Cheatday Eats

I heard so much about the long queue but when I reach there about 5, the queue wasn't long. I got the seat immediately cos I'm alone and there are counter seats available. They ran out of Beef burger so I ordered Shabu Shabu Pork instead. The pork is tender and lean. If you know me well, you should know how much I love eggs. Lava style omelet is eggcellent. Pretty gd, I will be back. 😋
On a side note, I carelessly left my boxing gloves there and they agreed to keep for me for two days. Very good service!👍🏼

I was so looking forward to all the lobsters' dishes but unfortunately, they all taste meh~ 😕 The lobster tails are so-so, the claws are tough and tasteless. Lobster bisque is not bad but it’s cold.😐 The turnip in the lobster popiah is quite bland, you can easily get nicer popiah outside.
Ok, so what’s nice? The prawns are sweet & fresh, taste much better than the lobsters, oysters, mussels were gd. As for the sashimi, salmon/maguro/ika was stated in the menu but only salmon is available, the rest are sushi.🤨 My favorites will be the foie gras and egg benedict. The foie gras is pan-fried until crispy on the outside while still soft on the inside and it just melts in your mouth. The egg ben muffin is soft and fluffy when paired with the oozy yolk, it’s the best combo ever! The Sio Bak is very crispy and tasty! The tarts and cakes are yummy too! When food coma attacks, just go to the poolside and chill and have a pretty power nap. 😴😂

The umami from the torched Mentaiko mayo did not cover the natural taste of the salmon, you can still taste the freshness of the salmon. Their signature truffle rice is so fragrant I could smell it before I even taste it! It’s amazing how both umami-filled ingredients can match so well without overpowering the flavor of one another. Love the neon lightings and the coach seats. If there's one thing I have to complain about, it’s the serving size is a bit too small for me or maybe I just have a big appetite. 😛

Second time eating tendon. Finally get to try this famous one. Taste much better than the one at suntec. It doesn’t have the oily taste and I love the egg with oozy yolk. I came in earlier than this couple sitting beside me but they got their food first I’m not sure why though. I finish 3 plates of cabbage while waiting bcos I’m so freaking hungry, waited so long and seeing ppl behind me getting their food first pissed me off even more. 😡

Queued super long for this limited edition Golden Fuji Tendon. The king crab stick is sweet, Anago was a little disappointing, the rest were gd too. Towards the end I do feel little bit of oily taste and had to use the ginger to clear my palate. The portion is huge, luckily my appetite is quite big, I managed to finish everything. My friend on the hand couldn’t finish it and requested to tabao back the rest of the tempuras. The staff then pack everything in a takeaway box for her. I think this is what everyone should do when you can’t finish the food instead of wasting food, they still taste gd when you heat them up with a toaster or oven.
While waiting for our tendon, I saw the staff clearing the tables, pouring away the leftovers. I noticed many ppl left more than half a bowl untouched. I also noticed a family of 3 ordering 3 bowls, the portion is so huge even adult may not be able to finish, what are the chances that a little kid can finish the whole bowl? And if the kid can’t finish, the food will go into the bin. 🤦🏻‍♂️ I dunno abt you but whenever I see ppl waste food I feel bad. What a waste!💔 Next time when you can’t finish your food, please ask the staff to tabao for you. Let’s do our part to reduce food wastage.

I had to try this when I know it comes with sio bak! V friendly boss. V gd service!
