Poteato OK Nov 29, 2014

Categories : Café | Brunch

To order, just proceed to the counter. All prices are inclusive of GST & service charge. I cant remember when's the last time that I just need to pay what I see in the menu. So, it felt real good, not having the need to do mental calculation of the final bill. I hate surprises when it comes to making payments!

Water (both hot & cold) was also placed at the side, for self serving. Fuss free! But we still ordered drinks anyway. =p

 
Iced Peach Lychee - $5.60

Hot Honey Lemon Tea - $4

I love my peach lychee but husband's lemon tea tasted a bit weird. Finally, I made a better choice than hubby! Woo hoo!

 
Sweet Potato Fries - $6.20

The sweet potato fries was served in a brown paper bag, cute & creative! It gave the idea of overflowing fries. Haha

But it was not just cute, but tasted real good too! A M-U-S-T order, because it was so addictive. Sweet and crispy, especially when it served hot! Dun wait for it to turn cold lah, a hot /warm item is of course best eaten when at its right temperature.

 
Louisiana Pork Ribs - $18

Another yummy item on the menu! The pork ribs was thick and juicy , finger-licking good! And it came with my new found love - garlic curry sauce and my all time favourite, potato wedges. I was a happy girl. ^_____^

Bear Bites OK Nov 29, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Taiwanese | Chinese | Café | Stall / Kiosk | Burgers and Sandwiches

Cute bear paw bun, wow! How to resist?

I saw this being advertised on the TV and decided to check this out with a friend. According to the TV program, Bear Bites originated from Taiwan, even the buns are made in Taiwan and air-flown to Singapore, seems authentic enuff! *Beaming with anticipation*

 
The place is not big and is outdoor (opposite Toast Box), so can you imagine dining under the hot sun in the afternoon. We were practically trying to finish the food in lightning speed! I guess it's a better choice to tabao/pack away if you are coming here for lunch. Anyway, here probably can only accommodate about 10plus people, not big in the first place.

 
We ordered the chicken set which is $7.80 that comes along fries and bottled polka drinks. Pay an additional $1 for cheese fries. Sigh, I wish they have more "Taiwanese" drinks like bubble teas or Aiyu. Bottled polka is such a spoiler! >.<

 
Frankly, I was really disappointed with the food. Other than its cute appearance which will look good in pictures, I cant really say what's good. I ordered the brown sugar bun which tasted like normal bun, the chicken was not crispy and the fries was nothing close to mention.

Before coming here, I have considered to order both the savory bun and the sweet bun (flavoured bun with gelato), and even thought of packing away some for my hubby and friend. However, since the chicken didn't turned out crispy when I was dining there, I reckoned that it would be worse if I packed away.

Long story cut short, food was really normal, but considering the price, I guess it's still worth a try. Just dun go there with high expectation like me. Sobzzz..

Restaurant Week: Fordham & Grand Smile Nov 29, 2014

Salmon Tartar

Appetizer was beautiful. The salmon was firm and plentiful. It was almost as good as a main course itself.

 
Green Pea Risotto

Even though it says green pea risotto, it didn't taste anything like green pea although the idea of having green coloured rice was rather refreshing. The zucchini was fried crispy with slight tinge of natural sweetness from the vegetable. Surprisingly, I was pretty satisfied with my main course, even with no meat in sight Something different from my usual fare, and likely to be more healthy! Keke

 
French Toast with Sabayon & Vanilla Icecream

We really loved the dessert, in fact, my favourite dish among the 3! The bitter taste of the rum sabayon (the yellow creamy sauce) was complemented by the sweetness of the french toast & vanilla icecream. A very flavorful combination with added twist of the popcorn bits. We finished it anyway even though we just had a staple food (risotto)!

Overall, we enjoyed our dinner here and love to re-visit for the lobster linguini! ^_^

Pique Nique OK Nov 29, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Desserts and Cakes | Burgers and Sandwiches

A pretty cafe that I visited quite a while ago with my friend. Couldn't say much about the food, which was decent but not impressive.

 
Classic Benedict - $12

My friend's order. To begin with, I'm not a fan of hollandaise sauce and egg benedict. Tried a mouthful to know the taste..... mmmm, mediocre. Let's move on.

 
Shinjuku Incident - $11.50

Innovative name but tasted just like a normal burger although the egg yolk looked so tempting. Must be my 'super' photography skills. Keke

 
Tokyo Connection - $9.50

In layman terms, chicken meat burger. This tasted the best out of the 3 savory dishes.

A pity that we did not have a chance to try the desserts, which Pique Nique is more known of. Oh well, it's just like going to MacDonalds and order milk tea which is not the signature dish. I think I should re-visit Pique Nique to try their desserts which are so eye-feasting before I can give them a fair critic.

Krispy Kreme OK Nov 29, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Bakery

I got myself a half dozen, which cost close to $18. Was a bit taken back by the hefty price tag, it was almost $3 each. I thought it would be cheaper to buy half dozen, but no, still charge individually. Therefore, if you are like me, just buy 1 to try bah..

 

 
Flavors that I got: Peanut Butter, Cookie Crunch, Red Velvet, Cookies & Creme, Chocolate Dream Cake, Almond All Over

Critics for the donuts? Dun scold me, but they were really just donuts. The sweetness I think still within my threshold, which is probably considered high for most people. Great variety of topping, but can be found in other donut joints. Slightly more crispy, but not impressive. Was expecting more lor.. >.<
