Restaurant Reviews

Had a really nice weekend...was lucky that i had a chance to tried out 3 different restaurants and cafes in 2 days...so now im gonna giv some reviews on them..

Eden Restaurant The Curve
Docor was Way too Simple..its so empty..i don't mean the occupancy..the ceiling is so high that it reflects sound...nothing looks like a western restaurant..more like a family cafe to me...there's not 'warmth'

Service was So so..the waiter can't really understands and speak English well..i wanted sour cream but given the ribs sauce..??! sour cream and lea & perrins requested were placed on a soya sauce plate?! huh?! fine..oriental eh?

My chef's recommended ribs taste really weird..served with thier 'special' sauce which tasted like satay + tomato sauce..i can hardly describe the taste..meat was tender but too bad..comtaminated by the sauce..twin terderloin for my sista in well done...not too bad..my dad had his lambchops..juicy as well..Yum..with my fav mint sauce..

sis's terderloin



Paddington House of Pancakes
Nice ambience...very English style...except that it was a bit crowded inside..

Service was okay..nothing great~

Food..oh well..more than a 100 things to choose from; 1 hard decision..i was scratching my head..my heart was kinda 1516..hahhaha..TOO many choices..but at last i chose an American breakfast look alike pancake..while he ordered a 'pannekeok'..oh whatever it spells..looks more like a pizza to me..juicy! Mine was kinda dry..it
comes with guacamole(an avocado-based relish or dip) which i pretty much like it..
