    Oh MR Crabs..............

    I am coming to eat you up.................................

    Its another Gathering of the GAGA GIRLs..... and this time we've decided to visit Mr Crabs from Spongbob and friends......

    The place was pretty out of the way, far from everywhere, situated in a funny set up of 3 coffee shops within 2 blocks of flats. However, the crowd was AMAZING... I've really never seen such a HUGE crowd in a Tiny coffeeshop... and the noise... Cracking of the crab shells, squirting of the crab juice, slurping the soup, licking the pot clean.... tells you everything you need to know about HOW GOOD THE CRABS REALLY ARE.......

    My favourite is but of course the Mr Crabs...... The crab beehoon was very tasty. Its not the ajinamoto tasty kind but of the rich stock tasty taste.... Beehoon was soft n QQ and the crab was so MEATY.... I can sink my whole 2 front teeth i got last christmas into the fleshy meat..... Can you imagine that.... so juicy, soft and yummy. The soup was creamy and emits a sweet crab roe taste.

    Thats not the best yet.. THE BUTTER CRABS was just like the ones i had in KL..... So CREAMY, So fleshy, So Delectable. *SLURP* Huge chunky crabs and creamy sauce.. can you imagine that.... HARD RIGHT.... But it sure is a POTENT COMBINATION.... It tasted so nice I almost wanted to lick up the plate... Order nice mini deep fried buns to pick up the sauce if you want to avoid spooning down the sauce. You simply cannot resist that.....

    We had also the seafood tofu, It was soft and crispy on the outside. Very appetizing and kids surely loves it. It has got bits of everything in the tofu and very SHIOK if you eat it while its still Piping Hot.... The paper chicken was ok... Veg was ok.....

    So if you are a crab lover... you must come and try this place out.. Can you imagine, I am still salivating? I must relocate to Ang Mo Kio.......


    Don't EVER TRY IT..... If you are not planning to get HOOKED.........

    Went there for lunch with my colleagues today. I had been to other outlets but some of my colleagues had not step in Pepper lunch before, therefore they are very interested to see how the whole thing works. Haa....

    While waiting at the entrance, there is a big menu to choose from, all the different combos they have and at the same time there is a TV screening they way that you should "do" to your food when they arrive to ur table. Hee.... We were given our table number and order at the cashier while the waiter put the table number on our table.

    So we ordered:
    Combo Chicken and Steak with egg (Mine)
    Combo Chicken and Lamd with egg
    Chicken Pepper Rice with cheese
    Curry Beef Pepper Rice

    Mine came 1st so I can show what they can do with their food. All of them are quite excited of what they can do with their food. Haa.... Soon all of them arrived and they managed to cook their food before the heat dies off. Haa....

    Adding the egg is quite interested as you can determine how you wanna ur egg to be like. Mine ended up scrambled egg. I like to add the Honey Brown sauce to my meat and the Garlic Soy sauce to my veges. Haa... The chicken is tender and juicy even though some of it are stuck to the hot plate, while the beef I managed to cook it to medium rare, which is also good.

    One of my colleagues who had the lamb say that there is no "yang siao wei". The meat is very tender as well. Quite surprising as it seems that they did not do anything to the lamb at all. Haa....

    Overall, my colleagues like the idea and their food. In fact they say they will come back to try some other dishes next time.

    The service there is quite fast and good. From the cashier to the waitress who served us our food are prompt and polite.

    One thing, I dun like is after the meal, tend to smell like the food. Haa... Well there is nothing they can do about this as well.

    Total bill came up ot be $50, whihc is considered decent. Seem like we will be back to try other of their dishes sooner than expected.

    This coffee club is one of the places I always loved to hang out @ Orchard Road. The whole place is open air concept so no air con. There is smoking area and non smoking area. It is also a bit nosiy as you can heard the cars going by and the noise from the birds etc.

    There are a lot of mist fans in the place so dun worry about feeling hot in a place without air con. In fact, it is a good place to go in a lazy afternoon to read. Haa....

    Went there after a movie at Cathay Orchard for a simple snack. Not really feeling in a mood for dinner.

    We ordered Chicken Pie, Spicy Chicken Wings, Ice Tea and Strawberry Smoothie. Lastly Apple crumble for dessert.

    Their chicken pie is good. It came with hot fillings and the pie is crispy. When eaten together, it is a good mix.

