for a milder taste. The Pork was deep fried to perfecton and the rice was divided equally with the curry. Overall I recommend going there to try out at least once. However I wish the pork cutlet will be bigger because by the time I finish eating the pork cutlet there are still plenty of rice left behind.

Domino's Pizza review OK Nov 06, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Italian | Pasta | Halal

Don't know how these guys are trained, but their new classic crust always comes out soggy, like they rushed the cooking just to get all the orders filled. Nothing worse than a soggy pizza, various times. Dangerous as meats may not be cooked too. I don't risk it anymore, I just order thins instead. Also, when ordering a custom pizza I request double of a topping but they rarely if ever honour that. In fact they put the same as a single serve of that topping, but charge you for the 4 custom toppings. These guys are ripping off consumers! Do they weight them or use volume measurements? Double means twice as much as normal, but they think we don't notice when it turns out a single serving.
