Located in sand crawler, about 5 minutes walk from one-north mrt is Arkadas Cafe. The entrance to the cafe is accessed via the side road. It's pretty hidden and you can even see a water fall outisde of the cafe from the dining area.The staff are very friendly and during a weekday office hour lunch, they aren't too crowded, which is great for office meetings with business clients.

The staff are very friendly and during a weekday office hour lunch, they aren't too crowded, which is great for office meetings with business clients. The ambience is comfortable and the menu is pretty extensive.
1. Lamb Pide
This was recommdned to my party of 3. The lamb was deliciously juicy and the cheese was addictive. The pide itself was crispy like a thin crust pizza with a slight crunch on the ends. 2. Lunch set soup
The soup was flavourful but not too salty. Definitely not from a can. The soup had a subtle fragrance of a vegetable soup.
3. Turkish coffee and baklava
Turkish coffee is literally the strongest coffee I know of. There's so much coffee with so little water and served with baklava which is a very very sweet turkish dessert. Bitter plus overly sweet dessert equals a great end to any meal.
4. Humus
Their humus was smooth and delightful. I really liked it and reminded me of my time in Israel. Just wished felt that it was abit overpriced for such a small serving.
5. Kebab wrap
6. Moussaka *highly recommended*
The cheese here is so addictively good. I've had this twice over a period of 3 months. The top of the cheese is cooked and burnt to perfection and has a nice crisp to it. The insides of the cheese layer is smooth and gooey just the way I like it. There's tons of minced meat and vegetables underneath the layers of cheese.
The rice is extremely fragrant and flavourful. Do choose the rice as you have an option between rice and bread for this moussaka.
Overall: a great dining experience with a quiet and comfortable air conditioned environment, tucked away in a corner of one-north. Post
