I paid my visit to this hotel restaurant for lunch buffet during my company training on weekday. The place is located at the lobby of hotel. It offered Asian style buffet which mostly local food. 

It was a standard buffet meal but they do offer a live station for satay outside the hotel. You can try the nyonya kueh and kueh pie tie as well. They offer a good salad selection too.

The food I tried is chicken pie which was generous in filling and quite tasty. Their salad selection taste were good also. I love their ondeh-ondeh as the gula melaka flowing in the filling was just perfect for me. The rich chocolate tart was really rich in chocolate which is a little too sweet for me.
 
Recommended Dish(es):  Kueh pie tie

Aston is my regular western restaurant if I want to have western cuisine but don't want to splurge too much. It always has a long queue but you may get seat real fast.

They offer good range of main course from beef, fish, chicken, spaghetti, lamb. The main course except spaghetti come with two side dishes which separately hot and cold.

I had tried their grilled dory fish with herb set with two side dishes. It was my favorite among all in the menu. The sauce is just well matched with the fish.

The another set I tried was teriyaki grilled chicken chop which was also good in taste.

I like their macaroni and cheese and corn and house vegetable. 

They served food very fast even the place was crowded. It's like a fast good chain restaurant.

Credit card promotion 1 for 1 OK Feb 10, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Fusion | Café | Hotel | Kids-Friendly

This hotel restaurant offered credit card promotion 1 for 1 during certain period. It's worth a try if for promotion but not worth for the usual prices.

I went for dinner on a weekday night. The food they offered are standard but not much and limited variety..

The dessert spread is quite good in hotel standard. Taste wise, the chocolate cake was decent and others was just passable.

Awesome and healthy soup OK Feb 10, 2014

Categories : Fusion | Restaurant | Chinese Soup

This branch is different with other branch as it offer noodles and burgers. I like to visit this place as it offer more food choices. They stated the calories in each soup type for weight management conscious. 

Previously, they have different ordering counter and you might confuse on the first visit.

Currently they reconstructed their ordering system which everyone can place their order in the cashier and just seat to wait for the order. It made the way easier and convenient.

The mushroom soup was generous in ingredients as you can have many kind of mushroom in bites. The tuna salad and ham sandwich came with the super value set order. The salad was generous in ingredients too.

Roasted pumpkin soup has the lowest calories content. I love this soup the most as I love pumpkin all the way. With almond flake added in, the flavor is better with chunky bites in between.
tom yum noodle

The Tom yum noodle is the recommendation dish in the menu. The soup was ok and this set came only with prawn which I think the price is not worthy as this is the most expensive in the menu.
khao soi

khao soi

 
Khao soi is a famous and authentic noodle of Chiangmai Thailand. I was craving for thai food after coming back from Thailand so I order this which came with a big chicken drumstick. The taste is quite different from the one I ate in Chiangmai but it enough to satisfy my craving.
korean ramen

The korean ramen was passable.

Recommendation: pumpkin soup, chef monthly special

Taiwanese delights OK Feb 07, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Noodles

I paid my visit during a weekend lunch at jurong point branch. It is a Taiwanese style restaurant. The place was fully crowded and the opening dining place might make you feel uncomfortable as the people passing by might look at you eating.

The food was quite ordinary and standard. The service was ok. But their drinks were good and they offered good range of choices which I was impressed.
