Heard of the nice steamboat at JPot, decided to head down for dinner. JPot has quite a good variety of steamboat soup base and food items to choose from. I had the JPot superior soup, it tastes like chicken broth, quite fragrant though a little bland. For diners who prefer stronger tasting soup base, I would suggest bak kut teh, herbal or tomyum soup base. We ordered quite a number of food items, the most yummy would be the beef short rib. It's like shabu shabu kind of thinly sliced beef, very tender and doesn't take long to cook. The beef also added taste to the soup, making it even more delicious. The chicken was not bad too, quite soft and tender. We had the kurobuta pork with asparagus as well, but I feel that the pork taste was quite strong even though I cooked the pork for quite long. Didn't really like it. Overall was an okay dining experience!

After tasting the affordable brunch from Eggs & Berries for breakfast previously, I decided to bring a friend to try their dinner. However, to my disappointment, the food was not so good. We ordered the Genie omelette, and the Italia Eggs Benedict to share. The Genie omelette allowed us to choose 3 ingredients to have inside. We decided on chicken, emmentel cheese, and mushrooms. Sadly the chicken tasted kinda weird. As for the Italia Eggs Benedict Solo, we chose it as it was unique to have eggs benny with parma ham. However, to our disappointment, the parma ham was of a low-grade, and the combination was not too great. Also the hash, which I loved from my last visit, was slightly burnt and hard Guess while they are affordable, not everything is great there, and their quality of food varies from time to time.

Went there for a weekend dinner, was relatively easy to find a place. I ordered the Linguine Pesto with Chicken. The food didn't look that appetizing, but it smelt really good. There was a generous amount of chicken and tomatoes. It was not too bad, quite yummy but I felt there was a little too much pesto sauce added. However, it wasn't too oily. Overall not fantastic but not bad. I had the ice chocolate, which I didn't really like. The drink doesn't have the chocolatey taste, some chocolate sauce was added to give it the artificial taste. Not the place for chocolate drinks. The coffee was good though, especially the coffee art. It's aromatic too, and tastes good. Good chill out place for those staying in the east too!

Astons sells one of the cheaper and value for money western food. I had the chargrilled chicken with baked potato and garden veggie. The chargrilled chicken was cooked well, it smelled very good and tasted very delicious. It was tender and juicy and the cook didn't overcook it. The sauce on the chicken complements it very well, made it even yummier. I felt the baked potato was not awesome though. Although the butter which gave it a good smell, there was too much of it which made it a little oily and buttery. The garden veggie was okay too, it wasn't boiled for too long hence the carrots were still raw and hard. Good for those who prefer more natural veggies. Would choose other side dishes the next time!

I ate here in the day when it was a kopitiam, and had the famous yong tau foo and vegetarian beehoon. The yong tau foo was not bad but the tau kee was a tad bit salty. The vegetarian beehoon was nice and tasty. However, the vegetarian sides contrary to popular sentiments, I found was overly fried and very oily. The zai er was not bad but the beancurd skin with mushrooms inside was overly starchy.
