Food critic Swee of Make Your Calories Count recently checked out the downtown cafe offering S$12.99 lunch deals, inclusive of a main course, soup of the day and unlimited soft drinks or coffee!
Newly opened at TripleOne Somerset, it's a good chill-out spot centrally located, yet away from the busy crowds. We'd first heard of it at the Sustainable Seafood Festival where they'd showcased the Patagonian Toothfish Ceviche Taco as part of the movement to preserve our previous seafood supply.
A random craving got us ordering this, with perfectly crisp chicken (albeit a little small), and tender juicy flesh. I liked the extra crunch yet not overdone, and the accompanying dips went well with it. Its side of vegetables was a tad overcooked though, with a charred bitter after-taste.
Indeed a pretentious one, this was basically 'goreng pisang' or banana fritters with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Though the banana was freshly fried, its batter was chewy and lacked crisp.
We loved the scoop of ice cream though, and it would have been perfect if the cream could have been changed to an additional scoop!
Its signature dessert didn't quite meet our expectations, though its mains were pretty good in its flavours. We loved the place for its ambience and strong kick in flavours.
