Aside from the adorable-looking bun design, the Bear Paw Burgers is pretty much a miss. This new food snack originates from Taiwan's Fengjia Night Market. The trademark here is the iconic bear paw print on the burger bun.

Tried the Oishi Fish Fillet with yam-flavored bun and Thai Chilli sauce while my friend had it with the curry-flavored bun and honey mustard sauce. Along with the burger, a set meal comes with fries (or cheese fries with an additional of $1) plus a drink (soy milk or canned drinks). Our meal of two set meals then added up to $19.80.

Though it is reasonably priced I find the burger less than satisfactory. The yam bun tasted plain with no trace of yam flavour except that it is purple-coloured. But the other had indeed a tinge of curry flavour. The Fish fillet was plain ordinary. Overall, besides the cute print and shape of the burger, there was nothing much to it. The Cheese fries was alright with ample cheese dressing drizzled on thick-cut fries.

I appreciate that the place is outdoor with alfresco dining area. It was breezy outside then and provided us a conducive place to eat and chit-chat. Food is far from fantastic but I think it is worth the try once and to get some snapshots of the Bear Paw Bun lol

Average Beef Noodles OK Dec 27, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Taiwanese | Noodles

A new venture under the Paradise group located at Vivo City. This eatery serves specifically Beef Noodles with some side dishes to complement along.

 

 
Ordered the Braised Beef Briskets Noodle ($11.90). There is a choice of either thin or broad noodles. The broad-shaped one was a bit too thick for my liking. Soup is free of MSG as claimed. But it tasted pretty bland actually. Portion of Beef was quite generous and was braised long enough thus was really tender.

Tried the side dish of Chilled Preserved Tomatoes ($2.90). The cherry tomatoes are soaked in white vinegar along with sour plum. It tasted quite refreshing and appetizing. The other side dishes such as the Chilled Tofu seems promising too.

A Pasta House, spoilt for choices OK Dec 27, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Italian | Middle Eastern/Mediterranean | Pasta

The restaurant serves mostly pasta with all kinda of varieties, ranging from Tagliatelle, Risotto to Gnocchi. The price is generally affordable, being located in central area. A pleasant atmosphere with nice lightings and wooden furniture.

Ordered one of the signatures, Truffle Carbonara Pasta. Truffle taste was strong enough with plenty of bacon bits on top. Carbonara sauce was not too creamy. There is even a stronger Truffle version, Overloaded Truffle Carbonara for the ultimate truffle lovers I guess lol

Had the Truffle fries ($6.90) too, Truffle taste was strong too withe shaved Truffles on top but I find the fries too thin. I would have preferred thicker fries instead. Ordered other pasta but all were just ordinary, nothing fantastic. The Wild Mushroom Risotto, Scallop and Crab ($17.50) as well as the Meatball Garganelli ($15.50) were not impressive at all, should just give them a miss. The meatballs in Meatball Garganelli were bland tasteless except for the Pomodoro sauce of the pasta. The Risotto was alright but tasted quite mild generally.

Overall, the place is a good choice to savor all types of pasta especially those with truffle. Some items could be quite disappointing, perhaps best to just go for the recommended items only.

A new venture under Cedele, with interesting varieties at a more atas price though ><

I was initially wary to go and try considering the mixed positive and negative reviews. Therefore when there was a 1-1 promotion for some of the mains, I decided to give it a try then.

I have all along been a frequent customer of Cedele as I feel that the ingredients are fresh and the food choices are generally healthy and taste good too.

Ordered the Duck Berry Waffle and Aglio Olio Pasta. The waffle was not hot enough when it was served and thus turned cold almost instantly after I had the salad which came along with the main. The duck was tender surely and I enjoyed having it with the Berry sauce but it was altogether a very small portion minus the bones. I wonder if it would be the same during the non-promotional period. I would rate this as just acceptable rather than being the Chef's recommendation item. The pasta was alright, done al-dente and the fish was fresh and went well with the herbs sauce on top of it. But the sauce was scarce and so it was too dry halfway through eating it.

The burger, on the other hand, looked unappetizing and was below expectations. The patty was dry but at least it came with a side sauce to complement it. The chicken wrap had tender meat slices mixed with vegetables but was nothing fantastic.

Overall food quality was average but definitely not value-for-money if it were not for the promotion. Service here was terrible as we had to try so hard for a long while to catch the waiters' attention though there were only several customers. They were all mostly talking to each other with their backs facing the customers. Besides that, the service attitude was less than satisfactory, adding on to the unpleasantness of the overall dining experience. I would not be back to the restaurant again in the future. Quite a disappointing venture of Cedele.

Quality's there but Too Pricey >< OK Dec 17, 2013

It was a Sunday late morning but the place was considerably empty. It would be a good place for brunch during weekends as it would be packed at most brunch places. It was not hot that day so it was great to be seated at the airy alfresco area.

 
Food quality was good however the pinch is its above-average-pricing indeed! mad

Tried their Eggs Benedict, one was the Streaky Bacon Savoury Pancake ($23) while the other was the Smoked Salmon ($24). I think the former was preferred, the egg was done just the right way as it should be and tasted great along with the savoury pancakes. However, the latter version was just run-of-the-mill. Looking at the size of it, it was not meant to be filling surely. The only commendable aspects were that luckily the egg was done right while the smoked Salmon was fresh enough.

Tried the Chicken Roulade ($28), meat was tender enough and the gravy sauce tasted flavourful enough. Had the Pizza Rocket ($28) too, the Parma Ham was fresh but the pizza crust was too hard. Can pretty much give it a miss sad

Overall, food quality was average but at a steep price. But the quiet ambience was the only plus point.
