The opening hours for this outlet is a little different from the other outlets also in Raffles Place area - most open before the usual office hour (9am) but closes early too (7pm+). But this outlet opens only at 10am but closes late.

Initially, we were a bit reluctant to come to this outlet, as we saw on Yebber as well as other food websites, the fairly-bad review focusing on the bad service of the East Coast outlet of the same name (assume is the same group). But we still decide to try it out, for something different (we do not know where else to look for nice and cheap and nearby Italian food for lunch).
But when we were in, the service was acceptable. At least when we asked to change table just when the food starts coming, the staff had no questions and start helping us to take the plates to the other table.
For the 1-for-1, only 5 pastas were allowed (out of their many pasta selection). The clam white wine that I had was good (they gave me a small bowl for the clam shells, looks cute when besides my big plate of pasta), but the plain tomato based pasta looks so small serving (esp with the big plates).
For the 1-for-1, all pizzas are allowed (i think so) and the portion is so big that 2 ladies in my group could only barely finish half.
Taking about the place, they have 2 sections, one looks like a permanent establishment, while the other which we are in, looks like an extension built with wood and glass and leaves (haha, maybe just an impression). But the extension that we are in, do feel a little hot, maybe because they use individual aircon and not sort of central airconditioning in buildings. It probably will give better feel for dinner, then for lunch.

There is a rich variety of ingredients in the Cheng Tng. There are the typical dried Longan, White fungus and Pearl Barley. They also add unique items like sweet potato, sweetened winter melon and tau suan.
It cost $2 for a hot or cold one, and $1.50 for smaller serving size. They use glass bowls to serve, unlike other places where people use plastic bowls.
Their Cheng Tng is so good that Malays buy from them too. The queue for it is long and you have to wait like 10-15mins to get your bowl of Cheng Tng.
Next to the Cheng Tng stall, there is the cuttlefish kangkong stall by the same name.
The venue is quite out of the place, if you don't stay there. Only recommended to go if you are a gourmet person.

Their cheese fries is another of my favourite.
If you are going there on the weekday nights, it is almost like a ghost town, so there is no worry of having no seats.
I prefer the Seasons Ice Lemon Tea there, though I see there a lot of people choose the Ice Tea with lemon slices. I will add lemon slices to my Seasons Ice Lemon Tea instead.
Besides free flow of drinks, there is unlimited serving of pickles. If you like your burger with pickles, add unlimited amount to your burger.

We were quite disappointed with the service rendered by the usher. He actually shifted our belongings to another table, after we left the table to order our food, without our consent!
There were a lack of variety of food there, as we realised our favourite beef stew not available!
There plain Rosti ($5.90) taste superb, though a bit oily too. I find it not worth to order those with toppings as they cost twice the amount at least. Toppings comprise mushroom and sausages. I am not a fan of German sausages, so I rather stay with plain Rostis.
The Spanish seafood rice combo isn't tasty at same. Of course, European rice is not the same as Asian rice. But at a price of $22.90, I find the rice combo not value for money. The prawns weren't juicy at all. And they are not properly cleaned! You can still see the intestines intact.
The place is not crowded, though it was a Sunday we went. The cleaning staff are fast to clear the table of plates, even before we wanted to leave the place.
Only recommend this place if you have craving for European food.
