    Enjoy the concept and puts the fun back into eating sizzling food from a hot plate. The portion is decently good and well food is yummy though you tend to smell like grilled food when you step out of the restaurant.

    Enjoy this spacious restaurant tremendously, with plenty of seats and prompt service. So what we did was to queue up to order and make payment and while in the queue, a staff approached us to ask how many seats we needed and proceeded to reserve that for us. While we made the order, we gave our table card to the staff so to ensure food promptly delivered.

    We sat next to a pillar which is not exactly very comfy however this pillar is fixed using real red bricks (hard to see this nowadays) and the table is tight when all the food arrived leaving no space for anything else except food and trays.

    Love the concept of the salad in a shaker cup. All you do is to add the sauces and shake to mix it all up. We also love the plenty of sauces to top up as and when you like at your table for your sizzling platter.

    My favourite, the sirloin steak... Good portion and tasty...

    Will be sure to return and bring friends, mostly for dinner as the after meal smell of my clothes makes me wanna go home immediately.

    A cosy cafe that serves super-delicious (macau styled) fast food situated conveniently between the bus interchange and the NEX shopping mall.

    The beautiful Neon signboard coupled by the aroma of fried pork attracted us into this all new cafe. I fell in love with the interior deco which made it looked like a cafe by the street of macau and they even had lamp post for lighting. Like any fast food joints, you may sit freely and ordering can be done at the counter yet food is served by friendly staff and you don't have to pay for service charges. The place is pretty clean and seats are cosy, especially for butt-warmers like me who liked to chat away.

    Ordering was simple and quick with the easy to read sign-board menu and we ordered quite a few signature items which arrived quickly and I must say of a good portion.

    1)Curry FishBall - $4.90 are chewy fresh fishballs soaked in a bowl of curry which i find is more nonya styled curry. I love the milky and tangy taste of the curry and well fish balls are a good pairing.

    2) 猪扒包 (Signature PorkChop Bun) - $6.90 is a good serving of carefully marinated porkchops cooked to its best sandwiched between 2 crispy buns. Tasted like what I ever had in Macau yet not as salty and while i chew on the soft pork chop, the aroma of spices and herbs lingered around even after I've finished. One good porkchop bun i must say...

    3) Polo Pork Chop Bun - $6.90 is as good as the pork chop bun however the sweetish and super soft polo bun made the difference to the entire experience. Interesting combination of savoury and sweet.. delectable....

    4) Macau Chicken Wing Noodles - $7.90 is a combination of specially made chewy noodles with a generous spread of marinated well executed mid part of the chicken wings. I find this dish the best value as its rather filling and have got loads of side ingredients (matter of fact i couldn't quite see the noodles beneath)

    5) SawDust Cake - $3.50 with 2 flavours to choose from, this made an ultimate sweet ending to our lunch. The cake was more ice-creamy then anything with biscuit dust in various layers. Extremely interesting and not too sweet. Its a must try dessert...

    The drinks selection was also good with HongKong styled Milk Teas and coffee and of course a variety of soft drinks. Its a pretty nice place to hang out with friends or if you are looking for a quick meal, this place serves delectable food in a fast pace.

    We love the concept and the food was of good value, not to mention the good taste involved. Staff was attentive and gave good recommendations on our orders. Falling in love with it and will return to enjoy more of these macau styled yummy delights. Really affordable and worth it...

    One of my favourite all new restaurants in Jurong Point, simply because the food is yummy, generous portions and lovely interior design that reminded of a similar jap - western fusion cafe that i loved to hang whenever I am in taichung, taiwan.

    Wall papers that mimick red bricks and wooden furniture that age beautifully with time coupled by wooden booth seats with a menu drawer at the opening end that houses the menus simply made me fall in love with the place. Great for groups of friends to gather for a chit chat while noise containment was pretty okay though I could eves drop on my neighbours, please practice social etiquette by not speaking too rowdily.

    The selection on the menu was really my kind as every dish seemed to appeal to me especially all day breakfast that appeared in an old fashioned plate/bowl with delectable pastries and poached eggs for some however for dinner we decided on the house pasta, a potato salad, cheese fondue and fried chicken.

    The Kabe Pasta was amazingly yummy. Filled up to the brim with spaghetti and loads and loads of ingredient such as egg, sausage, minced meat with tomato based sauce and topped with a ball of cream, it is value for money and had an interestingly big taste.