    This is the first time I tried their spicy wings. The wings came in a pyrimid shape, stack on one another. Fried, crispy and not oily coated with a layer of their spicy sauce. This is good!

    For their drinks, icea tea ok, but the strawberry smoothie tasted like cough mixture. Of cos my fav drink there is still morning dew tea. I also ordered a pot of mornng dew to pamper myself as well. One of my happy food.

    Their apple crumble comes with huge chunks of apple, with a layer of crust and topped with a big scoop of ice cream. It is how I like my apple crumble to be. Hot with a cold mixture! Great!

    Of cos their mudpie is also famous. Should give it a try. Personally I prefer the "other place" mudpie. Hee.....

    The service is prompt and polite. We were seated when we reached the door. I dun like the original seat and requested another seat, the waitress immdefiatly jz bring me to the seat I requested for. No questions asked.

    After ordering the food also came pretty fast. Except when they are processing my bill, it took some time, but it is fine with me. Haa...

    Overall, I like the atmosphere of the place. It is like a calm spot in the middle of Orchard Road. My peace heaven.

    Was there with ploarbear to eat at this outlet of suki sushi during our lunch. As he mentioned, the place is quite concealed insides an almost empty building and if one would almost definitely miss the shop if you had nt been there before.

    Me being an avid fan of sushi and sashimi, found this place to be a raw deal. The plates of sushi were going at only 99 cents each as well as the chawamushi. And the more expensive ones would be going from 2.99 onwards. As compared to Sakae Sushi, the price was definitely more reasonable and the taste of the food was comparable, thou Sakae Sushi is slightly better for some of them.

    But my best food would be the salmon sashimi. The slices of the raw fish were thick and fresh, unlike those from Sakae, thou fresh as well, but were much smaller in terms of size and the price was higher as well.

    Overall, I would say that the meal was definitely worth the money we paid, abt 50 bucks for 4 persons eating almost 30 plus of the sushi. I would definitely recommend this place for those living near AMK central to go and give it a try.

    This is one of the place that I will think of when I need a quick fix for some "Hong Kong" food.

    The usual stuff for me will be the Ice Milk Tea, Puo Luo ban and some of their dim xin, toast and of cos the Mango Ice.

    On average their food is quite good and usually came quite promptly. I loved their ice milk tea, they did it in a way I loved it, milkly with a scent of tea.

    Their Puo luo bao is crispy with a thick slice of butter in it. Nice.

    Their toast is think and nice. I like the normal one with honey and butter. Sinful but good. Haa....

    Mango Ice Mountain, something like ice kachang but everything with mango, topped with a scoop of mango ice cream. Loved it as well. They use real mango chucks for it.

    I have not tried for their baked rice and "instant noodles" but fromt he pics the crab porridge really looks good. Maybe shall give it a try soon.

    Their service is good and prompt.

    Their seating though, sometimes a bit squeezed. Especially for table of two, you can hear what the other table are toking about as well. Haa... Of cos they got couch seats whihc are pretty good for big groups as well.

    All in all, it might not the be the best of all, but then like what I started, it is a good place for quick fix of Hong Kong food.

    This is the place where I will go and swim, rock climb, bowling and many other things.

    It is within walking distance from Yishun Mrt as well.

    The place is sort of like a country club where there are a lot of things to do. Most often I will go and swim in their pool. They have a wading pool, an olympic size pool and a relaxing pool with jacuzzi in it. The main thing is the pool is not really that crowded during weekend. After swimming my laps, I always like to go and chill out in the relaxing pool. Haa.... I have to say that it is also a great place to sun tan as well. Their shower also come with hot and cold water. Haa.....

    The place also have a adventure area where there is rock climbing, bloundering etc.

    Of cos still got bowling, jackpot room, billard, etc.

    Of cos they also have food where there is a different version of jack place (I think it is halal), and a chinese restaurant where they sure pretty decent food. That is for another review.

    There is also a spa in it, and I m intending to try it soon.

    To me, I can spend an whole afternoon there relaxing. It is a great place.

    Has eaten many times at this oulet of Ajisen Ramen as it is near my home and after my meal can go Bugis for some window shopping.

    My fav Ramen is always the Tonkusen Ramen, whick comes with half a egg, 3-4 slices of the Char Siew and the nice but slightly fatty pork ribs, which is boiled till it is very soft and can eaten with the bones as well. Add on the volcano sauce for another two bucks and the taste is just superb!! Top that up with a bit of the chopped onions and chilli powder and the soup will taste even better. Just thinkg abt it makes me go yummy again!!!!

