Happy Meal with Good Food Smile Dec 06, 2013

There are plenty of TCC branches around island-wide indeed. Easily accessible and I would say their food has never failed to fulfill my expectations so far. Perhaps the only limiting factor could be their slightly steep pricing mad

Starting off with my starter firstly, I like their Kabocha Harvest Salad though I don't really take fried food often. But I like how the sweet breaded pumpkin patties are mixed in the tangy kumquat dressing. The breaded part was not too thick like some other croquettes with overwhelmingly thick breaded crumbs externally with little filling. I like pumpkin so this was simply appetizing already as my starter! ^^

Now, to my mains smile Had the Mentaiko Spaghetti w/ Salmon Tataki and Golden Enchilada Enchantment. The pasta was one of the chef's recommendations and it was a great choice indeed. The mentaiko gravy was not too creamy and the tender slices of salmon were not overly cooked and was just splendid to be accompanied with a perfect sunny side up on top ^^ For vegetarians, the latter could be quite a good choice but not really healthy haha.. But the golden-fried tortilla was quite crunchy, stuffed with wild mushrooms, spicy spinach and tofu and cheese. A good combination overall and it was not too oily. But of course the pasta beats it all for a meat-lover.

Now desserts haha, quite a complete meal huh? tongue
I simply love Affogato so I tried the two different renditions. The chocolate Affogato was perfect with its combination of espresso and chocolate ice cream but sadly being immersed with the espresso, my ice cream melted away fast enough>< As for the Bailey's Alluregatto, it would be perfect if you are finding for liquer and coffee at the same time lol Coffee jelly, ice cream and biscotti, heightened with Bailey’s Irish Cream; what's more you can ask haha? But sadly, again it melted too fast too.

No idea why I would still have some room for more desserts. Haha as if not sinful enough, I had the Pinana Landing, which was a pineapple tart with oozing vanilla custard topped with fresh banana. But the ice cream was forgettable, after being overdosed from the Affogato LOL.

Perfect hang out place, good food and great ambience facing the Sentosa! Just the place for a wholesome dinner! ^^

Second Visit ^^ Smile Nov 30, 2013

It is my second visit to Poulet again haha lol

Well, tried their another version of Poulet Roti whereby the sauce is replaced with Cranberry sauce and Mustard. The Cranberry sauce itself alone was pretty flavourful, not too sweet and a tingy sourish. But sadly, I think the original sauce still beats this new version. Tried something new as appetizer and I totally love this one. The combination of feta cheese, tomatoes and sultanas totally beats me. I kept popping in the tomatoes one after another. It was really good and it was a bonus that it was served chilled. ahhh yum yummzzz ^^

Expensive version of CBTL OK Nov 30, 2013

Categories : American | Café | Halal | Coffee

Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf's more atas restaurant, first started in MBS, is opening more and more branches in the city center. Coffee is as good as normal CBTL. Menu has a good number of varieties.

 
The waffle was alright, a bit too dense, not fluffy enough. Not the best waffle I have had but not too bad.

The Breakfast platter was quite a disappointment. The bacon was burnt. The tomatoes served was pathetically limited to just two small cherry-sized tomatoes. The sausages tasted bland. Not value-for-money at all, definitely a no-no.

This is my only consolation. Chicken breast was still tender enough. And well nothing goes wrong with tomatoes, making the whole pasta palatable enough! ^^

The food is overall not bad with a few misses for certain dishes.

Substandard Korean food >< Cry Nov 30, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Korean | Restaurant | Kids-Friendly

Went to this Korean place despite hearing bad comments from my friends before only because of the Groupon discount and my liking for Korean food. Thus I thought yeah why not give the place a try then mad

I think I will jump to the conclusion now that the standard here is really way below my expectations. I would never visit the place again. The only commendable point is just that the place has good ambiance at the alfresco seating area.

Had Beef Japchae ($8) and Scallion pancake ($8.50). The former was 95% glass noodles with shreds of capsicum with only a few pathetic beef shreds. The latter was worse, just pancake dough and perhaps some bacon strips could be seen.

Ordered the Army Stew ($32), Bibimbap ($14), Yuzu Chic ($20) as our mains. The stew was alright. Bibimbap was not served in a stone pot and it was cold by the time everything was mixed together. The Yuzu Chicken could not be worse as the chunks of meat were near to tasteless.

Side dishes was pathetically limited with only three sides. There were four of us and the only serving given was surprisingly small that I mistakenly assumed initially that everyone was supposed to have their own set of side dishes separately.

My conclusion, as mentioned, the place has poor standards. Seriously wonder how this place could have survived still so far till now.

This place is quite a new establishment in 313 replacing the old restaurant (it was Blue Mountain Cafe I think). There is a separate menu catered especially for desserts. Being a Matcha fan, I went in with full eagerness to try the desserts out.

Ordered a Macha Kakigori ($8) and Abekawa with Gelato ($8). The former was actually Macha-flavoured ice with Vanilla soft serve plus some side toppings. It was nothing extraordinary except for the fact the toppings included awkwardly a few wolfberry and the Chinese snow fungus. On the other hand the latter was quite a let down. The oven-baked Mochi was too hard to be chewy.

Based on this first dining experience, I think I would not come back to this place again. I might as well go St Marc since it is more reasonably-priced with good standards.