    The cheese fondue came in a candled pot of melted cheese sauce with a variety of breads to dip in. The melted cheese is a little diluted for my delight however tasted balance and delicious.

    The potato salad is really yummy, cool and refreshing.

    Fried chicken was crispy and of a good size, would recommend to order as you eat, though you have to wait for food preparation because I didn't stick to this rule and had always over ordered because everything on the menu is super yummy and the portion is always generous. You could also make your main a set by adding on a selection of sides like soup and salad, coffee or dessert or even additional noodles for a small fee.

    I was always too ambitious, as such didn't managed to try any desserts which looked mouth watering from the display cabinet next to the counter.

    Service is good, friendly and prompt.

    Will sure to return with or without friends....

    A spanking new cafe located at the iconic shop houses along Tanjong Katong road was sprouting with young patrons from the nearby school munching on fried potatoes and soft serve. While I appreciate the hard metal frames of the industrial themed deco, I was pleasantly distracted by the aroma of freshly baked pastry that made my sweet tooth tingle.

    The menu was interesting... though was a simple one page issue, it was packed with loads of interesting stuffs and I must mention interesting names. The selection was a good choice of appetizers and snacks, mains, a good array of unique desserts (*slurp*) and choice of chilling drinks. So we picked a few and our verdict below...

    1) Oyster Mushroom (Quirky name: Mario Mario) $8 - is a deep fried appetizer, lightweight and crunchy, great to go down with a slush of coke while contributing to the ambient noise with our waggling tongues.

    2) Garlic Wings (Quirky name:Dracular Wings) $12 - indeed made vampires run away from us as the wing is well seasoned, garlicky and savoury with juicy insides... slurplicious.....

    3) Blue Cheese Burger (Quirky name: Blue Moo) $23 - our first mains that made us went gaga.... For blue cheese lover or not, you would love this burger as the minced beef patty well seasoned with blue cheese with a generous portion. Its quite a big burger and we loved it.

    4) Thai Style Chicken (Quirky name: Agogo Chicks) $17 - didn't manage to make us dance the ah go go but our tongue tingled with great joy... Paired with buttery mash and poached veg, this is a very balanced dish and we love the concoction of spice on the chicken.

    5) Coconut Butter Tart $9 - was one of the best tarts i've ever had, the buttery skin with warm gula melaka laced shreds of coconut balanced by a generous dose of soft serve and lemon sauce is simply heavenly... - definitely a must try... one of my favourite.....

    6) Sticky Toffee pudding $9 - is like a date cake yet better... when drizzled with toffee sauce and topped with mix fruits and nuts. The pudding was soft and slightly spongy giving it a fabulous texture while its not too sweet. One of the pretty well executed date cakes I've ever eaten.... and this is also one of the MUST TRYS.. you will get hooked like me.....

    Sure to return especially for fabulous desserts.... Though the appetizers and mains are nice... i'm mostly hooked on the desserts.. thanks to my sweetish dentals......

    Great place to laze and have a cuppa coffee while watching the busy road outside. Place is comfy with plenty of seats for gathering of good friends. Love the windows and the industrialist look, feels relaxing and easy.

    llao llao frozen yoghurt had just got into my list of favourite desserts. Despite the long queue which I quote a friend "is never ending one! You queue, it will move one" is an exclamation of her addiction for the thirst she always have for llao llao, is one dessert you can never get sick of.

    So here we are at this spanking new outlet with the never ending queue, got into the queue with the other excited girls and indecisive men considering the toppings and sauces they want on their froyos.... The selection menu is a simple choice of sizes and ready mix of concocted sundaes... So it could be confusing and I say... forget about the rest just go for the standard S, M, L, sizes where you get a standard 1,2 or 3 toppings according to sizes.

    However watching people walk out with these plastic cups filled with colourful toppings made me wonder and alas... i ordered a SANUM which gave me a choice of a crunch, 3 toppings and a sauce sandwiched in yummy frozen yogurt.

    My favourite combination would be:
    Crunch: Caramelized SunFlower seeds
    Fruits: Kiwi, Strawberry, Blue Berry
    Sauce: Caramel or Rum & Raisin.

