It's been maybe a year since I've been to Billy Bombers. I remember trying their burgers there. Quite a couple in fact. A few of us were there and we ordered different ones to try and share. The impression I had of the place was a good one and I thought that I'd be back one day ( that "one day" came only a year later..)
This time we order two main courses to share, out of which one was their promotion 4-meal-set-course. It's actually just a drink, soup, dessert and a main course. Nothing as special as they made it sound like.
The service there was ok I must say. Maybe because it wasn't their busiest time yet, and so we were always attended to immediately. Also, our food was served almost immediately, it was good because I was starving!
My soup came first. It was ok, but nothing different from the Cream of Chicken you get at most places. The "exciting" ones were the main course. We had a sirloin steak and half a grilled honey chicken with BBQ sauce.
The steak was horrible. I wanted my steak to be done medium. It came out with part of it well done like it was over-cooked. It was really tough and more than a quarter of the steak was just fats and there was effectively very little meat left considering it was a small piece to begin with. It was served with 2 side dishes - creamy spinach and potato salad. They both had a weird smell/ taste. Probably the same cream or sonemething used? And the spinach just looked horrible - cream with soggy spinach. It spoils your appetite.
As for the chicken, it wasn't exactly well done. The taste was fine, but it wasn't well done because you can still see red parts on the chicken. It's common you'd say, but it's not what I'd expect from a place like Billy Bombers.
When I left the place after dinner, I didn't feel full at all. Even though they've got nice interior decoration and acceptable service, the food that I had today wasn't worth what I paid. I don't think I'll frequent the place in future..
well being a typical singaporean who uses the BMW (Bus,Walk and MRT) to travel around, SBS is definitely the most common bus service provider that I take my rides on.
Basically, I would say that the bus captains' that i have met thus far have been quite polite and none have left me a bad impression, What's more that leaves me more upset would be the inconsistent frequency of arrival of buses. Though I understand that traffic conditions may be quite dynamic, but sometimes it is really quite upsetting to see either the bus too full to get up or two buses of the same number come together. In addition, some buses as Polarbear had said,
are poorly maintained as well and at times u can see small roaches which is really quite a turn-off.
Therefore if SBS wanna jack up their fares in future, I really do hope that they can improve on their service standards.
Been using the Maxonline since approximately 5-6 yrs ago..So far, I must say that the speed of my Internet access had been quite good. And coupled with the free upgrade in speed which was abt say 1 yr plus ago, surfing had been even better and smooth with little glicthes thus far.
The only time there was some problem was with the modem which somehow failed after a year and I had to get to the service centre to get it verified and exchanged for a new one.
Therefore, I would say that I would remain a Maxonline user unless Singnet comes up with better service and more goodies. Looking forward to to Sitex 2007 for more attractive packages in Dec 07 to see if I wanna upgrade to a higher value package.
Had eaten quite a few times at this eatery. This place serves nice dim sum at afforable prices. The range of dim sum includes the familiar 虾蛟, 烧卖,鸡脚,排骨, 猪肠粉 and many more.
Each of these come at afforable prices ranging from $3 (if i rem correctly) upwards. The shrimps they used are really fresh and each 虾蛟 actually has two shrimps inside!! Normally, one 虾蛟 would have only one inside. In addition to the normal dim sum, they also serve those mini 盅仔饭。 So far I have yet to try as I always call like at least 10 baskets of dim sum. And the total cost of my bills for such quantity is under $40.
So do go down there and try it for yourself. The standard is definitely up to par to those you find at the Yum Cha restaurant and is really value for money. The operating hours are as follows:
Mon -Fri 3pm-5am
Sat 12pm-5am
Sun 10am-4am
Wait no more!!! Hurry down there for your supper now!!! (",)
Glasil is a relatively new store managed by a lady who makes the items herself. I had the honour of watching her in action whilst I was in the store.
The display of the store is amazing. She has bracelets and earrings all over. But most of the items are quite simple and not very complicated. The materials are less common but not the design itself. The finished products are priced about $5 to $100 for those with precious stones.
The materials she sells for DIY are in small quantities and there isn't much variety. She has mainly glass and czech crystal stuff so they are all quite pricey. Even plastic items are not cheap either. It's for the casual maker making for herself really. As for findings and wires there's also very little to choose from.
At the back of the store she sells some bags which are quite interesting. The material may not be good but they are quite cheap.
