To me this place serves decent pratas but there are other places that serves better pratas.
The last time I went, I went with my colleagues. I ordered one plain prata and one one egg with onion prata. Both came fresh and hot. However I find the plain one tasted a bit plain. The egg with onion one slightly better. The egg and onion is well distributed within the prata itself.
Then I also order a banana prata to taste. It is good. Thin and crispy crust with slices of banana on it! A bit on the sweet side though.
It is open 24 hrs so it is also a good place to go and la kopi if got nothing to do at night.
Ice Cream Chefs ... located along East Coast Road... How could I not visit this place?! It's a quaint little joint located near where Jackie's Bowl used to be.
Initially I'd thought the ice cream would be made on the spot ... haha the bimbo I am...
The ice cream is displayed like normal. There are many flavours to choose from including special ones like Chocolate and Hershey's, Nutella Delight, Mrs Smith, etc. The ice cream is made from real ingredients... not just flavouring. There's real durian meat in the Durian Decadence flavour.
And The really special thing they'd do for you is CUSTOMISE your ice-cream. You can add Loacker's wafers, Oreos... into your ice-cream!! You can even mix flavours...
One large pint will cost $9.50. Two pints was nice for 3 people who loved ice cream.
I think it's worth a try. The quality is pretty good and it's great fun! The ambience is very casual with music from the radio in the background. You can choose to sit inside or outside... total seating area for about 20 people .
This is one site that all book lovers should join. Find books in BookJetty and it'll search through Amazon for details and listing of the books that matches your query. The most exciting thing is the integration of the search of the books in National Library too!! Yes! Our dear NLB! It'll tell you where you'll be able to find the book and whether or not its on loan and if you need the list of libraries with the book, you can even send a SMS to yourself so that you don't have to write it down on paper.
I've not been reading for long long long long time. (Apart from reading in Yebber and the other blogs I read.) But now with BookJetty, I might just pick up reading again! So loving the feature of BookJetty! Go try it to see it yourself!
I went to Bugis Junction not too long ago and I noticed that the food court was gone! Well ok, the one at the basement at least.
The foodcourt was shifted up to the 2nd or 3rd level, taking over where The Edge used to be if I'm not wrong. So now there's this whole corner that's solely for the foodcourt. I thought the new interior of the foodcourt was quite nice. It gave it abit more class; a level above the normal foodcourts you see around. With the cushioned chairs it actually give me a slightly oriental feel, somehow. =x
However, the bad thing about the place was that there were too few seats. With the new tables and all, it took up even more space than usual. There was a lack of tables and even walking space.
On the other hand, the foodcourt now seems to have many more stalls! I even saw pepper lunch and such! It was quite interesting because, well you don't usually see a fastfood outlet in a foodcourt do you.
The overall feeling was that the quality of food was better and there was a larger variety of food. Worth a try at least(:
This is the place where my dog visits when something happen to him. Decided to give this place a try when it is quite near to my home.
The doctors and the nurses there are very professional, good and friendly. They are also very patient in answering all the silly questions that I might asked whenever I visit them as well.
They got quite a huge following, whenever I am there, theyre always seems to have a lot of ppl as well.
The one thing good about this outlet is that it isnn't that crowded, attributed by its location which is nt very accessible if you are taking public transport.
Therefore, you can expect a shorter queue as well as avoiding seeing or hearing the famous statement such as "Despite doubling our staff and increaing our production efficiency , we may nt be able to serve you promptly as desired, blar blar blar", by another donut franchise. Haha.
As for the donuts themselves, the flavours are more or less the same as that of Donut Factory. And as what Dilly had mentioned, they put their donuts out on display, thu making them cold and not so visually appealing as seeing it coming fresh out of the oven.
Overall, the donuts are just so-so and the only plus point is being the relatively shorter queue.
I know the owner of this cafe and decided to give it a try when me and my friends are nearby.
The placer is a bit small but cosy. The tables are tend to be a bit close together co not much or privacy.
The kitchen cum bar is open concept. So prepared to smell a lot of different food being cooked! Haa.....
The food there got salad, sandwiches etc and I was recommended to try Slow-Roasted Pulled Pork. It was good! The meat is tender, no fats and simply melts in my mouth. Hee.... If you cannot decided what you wanna to eat and got a group of frens, maybe you can try the platter of sandwiches, which come with soup as well.
Their desserts also got a lot, cakes to pudding. I loved their chocolate cake pudding. Not too sweet and not too bitter as well. Jz nice.
The place tend to attract more students as it is linked to the tution centre above the cafe.
I am also a fan of TCC. Always would try to hang out there to chit chat with my frens whiel waiting for the movie to start.
It is a place that serves a wide variety of coffee and tea, both hot and cold. I loved their Jap red bean ice blend drink, and other special types of drink that they had mixed. Their coffee offer the widest choice to choose from. Usually I will jz go for their mocha. Hee....
Their food, both snacks and main, are great. I loved their wedges, fried mushrooms and many more. Main dish, I like their chicken chop together with a curry. Nice!
The deco in this outlet is good espcially inside the sofa areas. If you had not been there, give this place a try when you walk past it next time! Rememebr to ask for air con seats to try out their sofa ok! Hee....
Decided to try their donuts when 8 Days recommended their donuts. The queue was not that long but still a good 20 mins wait.
The variety of the donuts is not a lot compared to others. Got an assorted set. After tasting a few, not really impressed with the donuts, find them a bit too sweet for liking. Too me it is jz like overated dough!
Had been to this cafe once with my friends. That was my first time eating there though I had walked past it several times while strolling along Singapore River.
Me and my friends ordered a couple of dishes to share among us. Our order included Fritto Misto (a seafood platter with crab cakes, prawn tails), Pollo E Peperoni pizza (consisting of tomato, mozzarella, chicken, bell pepper and basil) and Al Crudo pizza ( consisting Rucola, Parma Ham, Tomato and Mozzarella Cheese). The taste of the platter and pizzas were really quite nice. The crust of the pizza were not too thick and were done crisp and not heavy on the flour. The ingredients were fresh and juicy.
The cafe is famous for its wide range of desserts such as homemade gelato, pastries and celebratory cakes. So we decided to try some of the pastries out. We ordered a total of 5 different pastries, which is called Pasticceria in Italian.
They were Diplomatica, Musa, Cassata Siciliana, Soffiato , and Tiramisu. All of them really tasted good and nt very sweet as well. Recalling all thi smakes me drool!! *Slurp*
So for those who are more health conscious. do not worry!!!
There are many more different types of pastries that I will go back to try as well as the gelato. All in all, I would recommend this place for people who have a weakness for nice pastries.
