Borshch (a la carte $7)
classic Russian broth with a Hainanese twist, served with chunks of beef shank, slow cooked to perfection
It was served with sour cream. The soup was very rich and creamy with pieces of meats in it, unlike the watery stuff which one usually found in the cha chaan teng cafes.

Although butter was served, there was no bun served with it. Not sure what was the butter served for?

For Wednesday, the main course was Oxtail Stew (a la carte S$32, only available on weekends).
Hearty Hainanese Heaven. Enjoy the melt in your mouth experience with each chunk of the 36 hour slow braised oxtail.
The dish was served with boiled carrots, broccoli and potato. The oxtail was very tender and flavourful. The serving was huge.

I ended the meal with a cup of coffee (a la carte S$4), which was strong and bitter. It just brought one back to a coffee shop. None of the modern cafe style taste.

This is one place that I never knew it existed till my friend introduced me. The restaurant is all about Russian food and yes it was my first time trying Russian food and I was really excited. The decor and furniture of this restaurant is almost like in the 80s and waiters are waitresses were dressed in butler style which was really something uniformed and unique about this restaurant. We were serve with bread roll first. The bread was soft and fresh, really enjoyed every bit of it. I ordered

We were serve with bread roll first. The bread was soft and fresh, really enjoyed every bit of it. I ordered the Borsch soup with it and really tasty as well. Heard that this is one of their signature there and you must definitely order it. I also tried the Russian coffee. It was really strong and fragrant with tinge of alcohol in it. We ordered sides such as egg millionaire and Escargot. Egg millionaire was delicious but I didn't really like the Escargot though. For the main, I ordered the Shashlik beef. This came in a hot plate. It may look small but it was actually filling enough. Since is a signature, this is a must order! Beef tenderness is just right and juicy. Last but not least, we ordered a bomb alaska for sharing. The best bomb alaska I've tried so far. Do note to make a reservation first before heading down.

I do not like the food here. It was a poor recommendation to come to this place for lunch. The place was old and service wasn't fantastic (not rude but not very welcoming either) but it was the food that was a let down. The only thing I think I enjoy was the baked Alaska which is this cake drizzled with alcohol (they flame it) and has ice cream inside. Sweet and you can taste the hint of the alcohol.

The beef skewered and roasted. Very tasteless and quite tough. If you serve a meat like this with no sauce, it had better be a premium grade meat but this was not the case. Once again, not a good recommendation to come here unless you are really curious to try Russian food. Plus it's not cheap either!

Came here one fine Saturday after hearing lots about this restaurant. I wasn't (and still am not) confident to say I knew a lot about Russian cuisine so this was a step out of my comfort zone... I think my wallet felt the same way too. We ordered what I think was a dozen escargot as a starter. Sadly the escargot here was just not up to standard. There's this slight taste of dirt... I don't even know. Jack's Place is still best for escargot. This is what I had for my main course - creamy chicken

This is what I had for my main course - creamy chicken with rice. Verdict? Just. Plain. Horrible. Bland and flat. I think I only had 2-3 spoonfuls before casting this dish aside completely. Bad choice. Should have just gone with the steak!

For dessert we had to order the Baked Alaska. This, I admit, was really good. It's basically ice cream cake with a slightly "burnt" top/tips.

Oh by the way, the restaurant has this incredibly weird smell that might make you feel a lot less hungry. Beware. I don't think I'll be coming back at all... just wasn't impressed. Perhaps I just made bad dish decisions!

First time trying out Russian cuisine, so of cos I will get the most safe dish to try out. I had the shashilik of Chicken, which consist of huge chunks of chicken thigh meat in a skewer served in hot plate, with a handful of french fries and greens. The hot plate chicken does smell really good but however, the chicken is kinda overrated. It is quite tasteless without any marination/seasoning thus I have to keep adding salt in order to have some saltiness in the dish. Will be good if they have so

It is quite tasteless without any marination/seasoning thus I have to keep adding salt in order to have some saltiness in the dish. Will be good if they have some kind of home made sauce to go with this dish. Other than that, I tried their signature dessert - baked Alaska which tasted really good and addictive! Overall the price is quite steep, so unless if I am craving for the dessert, I guess I won't be going there frequently..

The sour cream that was added into the soup makes it even more appetising and tasty.
Next is the Shashlik of Beef Fillet, I requested to be cooked to be medium. The beef fillet is well marinated with garlic and other spices and was grilled to perfection which made it very tender and juicy. The accompanying side dish consist of papaya, a quarter of a hard-boiled egg, celery stick, tomatoes, cucumber, potato salad, pickles and coleslaw. I find that the pototo salad and coleslaw is pretty good.

The Price
Reasonably priced at $40++ with good ambience and taste

Overall
The Borshch Soup and Shashlik of Beef Fillet are fantastic, these 2 dishes are their signature and highly recommended to try!!

Shashlik is famous for its Borsch Soup. The waiter/waitress will push out the wooden trolley with a tureen sitting on it, ladled the soup from it and served at the table. It also came with a scoop of sour cream if you want it. The flavour of the tomato based Borsch Soup ws complex but pretty good. A free soft bun was also served, extra at $0.50. It was warm, fluffy and with some sweetness. It was very good eating it alone with the spread of butter or for cleaning up the plate.

