From only 50 cents a bowl to the present 2 dollars per bowl, I would say that the flavour of the gravy is still the same, though the quantity also more or less remained, perhaps with a couple more cockles.
This laksa I guess was even more famous than Katong laksa during its mayhem days in the past. It was known then as "kor Kor" laksa. The reason was that the bowls used were those chinaware type of bowls having the picture of a cockerel on it I was told. Nt sure if that's the truth though.
Eating the laksa requires nothing more than a soup. WIth each scoop of the laksa, you will find a mixture of cockles, thick bee hoon, gravy, beansprouts and corriander. That taste was simply superb. And even though I am not one who has a particular crave for laksa, I nvr fail to empty the whole bowl, gravy included whenever I eat at the stall or packet home.
So do give it a try and you will see the difference between it and Katong laksa

There were 3 sizes of pizzas available: Regular, medium and large. The small was cut into 4 slices, medium 6 slices and large 8 slices. The best thing was that for the medium and large-sized pizzas, you could actually order 2 different flavours in one pizza. This was good as it allowed patrons to have a taste of different flavours in just one pizza instead of two. So me and my fren ordered two flavours: Chicken Royale & The Carnivore.
The Chicken Royale ingredients consisted of Creamy sauce, chicken, onions, green capsicum, pineapples, mozzarella, cheddar while The Carnivore ingredients were BBQ sauce, chicken, ground beef, beef bacon, turkey ham, beef pepperoni, prawns, squid, mozzarella.
The taste was quite good, and the crust was thin and crispy and we left the shop feeling quite satisfied.
The 2nd time round, I decided to bring my gf to eat at the same place as I felt that she would like it. So again we ordered the same combination for the pizza as well as a seafood platter as an appetizer. The pizza was still as good as the previous time while the platter was good but nothing fantastic to comment abt.
Therefore, I would say that the place is well worth the money and do be mindful that cos' the place is quite small, you may have to wait a while before getting a seat. Reservations can be made, but as I did nt get a namecard from the shop, it is nt reflected in the biz info as yet. Will try to update it soonest possible. Meanwhile do drop by and check out the place.

Therefore, you can expect a shorter queue as well as avoiding seeing or hearing the famous statement such as "Despite doubling our staff and increaing our production efficiency , we may nt be able to serve you promptly as desired, blar blar blar", by another donut franchise. Haha.
As for the donuts themselves, the flavours are more or less the same as that of Donut Factory. And as what Dilly had mentioned, they put their donuts out on display, thu making them cold and not so visually appealing as seeing it coming fresh out of the oven.
Overall, the donuts are just so-so and the only plus point is being the relatively shorter queue.

Me and my friends ordered a couple of dishes to share among us. Our order included Fritto Misto (a seafood platter with crab cakes, prawn tails), Pollo E Peperoni pizza (consisting of tomato, mozzarella, chicken, bell pepper and basil) and Al Crudo pizza ( consisting Rucola, Parma Ham, Tomato and Mozzarella Cheese). The taste of the platter and pizzas were really quite nice. The crust of the pizza were not too thick and were done crisp and not heavy on the flour. The ingredients were fresh and juicy.
The cafe is famous for its wide range of desserts such as homemade gelato, pastries and celebratory cakes. So we decided to try some of the pastries out. We ordered a total of 5 different pastries, which is called Pasticceria in Italian.
They were Diplomatica, Musa, Cassata Siciliana, Soffiato , and Tiramisu. All of them really tasted good and nt very sweet as well. Recalling all thi smakes me drool!! *Slurp*
So for those who are more health conscious. do not worry!!!
There are many more different types of pastries that I will go back to try as well as the gelato. All in all, I would recommend this place for people who have a weakness for nice pastries.

As for the food, my personal favorite are the Billy's BBQ Buffalo Ribs, Honey Stung Crispy Golden Chicken, Yin & Yang Burger, American Fries and Onio Rings. The taste is good and value for money. Also, do order the lemon tea as it comes in a min pitcher which can be shared among two people.
I would say that the place has good food for money and it is very accessible as well, since The Central is directly above Clarke Quay MRT (NEL ). So do go there and give it a try.
