Tuk Tuk Kitchen

Another old post guess I am getting lazy to update my blog :P Was around Golden Mile area and happen to craved for Thai food so we went to Golden Mile Complex to look for it. My friend brought us to the famous Thai food place but it was packed and may have to wait for quite some time so we went to hunt for another place.

So we went to this Tuk Tuk Kitchen, looking at their menu, the price here isn't cheap. We ordered Stuff Chicken wing, Tom yum soup, Fried Omettle, Papaya Salad, Brocoli with Scallop and Minced Pork with Basil.

- Tom Yum soup was too spicy for me, even I already requested not so spicy, it almost burn my throat and   stomach lolx :D I don't really enjoy the Tom Yum soup but I guess my friends does.
- Papaya Salad was sweet and not so spicy quite appetizing too.
- Stuff Chicken Wing was nice, crispy outside and juciy inside.
- Fried Omettle, no comment on this just another common dish
- Brocoli with Scallop the vegetable is fresh and green. I ever went to a place to eat they served yellow colour of the brocoli to us, so digusting I wonder how long have they kept the brocoli. Scallop is chewy and springy taste like fishball to me lolx
- Minced Pork with Basil was always my favourite in Thai food. Is a lilttle spicy and a little salty goes very well with white rice.

Just realize they have a few branches like Suntec and Gelyang. Bill comes up close to $80 for 4 person expensive or not is up to you all to judge :)

Fish & Co @ NEX

This can consider a old post which I forget to blog it. Met up my best girlfriend (Belle) on Xmas eve to Nex and went to Fish n Co for dinner since the Q here is shorter than other places. One thing I don't really fancy about Fish & Co is because their choices are quite limited and I don't really like to eat fish.

Looking at their menu is all Fish n Fish n Fish again lols... they do have seafood but only like a few choices only. End up we choose the 'fish set' that comes with 2 sides of your choice just like Nando's. So my girlfriend Belle ordered the Sambal Fish and I ordered the Coriander Fish set.

I totally regret ordering this dish, at first it taste nice but after a while it make feel so sick of eating the thick, greenly coriander. I had to steal Belle Sambal chilli to go with it, I wish I had ordered hers instead it taste so much better than mine. But their Sambal is not really spicy at all even for a person like me who can't really take spicy this is quite mild to me. One thing to take note that is their service, forever never CHANGE still the same as usual, Poor!! They usually will serve the 3 sauces but when Belle requested they come with only one sauce only till we requested it for the 2nd time. Called and called again they hardly notice their customer also, sigh!!

I doubt I will visit Fish & Co again, total bill is about $50 for both.

Woody's Pub Cafe

Happened to pop by this place that day and quite like the enviroment, a place which is quite similar to Seletar Pub where you can chill and mingle with your friends. So I went and arrange a dinner here to catch up with 2 of my close friends. Location is near to Sembawang park, behind those landed property.
Looking through their menu, they have buffalo wings and that is one of the reason I came too :P They serve Peranakan food too but the price here I would said is quite steep. End up we ordered a plate of curly fries with cheese, half dozen of Spicy buffalo wings and a M hawallian pizza to share.

Their buffalo wings have 4 different levels I think it start with the very mild than mild than spicy and than very spicy. So they decided to try their Spicy level but based on my friends they said is roughly the level 2 to 3 at Seletar buffalo wings. For me, not a spicy lover this is too hot for me to take a second bite but as for my friends they like the wings here as they find it more tender comparing to other places. But they prefer the taste at Seletar, I would only said is up to indivual as everyone has differnt taste bud. Hmmm maybe they should steal their recipe and create a version on their own lolz.

My complain is their so called Hawallian pizza!! Hard crust, super thick cheese on top with very little filling, you can really forget about ordering their pizza. Curly fries with thick and creamy cheese, kids will love this.
Total bill is about $70 include 4 root beer float for 4 person. Reason for me to come back here again is to have a drink with my friend, chill out and relax but as their food I doubt I will order again.

Lai Wah Restaurant

Happened to be around Bendemeer and this good friend of mine suddenly suggested to go to this Lai Wah restaurant for dinner. He mention to us that this restaurant started way before we were born, is an old traditional Chi Zar restaurant. This restaurant was located below the HDB flat and thou is located near the main road but it can hardly be seen unless to those who have been here before or stay around this area.

