Poteato had fast became my favourite cafe in the Tiong Bahru neighbourhood and I have brought several friends on different occasions to try the food there, after they saw the mouth-watering food that I posted online! I have since tried their lunch, brunch, tea and dinner menu.
Eating the Buffalo Wings ($10.20) was a hot and fiery experience! The wings are marinated in a hot sauce and you can feel the heat and spice with every bite, especially the skin, the meat inside is also spicy but to a lesser extent. My friend and I dont usually take very spicy stuff, and this level was too much for us, so we had to gulp iced water almost with every bite, but that said, we enjoyed it very much! It is hot and spicy, but it was very Shiok!! Because of the thick and rich sauce on the wings, eating the buffalo wings was a messy affair, we had to go wash our hands immediately after hahaha!
We also had the Classic Chicken Wings ($9.20). The moment it arrived on our table, we could smell the aroma of the chicken, and of course it was a great choice, very crispy, tender and delicious!
We were on a snack attack! Been long wanting to try the Sweet Potato Fries ($6.20), and we finally got the chance since we are in the mood for their small bites! It is indeed as good as we had heard on online reviews. The goodness of real sweet potato is evident with every bite, and it comes with a very taste-bud pleasing cheese sauce and a tangy tomato salsa sauce, though the sweet potato fries is good enough to eat on its own. It is worth mentioning that they are not salty like most fries are.
And, I finally got to try the Poteato Chips ($5.20). Just couldn't resist the thin and crispy hand sliced chips. I love it that they are so thin, it makes it all the more crispy and great to munch! I like my chips with the cheese sauce, it makes a perfect snack! The fries and chips comes with the same two sauces as the fries and a small serving of salad.
This is also the first time I am trying their spaghetti. I chose the Cream Sauce Spaghetti ($12). It is rich and creamy with lots of bacon bits, it is not exactly the best spaghetti around, but it is a decent and tasty one. Portion is just right. This is only available on the dinner menu.
Food and drinks are great at Poteato, at least they are to me. I particularly like the Iced Teas in Poteato, and their small bites snacks!
