A casual cafe that serves really yummy chinese / malay or nonya styled quick meals like laksa, mee siam, mee rebus, popiah, nasi lemak and other yummy stuffs.
One of my favourites at the outlet will be the mee siam. Its not too spicy, tangy with adequate condiments such as tau pok and a whole hard boiled egg. The poh piah though is priced a little higher is a huge roll with crispy and crunchy filling.
If you enjoy nasi lemak rice with fried chicken or fish, then u will enjoy their nasilemak sets. The chilli is sweet and makes the fried sides extremely savoury.
Coffee and tea is served with a variety of home made traditional drinks such as chrysanthemum tea, bsrley, chin chau, soya and even bean curd skin with barley. These home cooked style drinkx are not too sweet and definitely packs a old skool taste.
The onlything missing is buteter kaya toast and half boiled eggs.
Forget to mention onre of my favourite tauhu goreng which is a large piece of bean curd deep fried with malay style or thai style dressing. My favourits is the malay style which is thick peanut sauce with plenty shredded cucumber and carrot.

I was WOW-ed by the selection of outdoor adventure merchandises they carry. First to greet me at the door is these really cool looking bags and carriers in various shapes and sizes, from different brands. A good bag is important because its gonna mostly stay on your shoulder for a long period of time or perhaps the entire escapade and it houses all the things that keeps you alive and comfy.
On a wall shelf, you can find bottles, special containers and other storage and functional tools and equipment's for our everyday needs, its like bringing a little of whatever you use in your bathroom with you. I like the way some of these canisters and mini dispensers were designed for ease of use, very logical and functional indeed.
Further in, you could also find tools and fashion items like winter clothing, sleeping bags and apparels that make you look like a dare-devil adventurer. The thing i love most is this little centre shelf that houses these handy foldable knives, tool kits and little trinkets that is functional and could be easily clipped on your bag or together with your keys.
Love the functional application of the merchandises. It just does not only look good, it works well and in time of need, it might just be a life saver. Love the spacious walk areas, there are many merchandises yet properly organized and comfortable to shop. Items are priced at a reasonable value and do watch out for special offers. Staff is friendly and helpful yet they leave you to browse and i appreciate that.

Like all food courts, they do have a good mix of varieties from soupy stuffs like fish soup, roasted meat, duck and chicken rice, western food and many other local singaporean food court food,however what is special is the filipino influence here. There is one particular corner stall that never seems to be queueless. The lutong pinoy filipino food. I must say, perhaps they serve the most close to heart filipino cuisines, though I 've made a mental note to try their food, I never could get past the everlasting queue.
I remembered the most about this food court is the VIKINGS HOT DOG Counter and of course VIKINGS hot dog which has long been non existent. In replacement is this cool looking stall that sells western food and they serve up a good portion with very reasonable pricing. They are a all in one, they have coffee, tea soft drinks, kaya toast and western food. Western food is yummy and looking at the size of that freshly fried cutlet makes my mouth waters. Cutlet with rice is going for a mere ($5.80) and the size of that cutlet is about 2 palm size. The beef stew rice ($6.80) is also really yummy with a whole round soup container worth of beef stew on your rice. I was a little disappointed when i saw them reheating the stew in a microwave oven, like every restaurant and cafe, i thought theirs would come from a piping and smoking pot, but that didn't happen. Yet the taste is fabulous. The sauce is Savoyard and delicious, beef soft and tender and the vegetables soft yet not soggy. I also tried their hotdog set because i really miss vikings hot dogs yet it appears to be different from the image. The dog is long and the better hotdogs are used, bread warm and crispy but the condiments are missing. The cripsy fried onion, pickles and whatsoever shown on the picture on top of the dogs is missing. I'm disappointed. should have ordered carbonara pasta or something.
Taste of Food: 3.5/5
Price: 4/5
Quality of food: 3.5/5
Presentation; 4/5 - for food court standard, their presentation is appealing... or maybe its the sheer size.
Service: 4/5 - Service is fast, food packed nicely and with cutleries included, though lack of some smile but service is quick and efficient.
Will I come back: I've been thinking of trying their other stuffs once i completed my meal --- SURELY YES
Will I bring my friends: Yes... and I will intro them the 2palm sized cutlets :)

Though the shop is small and tables placed extremely close to one another, the customers and staffs are very accommodating to try to house each other. No angry faces were seen when somebody's butt accidentally rubbed on somebody's shoulder trying to get out of that tight space and everybody seemed to be considerate not to take up more space then required. I was impressed with this kind and courteous behavior, it is to be applauded.
Service is prompt but casual and usually there is a huge queue outside. So as you enter, you make your order and payment at the counter and ask her to help find you a seat. After which get seated and wait for your food. You could also get a bag of yummy koropoks (crackers) from the counter and munch away. They have a service counter in which you could find some sauces and soup. Soup is self service and free flow, so please help yourself. It is tasty and goes extremely well with the food and rice.
I will suggest you to bring my tissues because their sauces especially the chilli padi ones are FIERY HOT... The one that is black KACAP based one looked innocent yet one dip sent me running for a drink. The KACAP Black sauce goes extremely well with anything. I think its a mixture of sweet sauce and black soya sauce with lime and loads of chilli padi. It goes well with all the food including the koropok, i love it but it sends me flying.
So these are the food I ordered and simply love it because its well done, delicious and fulfilling.
1)Grilled Boneless Milkfish with rice ($10) - milkfish crispy and love the veg condiments and tampe that comes with the set.
2) Grilled CatFish with rice ($7) - Catfish is properly done however Catfish always has a muddy taste so this one also though its fleshy and has a flavorful skin.
3) Chicken Satay ($7.50) - chicken is tender and flavorful, No wow factor just better then average
4) Gado Gado ($6) - which is a mixed vegetable, beancurd, koropok and tempe with peanut sauce. No wow factor, just above average.
5)Avocado ($4.30) - Avocado is always yummy. its a regular cup of drink / shake.

Taking on Filipino chefs, the dishes we ordered is simply fantastic:
1) Chicken Pork Adobo which is a Pork and Chicken pan simmered in vinegar, soy sauce, and loads of garlic)
2) Sinigang, a tamarind based soup with meat and veggies
3) Ginataang gulay which is an all time favourite of mine, a variety of veggies cooked in coconut milk,
4) Maja Blanca for dessert, a corn and white pearls
The restaurant is not a really huge place but enough for groups and families. Price is reasonable by me and we had a great feast.
