Breeks! @ Harbourfront

Posted by CyberTron on Jul 25, 2008 2:38AM
Came here for dinner today as my colleague wanted to get something at harbour front. Decided to settle for dinner here as it was getting late.

I ordered a half barbeque chicken ($15.90) and my colleague ordered a baked dory ($15.90) . We also ordered buffalo wings ($5.50) to share. I also top up mine for $1 for an extra soup of the day (I think was minestrone, though I was told it was tomato).

Anyway, the food came rather fast (my friend went up to buy her stuff and before she came back, I've already finish my soup, and the buffalo wings and her mains was already served.

Food wise, I would say they are pretty ok, nothing exceptional, probably similar to what you can get like from swensens or jack's place maybe? My colleague did not like the baked dory, though I find it was pretty ok as the dory was not soggy or tough or dry. Price wise, I think it is pretty reasonable like what you would expect in a restaurant like this. Good thing to note this place serve ice water for free too, so you are not compelled to spend extra on drinks if you dun need.

Service wise was pretty ok. During the state of the dinner while I was helping my colleague to clear the table while she took the photos, I accidentally spilled the ice water. The waitress saw it and quickly us clean up and pour us a new glass of water. Though the waitress serving us might be a little inexperience, but can feel she is trying her best to serve us.

Overall, I think there's still areas where they can improve on their food, maybe something that can stand out from the rest of the choices we are spoilt with.

    Thai Food Review again ! :P
    Decided to give a try to this thai restaurant after my colleague recommended it. We ordered mango salad, Tom Yam Seafood, Chicken with basil leaves & mushrooms. The food was quite nice especially the Chicken with basil leaves and the mushrooms, but i still prefer the mango salad and the tom yam soup from the Nong Khai Beer House @ golden mile. :)

    Overall, i feel the their food is quite authentic. service is very good.The Waiters/waitresses were patient, helpful and quite attentive.

    Total damage for the meal was around $70 but got 10% discount for citibank cardholder and they gave me 4 more discount vouchers.
    Not bad :D

    Down South Steaks

    While I was on a project in Alabama I was taking a short cut to take my wife shopping at Colombus Ga. As we neared the on ramp to I 285 a wonderful odor entered our car. We were so overcome with the smell of grilling steak that we had to find out where this was coming from. Surely not from the small plain looking cinderblock building sitting at the intersection. But lo and behold this was the place. This is the best steak I have ever put in my mouth. Since I moved from the area I haven't ordered steak from anywhere else. This is prime cut meat that you would pay $50+ for but cost considerable less. All steaks are 16oz except the fillet which is 8 or 12. No knife needed for the fillet. If your in the area stop by and enjoy, but make sure you get there early. Don't be fooled by looks because it's in a cinder block building next to a cow pasture but you only need to follow your nose because the smell will make your mouth water.

    Claypot Rice @ Lucky Plaza Asian Food Mall

    Posted by CyberTron on Jul 24, 2008 1:13AM
    After just have a pretty good claypot rice yesterday, I had claypot rice again today. Actually I wanted to ordered the chef's special claypot noodle, but the auntie heard wrongly, and though I ordered the chef's special claypot rice. Anyway, I never bothered to change the order so decided to give it a try. Anyway, I'm not really a fan of claypot rice to start with, but yet I find the one at Clementi and Golden Mile was very good, so I was wondering what to expect from the food court version of the claypot rice. Well, at $4.50, I would not say it is expensive consider its location, but definitely, can't compare the value to those at the 2 places mentioned above. The food wise, it is basically cooked rice with some chicken put in a claypot and heated. Well, it taste average, with the chicken not that tender, and the rice a bit on the hard side. Overall, dun think I will be going back to this stall anytime soon (in the first place I hardly order claypot rice at food court).

    Posted by SP on Jul 24, 2008 12:51AM
    Went to this restaurant to celebrate my fren's birthday.
    We ordered Hong kong style steam seabass, Tom Yam Seafood Soup, Scallop Baby Kai Lan and Lemon Chicken.
    Frankly Speaking, i dun think the food was really very nice, quite dissapointed with it.
    Think i will prefer golden mile thai food than this. The bill came at $73++ and i think the price is quite expensive.

    However, this restaurant was crowded, we need to queue and waited for about 30 minutes to get a seat.

    Ichiban Sushi (IMM)

    Posted by SP on Jul 23, 2008 10:50PM
    Was there for lunch with my parents last weekend.
    We ordered the hotate cheese yaki (scallop with cheese), ebiko sushi, tori chez katsu and bento salmon.
    I like the hotate cheese yaki, it was very nice. The ebiko sushi, salmon and katsu were just average, nothing special. :P

    However the service was not very good. As we had our lunch quite late, so the restaurant had only a few customers at that time, but the food was slow to be served. Besides, it was not easy to catch the attention of the waitresses.

    Total damage was around $70++ . I think the price is still acceptable as the serving was quite big especially the katsu set and the salmon bento.

    The Sweet Stone Parad'Ice

    Posted by CyberTron on Jul 22, 2008 10:37PM
    Actually I saw this stall at Old Airport Road over the weekend. But after my $5 char kway teow, I could not bring myself to indulge in somemore sinful chocolate desserts.

    Anyway, was a surprised we saw this just 2 stall beside the claypot rice we had for dinner. After dinner, me and my colleague decided to go upstairs buy some stuff and then came back for some desserts. We order a set A ($2.50), which came with a waffle and a cup of belgium chocolate (I presume is belgian chocolate though I could be wrong :) ). The chocolate was really good, a slight bitter taste and not too sweet, and I love it! The waffle was warm too, and is perfect when dip in the hot chocolate! After we finish the waffle, I decided not to leave the leftover chocolate to waste and tear a small piece of the styroform cup and use it scope up the chocolate to finish them. Wish they provided spoon by default! :P Overall, having a sweet tooth, I love it and can't wait to go try out the fondue soon! Only downside.... I think the price is a bit expensive, but I guess belgian chocolate dun come cheap? :)

    Oh ya.... just to add, this place actually have a loyalty programme, lucky draw and even a facebook group!!!

    Golden Mile Claypot Rice

    Posted by CyberTron on Jul 22, 2008 10:26PM
    As my colleague had to meet someone at Lavender today, we decided to check out the claypot rice, which was mentioned quite frequently on blogs and forums. When we were there 6+, there were not many people there, and our claypot rice was pretty served immediately. Not sure if someone ordered it earlier and cancelled their order, or uncle decided to give us something he prepared in advanced.

    The claypot rice was not very very hot, so I assume it gotta be prepare a bit earlier or something. Anyway, didn't have to wait 45min mentioned elsewhere, I think it was a good compromise. :) The claypot rice here is comparable to the one in Clementi. What I like about this is it comes with vege and more salted fish inside, though it would be great if it goes some boiled soup to go with it. The chicken was tender, and even the breast meat taste great!

    One thing to note is that the stall is located very near the washroom, and from where we sat, I could smell the detergent from where we were sitting, which might be a bad thing. So advise if ya are there, try find a sit further away from the toilet. :) Else, I think the food is great and price is pretty good too! So those who crave for claypot rice in the east, you might want to check out this place if you have not.