This restaurant give me a very old school feeling like those older generation who held their wedding in this kind of restaurant, it was not crowded yet when the time we reached. We were served with a plate of peanut and chinese tea when we were seated. They have quite alot of variety and they also served set menu here. I wanted Prawn Paste Chicken Wing but the auntie said they don't have it anymore, kinda of disappointed. So ended up we decided on the Fried Prawn, Garlic Pork Chop, Belacan Kangkong, Sweet & Sour Fish and Fu Rong Egg. Their menu are mainly in chinese, pardon me for this as I can't really remember the name of the dish.

I must admit that the food here are quite nice but the price range are a little steep maybe due to their popularity. Overall the bill comes up to $75 for 3 person, whether is it expensive or not is up to you all to judge.

Their address printed on the napkin

- Garlic Pork Chop

I thought it will come in slices because it stated Pork Chop but it was in chunk. This is really nice, the meat is very tender and fragrant. The taste of garlic is just nice, not to strong, give this dish a try.

-Sweet and Sour Fish

By looking at the colour of the fish my feeling tell me that this dish is not going to be nice but surprising it taste better than I thought.The fish was soft and fresh and the sauce match perfectly.

-Belacan Kangkong

This dish is almost the same as what we ate outside but here their Belacan is not very spicy and the vegetable is very crunchy and fresh.

 

-Fried Prawn

Okay, this dish is expensive lolz. I do not know what is that called that wrap with the prawn but it is very crispy and most of all is not oily. Prawn are big and fresh, no shell and it is very crunchy.

 

-Fu Rong Dan

Hmmm.... Common dishes nothing much to said on this.

Furama Riverfront The Square

My sister has this Buffet Club member so we decide to go to Furama Riverfront to try out their buffet on my sister birthday. At first I got them confuse because I told there is only one Furama which is located at Outram than I realise I lead them to the wrong Furama lols.

Furama Riverfront is near to the famous club disco Zouk. The restaurant we had our buffet is called The Square. There isn't much crowd when we arrived, the restaurant was quite big, quiet and ambience was quite nice too. But but but the food here was so-so only, no fresh oyster and the variety was very little too. Their sashimi was very fresh and I like their apple strudel, I ate 2 of this :P

Though their buffet is consider cheap but for the food they serve I will said is not worth it. This will be the first and the last time I visit them. Original price was around $35 per head for dinner.

Chuan Lai Guo Zhi Wang (Macpherson Kway Chap)

I was craving for the kway chap at Macpherson and it was just a 5 min drive from my office. A nice brother of mine came all the way down to accompany me for lunch as I was so sick of the food around my office lols.

I guess I don't need to introduce much on the kway chap here as it was so popular and well known among every of us. But one thing to highlight the kway chap here are quite expensive, we order a plate of the mixed pig organ with duck meat and 2 kway for 2 person cost us $13. Try their fried pig intestine ($8) is crispy and nice. Best thing about their kway chap here is that they are not very oily and their pig organ are properly clean as they don't have the stinky smell. They are open till midnight so anyone craving for kway chap late at night may consider coming here.

Jerry's BBQ & Grill (Jalan Kayu)

Went out for supper on last saturday, had no idea what to eat at first and out of the sudden I craved for buffalo wings. So we head to Jalan Kayu to tried Jerry's since seletar had closed for order at the time we went out.

Jerry's was located along the stretch of the Selegie Beancurd stall. Jerry's is quite a nice place to chill or relax and chat chit with friends, I wished I had come earlier. Their Buffalo Wings only have 3 levels to choose from, I am a person who can't really take spicy so I choosed the level one which was called Smoked Buffalo Wings and a plate of Calamari Rings.

Calamari was crispy and luckily it was soft and not taste like 'rubber' lolz :P Buffalo wings, nicely decorate but can't taste any spicyness at all. The buffalo wings taste like sweet and sour chicken to me, is like fried chicken wings with the sweet and sour sauce over it. It is really different from what I ate at seletar, I still prefer Seletar over Jerry's but if the wings at Seletar will be as crsipy as Jerry's wow I think it will be perfect lolz :P

Total bill: $32 for 2 person another thing to add the Buffalo Wings at Jerry's is cheaper than the one at Seletar.