The owner herself is quite knowledgeable about the materials she sells but her staff isn't. They had to consult her many times on what the material is and where are certain items placed.
There are 2 faces to Geylang - the notorious red light district thronged by "social escorts" and the food haven where tiny shops and restaurants line every nook and cranny, serving up good food. Shatin Kitchen obviously falls into the latter category and is helmed by chef Tonny Chan.
Newspaper articles adorn the walls of this unpretentious air conditioned eatery located right at the beginning of Geylang road. Decor is simplistic and reminiscent of a typical Chinese restaurant without the frills.
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon - In case you are wondering, no, chef Tonny didn't name this dish after Lee Ang's Oscar winning movie. It is so named because of the ingredients in the dish - egg white, lobster and scallops as well as the way it is presented - in a basket made from deep fried wanton skin. This dish won chef Tonny an award in a cooking competition some years back and was featured in the recent 100 best dishes article published by the Straits Times. With the accolades aside, it was down to the taste test. Honestly, it was disappointing. Yes, I could taste the texture of the scallops and the egg white but where was the lobster? And if eaten alone without the wanton skin, it proved to be a tad too salty for my liking. Eaten with the skin, it was really nothing nothing to shout about, coming across as average and not something I would pay $6 a portion for.
Kailan - The vegetables were tasty but rather limp, probably due to overcooking and the gravy was a tad too starchy for my liking.
Five Spices Fried Pork Chop - Sorry about the literal translation but theres no English name for this dish in the menu. The pork chop was undoubtedly the best dish of the evening, with the meat tender yet lightly sweet and chewy. It actually tasted like very tender char siew, albeit of a different colour. Couldn't quite make out the five spices though.
Deep Fried Cod Fish - I liked the fact that the cod fish came with nice small tomatoes alongside to spruce up the entire dish. What I didn't like was that the fish meat was bland and soft, nothing like the firm yet smooth meat good cod fish should have. The accompanying sauce was rather bland as well, tasting like a watered down version of oyster sauce.
Red Bean Paste Pancake - I've always been biased towards red bean paste pancakes but this one was a little let down. Though fragrant, the flour was too thick which made it rather chewy overall. On a positive note, the red bean filling was generous and not too sweet.
The 3 of us chalked up a bill of about $81, which is rather expensive given that the quality of food was merely slightly above average and portions are lacking in size. On a side note, I'm suitably impressed with the level of service at Shatin Kitchen, something lacking in alot of small Chinese eateries nowadays. However, all the hype surrounding this eatery is totally uncalled for in my humble opinion and I highly doubt that I'll be back.
Cosmopolitan club street has a new entrant - Eden Cafe, which opened its doors to a soft launch only last Wednesday. New as the cafe may be, the man at the helm, Clement Ronald, is certainly no stranger to the culinary scene, having appeared in many television and magazines write ups in the past year due to his unique blend of cooking which involves plants, dubbed "floral cooking". He used to preside over the kitchen at Helios Cafe at Marina Square, but unfortunately that space is available only for private functions now.
Occupying a small unit just opposite liberty insurance, Eden Cafe threatens to be overshadowed by its more illustrious neighbours like Senso, Indochine, Spizza, Jerry's, just to name a few. The interior is tiny (I'm guessing about 20pax) and simplistic, opting for a more laid back setting with soft music in the background.
Jumbo prawns wrapped in Bacon - Prawns wrapped in bacons are always nice. Ideally the saltiness from the not too fatty bacon should complement the raw sweetness of the prawns. However it didn't happen in this case. The prawns were smaller than I had expected and the bacon wasn't grilled throughly enough, resulting in a softer than I would have liked texture. But overall still a rather decent dish, especially with the freshness of the tomato salsa salad by the side.
Saffron Cream Sauce Salmon - I don't usually like salmon because they have this raw fishy taste which I detest. Not this one however. The salmon's meat was firm minus the fishy overtones and together with the buttery and flavourful home concocted gravy, made for a light yet pleasing dish. However I could detect some inconsistencies in the dish, with some parts of the salmon being a lot saltier than others. The whole portabello mushroom that came with it was good for lapping up the tasty gravy, just that it was a little too soft for my liking.
Red Wine Beef - I would have liked this dish quite a bit if it wasn't that raw. The meat slab was thick which probably explains the rawness in some areas. The red wine sauce had a nice sweet red wine taste (naturally!) without being too overpowering. There was garlic in it, but I couldn't quite make it out. The mashed potatos were great with the sauce by the way.
