Searching around on the Internet for some good food in Bugis turns out this recommendation. As its shopfront says, they are famous for their beef noodles. True to the website recommendation, the beef noodle did not disappoint me. It has been such a long time since I tasted a good and at least decent soup and beef chunks. The soup is not oily at all and certainly goes well with the noodle. If you ate it together with the small pieces of Cai Xin, it will further enhance the favour of the whole dish. The beef chunks, which is the soul of the whole dish, is cooked to just the correct tenderness, unlike some other beef chunks I had eaten in the past that is hard and dry. Overall, I can say that I am pretty satisfied with the meal. Service wise, they are just average, nothing good or bad to dwell on. Perhaps, the only thing that in my opinion that can be improved on is the price of the beef noodle. At $7.90 for a small size noodle, I feel that it is just a bit overpriced.
Set in a secluded corner inside OG Point, the outlet offers a quiet and relaxing ambient for people to forget a hard day's work and soak into the tasty and nutritious bird's nest fusion meals. With their current promotion at $22.90 5 course 1 for 1 meal, the offer is simply hard to resist. One point to take note though, the 1 for 1 promotion ends this September. Customers will be spoilt for choice, particularly at the number of selections of bird's nest fusion deserts on offer in the menu. Without further ado, allow me to provide a brief review of the cafe finest food. =)
1st Course: Appetizer
Pan fried carrot cake; juicy pork, shrimp and bird's nest fusion siew mai; together with crispy mashed yam and minced meat - Simply irresistible!!
Rate: 9.5/10
2nd Course: Chicken Soup
Nicely boiled tender chicken with soft carrot chunks, the aroma simply sets you flying through the air!! One set back though, the chef adds just a little overboard of pepper, which over-rides the sweet chicken taste of the soup. Nevertheless, the soup is still good to go~ =)
Rate: 7/10
3rd Course: Grilled Black Pepper Chicken with Chicken Rice
Fragrant, tasty chicken rice toppled with spicy black pepper gravy. The chicken is cooked to just the right amount of time so that the meat is still tender and springy. One of the best dishes I have tasted so far. =)
Rate: 9.5/10
4th Course: Chilled Soft Beancurd with Half Cherry
Originally, this was supposed to be bird's nest mooncake, but I guess since the mid autumn festival is already over, they have stopped producing them, thus substituting with the beancurd as desert. I find it just normal, nothing out of the special.
Rate: 6/10
5th Course: Coffee / Tea
Nicely brewed coffee with milk to sweeten it up. One of the better ones I have drank so far, but still, I find it nothing special.
Rate: 7/10
Now, coming to service, I must say that they are all very professional! Each of the waitress there will be on the lookout at the pace their customers are finishing their meal, so that the next course will be ready to be served just as they finished the existing one. This kind of services really get me impressed. Definitely worth every money for the price paid. For the service, I gave them...

To start off, this is my first time at this Marche concept Japanese Food Bazaar together with my friends for a birthday celebration. Before I went in, I was guessing what kind of Japanese style food could they possibly serve inside?
After walking round and round the whole complex, I finally decided on the Grilled Chicken Omu Rice (picture above) as it look the most appetizing of them all. Nicely grilled and tender served with onion rice and a omelet on top, the display simply set my saliva drooling. I would say the food is not bad, and reasonably priced too at $7.80. Definitely worth your money!
Rate: 7/10
Next up, I ordered the Rosti (yup, the same one as Marche) as I have not eaten one in ages. Hmm, didn't know why, maybe the person who fried it isn't skilled enough as I find the potato strips a bit over fried and oily. Did not get to enjoy it much. Oh well, but my Omu rice more than make up for the failed Rosti.
Rate: 5.5/10
For their service, I was quite impressed with it as they took great length to explain to their customers what each dish is about if the customer seem lost on what to order. The timing for them to serve their dish was pretty fast too. Thumbs up for them on service~
