Pizza Hut (Fast-Casual)

Ordered the Party of 4 meal + Treat for 2 + 1 person meal since there were 7 of us. (No service charge cause of their fast-casual theme hence we had to fill in the order chit and then pay at the cashier)

Traditional Bolognaise ($9.50+) - decent 

Beef Lasagne- never disappoints 

Chicken vegetable soup - they should scrap all types of soups except mushroom soup. Serving was so small. 

Hawaiian reg pizza - decent 

Seafood deluxe - this was so good!!!! 

Bbq chicken - toppings were so little 

Left the place still hungry though :( serving was definitely too small for 7 pax.

Fig & Olive

They have updated their menu (by update, I mean greatly reduced their menu items to mere 2 A5 pages) 

Bbq chicken kebab wrap with fresh veggie ($8.90+) this was quite delightful. They weren't stingy with their chicken and I thought the dish was well seasoned. The side veggies though.... No dressing at all. 

Fish & chips ($12.90+) fries was bland (had to add salt) the fish was crispy and nice- much like an average coffee shop range... Stingy on the coleslaw. 

Also, they had no green tea can and made me an iced green tea using Dilmah tea satchet and ice water (which was priced at a ridiculous $4.50+) 

Such a horrible experience for a restaurant. Ridiculous pricing for below average food and there is a lack of middle eastern dish in this self-proclaimed mediterranean place (not even hummus!!!!) 

That's the new menu. No appetizers too. Standard has definitely dropped tremendously.

Hei Sushi

Let's start with appetizers! (Still disappointed by their now defunct buffet deals) 

Soft shell crab roll ($2.38+) Really enjoyed this. Crunchy, delicious, tangy, perfect! 

Tempura snow shell crabstick ($2.38) decent 

Diced salmon ($2.38+) decent

Shake Maki (salmon) $2.38+ We had two servings of this! Really gooood 

Thai Fish Cake $2.88+ This was average... I thought it'd come in 5s cause it is pictured that way in the menu. Not so oily too. 

Mains!!! 

Yakitori ($7.88++) with set meal (Add $4.88+) Apologies for the really bad lighting! Yakitori was delicious albeit a little too fatty. The tempura items (ebi, crabstick, carrot) was awesome! Chawanmushi will never disappoint. 

Chicken curry katsu ($14.88+) Japanese curry is always sweeter than average indian curry, but this tasted like the typical Mee Rebus broth. Not recommended. 

I'd prefer ordering just the plates from the conveyer belt rather than the main courses... It's cheaper too and more filling!

KRAVE

As we were looking for dessert places to go after our satisfying buffet meal (see previous post), we bumped into this new Halal cafe, KRAVE. 

Fried Mars Bars with Vanilla ice cream ($8) So decadent!!!!! Chocolate lovers will enjoy this. 

Their menu!!!! No gst no service charge!

In terms of their pricing, they're pretty comparable to average cafes around. 

Very friendly staffs, will return to try out their mains!

Koh Nangkam Southern Thai Restaurant

Went here with the impression of ordering a few dishes, but was told once we reached there that there's only going to be a buffet @ $18/Adult the whole of Ramadan. 

Also, PLEASE MAKE RESERVATIONS EARLY AND CONFIRM IT TOO because they somehow lost mine even though I called them 5 days before. (We were so lucky to be given an empty table cause of no-shows) 

The buffet we had! 

- steamed white rice

- green curry (nice texture)

- sambal prawns (prawns were too tiny)

- prawn fritters (love it!)

- fried chicken (extremely delish!

- chap chye vege (will never disappoint)

- Clear tom yum soup (felt like I was eating chicken soup; lacking in tom yum tangy-ness) 

- thai iced milk tea (Amazing!)

- iced lemon tea (refreshing!) 

There's even Sup Tulang! (Bone steak) A tad oily but acceptable tastewise. 

There was also Laksa which I did not get to try cause I was too full by then. And as desserts, there were fried bananas (super crunchy!) and fresh seasonal fruits. 

Highly recommend this place for your iftar needs. The food was so good and at a price of $18, it's extremely worth the money! Just note that the restaurant is extremely crowded so you have to be pretty kiasu to get the food that you deserve. Epitome of "you snooze you lose" so if you want second servings, hoard them fast! 

(Will definitely return to try their ala-carte dishes after Ramadan)

So Pho

Vietnamese summer rolls with shrimp and lemongrass chicken ($4.80+) This was so refreshingly good! Filling too cause of the rice and noodle fillers. The sauce really heightened the taste of this appetizer.

Pho with beef slices and beef balls ($8.80+) the distinct nutritious broth sets this dish apart from other soup-based dishes around the region like Bakso noodles from Indon or Thai beef noodles. The beef slices were not cooked thoroughly though. No complains about the beef balls! 

Really good service!

Wilder Cafe

Latest, halal hipster cafe is here in town!

Iced Lychee Mojito ($7+) this was satisfying cause of the serving size! 

MUST TRY HERE: Salted Egg Fries ($11+) it's really a good change from the usual truffle fries (altho they do have that too) wished the fries were tossed more into the sauce tho but this is definitely a must-try. 

Old-fashioned truffle fries ($11+) classic. I love my truffle on my fries

Chicken and mushroom tomato pasta with fried egg ($13.90+) Decent. Again, the serving was not generous at all. 

Sloppy Lasagne with a toss of salad ($11.90+) the mesclun salad was not dressed properly but it's nice to have it alongside the indulgent lasagne. (Alleviates the guilt a little hehe) Lasagne was good but gets a little overwhelming cause of the super thick pasta and cheese combo.

Wilder's Beef burger with side of truffle fries ($14+) notice how small the portion was? Exceedingly overpriced. This was without vege. The beef was so thick that unfortunately, it wasn't cooked thoroughly, leaving a weird aftertaste. Not recommended. 

Overall, I would only return for the salted egg fries. Since this cafe is new, it has a few teething issues it needs to address like being heavily shorthanded resulting in extremely long waits for our drinks and food. Overpriced for such small portions too.
