The place is so small that it does not look inviting at all, espcially I am quite big sized. Seem like they try to squeeze in a lot of things. They should really do something about it! If ppl cannot go in and shop, then it defeats the purpose of shopping alr. Hee.....
Been there on Sat for some shopping and of cos my fav meatball and chicken wings!
Was there with a group of frens and decided to head Ikea and hang out!
I have not eaten their meatballa nd chicken wings fr the longest time and had been craving them forever! Hee....
1 thing I dun like about the cafe is, the place is always forever packed and it is hard to get seats. Like in food court, you have to fight for seats and hope that the table you are stalking out will be free soon!
Since there is a lot of ppl as well, the queue there will be long for food but the service is fast enough so that no need to wait for long time to my fav meatballa and chicken wings.
The meatball is again flawless with huge chucks of potatoes, their special gravy and thei cranberry jam. All mixed together to make their meatballs so special and tasty. Yum Yum!
Thier chicken wings are baked I think) to prefection. Tender yet juicy at the same time! The seasoning is also done to prefection and it can be eaten without any sauces at all!
I always can finished 15 meatballs and 6 chicken wings at one go since I seldom go there!
Of course if you have their membership card, you can have 2 free drinks everyday! They also got specials everyday where they offer local delights!
If only they can increase the size of the cafe! That will be great!
Went there to have dinner with a few close frens for dinner yesterday. As usual ard dinner time there will be always a queue in front of the resturant. So we waited around for 20 mins (Yes the place was full before dinner time!), before we are seated.
When we joined the queue, the waitress will hand us a copy of their order form and we can start to order our food alr. A good way to shorten the waiting time when we are seated.
The place is nicely decorated, with a feel that we are in the wood of some forest. Got the feel of we are sitting in the mitddle of a pavailion having dinner. However I do find it a bit cramped as again they tried to squezze in as many tables into the small place they have.
So what food we ordered? (Sorry too bz eating and forget to take pics Hee....)
1. Samsui Chicken. Their star dish and one dish that I will never get sick of. Haa.... The chicken is tender and boneless. The way to eat it was to put a piece of chicken in the large piece of lettuce, then add in lots and lots of their special mixed ginger! The ginger taste mixed with the chicken and the cruchy lettuce makes a prefect combo!
2. Begger Ribs. It is pork ribs that are BBQ. The ribs are a bit in the small side. The pic that they showen on the poster seem much bigger. Hee... However the taste of the rib was sweet and juicy. The meat also seperates off the rib without much effort.
3. Spicy prawn tofu. This one comes with a slightly spciy but thick sauce that definitely goes good with white rice! The prawns are big and fresh! The tofu is tender yet not mushy. Although I ordered in small size, the portion came in a pretty much generous portion.
4. Sambal Kang Kong. Well it is fresh and cruchy. However not as spicy as expected.
5. Soup of the day. Hmm... the soup is winter melon, carrots plus pork ribs. It is good and can taste that they did not sue any MSG inside the soup. However, it seem like everytime I go, the soup of the day is the same.
6. Steamed rice with chicken. This i ssomething like the steam bamboo rice. The chicken and mushroom are tender. The juice of both are sipped into the rice making the rice more fragent and bale to eat on its own!
The service there is much prompt, systematic and good. The food also came out pretty fast, in about 10 mins, all our dishes came alr.
Something funny happen, which I consider it good, we orginally order 7 dishes, the waitress when confirming the dishes with us, suggested that we ordered too much for a grp of 3, so she suggested that we take one dish away. This turn out to be good as we barely finished all the dishes in the end. Haa....
Spent ard $83 on the meal, making 3 people very happy with the dinner!
I have tried other outlets as well. Seem like all outlets provides almost of the same quaility of food and service as well.
Been there only once or twice. Although they serves a variety of food there, so called Jap Fusion food, find their food below average. I could have got better jap food from the food court upastairs.
Like what genzo had mentioned, they work on a self service method, so have to go to the counter to order. So they better dun charge me any service charge. The food is served in a prompt manner.
The aunties there also very hardworking once you have finished the food, they will clear the tray from the table. Telling you in a silent way that:" You have finished eating. Time to get out of here!"
Dun think I will go and eat there if given the choice.
The flea market jz happens out PF (China Sq). It alwasy attracts a crowd of people to go there see see look look.
Since I am there on Sundays for gym, I will walk around to see if there is anything good to buy.
Most of the people that set up stalls there are old people with a wide variety of both old (very old!) stuff or slightly newer things. Like Claudia had mentioned, you can find all the old toys, CD, even clothings there. Mostly 2nd hand stuff.
I am always on the look out for old toys, especially those that I had been playing since I was young. Those really bring back good memories.
Like all flea markets (I think), you can bargain with the seller for good price.
I prefer to go Vivocity outlet anytime!
