We did a drive-by pick up and ordered:
Four Cheese Pizza - hubby ordered this and I tried a couple of bites. I'm really not that impressed with pizza taste actually. The pizza come with Chilli Paste, not chili flakes. Interesting... Hubby commented it's actually nicer with the Chilli paste. That's not saying very much for the taste of the pizza. Crust is not bad, pretty thin and crusty.
Spaghetti Bolognese - daughter liked it enough but I tried a mouthful and it was only so-so. Not a dish to go there for.
Chicken Cream Pasta - I actually forgot the actual name on the menu but the taste is unforgettable!! To me, the pizza and spag bolognese are only so-so in truth and this pasta dish with chicken chunks really made the entire trip to hunt down PS. Cafe Petit.
For the records, we are SO not going back any time soon.

Cool Place but small portions OK Jun 29, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Latin American/South American | Mexican


Was on a hunt for good Mexican good and suggestion for Lucha Loco popped up. So hub and I decided to give it a try. 
 
The deco of the place is really nice, very hip and trendy. Now to the food...

Elote - many reviews have said that there is no regret in ordering the corn cob so we ordered it in good faith. While I would not say it's awful, I didn't think it's worth the $8 for it. 

Crab Tostaditos - it's really nice, also very small a plate of it. It's a starter so I guess I shouldn't be expecting it to be filling. 

Pork Belly Taco - this is definitely a gourmet version. Think 2 pieces of braised pork belly with some Vege garnish held together by soft taco. Nice but again, small. 

Chicken Quesadilla - tasty, just wish there's more of it. 

Pastel de Elote Azul - a crumbly dessert made of corn. Not really sweet and I'm not sure if it's meant to be dry but ours was. So I'm not impressed. 

I would say that as a hangout place, it's awesome. But I'm a foodie so this place doesn't fulfill me enough. Oh well...

Vegetarian Lunch Smile Jun 15, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Indian | Vegetarian

Starters:
1) Papri Chaat - this is a cold dish with circular biscuit-like bits. Slightly sourish and very tasty.
2) Samosa Chaat - another not-so cold fish with fried samosa bits and chick peas. Also sourish and very tasty too
Mains:
3) Aloo Gobi - my all time favourite! They do theirs well here.
4) Spinach with Cottage Cheese - smooth blend of spinach with chunks of cottage cheese. Good flavour too!
5) Mushroom Curry (I forgot the name - this is very awesome! I couldn't stop eating it!!!
We ordered Naans to go with the curries and their Naans are soft and fluffy. The butter and garlic ones are even more wonderful with the extra flavours on the top! Good!!!
It's not cheap but a good place to bring vegetarians.

Awesome Zichar Smile Jun 15, 2014

Stumbled to this area and read that the reviews of this Zichar is pretty good. Tried a few dishes here and agreed with the good reviews:
1) Fish Head Steamboat - something about soup cooked over high heat (read wok-Hei) just rocks my world. The fish chunks are generous in amount and the flavour is just awesome. Plus the soup comes with free refill, that totally wins Liao!
2) Salted Egg Squid - deep fried sotong rings with salted egg batter. Win already. Mum complained cannot see the sotong but I just like the batter. Haha
3) Herbal Wrapped-Chicken - nice and tender. Hubby likes the sauce with accompanied with rice.
I find the rest of their dishes also very good, like their Broccoli with Garlic and Chye Boh Omelette. We are so in love with this Zichar place now.

Hidden Find Smile Jun 15, 2014

Categories : American | Bars/Lounges | Café | Burgers and Sandwiches | Brunch

Came here with parents and small kids in tow so I reserved a table beforehand to avoid disappointment.
For starters, we ordered the Jalapeno Mac & Cheese to share. You can definitely taste the spice of the mac & cheese and it's pretty good. Hubby preferred if they had used Cheddar instead.
For the mains, we ordered:
Southern Fried Chicken - I must say that the seasoning can be pretty spicy for the kids (mine complained a bit) but for us hardy adults, no problem. The skin is fried till crispy and the meat is still quite juicy. It's served with their homemade mash, which is very good, and a side of corn and salad. The dressing of the corn and salad doesn't rock my boat because I don't fancy sour stuff much and I assume others may like that.
BBQ Chicken - Generous half spring chicken that is marinated with their BBQ sauce. No bad tasting and meat is juicy too. Served with shoe-string fries and corn and salad.
Baby Back Ribs - the same BBQ sauce is used to season the ribs. It's nice and meat falls off the bone when eaten. It's good, better than some more established makan places.
Teddy's 100% US Beef Burger - a tall burger with their homemade pattie and bacon strips as the main stars. It's pretty good.
Penne Bolognese - daughter wanted pasta and we tried their bolognese which was very good. Again, you can tell they made their own sauce and that's quite a bit of pride there.
Milkshake Salted Caramel - It's not super sweet so that's great! I can't really taste the salted caramel so that's a small shame.
I like how they attempt to make their food fresh by really making the marinade and sauce from scratch. We'll would be back again to check out the rest of their menu and drink a little this time.