    I must say Sanum looked too pretty and every mouthful is filled with toppings. The froyo is creamy and yummy while the sauce is a tad too sweet but i simply couldn't resist the rum and raisin sauce...

    It was really yummy and this outlet has got quite some space for seats which made me very happy overlooking the Jurong East MRT...

    Great location, superlicious frozen yoghurt, great fast service and reasonable prices... Its WORTH IT for the size... loved it and will go back for more.... (no wonder the super long forever queues)

    This is a place where we call little thailand in Singapore and not without much truths. A shopping mall that has been around since I was a little girl, depicted by a thai god shrine outside of the building and lots of tourist bus that goes as far as Thailand.

    I could faintly remember taking coaches from here to Genting Highlands and even Penang when I was rather tiny, the feeling of excitement and anticipation that comes with it. Now as I revisit the place I found the outside a little older n dirtier than many other malls in Singapore yet there are many treasures hidden inside.

    The first nice smell i recognise despite some weird sourish and stale notes was flowers, yes.. frangipani I guess that came from a stall which sold decorations and wares for worship and BBQ meat.... Yes, this place has many stalls that sells authentic thai food owned by thai migrants and we couldn't help but had to seat down for a good meal of Mookata, Thai mango / papaya salad, tomyum soup and green curry. Food served are of a generous portion of spice and herbs... authentically thai.

    While we finished our dinner we took a walk around and spotted some thai discos that served thai beer and music. Pretty interesting and loaded with flower garlands that you could use to honor a good singer. There is also a supermarket upstairs that sell a good range of anything you want to find in thailand. I found some green curry instant noodles and even vietnamese instant pho and of course yummy snacks from thailand like dried banana crisps. The supermarket also has a fresh food in cold storage section as such we spotted some weird animal parts and fresh seafood.

    Apart from these, we managed to find some BBQ sausage that apparently don't look too cook. Its kinda like seasoned raw meat sausages that is pan fried outside but inside is a moist meat. I ate it and my tummy took it well. Lastly, there are many smaller shops that sells authentic thai fashion and hand made stuffs and even thai boxing gear... I heard of a muay thai gym around level 2 but have yet to find it....

    Its a pretty interesting place to walk around if you have some time to spare and yes... great thai food. But the place does smell alittle funny and I didn't use the toilet and I didn't have the guts...*strong bladder strong bladder* otherwise you could pop by food centre opposite the road by crossing the overhead bridge or even the community centre which I guess would have nicer and cleaner loos.

    Revolutionizing popcorns...

    I've had popcorns all my life, be it at the circus or in the movie theatres but Garrett had indeed brought this healthy everyday snack into somewhat a higher level of tastiness and well... its now richer and more fattening but I simply couldn't help my mouth...

    Walking down this crispy cool corridor of the City Link mall, I could detect a faint hint of burnt caramel which was quite pleasing to my sweet tooth and as i approach the stall, the fragrance of this aromatically sweet dessert snack simply filled up my senses.

    While I stood there taking in as much as I could this delicious aroma of caramel and butter... a sweet smiling staff offered me a small cup popcorn and proceeded to introduce to me the different flavours and even better she offered to let me try each of them.

    So I tried:

    1) Plain Buttered - Was crunchy and nice with fragrant buttery taste
    2) Caramel Flavoured- This is my favourite, its crispy and every popcorn is coated with a thick layer of caramel and butter... extremely addictive
    3) Cheese Flavoured - Coated my fingers with a layer of yellowish cheese powder... totally tamed our savoury rush
    4) Caramel with almonds or Macademia - no joke, the nuts are plentiful and we loved it.

    We got ourselves a medium bag and the staff scooped our corns into this resealable bag in royal blue...

    Though its a little pricier then what we get elsewhere, its totally worth it. corns and fresh and crunchy and generous with the toppings... loving it in everywhere... I'm off to buy more for myself...
    Beware.. super addictive...

    I was lured by the 6 for $12 promo and yes I got myself a box of 6 different flavors as I'm not sure which one i should choose.

    Its pretty much like donuts with fudge and toppings luxuriously creamed on top and well, the flavors a available could be pretty confusing.

    The cinnamon buns at the bottom are pretty big and while the lady packed up my box, i noticed my toppings got messed up by the box cover but well.... a sweet mess sounds yummy....

