Tree Monkey @ Tropical Spice Garden

August 28th, 2010 · No Comments

As a whole, a classy, romantic, and relaxing dining place. Having meal here is more like paying for ambient than the food. The food itself actually not bad as well as they are prepared by authentic Thais. It should be a popular dining area for tourists since it is located inside a tourist attraction.

Strada Caffe @ Krystal Point

August 22nd, 2010 · 2 Comments

As a whole, a “not so” casual dinning place in business center. At one end, it is a hang out place with people singing (similar to Station 1). At another end, it is like mamak stall in which you can catch football event there. At another another end, it could be a preferable place for couples and families due to quality of food. Anyway, we could see that the owner did invest on coffee machine. They do have some specialties, such as home-made garden salad and cakes.

Aik Hoe Restaurant 益和茶楼

August 18th, 2010 · 1 Comment

It was Saturday morning and surprising it was not crowded. Parking could be a bit far since there is a morning market there. It is hard to find dim sum shops cheaper than this in the island (except the colorful dim sum in night market, of course). The female owner was friendly. It is a daily gathering place for old folks. For them, it is their happiest moment of the day. For me, it is another restaurant I need to share with you.

鲜定味 Xian Ding Wei Taiwanese Tea Room @ Queensbay

August 15th, 2010 · 2 Comments

At first glance, excellent food presentation. However, we felt being cheated by screenshots from the menu. It is not about the texture of the food (even though there are differences), but the quantity. The actual food itself had smaller portion. With such price, I would expect bigger portion, and also bigger bowl of rice. Perhaps the restaurant is out of my league. There are lots of improvement need to be done. Will visit it again provided someone treat me.

东城点心 Viva Dim Sum Delight @ Tanjung Tokong

August 14th, 2010 · 2 Comments

As a whole, hotel-style dim sum at food court price. The Xiao Long Bao 小笼包 is definitely worth a try due to its quality and competitive price. In order to provide the best quality, the flour used to make buns is actually imported from Hong Kong (and hence the great texture on their buns). It opens from morning till evening. Judging from the menu, it is targeted on young to middle age customers. According to the chef, they planned to add “ramen” section in three months time if business goes smoothly.

Young Heart @ Pulau Tikus

As a whole, a relaxing green lung in the stressful city. This is a restaurant definitely worth the visit. The restaurant makes you feel at home as it is so comfy that you will lay on floor and zzz. The home-grown aloe vera as an ingredient is a competitive advantage. Food quality vs price is excellent as well. Of course, if you want to eat Char Koey Teow or BBQ crabs, this is probably not the place. The food here is more health-concerned. With so many items choose from the menu, perhaps the only item in my wish list is – free-flow rice.