We had one other main, the Rosemary Chicken, which I unfortunately do not have a shot of because I stupidly deleted it by accident and data recovery doesn't seem to work. Well I have asked around and hopefully someone has it so that I can post it up if they are willing to send it to me. That aside, as the name suggests, the chicken was cooked with rosemary and lavender, which gave it a rather fruity/leafy slant. The chicken was rather tender and moist but certain parts could get quite strong on the rosemary taste, especially the outer layer, which I personally couldn't quite take
Crème Brûlée - According to Clement, the Crème Brûlées are made from real vanilla beans, not vanilla essence or extract like most other places. The little black dots within are proof of that. Clement personally handled the melting of the sugar atop and I must complement his technique as the layer of sugar was thin and evenly coagulated. The pudding was soft and wobbly and didn't come across as too sweet. Definitely one of the better Crème Brûlées that I've tasted.
Brandy Chocolate - Now this is one sinful dessert with rich and unadulterated chocolate. Nothing fancy, just pure milk chocolate with brandy. However I couldn't quite make out the brandy which was a bummer really. Definitely not for the health conscious!
Tiramisu - The Tiramisu was covered by a layer of rich chocolate, very different from others I've eaten. But that doesn't not necessarily mean that its better. I could barely taste the cake in it and overall it was very dense with quite a strong rum taste in certain areas. My guess is that the mixing wasn't done thoroughly enough.
Hibiscus Cheese Phyllo - Undoubtedly the star of the desserts (at least for me), the Hibiscus Cheese Phyllo (or filo if you so wish) came looking very much like an egg omelette. The filling looked like yam ice cream instead of cheese, which was really quite interesting. Texture and taste wise, it reminded me of a partially melted cheese flavoured ice cream with a slight fruity connotation. A delectable dish but one not one I would recommend to consume too much of as the cheese taste can be a little overwhelming after a while.
Total bill for 8 pax with drinks cost about $337, which is definitely not expensive given the quality and amount of food. Dinner is unhurried and pleasant with great service from Clement himself as well as the other wait staff. There is this little herb garden in which Clement grows his own flora for use in his dishes. Do ask to see it if you happen to dine at Eden's. How about an encore folks? Seedless grape chicken? ;)
Been to this place twice so far.. Would say that their fried chicken was really good, even better than that of KFC. Partly because I think it is less oily and yet the outer skin can still be very crispy and has that "crunching" sound when you bit into it. As for the biscuit, it tastes equally good and is very different from the normal biscuits that you get outside.
I agree with Feizhu that the waiting time can be quite long, which is definitely attributed to the slow working pace of the staff there. In the end, you get a long queue. Pehaps this is their strategy to attract ppl to try their food? haha
But too bad that there is one and only one outlet of Popeyes, which is at Changi Airport, meaning you either had to take a train or drive all the way there just to grab of the food. Thus, both times I have eaten it was due to me being there to send someone off.
So really hope that maybe they would allow someone to do the franchising and open up more outlets around the island. Give KFC a run for their money!!
Since I dun own a car, public transport to me is very important. Ever since they keep increasing their fare every year, my expectation for them is also getting higher and higher.
Since around my work place, I have to take SBS bus to work every weekeday. I ahve to say that I am quite happy with the bus conditions. However they can work on the bus frequencies, like the bus supposed to come in every 5 mins during peak hours but then one bus decided to come earlier, and the bus will be pretty empty. Then the next bus that came on time, will be damned packed as the waiting time for the bus is longer.
I do find sometimes the bus a bit dirty as well but then if everyone of us take good care of it, I think the bus will be cleaner and no need to wait for the cleaners to clean the buses.
I am quite happy with the IRIS service as now I will always use it to find out how long does it take the next bus to arrive to the bus stop. I does cut down my waiting time as well. However the sms service only limited to Singtel users oly so I cannot use it.
Only 1 request, stop asking to increase fare every year and buck up on the frequency and condition of the buses.
I have been a Hubber for sometime now and I am happy to say that I made the right choice to sign up with them.
MaxOnline for me is really good and cheap. They had been giving us more bandwidth from time to time as well. I seldom had any problem with connection.
I hooked it up to a wireless router so that I can use my laptop anywhere in my flat and it proved to be good. I mainly use it for work and school wise and dun really play online games with it. So to me the speed is really more then enough.
Being a Hubber I got 10% discount some more. So I really find it a good deal!
