I do agree with the previous post that the food is delicious and relatively good price for its quality; however I wonder if they are under staff? It is quite crowded here especially during peak hours. You may have to wait for 15 to 30 min for a table. Service is not as good too probably due to the crowd. I did not get my warm water served until I repeated my request from 3 waitresses.
However, this place really has good food. I really like it. Unless you mind the slow service and long queue, this place would be a must try!
I won't say that this place has everything to offer. It has a huge bookstore, great for readers of all genres. There are also some art stores at the higher levels, with specific art materials to be found. There are the fast food centres and food outlets around the place; however, apart from these shops, the rest are more of high-end boutiques like Hugo Boss and Armani Xchange, or slightly cheaper (relative) alternatives like Zara. Perhaps if you're searching for cheaper things, NAC is not exactly the place to go. Perhaps neighbourhood shopping malls would be better.
This shop basically sells roadside snacks that, from the name, I assume are popular snacks in Taiwan. They have things like fried chicken, oyster mee sua and some other snacks. It's not bad and the price could be said to be just a little above average, if not just right. The only bad thing is that there are not many seats available at the various outlets other than the one at Cathey Cineplex and Cineleisure.
This shop can be found at various places such as Cathay Cineplex, Cineleisure, Far East Plaza and Hougang Mall (I think).
I don't know if anyone has ever seen this poster at the bus interchange that states that SBS is the only transport service company out of the many other taxi and bus companies that obtained a gold star award. Of the many hundreds of employees in SBS, one of them got the rare award - a Gold Star in service .
I don't know if people are impressed by this publicity, but I am not particularly impressed or anything. Instead, I'm not surprised why only one of them got an award, out of the many hundred potentials.
I was on one of the buses that left from Bedok Interchange one day. As I was seated at the front of the bus, naturally I'd want to alight from the nearest door - the front door. There was no one boarding the bus and I was the only one alighting. However, the bus driver refused to open the door for me. He did not even try to explain why I should exit from the back door but just showed a hand gesture indicating that the only way I can alight is through the back door.
Another time was when I was on the bus and I over heard a conversation between a foreigner and the bus driver. The passenger wanted to find out how to get a particular destination but wasn't able to express herself well in English. The bus driver did not understand her and went "Huh?" in an extremely loud and rude tone.
Perhaps it's the high expectations of us consumers, but I feel that it's not right for people working in this arena to behave in such a manner as it reflects more than just the individual themself.
If you're looking for a place to try vietnamese food, I highly recommend this shop at Caltex House. It is located near Raffles Place MRT Station, very convenient to go to.
The food comes in huge servings and taste almost similar to those that you can get in Vietnam, only that it is slightly tastier here to cater to the likings of Singaporeans. It is a must try!
However, as the shop is located at Raffles Place, it is very crowded during lunch hours and the shop unit is very small. The shop is only opened slightly before lunch hour, till around 4pm.
