Went there for dinner earlier this month. Maybe like what the boss said, it was a weekday night, thats why it wasn't really crowded. That's not bad either! Like having the restaurant all to ourselves.
The shophouse setting and the nostalgic decorations will bring back fond memories and calm your nerves.
The service staff was fast to serve us ice water upon request and promptly recommended quite a few of their popular dishes for first timers like us. And most importantly, all of them served with big smiles like --->
To the food!
Cheese Dip Fries ($2) is a great starter while you wait for the main... The yummy cheese dip perks your appetite and prep you for more. In fact, we had a second serving cos we love the cheese dip! You can dip almost everything into the cheese and have it go along perfectly!
The Rosemary Lamb Rack ($10) was a bit difficult on under the knife, but once you have it in your mouth, it's all worth it! The lamb is tender and juicy with a very nice pinkish colour. The lil bit of lamb skin present was grilled to crisp. Some might be afraid of the lamb smell but they used rosemary to hide it very well. It not like other lamb racks that i've eaten which were more or less difficult to chew. This is tender and very easy chewing even for old ppl's dentures!
The Seafood Aglio Olio ($6.50) is another big hit. The moment it's served, you can smell a pleasant hint of garlic. The taste is indescribable. It's our favourite dish for the night. I apologise for being unable to describe its wonderful taste. You'll have to try it to know it and remember to eat it while its hot! We had second round for this too!
Overall, the food is very delicious and the service is good. It might be because it was one a quieter weekday night but their staff is friendly enough to guarantee great efforts to serve us well. I think it's rather value for money and the standard is at least on par with many other western restaurant chains like _____. (fill in the blanks!) Oh and did i mention that it's halal? Even if i already did... THE RESTAURANT IS HALAL MY DEAR MUSLIM FRIENDS! YEA!
