I've been here a few times and never wrote about it!
The 2nd floor is a great place to just chill and enjoy the music but the drawback is that there aren't any seats and it's constantly crowded. Not to mention it's easier to get in if you just buy a bottle. Just to skip the long queue. Being there early means you get seats... and also get eyed by later patrons cos they really want your seat. My friend went in super early just to reserve seats for us. The drinks are ok, not too diluted and I guess reasonably priced for a bar. I enjoy the live music though I'm not really a fan of that genre.
The ground floor is more for the soccer crowd and those who want to eat. Though it's quieter here but not quite the place for conversation either as it's quite cramped with people mostly.

Great place to unwind. I love thursdays and saturdays for my favourite band 'The Unxpected' plays on that day.
If you're into live music, head up to the second level and be immersed by the great music. If you prefer watching soccer or just being able to have a chit chat with your friends, you're better off at the first floor.
Top fave snacks: Pizza, chicken wings and calamari are to die for.
Love the place! Do come early to get good seats infront of the band and to enjoy the happy hour!

A friend and I had the set lunch at Lawry's last year. We went there filled with anticipation and left with a frown.
The signature spinning salad was fab of course but the main course left much to be desired. It was served luke warm and the sauces had overwhelmed the taste of the steak. It wasn't medium rare to me and was more of medium well. The steak tasted dry. Left me very disappointed for I went there for the steak.
Desserts were ordinary and nothing special. Ambience is top notch of course.
Well, head down to Lawry's if you're there for the ambience but not for the food.
Is it a case of another set lunch/dinner which killed the food?
I'm not sure. But I don't think I'll be giving Lawry's a second chance.

If you're intending to have a meal at Astons, I would advice you to queue up an hour before the appointed dinner time.
The meals are cheap BUT there's a price to pay for it being so cheap.
And here are the negative points:
- Long waiting time
- Noisy environment. Not an ideal first date venue.
Positive points:
- Similiar side dishes as Kenny Rogers
- Cheap
Great for students or people on a budget that is if you can stand the waiting time.

The Prime Society is located with the rest of the rather "atas" eateries at Dempsey Hill.
Classy as it may seems, PLEASE drive or else your date may suffer from mosquito bites or aaching feet by the time you manage to hail a cab and yes, your truly was a victim.
My date and I ordered the Christmas Eve set and we were extremely disappointed.
How so? The food tasted alright but it was nothing spectacular. The steak wasn't bloody enough for me. (yes, another bad pun)
From the amount we paid, it definitely did not justify the items received. However I am still going to give The Prime Society another chance. Perhaps it'll prove better when I order from the normal menu?
Hopefully.

I have heard about Ice Cream Chefs from my friends for a very long time and decided to check out the place finally.
A few plus and minus points here.
- Location is very "ulu". Even to me, an east sider, I don't think I'll be able to find the place unless I drive.
- The cafe is rather small. If you have a big group of friends, perhaps you can sit on the sidewalk outside.
- Due to it's rather cramped space, you may have to strain your ears to hear your date.
- An interesting concept. If you crave the weirdest flavour, here's a good place to go.
- I'm extremely fascinated by the "cold teppanyaki". I had cornflakes icecream! How cool (yes, bad pun!) is that?!
- Friendly service. The staff waited patiently when fickle-minded me was deciding on what to order.
- They allow photography and videography!
My conclusion?
I'll be back! If someone drives me there. :P

I like Plaza Market Cafe's wide selection of dessert, the fresh thick slices of sashimi, the DIY salad bar, its Peranakan dishes and its mean local soup!
I patronise it often because of a special one-for-one promotion with my Amex card. hehe.....
Must trys!
The popular and super delicious Durian Pengat! A huge, chilled pot of it!
Its awesome Bread Pudding which is available only during the Lunch Buffet.
Sorbets!! Made in its own kitchen, some of the sorbets are so delicious.
Try its daily boiled local soup. Its Pork Maw or Kiam Chye (Salted Vegetable) Soup tastes heavenly! The soup was exactly how my Mom and I would boil it. So flavourful! It has the porky aroma! That's what you get for boiling pork bones for hours! I drink 2 - 3 bowls each time. It not only warms my stomach, it warms my soul.
Service is friendly and pretty good. Empty plates are quickly cleared away and they do not add hot water to your used tea bag!
Some restaurants' idea of refilling a cup of tea is to add hot water to the used tea bag it! Delifrance is guilty of that. I hate it! It's like drinking longkang water.

You must be patient if you want to eat at this stall. I was surprised to see the long queue in front of the stall. The queue on a Sunday morning (11 am) was long, I cannot imagine what it would be like on weekdays!
My son had to queue for more than 30 mins. He was quite lucky then, the guy behind him ordered 10 bowls! *faints* hehe.....
It's not like you don't have to pay money lor. I find the prices here expensive. A bowl of Pomfret Fish Slices with Prawns (S$10), S$5 for a small bowl of Batang Fish soup and S$7 for a Pomfret soup (small).
The soup is clear, very flavourful and the ingredients fresh!

I bought 2 earrings and loved them to bits! The reply is prompt since I caught Bobo online. The packaging is rather secure and neatly wrapped.
The prices are pretty affordable and each item has their own names.
The site is easy to navigate until you realised that all the earrings and necklaces are in their respective pages. Not that it's a bad thing but once there are more items for sale, the scrolling does get longer.

An entry long overdue. Had lunch at Eighteen Chefs with a few friends one weekday afternoon. What's interesting and noble (to a certain extent) about Eighteen Chefs is that it takes in ex convicts and delinquents and helps them turn over a new leaf by training them in the food business. Its owner and head chef, Benny Se Teo, who was a former drug addict, trained at Jamie Oliver's London restaurant, Fifteen.
Located at a corner of Eastpoint just next to the POSB, Eighteen Chefs has a rather simple interior which can seat up to about 50 pax. This place runs on a self service system hence no service charge is levied. To order your food, simply fill up a form and bring it to the counter to make payment. Your orders will then be served to you shortly.
Baked Rice with Creamy White Sauce & Chicken Slices ($8.90) - You get to choose what kind of sauce you want for your baked rice as well as the ingredients that go into it. Honestly, the baked rice I had (see above) was decent but nothing to shout about. While the cheese was nice and thick, I found the rice a little too bland for my liking and the cream sauce did little to help. But at $8.90, its relatively cheaper and quality is slightly better than the ones they serve at Swensens.
Eighteen Funky Strawberry ($5.80) - $5.80 for 4 scoops of ice cream served with strawberries, hazelnuts and oreo biscuits - now that should be excellent value for money really. It would have been better if the strawberries had been fresher and if the ice cream had been been richer. My guess is that they gave us tub ice cream from the supermarket.
A decent lunch for 3 inclusive of a dessert to share cost just over $35, which is still pretty acceptable for the quality. Service was excellent and even though the food wasn't exactly stellar, I'll be back to try other stuff. After all, life is all about second chances isn't it?
