The soft and chewy meatball is moist and tender. It carries a pinch of salt which heightens the accompanying sweet, aromatic lingonberry jam🍒 (tastes like cranberry sauce). The creamy brown sauce is slightly underwhelming compared to its cherry-flavoured counterpart but distinguishes itself with the taste of pepper. The mashed potato is thick but light. Together with some fresh broccoli🥦, the strong flavours are balanced. Overall, a good family dish to share!

The chicken wings are deep fried. Inside is tender, fresh and moist. The chicken wings are well-cooked and the thigh meat is smooth and tender. If you love chicken, you should try this! Recently, their food quality has also improved due to capacity limits, resulting in shorter queues.

The Springs Rolls are surprisingly good. Crispy, deep-fried Spring Rolls with soft, tender fresh carrot 🥕 and cabbage 🥬 strips inside. Good for its price! This is for people who want to feel full without overspending (coughs* totally not me 🙅‍♂️).

Schnitzel is essentially a type of chicken cutlet; A thin slice of meat with German origin, similar to tonkatsu from Japan or escalope in France.

As I sink my teeth into the Schnitzel, the the breaded skin takes me aback my its crispiness. Inside is plant-based 🌱 meat that tastes identical to white chicken breast. Firm and chewy. Gym Lovers 💪might love this! It was a shame that it was overcooked which made it dry instead of tender and juicy. Luckily, the Nacho Cheese 🧀 came to the rescue. The Nacho cheese is fresh and creamy. A rich thick consistency took hold of this sweet-salty sauce. It evoked the tangy, pungent taste of mustard. Paired with the crispy and crunchy US fries, it is a sinful yet ironically, environmentally-friendly combination. Taking into account that IKEA used plant-based 🌱 meat, I think IKEA did a pretty good job. 👏

The salmon melts under the knife. Soft, smooth and tender! As I tried it for the first time, the salmon was unexpectedly firm and chewy. The gorgeous light-pink meat revealed its subtle glamour. The sauce was an excellent accompaniment. It carried honey-like 🍯 properties. Infused with the zest of lemon 🍋, the sauce is a light and refreshing complement to the rich delectable salmon. I thought the side characters would pale in comparison but I was dead wrong. The broccoli 🥦 was fresh and crunchy. It hightlights the richness of the salmon and tones down the zesty lemon 🍋 sauce. Then, we have the second main lead (like 2 guys 🧍🧍‍♂️competing for 1 girl🧍‍♀️), the potato cake is fighting for the spotlight. It is a mixture of broccoli bits 🥦, mashed potato and crunchy potato chunks within. The potato cake alternated between the 2 dimensions: soft and crunchy. Pan-frying gave it a slightly charred taste that was irresistible. It is a close fight but as always, the main lead (salmon) never loses. 🤷‍♂️
