I can picture myself sipping on a cup of coffee with a sketchbook in hand, just lazing around and gazing out the floor-to-ceiling windows. It almost feels like I’m on a holiday in Europe, but in reality, I’ve wandered into PS.Cafe at Palais Renaissance. Perhaps it’s the high ceiling, chic decor and palm trees that makes me feel like I’ve been transported to a different country.
For a weekday lunch the place was pretty packed, mainly with expatriates – a couple of Japanese ladies seated to our left and another group of westerners to our right. Lots of idle chatter and a fragrant whiff of freshly brewed coffee fills the air. We ordered 2 mains to share – a Steak Sandwich ($36) and Chicken in a Basket ($28).
Served on thick slices of char-grilled sourdough bread, you can see the steak glistening in the light just waiting for you to sink your fangs into its juicy, slightly pinkish meat. For those of you self-acclaimed meat lovers, the steak is a 400-day grain fed striploin. I’m just glad the cow got to live for over a year before it entered the slaughterhouse. =D
These are one of the most gorgeous looking fries I’ve seen and even its name is pretty too – Sesame & Nori Shoestring Fries. Served together with the steak sandwich, the fries seemed to be a little bit on the bland side, but I like it that way. It feels somewhat.. healthier, I guess. =P But you also have that tangy mayo dip which is oh-so-sinfully-good.
You can’t really go wrong with fried foods, as long as the ingredients are fresh and the temperature is right. I find the Chicken in a Basket pretty “standard fare”. Sure enough, the chicken was chunky and juicy (not dry at all) and the mayonnaise dip that comes with it is rather good too. It also comes with slightly thicker wedges instead of fries and some veggie sticks.
Sadly, it was time for me to bid farewell to my holiday in Europe and jump back into reality once again – time always seems to speed up when you’re on holiday. Overall, PS.Cafe is a great place to dine in style and quiet elegance. Don’t expect too much from the food, but I’m sure that great company (or your favourite book) and the change of environment will leave you feeling refreshed and recharged.For more food reviews, check out my blog at www.jerjerjer.com
