1 Review for “Orient Cruise Cafe (Harbourfront) ” - Restaurants
94
Tends to get a headache whenever i see too much people queuing for food. But guess only good food will attract lots of customer. dilemma right? hahahahaha... initially, just wanted to have a simple dinner at the food court, but out of a sudden it seems overwhem with people. (people going for weekend cruise)
In the end, i decided not to squeese with the crowd and went upstairs searching for a place to have quiet meal. Then did i saw this Orient Cruise cafe located at the third level of the harbourfront centre.
Well, though the signboard has written it as a cafe, you basically will not find any servers greeting you as you enter their store. Why is it so, you may ask? This is because they are on a self service practice. Even, the food that you would like to eat, you will have to queue it up yourself and buy them.
Their varieties of food is not really that much, basically it includes mixed rice (you get to choose you own side dish like vegetables, meat, etc), mee siam, mee rubus and laksa. Not really much to choose right?
Was not very impressed with their mee siam thou. Firstly, its definitely their lack of ingredients. Basically, you can only find one egg, 3 small cubes of tau pok and whole chunk of bee hoon. I though perhaps their mee siam may taste great despite their lack of ingredients. But im very disappointed when their bee hoon taste like rubber bands. :(
Next important stuff for a good mee siam, its their mee siam sauce. For me, i think that good mee siam sauce should have a not too sweet and not too salty kind of taste. (just right is the key word). However, i feel this mee siam sauce is too salty and it lacks the peanut taste that most of the mee siam have. Makes me drink quite abit of water after that.
Tasted their laksa too. The first thing that i wan to comment is the pool of red chilli oil floating on the top of the laksa. Makes me feel like i am drinking oil instead? However, it has definitely much more ingredients than the mee siam, with all its fish cake and beansprouts. hahaha... Taste wise, nothing fanastic i guess.
This shop can gets rather crowd during peak hours. Mixed rice is definitely the most popular item for its customers, judging from the people over there. However, it may not be a good choice to bring my mee siam fanatics to try it here.
