Went there for a birthday celebration for a friend.
Pros: Nicely decorated for the Zen feeling though I see some parts of the wall is already peeling. Service from staff is quick, serving of food is big and therefore filling if you are looking for a good meal there. Ordered Curry chicken Katsu don which taste well though abit too sweet. Dessert is great and I especially like the chocolate waffle. It should be a nice place for a small family or friends outing.
Cons: Nothing special about the menu especially the main dish. Cold green tea does not taste nice and its not the "occasion" kind of thing as every time I go there, the cold green tea tasted like "cold tuna green tea". Not good for dates.
Clothes are in-stock and in good quality. Reaction fast, emails came like within 1 day of queries or ordering. Very accommodating as they allow bank transfer by various banks and even when I used UOB bank to transfer to their DBS and took 3 days, they are fine with it. (Do inform them first) Clothes are unique and shown big on the blogshop together with the descriptions. Pleasing blog design makes browsing through loads of photos easy on the eye. There is also a discount area where they sell over stocks at big discounts.
Cons:
Too many photos makes loading slow. Lack of categorization of clothes hence got to look through all the items to find what you wanted. A tad expensive though their items are mostly unique. Clothes are sold out at fast speed so I have to go and browse through fast whenever I receive their update notification.
A friend of mine recommended this brand of ice cream to me. He said he simply love the Ferrero flavor. Being curious, I decided to give it a try.
Disappointed! I ordered Rum and Raisin and Dark Choc with M&Ms. Well, I'm not sure whether it was the blend but it does not taste appetizing at all. The taste was well... under the line... not up to it.... or the Chinese explanation : 不到味
Cold Rock wins, by having unique ice cream toppings, flavor and giving customers the thrill of watching their ice cream being blended (ouch) however, blending makes the ice cream flavors mixed up and sometimes cancel out each other. Further, blended ice cream does not look good at all. (As per my photo)
For ice cream of that pricing, I will rather go to Hagaan Daz right opposite or Scoopz which up till now is my favorite.
Went to my friend's wedding dinner at Hilton Grand Ballroom. Never went there before and was thinking the place, food and class should be very impressive. However, we are quite disappointed as the food was so so. The only item on the menu I liked was the 佛提飘香or whatever that was one of the photos. Crispy outer rim of yam and well cooked vegetables in the center.
There was nothing special about the decoration of the ballroom and the place was quite cramped. As for service, I won't be able to give a fair comment as we were served by someone new. The person keep mixing up our drinks order like my neighbor wanted white wine and the person gave him red wine. Another wanted Sprite and I wanted no drinks but I was given the Sprite and she wasn't given anything. Other things like spraying me with coke while he served my husband's drinks.
Beautifully decorated with big screens, nice stage and crystal chandeliers. Service crew are polite and react fast to request. Service crew is 1 per 2 table. Food is above average, ingredients fresh and unique in terms of menu. Their fish dishes are delicious. Very suitable for family dinner outing and wedding dinner. Ballroom and restaurant are pillar-less and size is customizable by their sound proof wall panel according to the size of your event. Sound system is great though you will need to bring your laptop for the wedding dinner as their computer is only use for their own lighting. Open to negotiation. Clean environment.
Cons:
Difficult for planning and communication if you are the type who needs to take charge of your wedding dinner. The restaurant goes by the "last minute" policy and the lady boss Suzanna encourages people not to check things with them too early a date. Questions asked and things decided are not taken down. There is nobody assigned to our event and instead whoever is available will do it. (I had to explain myself so many times) Small bridal room for brides to do make up in.
