Food for thought

This post is at least 3 months post dated. :) But fret not because pictures shall do the talking.
Was out with the girls for a small short gathering. Chose this place because some filming took place here and i super like the show.

Food for thought. Located right opposite the new dblo. Who would have known its also a hidden gem?

Menu was slighly skimpy though.

Fast Food Style? So that dont have to clean the tables?


Tables look simple but good enough. A pity cos no back rest. The whole colour theme of the restaurant was well integrated and matching.


The pasta section was ok ok.... I ordered Garlic Prawns with Corriander Linguine.
Min ordered the Prawn and Calamari Risotto

Ok, this is jus about the girls

SOrry hui, this is not edited.


Ok, this will agar tell you how long ago this gathering was.
But the main focus is the menu k....

Had English Breakfast.

Here comes my pasta.
The pasta was al dente, topped with corriander rather than cooked with it. Hardly tasted any corriander. Garlic strong was well balanced with the olive oil fragrance.
Prawns were big and crunchy.


This is hui's half breakfast. Eggs were runny and slightly on the buttery side. Bacon was crispy and had all the oil off from it. I like it but its not her type of bacon.


Mel had this wonderful thing. Pancake with gula melaka, topped with chocolate chips and whipped cream. The gula melaka melted and soaked the pancakes sweet while the choco chips provided the aromatic cocoa fragrance and the cream adding another layer of texture. Yummy.

Min's Risotto. Was ok, not too thick nor runny. Ingredients were generous.


Potato gratin for hui was yummy, serving was a bit too big for her to finish. topped with cheese that filled to the brim and the creamy potato. A recommendation to share if not it'll be slightly too thick to finish.

The only concern i had was the amount of oil left over from my pasta. Towards the last few mouths oil starting coating my mouth. Didnt like the feeling.

Auntie note: Tea can be refilled with hot water over and over again. Good choice if you are not after their fatty milk shakes.
