Tim’s Cafe And Restaurant

Started not long ago, Tim's Restaurant and Cafe serves typical western food (think steak, fish 'n' chips, etc.), and other courses. Although they mentioned 'Nepalese cuisine', I do not really see much of it that is really special, just a few items on the menu.

Food is decent though, and steaks come with a baked potato with toppings for you to choose from, much like what you see in Jack's Place. Servings are of decent sizes too, and prices are comparable to a HDB-estate stall. (I still find UNO steakhouse cheaper anyway.) Taste-wise, not bad, and I like their black pepper sauce (in their steak or chicken chop) for the kick it gives.

Service is rather good, with small group of staff that pays attention to details right down to arranging the salt and pepper on the table.

Being near SPH and the Yellow Pages office, this place tends to get crowded with office-goers during lunch hours on weekdays. Other than that, getting a place in this two-unit outlet isn't too much of a problem.

Worth a try if you happen to pass by, but nothing to shout about, nor the need to travel across the island. For someone living just a few blocks away, it's good enough.

[Edit on 07/01/2008, 12.30pm] Managed to get some prices: Main courses start at $5, with an option to get a value meal (tea/coffee with dessert and soup of the day) at only $2.80. Combos would cost above $10, usually around $15.

And oh, I almost forgot. No service charge and GST at all. So what you see is what you pay!
