Hot plate OK Apr 05, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Restaurant | Steaks and Grills | Kids-Friendly

Was brought here by a friend who said their hot plate dishes were quite good. As the portions looked quite big, didn't quite have a chance to try the other dishes

 
Decided to pamper myself and eat lobster as I normally don't get the chance. I'm not sure how they did it, probably because the lobster had been frozen, the meat was really difficult to take out from the shell and different from the fresh Maine lobsters I had before. It was relatively chewy and I think I sort of gave up on peeling the meat out after a while.

The steak pieces had some tendon on the side and the meat kept on getting stuck in my mouth. I'm usually ok and understanding with different grades of beef, but in the end, I was having trouble cutting and chewing.

According to my friend who introduced the place, it's the first place this happened. So I'm going to give this place the benefit of the doubt in which that day their quality was not up to the standards they are normally at.

 
Friend's dish came with the sausage.

Momo and Mutton Curry Smile Apr 05, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Indian | Restaurant | Kids-Friendly

One of the most delicious and affordable Indian meals I had in Singapore.
Can't wait to go back to get another dose of their Indian food.

Their service was good and unlike places that may detest you for ordering so little, they were quite gracious. However, be prepared for a long waiting time--but the wait is worth it!

 
Papadum was served with their 3 sauce dishes. The mint is perfect with the spices in the papadum

 

Momos are Nepalese style steamed dumplings that may be similar to what we our steamed pork buns in the chinese context--'xiao long bao'. The skin in momos are thicker thought. There was a choice of having the buns come steamed/fried or chicken/vegetarian. Great choice for vegetarians.

 
My favorite dish to order at an Indian Restaurant is their Spinach and Mutton combo. The meat pieces were just the right size and relatively tender. None of the meat remnants stuck in your teeth nonsense.

 
The garlic naan was served hot but it did get cool rather quickly. Probably due to how it's served. I think it was a little tad burnt for my taste in some of the pieces though.

For two people, the meal was surprisingly very stuffing and full. I think the trick to ordering at Indian restaurants is to order less than the # of people present. Say, you have 4 people, order 3 main courses instead of 4. Also, go for different sauces and ways of cooking so you can have variety throughout the meal.

Highly recommend this place if you have an Indian food craving. Enjoy!

Buffet with the Family OK Apr 05, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Multi-Cuisine | Hotel | Buffet

 
Sashimi and oysters are given via request. There's no sign out front to indicate what's available. You pretty much have to look at what the person is ordering in front or ask the chef on hand. The slices were decent, but I wouldn't say fantastic

The concept here is different from a lot of buffets I've been to. Usually individual stations consists of roasted meats, but there were quite a few individual stations where you had to line up, order, and wait. If it's not convenient for you to walk and stand around, you'd be missing out on some of the food.

 
The pepper crayfish may look very salty in the picture but I'd say it's decently flavorful. The black pepper wasn't too overpowering, however, if you're wearing light colored clothes, you might be concerned that the sauce may flip up and stain your clothes.

The roast beef was very nice and the chef was very dangerous. Those whom like their steak really well done might have to skip the station

 
The drunken prawns must be quite popular because by the time I got there, there were only a few prawns left swimming in the pool. I guess it's nice to know that your prawns were alive before they were cooked, but you might want to turn away if you don't want to see the shrimp struggling. The soup it was served in had a herbal smell and everyone around me wanted a sip of it.

 
They had several choices of naan here. Between the garlic and the cheese naan, I'd say the cheese naan was pretty nicely done. They also have an assortment of dips you can choose--not a disappointing Naan & Curry station. Also, they had papadum!

 
The highlight of the dessert platter was macaroons. Quite nicely done. Not too sweet, and the flavors were there.

 
I'm not a fan of coconut ice cream, but the coconut and yuzu received the top votes in my party of 10.

French/Japanese Cuisine Cry Apr 05, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : French | Japanese | Fusion

From the name I thought the restaurant was French food, but upon scanning the varieties on the menu, it was clear that there was some Japanese flavor to it.

Was there on a weekday during lunch so there were lunch sets available. I believe the specials change everyday. Lunch hour was rather busy and the servers were rather flustered.

I always like to order Escargot whenever it's offered on the menu

 
Escargot Dish was served hot with the fancy shell holders

 
Close up of the escargot

The garlic that came with the escargot was rather crisp. I think I prefer escargots served and baked in the oven with butter as opposed to how it was prepared here.

 
The cheese didn't quite melt in the French Onion soup and I thought that it might have come in the puff pastry. It was rather salty, so the bread was pretty much all gone before I realized that I was on my last bite. It's a pity as i believe the bread would have been a good complement to hte squid ink pasta

 
The tomato soup was slightly disappointing. It felt like it came in a can. I guess I appreciate it when it feels like a lot of effort is put into the dish that you're consuming. At least it wasn't Cream of Tomato (powder)

I think I was more let down by the main courses

 
If I don't recall correctly, the Hamburger Steak was one of their specialty/highlights. The meat was composed of minced beef and I guess I was let down by the quality of the meat and presentation of the dish.

 
The Japanese hardly gets the squid ink wrong as they even sell squid ink pasta in their supermarkets. Mushrooms were a nice addition to the dish, but I felt like there was very little squid pieces.

The fruit tarts look amazing and I saw a lot of people ordering it.
If I go back, I believe that would be on my to order list and I'd probably go there for tea.

Spiked Milkshakes & Buffalo Wings Smile Apr 05, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : American | Bars/Lounges | Restaurant | Burgers and Sandwiches


Hidden around the corner of Perak Road near Little India, is this Diner cafe that I thought I'd never find in Singapore.

 
The deco may be similar to Billy Bomber's, but the feel of the place is quite different. The deco and music made it more authentic. Probably the closest feel that I've got that's similar to Diner's in the US or what we see in the movies.

 
Friend ordered the Asahi beer.

 
The waitress asked if we wanted Chili sauce in addition to the Buffalo wings, but they were made on the spot so they were fresh and hot. They also didn't skimp on the Tabasco sauce so the Chili sauce was unnecessary. They were missing a blue cheese dip but I'd say that it's a pretty mean and savory Buffalo wing dish.

 
Strawberry Spiked Milkshake was very good. The alcohol was there without being it too strong. The Ice cream was not too sweet where you'd get sick of it (unlike McDonalds Milkshake), or perhaps the Kahlua was a good balance to the Strawberry.

What I'd come back for would be their spiked milkshakes and Buffalo Wings. Please come support this diner as I believe it serves great good, doesn't rush the customers and you can just chill with your friends. There weren't any live bands playing when we were there but it looks like certain nights they may have live performances.