    So i brought the bulky box home and while I shared with my family, this pretty mess... we simply couldn't finish the entire box even when there is 5 of us with 6 star cinnamon buns. The buns are fluffy with a heavy texture and laced with loads of sugar. The toppings generous but I find them too drippy... and well way too sweet a combi.

    It was too much to eat and we kinda felt sick half way through it. The sweetest flavor I experienced would be the caramel cheese and the double chocolate was overwhelming... perhaps they should consider using bitter chocolate to balance the taste of the full bodied cinnamon bun.

    It kinda felt a little too sugary for me... and i'm cutting down on flab!!!

    If you ain't afraid of cats and would like to spend some time soaking yourself amongst them, then this is the place you ought to spend your afternoons in. I'm bewildered that this cafe existed, observant as I was, I totally missed this cafe while crossing the road towards bugis village, all these years and have heard so much about cat cafes yet never did I had the chance to visit one.

    It was surprisingly very clean while i venture up the staircase to a brightly lit room on the top floor flooded with the aromatic smell of freshly brewed coffee. Spied some cakes on display and the sizzling sound from the barrister coffee machine, I've decided on a slice of regular cake with a coffee. While I was briefed on what I should do and not do to the cats, I was spared some hand sanitizer and showed into the sitting area.

    Cats everywhere, yes flurry, plump, cute looking, fluffy matured cats lazing at every corner of the cafe with loads of play toys, structures for them to climb, walk, lay and have fun. While i pick a seat by the windows on the floor, I was in awe by the superbly clean furless floor... Yes It was cleaner then my own room, no doubt, cats are trully clean creatures. While the cats casually strolled by and landed near my feet watching the beautiful scenary outside while I gave it soft strokes. The cats are pretty tamed, friendly and love to pose for pictures.

    Love the various playground like structures around, you could see them exhibit they playful nature without inhibition and some even engaged in a game of football (aka ball chasing). Theres a play area and some other patrons took out some toys from the stash in the play zone to play with them. Cats looked healthy and the entire experience was very good. I'm sure to return again, though i'm not quite a cat loving fanatic but i'm sure my cat loving friends will love the place.

    Very Clean and great service, on top of that, pricing was very reasonable and place was cool and comfy. Great to laze the afternoon away with some new found meowing friends. Well executed place with a great concept... Meow Meow Meow

    I was very excited to attend this very interesting photography workshop by The Photography Academy (TPASG) held on a Saturday morning in an equally interesting location, the cat cafe. The whole experience was fun and very rewarding with the many great photography tips and photo editing tips being shared. There was much laughter, sharing of creative ideas and I've made new friends which I'm sure will turn into Kakis as we all have the same interest in photography.

    The initially coordination was good, 2 days before the event I was reminded with a list of camera equipments and good to have items, while on the actual day, the location was easy to find and I was quickly shown to my "teacher of the day" Irene.

    The initial part of the workshop comprises of a quick introduction and some tips on photographing this cute cats and we are off to try take some test shots before returning to review on the pictures. Apart from the hands on photography session, we had some training notes that gave us good tips on photography, both the basics and "through the years of experiences" kinda tips. I find them very fulfilling as some of this information, i never thought off at all...

    Shortly afterwards we were off to our more professional trial shots and shared the pictures among each other, sharing ideas and why we frame the shots the way we did. Irene then demonstrated to us some process of photo editing, professional jargons and specifications to enhanced our photos and photographers secrets and quick tips for easy and fast editing. She even downloaded some of our pictures and amazed us with the touch up and editing that made our pictures looking priceless. It was very exciting to see our photos be transformed into an amazingly gorgeous image right in front of you with a simple tap on the mouse and yes years of experience to do the right clicks.

    The whole atmosphere was constructive and participants open, helpful and joyous. While time flies, the workshop came to an unrelenting end with a good surprise at the end. Irene brought out a special one time treat (not supposed to be packaged in the workshop) of a photo printer to print out our 3 personal best. This was awesome as we got to bring home some pictures. The class ended with us making friends with each other and those who wanted to stay on to take more pictures of these cute cats at the cat cafe could do so while some of us who made initial appointments got to go... *i wished i've stayed*

    Enjoyed the entire session tremendously and learnt alot. Its time well spent and experience that impacted the foundations of my photography skills. I tried the tips immediately even with my mobile phone and got great praises from my friends.... after writing this, now they know my secret.... :)
