Our group of 8 decided to try dinner at this River View restaurant, which is known for their herbal soups.

What we ordered -

Four treasures soup (individual portions at $12 each). Good.Prawns with salted egg. Tasty.Claypot Beancurd with Vegetables. Average.Stir-fried Long Beans. Good.Roasted Chicken with Fruit Cocktail. Interesting presentation, however chicken was a tad salty for my liking.Stir-fried Beef with Bok Choy. Beef slices were tender and nicely cooked.For desserts, we had Aloe Vera with Fruit Cocktail, and Red Bean Souffle. Both were good.Place was not full for a weekend. Overall average, and dishes were slightly pricey, but I can recommend having the soups which were tasty.

This hole in the wall is up in Novena Medical Building. It is a discreet cafe which you would not otherwise know of unless you explore the Medical Building linked to Novena Square 2.

We decided to head there for Brunch on a weekday and it was less crowded than on weekends.

Each of us had a serving of the Grande Breakfast ($14), which consisted of salad, bacon, eggs (scrambled, poached or omelette), mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, and two slices of buttered sour dough bread.Very tasty.

Service was good, and I loved the rustic ambience and plants, which reminded me a bit of PS Cafe.

Will be back to try other menu items!

This is one of my favourite Chinese restaurants for casual dining.
