Cafe Le Caire @ Al-Majlis

Been here quite a few times and they were all disappointing experiences, but I decided to give this another try cause it's the only café in sight with air-con seating. Second floor of the café is like those fine dining ATAS restaurants (perfect for dates). 

It's a must for me to have Hot Apple Tea ($5+) whenever I'm in the mood for middle eastern food. This was acceptable, but the best tea is still at Derwish. Check out the cup advocating Speak(ing) Good English! 

Appetizer: Falafel ($10+) I wish they had more hummus spread, but this was good!!! So flavourful and wholesome.

Seasoned Crispy Chicken with Mashed Potato and gravy ($12+) Really good!!!! Meat is so tender and fresh. The mashed potato is generously-portioned and tasty too. 

Sirloin Steak - Medium Well. ($22+) Cooked to perfection. It's hard to get decent steak just the way you like it, and this is really amazing. 

I really enjoyed my visit here. Came here on a Friday afternoon so there's no crowd; the service was really good, and the food (although it took quite a while, WAS SO AMAZING!!!!!!)

Butterscotch Cafe

Chilli Crab Cake Burger ($14+) The sauce is so spicy! Such a filling dish (real crab meat used; no fillers albeit a little dry) 

Ramly Meets Wendy Burger ($14+) their own rendition of the Ramly burger... The patty is too thick (better to buy from pasar malam and not spend so much) 

Butterscotch Soufflé ($14+) So light and delightful! Should really give this a try

Truffle Fries!!!!! ($9+) ADDICTIVE AS EVER!!!!! One of the best truffle fries I've tasted so far

The location isn't convenient, and personally, I'd only come here for the truffle fries. Service was horrendous too. Super snobbish staffs.

Gently deviating from this blog's main goal i.e. Reviews on local (Singapore) restaurants, I'd like to share my short yet fulfilling trip across the border. 

Fatburger @ the newly opened Komtar mall. Quite overpriced. RM50 for both sets of burger. 

Honey Garlic Chicken burger with fat fries / Western Beef burger with skinny fries

USA Fried Rice at Galleria@KotaRaya 

Fried Kway Teow

Thai Fried Rice

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf @City Square: Créme Brulée Latte, The original Vanilla ice blended, Hardest Red Velvet Cake ever, Mum's Scone.

Super fatty beef satay :(

Star of my trip: DIM SUM BUFFET (Kai Xuan Chinese Restaurant @ The Puteri Pacific Hotel) For RM 40 per person, this was really really really fulfilling and satisfying. Only thing missing is Salted Egg Pao. Truly a delightful brunch. Everyone should really give this a try! 

Really nice ambience! Featuring Chinese Tea :)

Really great weekend! A much needed break from life. Next break: REN takes BANGKOK!!!!
