Had the Big Breakfast at the Communal Place. It was nicely portioned and each component was well executed. The eggs were smooth, mushrooms were well-seasoned, bacon was not extremely crisp but not chewy. The salad also added a refreshing touch :) Great dish to get for a nice brunch! Was also greeted with a small welcome drink taster which added to the experience. Recommend this place when you’re in the area!

I ordered the 7 piece chef selection of skewers. It came with a variety of meats and vegetables. The chicken thigh and wings were very flavourful, with a slight char on the skin. The pork skewer was my favourite and it was very tender! The mushrooms were juicy and the peppers were surprisingly tasty for someone who doesn't usually order them. Would recommend to have them quickly when they're hot so they can be enjoyed fully :)

I ordered the signature hickory ribs and the original spam fries. The ribs were super tender, almost didn't need my knife to eat them. Very generous portion and flavourful too, but might be too sweet for some if you have it all to yourself. Suggest ordering to share. The spam fries is made using real spam, a bit too salty for me but the mayo balanced out the flavour well. Great value for money overall, especially for the ribs!

Super cosy space and the staff were helpful in giving wine and food recommendations :)

Had a cheese platter with comte, truffle camembert and parma ham. The comte was lighter than I expected but the truffle camembert went very well with the crackers. The ham was flavourful and balanced out the cheeses. Also ordered the fish and chips (mentaiko fries). The fish was nice and flaky but the batter got slightly soggy from the mentaiko sauce on the fries. Maybe ask to put the fries on the side instead of putting the fish on top. The mentaiko sauce was a bit too jelat for me after a while.

I had the denver steak with pomme puree as a side and the tiramisu to finish off. Steak was tender but a bit too fatty for my liking, ended up being "jelat" halfway through my meal. The potatoes were very buttery and smooth. Added a red wine sauce that was really flavourful too. Tiramisu was decent; slight rum flavour and a bit too much cream but still tasty from the cocoa powder and chocolate flakes.

I had the original king with no spiciness and extra garlic. I liked that you could customise your soup and noodles. My soup was slightly salty initially but it might be because of the extra garlic. The noodle texture was good and the soup was flavourful without being too rich. The highlight of the ramen was definitely the perfectly cooked egg!
