What if you didn't want anything fried here?

Of course there are items on the menu that aren't fried so not to fear.

Building up muscle mass with some carbo here at Monster Curry.

 
I ordered the shabu pork and omu rice. Making add-ons for sausage and cheese. And a level 5 for curry.

The shabu pork was simply done retaining its original flavours. The scrambled eggs were fluffy and moist enveloping grains of japanese short rice grains.

The sausages came in two pairs. Crunchy sausage casings and savoury pork fillings.

This was much less guilty than the fried options. smile)

FATS Smile Oct 02, 2013

$7 for some fats. A whole load of it actually.

I was just reading a feature on the roti prata, an underestimated local favourite that is widely available.

Seems that becoming more health conscious doesn't stop the occassional indulgence.

And these guys at The Prata Place advertise their pratas for being the best crispy prata in Singapore.

Did you know how?

You might reconsider your dining choice after this piece of information...

They deep fry their pratas. Oh the dough is delicious but!

Oh well. We made a choice for the chicken cheese Murtabak to share.

And another kosong (plain) for my friend.

 
This arrived cut up into small bite-sized squares which I really appreciated.

Perfect for dipping into the side of chicken curry gravy.

The prata exterior was crispy indeed and encased pieces of red stained tandoori chicken and stringy cheese.

the cafe was buzzingly busy on a Sunday afternoon and the indoor seating area was totally filled. I'd totally opt for an al fresco in this gorgeously picturesque marina.

picture this. a brilliantly blue sky forms a back drop for numerous pristine white yatches of different shapes and sizes docked at the marina reflecting off the sunlight into the distance.

pictured? perfect.

we were immediately shown to their available tables in the far end of the cafe. I liked being able to choose my tables.
and my view of course.

 
nice big fans that don't blow off your wig (!) but keeps diners cool while taking in the great outdoors.

 
the silhouette of trees of the clear blue skies as you ponder over your meal choices. almost too surreal in the usual hustle and bustle of daily life.

 
Let's indulge a little shall we? Thick cut fries served with truffle mayonnaise. $10.
There's something really attractive about truffle. Truffle in anything except in its original form. Trust me, I've had a whole truffle stuffed under my nose and what happened after was not a sight for sore eyes. This dip was delicious. The bits of truffle were visible and tasted like mushrooms. Nary enough to share. We had to ration it. There's no seconds. But there was mayonnaise and chilli sauce available. Settling for second best.

 
They serve all-day breakfast and the menu runs from 930am-5pm daily.
And Eggs Royale. $16.
Traditional English Muffins with savoury Norwegian smoked salmon slices and two gently poached eggs. Drizzled with creamy hollandaise sauce with a side of rocket. Mmm. Eggs. It's a skill to cook these easy ingredients well.
If you didn't already know, Prive runs their own bakery so these soft and fluffy English muffins are are made in house. And these muffins are what I would come all the way here for.

The staff are also quietly attentive, topping up the glasses of water and clearing plates once we were done. It was a pleasure to dine here.

Ending Sunday with a quiet stroll along keppel marina. Every Sunday should be like this. smile

Lunch was decadent.

 
crispy roast pork.
eating them in bite sized portions like this with mustard drops at the side was yums!

 
the stir fried longevity noodles with seafood was well fried with flavour without an oily aftertaste. the amount of seafood was also satisfactory.

 
and we couldn't resist the peking duck.

 
here, the staff does the carving and wrapping of these parcels for you. of course you could opt to do it yourself. but we were dining with a mummy of a crybaby. these conveniently packed parcels were a simple blessing for her.

need MEAT. Smile Sep 29, 2013

I gotta say.

 
The chilli here was addictive. And just between the three of us, we finished an entire squeeze bottle of it. oops.

 
we went for the ala carte buffet on the waitress' recommendations. At about $36 per pax, you get your pick of meats and other steamboat items on the menu.

 
i loved the cheese tofu, but that was really taking up tummy space. the crabstick was not the normal round ones, i liked these a lot better.

the meats were not very heavily marinated but they were all delicious when grilled. a little charred on the sides but juicy in the middle.

then dip it into the sauce.

and repeat.
