The quality of scrambled egg was good & the toast was puffy with crispy layer 🍳🍞👍🏼 Satay noodles was quite salty.BBQ Pork was delicious! 😋 But was disappointed there were only 4 slices 🥲 Also the service we waited 20 minutes for the bbq rice to arrive. We wanted to order directly but the lady insisted we use the app. It took time as she taught us but we didn’t understand why we couldn’t order directly even we were speaking Cantonese.🤷🏻‍♀️Anyway, good quality food but not for quantity especially for a filling meal. Ambience was quiet & place was clean …Read More

Their fish fillet is quite big which is good value for money & not greasy! Appreciate the fact that there is an option to add $15 for oatmeal. 🌾 Bowl which it was served was quite big, good for sharing. Scrambled egg was milky 🍳👍🏼 Milk tea was not served sweet or too creamy which is great as you can add sugar if you want. Overall just spent $103 for 2 people.…Read More

Waited for an hour but it was worth the wait, didn’t feel long because I can't believe there’s finally a branch around the neighborhood! 🔸 EEL CREAM CHEESE SUSHI 🍣 🧀Another sushi chain restaurant to have this was disappointed it disappeared from their menu. When I saw this, I was happy that I ordered 2 😝 It was good value for the money $27 because the eel was big & appreciated jow the cream cheese is on the side which gives you flexibility how you’d like to eat the sushi! It was amazing! 😋🤩 Eel was soft, yet sweet and the cheese was just the right amount for the whole portion! 🔸 PUMPKIN TEMPURA 🍤The pumpkin was firm & not soggy. The crisp as well was just right. Waited 20 minutes for it though but it was served hot & crispy. I suggest ordering this first as they arrive late makes u full. The portion was a lot for one person because they actually serve a generous amount of them in big sizes. Good value for money as it was just $12 👍🏼🔸 SASHIMI & OTHER SUSHI 🍣Sashimi was okay. Amount of it was good as it was just $37. Yet, the variety wasn’t particularly my favorite combo. As for the rest of the sushi, they were fresh and definitely worth the value! 🔸 MILLE CREPE CAKE 🍰Their mille crepe cake was so creamy 😋 Definitely must try! It wasn’t too sweet and as we were really full, we chose this dessert as it wasn’t too filling but satisfies any sweet tooth especially by having a lot of fishy flavor still lingering on your palate! Definitely will be our new go to restaurant! But might come around 8 pm next time to avoid the long queue as there isn't anymore queue when we came out that time. …Read More

This has been our go to restaurant as they give a good amount of Hainan Chicken & serve their service at night time is swift & smooth. Also, if you’re juggling between having Laksa or chicken, this is the place to go! They have meal sets that have laksa on the side, which still has a bit of all the filling. Or for the main dish, they could also serve laksa with seafood or chicken. 🔸 LAKSA 🍜🦐The creamy soup and texture was what kept me coming back to this restaurant.😋 The soup wasn’t diluted and even if it was a big bowl of Laksa which I tried the other night, it was still the same quality. It has a spicy sensation but it was just right as it wasn’t too spicy that leaves you quenching your thirst.🌶️👌🏽The texture of the noodles was great! It’s chewy & not soggy which was a great combination to complement the creamy soup. But if you want to have a strong sharp taste of laksa with spice & sour taste, this may not be what you’ll prefer.🔸 HAINAN CHICKEN 🐓 The Hainan Chicken was good value for money as there was a generous amount of them on the plate unlike other restaurants we’ve been to. The sauce to dip was also good although expecting the ginger sauce to be more sharp but it was rather greasy. It didn’t have thick chunky meat cuts and they were boneless too which is just right as when you dip the piece into the sauces, it absorbs all the sauces right away and saturates into the oil rice.👌🏽😄🔸 PANDAN RICE w/ BEEF 🍚🌾Ordered pandan rice with chicken. The rice didn’t have the coconut taste and it was a little too grainy. The beef brisket has a nice texture but the sauce was a little too dry. 🥲 I wouldn’t recommend this is if you want to have a more flavourful & infusion of coconut taste 🥥…Read More

