Had a birthday celebration here with my family. It was almost full house on a weekday night. Most likely due to the 1 for 1 main DBS card promotion that had just ended today. With their sitting capacity & the amount of people that night, the noise level is uncontainable.
Steak & Eggs ($22) – Ok the star is supposed to be the steak but guess his lens preferred the eggs instead. This is a 150gm US Agus prime sirloin steak. I asked for it to be medium. It came tender, chewy, juicy, nice. The homemade entrecote sauce at the side is a brown sauce which has a bit of wine taste. Goes very well with the steak.
Chilli Crab Pasta ($24) – Generous amount of crab meat. The garlic is huge & overwhelming too. The taste is uniquely nice but it gets kind of spicy & feels too much towards the end.
Salmon with Sweet Potato & Beet Chips ($24) – All I can remember is that the beet chips tasted bitter. The presentation of this dish look kind of pathetic though.
Carbonara ($21) – We ordered this for the kids but end up we enjoyed it more. The savory buttery cream sauce makes you want more of it.
Cheddar Cheese Bacon Waffles ($19) – The waffles are tasty with bacon bits in there. I find it a tad oily though.
Brownie Parfait ($10) – Ended with this dessert as my birthday cake.
Other than that night being too noisy, the food makes up for it. Contrary to this place being a bakery, they need to work more on it’s dessert menu. This place does not face the main road. Walking along the small road will lead you to its entrance.

A monthly eating affair with my group of friends from office. It’s my birthday month & my turn to get a treat from them 🙂
Ice Lemon Tea & Ginger Ale ($3 each)
Cream of Mushroom ($5.90) – It’s good but not to the extend of licking the bowl as what my friend read from somewhere.
Fried Wings & Drumlets ($9.90) – Mediocre
Tom Yam Seafood Pasta ($14.90) – Actually I’m very keen in this dish as I like the sour & spicy combination of tom yam. However, my tolerance for spiciness is quite low so I dare not risk this as my main. Stole a few mouths & I really like it but can’t take anything more than that.
Sirloin Alskempi ($24.90) – The sauce is the same as the fish but not in a separate bowl. Can’t really comment on the steak as I didn’t really try it.
Cheesy Chicken Chop ($16.90) – Tried some, the meat is tender & the sauce is nice.
Had been wanting that churros fix recently & this place kept popping up in my mind. A rare Sat morn which we managed to get out of bed & out of the house early for brunch.
Cream of Mushroom ($8) – Soup of the day. Not too bad but find the price a little steep.
Churros ($9) – Served with small pot of dark chocolate & tangy creme anglaise (tasted like milk). The portion seems too much for 2 person but we still managed to force it down. Actually you get tired of it after the 2nd stick. I still miss those from Churrosity at Holland Village.
Celebration for him getting another year wiser. He is not so enthusiastic to celebrate it this year as he think he had just crossed the national youth age. Haha.
Golden Calamari Rings ($10.90) – Just right chewy calamari rings in lightly crisped beer batter, the perfect combination. Goes very well with the chilli mayo dip too.
Vegemite Glazed Chicken ($11.90) – We wanted to order the Mushroom Fritters but they ran out of it. So we substituted it with this. Unfortunately, the sauce is not to our liking as we find it too salty & there’s too much crispy bits on the skin.
Rokeby Chilli Mussels ($19.90) – You get to choose the spicy level from Zero, Mild, Hero to Legendary. We opted for Mild & it’s just right for us. The sauce is pleasantly savory, a tad sour from the tomatoes & lightly spicy. Totally satisfied with the generous serving of mussels.
Braised Ox Cheek Stew ($20.90) – The sauce is addictive. We took the bread served together with the mussels & wiped out this sauce. The mash potato is also velvety smooth. The star got to be the ox cheek. Tender & melts in the mouth, we crave for more of it.
Home Made Tiramisu with Bailey’s Irish Cream ($6.50) – In an occasion like this, a cake is a must. It’s more on the bitter side but we like it.
Spoon to Mouth: say grace..break bread..
