Dinner @ MOF Smile Nov 12, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Japanese | Sushi/Sashimi

One rainy evening after school, my friend suggested to visit MOF since we were going to Lot 1 for dinner for she had a good dining experience there and wished to visit it again. lol
I agreed since I'd been seeing lots of photos and raves about the desserts at MOF.

When we were seated down, the first menu I browsed was the dessert menu. I LOVE DESSERTS! <3 I felt I was in matcha heaven after looking through all the items. Every single dessert was my favourite - matcha, red bean, ice-cream - OMG. I was squeaking with joy as I flipped through the menu ^^
In the end, I settled with unsweetened green tea latte and matcha zen which cost $3.30 and $6.00 respectively.

After browsing with the desserts menu, I flipped through the main course menu. I think that was the first thickest menu I have ever seen out of the many dining experiences. The menu was thick and heavy with a wide array of food choices ranging from sashimi, sushi, hotpot, bibimbap, hot stone, curry rice, ramen, pasta etc etc.
I was literally spoilt for choices, so many to choose from! My friend and I took a while to choose our main because there are just too many choices. I settled with a oyako bento which was chicken, egg,onions and mushroom while my friend settled for udon set meal which cost $9.80 and $16.80 respectively.

Oyako bento: I was disappointed with the bento because I thought it was lacking some flavour and "kick" to make the meal feel much more complete and yummy.

Udon set meal: I aren't a fan of udon because of the thickness of the noodles which makes it very chewy if the udon wasn't done well. Surprising, I like the udon. The soup was flavoursome and not too salty and udon was cook properly. It didn't had the unwanted chewy or toughness to it smile The udon came with shitake tempura which was yummy as well. Even though it is fried, I can still taste the moistness and the flavour in the mushroom not just plain tempura flour that mask everything. No wonder my friend like the udon set meal, the reason is simple. Simple and yummy good food. lol

Matcha zen: I have a weakness for desserts. Red bean and green tea is one of the best combination in the world. Bitterness of the green tea gelato matched well with the sweetness of the red bean. The mochi gave the dessert more mouth-feel. A good combination. Thumbs up! (Y) I ordered a mini size for I knew I wasn't able to finish the usual portion. But it seems like the price is still the same as the normal portion...

Soft serve cream: My friend isn't a fan of ice-cream but she loves the ice-cream there. It was very milky and creamy, very different from the usual ice-cream sold in other places. No wonder she loves it. HAHA lol

Green tea latte: A perfect cup of original green tea drink without any sugar. For the hard-core green tea fan smile If you love your drink sweet, it is recommended to order the sweetened one. For it tasted bitter without sugar.

Overall, I love the desserts at MOF. I will probably visit the place again and try out some other mains and of course, desserts ;)

Total bill came up to $45.30 for 2 pax.

Decided to end my Friday by having a good dinner with my friend at Jcube.
We walked around aimlessly and can't make up our mind. But in the end we decided to give Capricciosa a try since neither of us have eaten the food there.
After visiting the restaurant, I only have 1 word to describe how I felt, which is DISAPPOINTMENT.
I was even a little angry because considering the price I paid I think I should deserve better food. huffy
The last time I had fettuccine was quite some time ago and I wanted to eat it again for quite sometime, naturally I chose Fettuccine with eggplant and streaky beef in tomato base. The fettuccine was under cooked and chewy. It didn't has the expected smooth mouth-feel when I slurped it. sad
The streaky beef didn't tasted like beef at all, when I looked at it, I thought it was bacon and again it was chewy too. Chewy to the extent that I had to spit out because I couldn't break down the meat.
I was satisfied with the eggplant though. Under cooked eggplant can be really disgusting and difficult to swallow.
I am not going to return back to Capricciosa even though I like the service there. The staffs were quite friendly.

Eggplant and streak beef fettuccine - $15.90

The bill came up to $18.80 per pax after splitting the bill with my friend.

Lunch at Ayam Penyet Ria  Smile Sep 08, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Indonesian

I had lunch at Ayam Penyet Ria for the first time and it was really a yummy and worthwhile lunch smile We went in at 11am plus to avoid the lunch crowd and at 12 plus during the lunch hour, the small restaurant was close to full house. This says something about the food at Ayam Penyet Ria. chopstick

I chose to eat Lele penyet which is smashed catfish while my friend had ayam penyet, smashed chicken rice both meals cost $6.90. Lele penyet was really palatable and yummy. The skin of the fish was very crispy and not too oily while the meat is tender and moist. The crisps atop the fish made the rice tasted much more flavoursome when eaten together with the chilli.
The sambal chilli was really spicy, if you're not a fan of chilli please eat it at a small amount. Other than the fish, the meal also had fried beancurd and fried tempah. The fried beancurd was normal, nothing much to rave about and I prefer tempah to be stir fried instead of deep-fried.

We ordered a rose soda, $2.40, as well, it tasted like bandung and was not too sweet. After a spicy meal, a cold drink really does the trick to cool down my burning mouth. shocked

The food was very yummy and was filling too. I will definitely make another trip to ayam penyet ria to eat the food again smile

All-day-breakfast @ Wild Honey  Smile Sep 03, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Western Variety | Café | Desserts and Cakes | Brunch

Wild Honey is renowned in Singapore for serving all day breakfast from different countries and was also featured in several magazines. I have been waiting for a chance to try out their food and the chance came when my friends and I made an impromptu decision to go Wild Honey.

It was a Monday afternoon and there was no queue and it was quite empty. The menu was quite extensive and we took a while to decide what we want to eat. Being a person who hates egg yolk :/, I didn't have many choices since I can't eat Eggs Benedicts or dishes with poached eggs.
I wanted to try I love New York -I was attracted to the bagel- but it was unavailable sad So I chose Basque in the end.

Basque consisted of toasted brioche, scrambled eggs with red and yellow peppers, onions and Spanish Serrano ham.
I LOVE IT. The scrambled eggs and pepper complemented each other well. I do not really like pepper because I think they have a weird and smell and taste. However, the peppers in this dish was different. It was sweet and juicy and when eaten together with the eggs and spammed with lots of black pepper. BANG! lol YUMMY! The ham was tasty too however do take note to eat the ham together with the egg and brioche. Otherwise, it is quite salty on its own.

I will definitely visit Wild Honey again, perhaps once in half a year. The prices were quite steep for a meal. My meal cost $25.90 after GST and service charge. :<

Affordable and yummy meal  Smile Aug 29, 2012

Categories : Steaks and Grills

Astons has been quite popular in Singapore and they are well known for their food. Despite being so popular this was my first time visiting it. It wasn't a disappointment at all, all those hearsay are not hearsay but real facts.
The menu had a array of different types of meat ranging from chicken to beef and including spaghetti. Spaghetti comes with soup while meat meal comes with 2 sides which can be chosen from the menu. The side dishes aren't just some boring french fries and coleslaw. They have a variety of side dishes such as garden salad, baked potato, pasta salad etc etc. I was spoilt for choice when I had to choose the side dishes. I decided to settle for onion rings and potato salad with grilled fish with herb as my main.

The grilled fish was cooked to perfection. It was crispy at the side of the fish and the fish was fresh and succulent. Together with the herb sauce it was the best combination ever! The best thing was that the sauce wasn't very salty as oppose to the very salty sauces I had tried before. The price was quite affordable as well $8.50 for a satisfying and yummy meal. chopstick

Astons really lived up to its name, I will definitely visit Astons again after my first mouth watering experience with Astons smile