It was exciting to see a new branched in Sai Wan Ho so we wanted ti grab a quick lunch to try the quality of sushi.🔹SUSHI VARIETY🍣Ordered, tuna, sashimi salmon and the salmon sushi roe. Quality of sushi is better than other branches where the salmon seemed like to just come out unthawed from the fridge. It was thick cut & tender. The presentation of the salmon sashimi was neat with a lot of radish. 🔹CHEESE MOCHI 🧀🍡Also tried the Cheese Mochi for the person. It was quite greasy but the crispy layer was nice. Lots of cheese leaking out as soon as you have a bite but expect the mochi to drip and get floppy as it is soaked in oil. Size is too big I think for mochi. There were 2 pieces but even one piece was a little too much for one person. Yummy & interesting concept but size a little too big.Service was efficient & staff was helpful so satisfied overall. Will definitely come back again 😊👍🏼…Read More

🔶 JAPANESE THEMED DESSERT CORNER🎏🎎Went here a few times and was surprised by the amazing variety & their creative Japanese corner. Since our friend whom the celebration was for has a sweet tooth from Japan, this was the perfect place to bring him to indulge in a variety if sweetness & have a taste of Japan, his hometown 🇯🇵🥰The sakura Mt.Fuji Cake🌸 🗻 was very artistic and it tasted very creamy with icing that was not overwhelmingly sweet! The mochi was the the highlight for us because there were a few flavors to choose from. The custard too was worth trying, my only regret is I didn’t have my second round and it ran out really quick! 🔸 THE BBQ/HIT FOOD CORNER 🍖🥙The bbq or fried food was served hot all the time as they wouldn’t pile too much and get cold so I was happy to always get crispy skewers and tempura. The foie gras was great as it was not just served as a meat but we had to line up for it with a card. It was worth the wait as it was served with a very nice presentation. The Oyster cheese was a must try! The oysters surprisingly were big and the cheese covering it had the eight saltiness not to overwhelm the original essence of the oyster even if it was cooked. Practically ate this the whole time 🤭🔸 THE SASHIMI COLD CUTS CORNER 🍣🍱The sashima were all fresh and surprisingly good quality and thick cuts. Went back for the salmon, tuna and hamashi a few times as it was delish & fresh! I thought beating the “Taiko” to show that the corner was ready gave the whole buffet experience a very Japanese vibe. Perfect ambience to satisfy craving for a Japanese trip especially during the pandemic. …Read More

There were no pizzas when we came which I believe they could have told us before we were seated inside. On top of that, we chose a dessert but didn’t realize they took the menu before we ordered the add on $30 dessert lunch. It would be nice if they were able to ask if we have anymore orders before it was taken away.THE GRILLED US PRIME RIBEYE STEAK 🥩 Ordered Ribeye Steak medium rare. It was just the right cut and texture. The sauce and amount of salad spread out was just right to make it less gamey but also enjoy the texture of the meat as the cut wasn’t very thick so it absorbed the sauce given really well. The portion & quality was good value for moneyBLACK TRUFFLE SPAGHETTI 🍝 The truffle wasn’t as strong as we expected it to be but it was okay as we had ordered steak which was already full of flavors. Texture of pasta was al dente, just not the strong aroma & taste of truffle, the kind of earthly punch if you want to have bolder flavor. SinceThere was a generous amount of arugula on top as well which I didn’t mind as I didn’t have salad on the side. EGG WAFFLES FONDUE 🫕 We were craving for egg waffles & ordered this and dipping it on the fondue was definitely a unique experience experience! Was a bit skeptical how it would work as egg waffles alone has a rich smooth texture. Surprisingly, the custard was creamy so dipping the egg waffle pieces soaked up all the custard right away. As soon as the egg waffles got colder, it lost the crisps that gives it texture so highly suggest to dip it as soon as the dessert as served. Overall, the food was okay and we spent about $600 for 2 lunch sets including the salad bar for one of them. The interesting variety in the menu made us intrigued and to come back & try. …Read More

