A simple beef kimchi ramen which is actually instant noodles in disguise. Still, it makes for a good "cold weather" meal and costs only $5.50. :) 3.7/5

If memory serves me correctly, Pepper Lunch used to have numerous strips of beef surrounding the rice for the Beef Pepper Rice. This time, it was three pathetic strips by the side of the rice. And it seemed that because I ordered the additional egg, the beef was lesser than less. Taste was still good (how bad can it change to??), but my advice is: go to a different branch. $7.60 and 3.7/5.

That means half burrata cheese served with Parma ham (30-month) and Italian cherry tomatoes.

Yum. Everything comes together for a wonderful palate. Fresh and orgasmic. I got a thang for cold cuts so this is perfffff.

$24.00 for a platter. 4.2/5

Love this place. Lurrvvvvvveee this place, with its cozy setting, friendly staff, great warm service and good food.

This is a Chef's Special and probably a seasonal dish. The amount looks small but let it be known that it is very filling and good for sharing if you are ordering appetizers and desserts. Truffles are plentiful and go well with the dish's base. Might feel 'jelak' after a while though.

$26.00. 4/5.

I had high expectations of this due to a close friend always going there and tempting me with the thought of it. It lives up to expectations.

I first ate it without any chili to test it. Absolutely delicious. Chili is really hot and a little goes a long way. $5.50 for a large bowl and it was enough for a starving me.

4.5/5 I want to have it again...

Let's just preface it by stating this: I love this place; I really do.

I had wanted their Thai Iced Tea cake but they did not have it today so I settled for this Earl Grey Lavender slice. But look at this slice. A thin, limp slice, toppled over on the plate. I mean, where is any ounce of effort even? Oh, it is not too bad, but really not worth the $6.05. Totally disappointed today, not even going to bother rating it.

Nestled at the basement of Lucky Plaza is a fish soup stall with really nice fried fish bee hoon. The serving is huge, with plentiful ingredients. Surprising find. 3.8/5 Only $5.00.

Fantastic dish. Teriyaki chicken was tasty and came together with the soba to form a relatively light but satisfying dinner. $8.00 and 4/5.

Look at these. I mean, just look at these. I never had char siew baos like these until Tim Ho Wan. And then there is no looking back. Crispy on the outside, piping hot and tasty on the inside, these are great. $6.50 for three. 4.2/5

This mimics the Sarawak Kolo Mee shops around Singapore, or maybe it IS one of them. Ingredients are slightly different from the original but it tasted just as good. Love it! Willing to pay $7.90 for this. I eat it without chili and it is awesome. 3 prawns, 3 wantons, char siew, minced meat, vegetables, and noodles in a light tasty sauce. Mmmmm... 4.3/5

I had approximately 30 mins to rush through dinner but it was a pleasant experience (I'll talk about that later). Food came fast. Noodles were springy and cooked with tomato sauce (that caught me off-guard but hey, Macau right, what was I expecting?). Pork chop was great. Tender, juicy and crispy at the same time. $13.50 inclusive of GST.

I was seated facing the counter and noticed the employees at work. One person stood out - the waiter who served me. He was prompt, attentive, quietly hardworking, fast and basically all over the restaurant serving people, making drinks, taking orders, etc. He served my plate with one hand behind his back and a bow. Woah, and I'm usually not easily impressed by people. I am amazed at the way he never stopped, and he was consistently courteous and smiley. So even though I don't make it a point to review anything else apart from the food, this time, I have to. 4.9/5 for service by Mr. Zhi Wei.

I order the Miam Miam Spaghetti All The Time when I go to this place because it is so fantastic! Break open the perfectly warmed egg and mix it with the rest of the dish for a delicious, light but gooey beautiful mess. Dish consists of tomatoes, mushrooms, bacon, vegetables, eggplant (which I took out), onion, and spaghetti (of course). A thing to note: the menu only indicates the large dish which can be too heavy for people. Ask them for the "single portion" version, which will be a couple of dollars off. $13.80 for mine, excluding GST. 4.4/5
