The portion of the fried rice together with the chicken was generous. In addition, the fried chicken cutlet was flavourful and crispy. I also ordered the Horlick Dinosaur which is really good too. Service staffs were friendly as well. I love the rustic and old school theme of the place which made it delightful to dine in. (See what I did there) Furthermore, the props such as the erasers was quite nostalgic. I got to play it while waiting for my food to come. I really like the fact that we have to write down our orders on a mini whiteboard which made me feel like I am back to school. Overall, It was a great dining experience.
The food is not bad.... with the 1-4-1 offer given. First time to this restaurant, didn’t feel welcome after stepping in. Customer Service standard need to improve. They have two options (Regular and Large) for the main course, somehow I order a regular that cost $20+ and another regular at $16+, which I think will be better to order the large one at $25+ which is more worthwhile.
And finally ending my meal on a sweet note with my favourite pastry of choice ~ Madu @lees_confectionery. This prettily plated dessert consists of honey and caramel in the center, sprinkled with crunchy honey flakes. It’s so pretty and absolutely delicious! 🍯💛

Chrysanthemum tasted exactly like Hock Hua Chrysanthemum 😂
the meal started off with bread, butter and that grey thing that i didn’t catch the name of. i loved the bread, it was chewy, soft & crispy!
then it was appetiser that basically consisted of truffle, cheese, bread crumbs, figs, other fruit & onion jam. the combi was quite new yet good! truffle taste was so strong!
for my main i got the salmon with scallops, lemon puree & uni cream sauce. i loved it! the lemon was a refreshing touch to the main & there was a strong butter taste to the sauce. the salmon & scallops were so soft & fresh!! 😍 the best kind of seafood = soft, fresh, NOT DRY & FISHY
other mains: butternut squash ravioli, was kinda weird lol / snapper with asian inspired chilli sauce, loved this, was so well-marinated! / steak, was good usual steak
we also got caesar salad & truffle parmesan fries! the truffle fries were nice but i wish they were shoestring instead of thick cut 😝
i thought we were done but suddenly the waiter came to our table with that bday dessert, i was so not expecting this surprise from my fam awww. but lol apparently the person they were talking to had super bad english so my name was spelled totally wrong (ashley -> aireen....?) it tasted like vanilla ice cream (made of REAL vanilla, you can see the specks in it) and i enjoyed this bc i love real vanilla, i just hate artificial vanilla flavour 🤢
overall i’m really happy i got to spend my 20th with my fam! felt like a long time since i had a bday meal with them outside since we either celeb at home or with my friends 😩 what a great end to my favourite day of the week ;) oh no! not ending yet, i’m gonna end it with watching why not? the dancer hehe watched it bc of taemin but it’s a real cool show bc i love dance (tho i can’t dance lmao) ((kinda feel like learning tho))
Had the Nasi Lemak Besar here and I truly enjoyed the dish. Every component goes well together and I really like the chicken wing and bergedil and not to forget the fragrant coconut rice & accompanying sambal chilli. Nasi Lemak is a dish that most Singaporeans love and I’m glad that this does not disappoint :) Really generous portions as well and I would come back with my family again. Much thought has been put into the dining experience to create the old school nostalgic vibes - this include allowing us to write our orders on little whiteboards, having childhood games like country erasers and five stones on each table. It’s nice to see kids and their parents bonding over simple games like these at the next table and dining here has indeed brought back fond childhood memories for me.
A good and delicious bowl of beef soup ($8). Mildly spicy soup which is good to combat the cold and rainy evening weather.