Wouldn’t imagine to find such a gem in a busy street of TST! Not only was the retro vibe, vintage paintings and furnishing that contributed to the good atmosphere but the friendly staff as well. I came here both on a busy day & on a weekend where it was less crowded but they have maintained a very good quality of service We ordered “Nasi Lemak Beef Rendang”. It was amazing!!! The pandan coconut rice with the shrimp paste was an unexpected flavor. The shrimp paste wasn’t too salty so it perfectly complemented the beef with rice. The beef shredded right away as soon as you cut it which was just the right texture. I’ve tried coconut pandan rice before but this was by far the best I have tried! Definitely recommend! 😋 The Penang Hokkien Prawn Mee’s soup base was nothing ordinary. It was a perfect mixture of seafood which complemented our order. The pork belly was scrumptious, just the right cut which absorbed the soup. Amazing! The portion was also more than we expected as it looks rather small in the picture. The “Teh Tarik” is a must try!!! Creamy, strong yet amazing texture. It wasn’t too sweet as well which I preferred as our meals were already rich in flavor. If you’re a tea lover, this is definitely worth the try! I’d go back here in this restaurant again and again and won’t ever ge tired. Vibe-wise, service as well as food quality & variety, it is definitely worth it for the value!! Since then, this has been my go to place to bring friends over or even have a short catch up for the above reason. A hidden gem indeed! 💎…Read More

I’ve been to various Brick Lane Branches but what makes this unique is it’s at a busy neighborhood but tucked in at a quiet corner of the street with plenty of natural light & view of trees and passersby. The scones was okay. It was rather dry and expecting a little more moist in texture. The highlight was the creme brûlée as the sweetness and texture above was just the right sugar crust needed The red velvet cake has just got the right moisture and sweetness which was the highlight of the whole tea set. 🍰Overall, it was good value for the money and we couldn’t even finish the food so it’s definitely good for 2 people. The variety was also more than we expected so it was definitely worth for a nice afternoon catchup with a friend. …Read More

The restaurant itself was a perfect choice to celebrate or wedding anniversary. Wanted somewhere intimate, quiet and outdoor where we can just enjoy the night so it was just what we wanted as we have the breeze from the sea close by and the restaurant was tucked away at the very end of the promenade. The swing seats was on a first come first serve basis and since we came on a weekday, we didn’t have trouble getting the spot even on an early evening 😄We had the seafood tower. Expecting more variety in it but the quality of the lobster and oyster was great! We ordered a few appetizers including the tofu. Felt that it was a little overcharge for the portion. However, the steak was good & got a medium rare which was delish! As for the dessert, we ordered the Lemon curd pavlova. We thought the design was really exquisite with the “Happy Anniversary” greeting. The playful plating presentation was just as playful as you eat it together with a surprising twist of bold color coming out as you pop the pavlova. It was slightly tangy yet sweet & the creamy texture was just right amount to keep the balance of lemon taste in place. Savoring the explosion of flavors kept our palates dancing! (while swinging enjoying the breeze)It was truly a cherry on top with right vibe we wanted for our celebration 🥰The staff was friendly and service was good. A very lovely memorable anniversary celebration 💕 …Read More

A wide selection of meat, different variety of cuts just enough to keep you your taste buds satisfied but not overwhelming to make you feel full or your plate filled with chunk of meat allowing you to savor the grilled taste of the meat! There is a paper sign you can flip to indicate “No more Thank You” Generally I feel full eating meat easily,but I felt the salad bar variety and cold cuts still was filling enough which makes it a good value for money. Love their desserts as some were Brazilian desserts that you could not find in other buffet although I was expecting more variety. A very tropical vibe & decor to bask in. …Read More

Hunting for a good reasonable Pad Kra Pao and this was what we’ve opt for. Unlike the other Pad Kra Pao we had around the neighborhood where the egg is too cooked, here it was runny and just right portion for a lunch set. …Read More

A very unique cafe that gives you a taste of Japan! Very nice coffee & food but most of all the interior indoor and outdoor wraps the whole experience to a complete package that is a must try! It was in the middle of 4th wave pandemic when we went here but this cafe’s vibe brought back nostalgic memories of my time in Japan, Kyoto. Lovely walls & retro vibe.…Read More

One  of  the  creamiest  curry  I’ve  ever  tried!  Tne  ox-toungue  has  just the  right  tenderness  that  sips  in  the  curry  sauce & they gave generous amounts or portion in one dish! There were 4 pieces of them which was unlike the other chann chaan teng’s I have been to. Also, a very friendly team in this branch of Kam Kee even at busy hour! Worth the try! …Read More

It was a fun place to celebrate! The windows gave way to plenty of natural light and the interior was very playful yet charming which matches its crazy mix of flavors especially the drinks! The Dirty Yam Latte was definitely worth the try! Would definitely recommend the Tacos as well as Buratta Cheese pizza. The portion of the pizza was rather smaller than expected but it was filling so it’s fine. Overall would recommend this place 👍🏼 …Read More
