I went there some time back.
The ambience was ok, pretty much like the other cafes.
The pricing seems fine on the menu. (but did not seem so fine later).
Firstly, after we ordered, I asked for plain water and the server nodded. After a while, no water came so I raised my hand to remind. It was only then the other server informed me that iced water was not served (FOC) at this cafe. I'm not angry that water is not served (many places don't.) but I'm pissed at being made to look like a cheapo who keeps asking for free water.
Next the food that came looked ok. I took the ketuchup on the table and started to tilt it. Nothing came out. This was one of the situations where it's hard to get the sauce out from new bottles.... So we tried for a while but to no avail. SO we asked for another bottle after explaining the situation. The server gave us another one.... WITH THE SAME PROBLEM! I think it would have took just a little common sense to TEST first before handing the customer another stuck one! Then we raised the issue again and this time the server brought two bottles and he tried to pour for us... AND BOTH WERE STUCK! It was frustrating! The manager (or senior server) came to help and he just tried at our table.
(The correct thing to do at this time was to use a chopstick to stir the sauce in the kitchen, pour it out on a saucer and serve the customer the dish of sauce.)
Anyway finally we borrowed the sauce from the next table which seemed to have no trouble with theirs.
Food not fantastic.
Then we asked for the bill which took 10-15 minutes to come... and mind you, there were only 4 other tables occupied.

The Cheesecake Cafe is located just a stone's throw away from Siglap Centre. It's open from Wed-Sun, 4.30 - 11.30pm.
It is THE Cheesecake Cafe. As in THE. It serves up a whole host of different cheesecakes. There are also specials everyday which are not in the menu. The Rum N Raisin Cheesecake and Strawberry Oreo Cheesecake are great! There's also a peach one which I love but I can't remember the exact name. Anyway TRY ALL. I'm serious.
The food isn't all that great. They serve some finger food that taste different from time to time. The drinks are fine.
The ambience is very relaxed with jazz playing in the background. There are sofa seats and dinner tables to choose from, depending on what you wish to order.
It's the perfect place to chill out with your friends. But not for dinner.

Pepper Lunch! Definitely something new. The food cooks at your table so you needn't worry about it being served cold or stale-like. There's a wide variety of dishes for you to choose from with different combinations.
You could have salmon, chicken, rice, etc.
I had the Salmon and Chicken Combo, whilst my companion had the Beef set. Both of which tasted great. It would not be overcooked as the pan on which the food is served cools after a while.
The ambience is very casual as it is a fast food restaurant. The prices are higher than that of your regular fast food joints but it's really due to the quality of the food.
One small gripe I have would be that the servers could afford to smile a little more and they could make the system of seating the customers more transparent.

This is actually a concept restaurant. The food cooks at your table on a very very hot stone. There's no oil added, so it's really healthy. They use spices and marinate to make your meat taste good. There are pretty special dishes like the huge mushroom and all dishes are served with some vege and potato mash which tastes really nice!
The servers are well-mannered and always willing to help. They are also very knowledgeable and are able to dispense advice regarding the choice of food and the cooking method promptly.
The pricing is average. For the quality and ambience i guess it's reasonable.
I only have 2 gripes. One of which is that the variety is quite limited. There is only one dish of every meat... which means one chicken dish, one fish, one beef, one seafood, etc. The second is that I left the place, smelling as if you've just been to a barbeque.