    But one bad thing abt this outlet is that it does get rather cramped during peak periods and sometimes you are just too close with your neighbours for comfort. Either of you can really hear each other's conversation loud and clear. Other than that, I would say that the food is quite alright and is located at a very convenient place

    Was brought to this place by my collegaues last Friday. It was my first time there as I seldom passed by that area. Inside, its the more traditional setting of an Indian restaurant,instead of a more modern feel like that of Komala's.

    There were many different types of prata available, that really made you spoilt for choice. There are the traditional kosong, egg, onion and the more special ones such as prata with babana, prata with chocolate,etc, and the murtabak types as well.

    Me decided to go for the traditional ones as I did not really liked those specialities pratas. ALso, we ordered a small fish curry as well.. The food came nice and hot and prompt.

    Would recommend this place for those who like to eat pratas. The price is quite reasonable and the food tastes good as well. Feel that it it worth the money and would definitely go back there again with my friends.

    Had walk past this place a lot of times and finally walked into it for dinner last sunday. A few changes from the old one.

    Once I walked into it, I jz have this feeling of warm and cosy. The uniform on the waiters and waiteress also looked very good. One main change, instead of the normal paper card they passed to customer in the past, now they use a plastic card and it works like a ez link card, wireless contact.

    The place is quite small but they managed to seat a lot of people as well. The only bad thing is the toilet is outside the restaurant, so whenevr wanna to go to toilet can either pay ur card bill then go to toilet then come in with a new card or can leave ur identification and card at the door, then come back and contiune.

    Now come the food, I have to say that in general the food is better than last time. They still have stalls offering differernt food. I think due to the fact that it is now not under frachise, but the main Marche HQ took over the management. So what food I have.....

    1. Rosti. My fav. It is thick and crispy. It is a prefect match with sour cream. You can add smoked salmon or susages or stired fried mushroom, which I did.

    2. Vegetables. In the past, used to be you can pile all the vege you wanna then they will cook it in front of you. Now different, buffet style. They cooked the food and put it in a big wok. So you can choose to have a small, middle or big plate, then you can pile as much as you want. There is 4 types of vege to choose from and all hot and tasty. I had mushroom and the german sour vege (Hee... Forgot the actual name alr)

    3. Pork Knuckle. It is huge, crispy and juicy. I loved it as well. You jz have to eat it. At the same stall, they also got roasted chicken as well, Kenny Roger style.

    4. Drinks. They sell a variety of drinks, juices, beer and acholic drinks. We got root beer and I got myself a apple cider which is good. Hee.....

    5. Desserts. They got cakes, pudding, crepes and lots and lots of bread to choose from. In the end, we are attracted by the strawberry cake and starwberry cheesecake. Both were good, especially the strawberry cake with so many strawberry on top. It is also very cheap selling @ $4.80 per piece.

    The service there is good and tentive. They also cleared the plates very fast as well.

    I think I will go back very soon to taste the rest of the food that I did not tasted. The price is cheap as well, only about $25 per person.

    This jap restaurant hides in the building in AMK Central (in front of the market). In fact, it is so well hidden that everyone would jz walked past it. Reason being, it is inside the building and the rest of the building looks empty.

    Once there, same as other jap places, all the waiters and waitress would shout their greetings in the air.

    The deco of the place is ok same as other sushi places but they played those 90s english songs. Haa....

    The service there was quite prompt as there are more servers than those waiting to be served.

    The main highlight of this place is all sushi at selling at 99 cents per plate. Cheap leh. Haa.... That is the main reason y we are there in the first place.

    So sushi on plain colored plates are 99 cents and the rest ate fro $2.99 onwards. The sushi variety is quite a lot, however find that the rice they use are not that good and they tend to break into half when picked up. For the fired stuff like fired tofu and dumplings, they came hot which means they are made when ordered. Good.

    For the raw stuff like salmon slices etc, according to my colleagues, they are fresh and good. Ended up calling a lot. Haa...

    I also tried their teryaki chicken bento. It came hot adn I can see the chef preparing it as well. Haa... But then it fall short of my expectation. The chicken is rather tasteless on its own, the omelette is ok. Well jz say it is not one of the best I tasted.

    So overall, the place is for a quick fix for sushi and it is cheap as well.
