    Miss Clarity Cafe at Purvis Street is unlike your normal restaurant, in fact it looks more like a children restaurant. The decorations and even the menu are so kiddy, but the food is not that at all. Good food at reasonable price sums it all. The diners are Mister Ang, Mister ong and me. Earlier in the afternoon i had tried to make a reservation but they say that all are booked, and walk-ins are left. Because they keep half of the place for reservation and half for walk-in. Anyway, when we reach it was close to full house, but we did manage to get our seats immediately.

    All of us choose a main and add on $3 for an additional salad/soup, drink (barley/lime), and a dessert of the day. The starter salad was quite good it starts our meal up, but the salad dressing was a tad too little

    Chicken Cordon Bleu ($8.80) - deep fried breaded chicken breast stuffed with ham & cheese, served with tartar sauce and potato/vege as side dish. The cordon bleu was not as good as the one i had at the french stall few weeks ago, i think the main reason is because the french stall use chicken drumstick while this one is chicken breast. Nevertheless, it is quite good, just that i had a better one at french stall before 3.5 out of 5

    Chicken Bollorine ($8.80) - oven baked chicken thigh stuffed with fresh mushroom, drenched with mushroom sauce. Thigh was done quite nicely, the comment was the mushroom stuffed inside the chicken was too much! Mister ong gets a bit sick of eating so many mushroom. lol! 3.5 out of 5

    Black Pepper Crispy Chicken ($7.50) - breaded chicken thigh cooked till golden brown & drenched with clarity’s special black pepper sauce. The chicken was quite crispy, but because it is drenched with the pepper sauce, after a while the crispy skin becomes soaky. Guess it will be better if they can put the sauce by the side, or you just have to finish it fast. 3.5 out of 5

    Desserts of the day - crepes with cream, but seems to be more like popiah with cream ( :

    Total bills add up to $34.10 for 3 person, no GST charged, no service charge. All the dishes get 3.5 and none above 4 because i feel that there is nothing spectacular. But i will definitely go back again if i am in the area. Why? For a simple meal at affordable prices, you can’t eat very good food everyday u know? Sometimes just keep it simple. At clarity, they do it simple and good.

      When I first heard of, or rather saw Miss Clarity Cafe, it was on TV and I thought to myself wow.. a pink eating place!

      I told myself, one day I'll visit there. But as usual, that one day didn't happen, until the nice people at ping.sg decide to have a mini-gathering there. :)

      Purvis Street was new and pretty hard to find, the taxi uncle didn't know where it was, so I told him to drop me off at Bugis junction. It's actually pretty near the National Library, and being PINK and all, it really stood out.

      The meet up was in the afternoon, and since the members of ping.sg had already booked some tables, I didn't have to wait like what other reviewers said.

      The deco is unique but too much bright colours makes me feel a little nausea. So maybe they should tone down a tiny bit.

      The menu looks super packed and colourful. Even thought I was hungry, I just sat there, looking at the menu over and over, not knowing what should I order. Wanted to have lunch but when I saw the dry fried chicken on Daphne's plate. I don't think I wanna try it. I don't really fancy dry chicken. End up having a glass of lime juice instead ($1.00).

      I like how they have this simple drawing on the wall directing people to the toilet. :) However, the inside of the toilet wasn't really well decorated and they only have 1 cubical.

      It's written on their name card that there is free wireless broadband, so it's a plus point if I have a laptop and need Internet.

      Unless there are friends who want to gather/have lunch there, if not I don't think I'll visit there on my own.

        Wat the??? That was my first reaction 3 years ago when my friend brought me into Miss Clarity.... Pink and so sissy... But what the heck, I was hungry than, I had no choice... But boy am I glad I made that choice!

        First dish I had, Chicken Cordon Blu... Fantastic! First time trying that dish and it was like love at first bite! Haha... Mind the sappiness.. I can still savour that moment.. Haha... Than there are other dishes which will wet your taste buds! Too many to mention but I say the my first love the Chicken Cordon Blu is still the best.

        Unfortunately, its been years since I last been there and to my disappointment, Its standard has dipped. Maybe its because of the crowd and having to sit outside on some stools and rocky table... But at least the standard of the food still remains if not dipped a little.

        In all, the food is a rocking 8! But the ambience and service, I gotta give it an emo 3.... All said and done, my tummy still makes my decision. What about yours? Haha....