The onion soup was quite average and a bit salty. I kind of regret ordering it since I am at a Russian theme restaurant.

For the main, I went for the Lamb Shashlik (meat on skewer) which is available in lamb, chicken, beef and pork. Once again, the waiter/waitress pushed the wooden trolley up to the table, removed the meat from the skewer and plated up the meat, fries and garnished it on a sizzling hot plate. Nothing fancy on how the meat is prepared or cooked. It is all down to the marination of the meat. The lamb was really tasty from the marination.

My girlfriend and I decided to try something new – Russian food! we both have never eaten Russian food before and it was such an eye opener. I ordered their borsh soup, it was so good! the soup was so thick and tasty, there were plenty of ingredients in the soup. I love the beef pieces especially, it brings out the flavor of the soup. I love the butter added to the soup, gives it a creamy touch. As a whole the soup taste really good!

The restaurant is dimly-lit and it was a restaurant good for meeting up and chatting with friends and family. People travel far to savour the steak and borsch at Shashlik.

The escargots were great as well, they were soft and the garlic sauce complemented the escargots very well. The medium steak I ordered was done right and it tasted good. I find that the price of the steak might be cheaper than Jack's Place's dinner, and with the great borsch and escargots, Shashlik definitely win over Jack's Place (comparison based on dinner).

Food-wise, stick to the Borsch, Oxtail Stew, Shashlik of Beef, Spring Chicken, Baked Alaska and Cherries Jubilee to avoid disappointment.

As usual, I loved the soft and fluffy bread rolls here, served warm with a pat of SCS butter. As I had a late lunch that day, I regrettably skipped the lovely Borsch soup in order to save space for desserts (which I unfortunately had to pass on)

My order of Chicken A La Kiev "Imperial" ($19++) comprised lightly breaded chicken served with a piece of toast, crisp fries and boiled mixed vegetables. The chicken breast meat was satisfying tender, and was, interestingly, stuffed with butter. However, the toast was too stiff for my liking, though it was deep-fried to a golden crisp.


Harris's Pepper Steak ($26++) was done to a medium as requested, but it was a pity that the pepper overwhelmed the flavor of the meat. Contrary to its name, Frances' Chicken A La King ($19++) would probably fail to satisfy the palate of royalty. This comprised chicken stewed in an overly thick sauce reminiscent of canned mushroom soup, accompanied by rice and mixed vegetables.

Shashlik is famous for their borsch soup ($7++ for an a la carte portion; the soup of the day can be upgraded to the borsch for $1++), and it's not difficult to see why. Ladled out at the table from a tureen sitting on a creaky wooden trolley, this tangy tomato-based soup came with a generous portion of soft cabbage shreds, as well as chunks of beef, carrot and potato.

The restaurant is also known for its namesake, shashlik. Available in beef, chicken, lamb, pork and even prawns, the version here consists of grilled skewered meat served on a sizzling cast iron plate, and accompanied by Russian salad or boiled frozen mixed vegetables and fries. While tender and succulent, the Shashlik of Chicken ($18.50++) should be eaten quickly as it continues to cook on the hotplate. I also felt that the meat could also have done with more flavor as it was served without a sauce.

The Spring Chicken (Whole) ($17++) was another well-executed main course. Though it was not as juicy as some other fried chicken dishes I've had, this was barely greasy. And there's no faulting the crisp and fragrant golden-brown skin or the moist and tender meat!

Shashlik Restaurant is like a time capsule. Set up in 1986 by 9 Hainanse migrants in 1986 after being laid off at Russian restaurant Troika, the menu remained the same for the past twenty years. The old-school decor is, too, as dated as the stern and efficient staff who roll out the dishes on wooden trolleys around the restaurant.

Instead of the crusty loaves found in authentic Russian restaurants, soft and fluffy bread rolls are served here. Dished out piping hot from the steamer, these sweet buns are perfect on their own, spread with butter, or for mopping up the remains of a delicious stew.

One of the favorites here is the oxtail stew- only available on Wednesdays as part of the set lunch ($14++), which also comes with the soup of the day, dessert and a cup of coffee or tea. Though inexpensive, oxtail is no less worthy than other cuts of beef if prepared well, as with the case at Shashlik. Flavorsome and gelatinous, the deliciously tender oxtail was served in a rich and hearty sauce along with boiled frozen mixed vegetables and potato chunks.

The set lunch includes a boring wedge of watermelon to end off the meal, which you may replace with a scoop of vanilla ice cream upon request. But do order one of the restaurant's specialty flambéed desserts anyway.

I simply could not help but look on with interest as my order of Cherries Jubilee ($16++) was prepared right in front of my eyes. Firstly, a pat of butter was melted in the pan, followed by the addition of dark sweet cherries and a splash of kirsch that ignited in flames. A dollop of cream was stirred into the sauce before the whole fiery concoction was ladled over icy vanilla ice cream. While the menu states that the dessert is meant for two, the Cherries Jubilee was so delicious, I regretted not ordering whole serving for myself!

Desserts at the end after the main course which is the highlight at the end!! Very delicious cake topped with ice cream which is very tasty!! Topped with cherry and peach which is an added feature that enhances the whole cake.Presentation-wise,brandy was covered over the cake which creates an instant flaming result!! Highly recommended dessert!!
