    Went there for lunch after choir. The lunch set meal is really valued for money @ $14.90 with free flow of their famous mushroom soup.

    Indeed the soup tasted great. The taste of the mushroom was thick but not too much. Tasted well even without addition of pepper.

    Fish and Chip. Feedback was that it was tasteless though I felt that it was alright. But the size of the portion was too big and trying to finish it makes us uncomfortable.

    Steak. Asked for the steak in medium well done but it came out medium rare instead. Taste was great if not for the done-ness of the steak.

    Salmon (don't know what) Miso Spaget. It's Miso spaghetti was the best. Definitely the best tasting sauce that we've ever had for spaghetti. However, the salmon that came with it doesn't seem fresh and had an odd taste to it.

    Service attitude was fine though there were only like 2 waitress for the restaurant, service was prompt because there were only 2 tables to be served.

    Will definitely visit again as there are other interesting dishes to try.

      It was a last minute decision that we decided to try out the food at this restaurant. We were partly attracted by the price of the items on their lunch menu. Haha….with more than 10 main courses, ranging from sandwich to pasta, each priced at $9.90 for you to select from, we found it pretty reasonable. If you want to make it a complete set, you can do so by topping another $5 and you’ll be entitled to a free flow of either soup or salad and tea or coffee. If that’s still not sufficient to satisfy your stomach, another $3 will get you a serving of starter.

      The advantage of eating with in a big group is that you’ll get to try out a greater variety of food without hurting your wallet too much. Haha… That’s precisely what we did! We ordered 2 complete set meals, one came with a mushroom soup while the other with salad, and remember, it’s free flow! We also ordered a few starters to share.

      Mushroom Soup The mushroom soup was good, with bites of mushroom that you can chew on. The taste was light, not too salty.

      Salad It’s just a normal salad with lettuce, cherry tomato and cucumber. However, the oriental dressing they used was good! Probably because I like more sourish dressing & this came perfectly well for me.

      Wing Zing Fried chicken wing which remained succulent and it was not too oily.

      Olio Laksa Spaghetti (usual price: $12.90) This was the main course I’ve chosen. It’s a fusion of laksa and pasta. Unique! What you can expect from this dish is a rich laksa gravy and typical condiments in laksa such as tau pok and hard-boiled egg. Added to enhance the uniqueness of this dish was shredded chicken. It’s definitely worthy of a try, although the over-richness of the gravy made me feeling a little sick after finishing ¾ of the plate. So it’ll be best to share this dish with someone.

      Food was okay, but service was pretty slow. There was only 1 waitress and I guess 1 chef in the restaurant during lunch hour so it took them some 45mins before our main course got on the table. Really got to improve on their service.
