One of the better burger out there. The burger is made up of thick and juicy double beef patties, caramelised onion, melty cheese and house sauce. The set also comes with thick cut fries. One bite and you will feel the tender umami explosion. Having tried their pasta and pizza in the past, I can say that this burger surpasses them all in terms of taste and satisfaction. The rest were just subpar.

150g of savoury, juicy snail pork sausage accompanied by a hearty serving of thick, shredded potato rosti, topped with a sunny side up egg, a dollop of chilled sour cream, and a generous scoop of creamy mushroom sauce.

The rosti boasts a contrast of textures, with a slightly charred crispness on the outside and a soft, mushy interior. However, the seasoning seemed to play favourites, with some parts being a touch too salty while others leaned towards blandness.

The cold sour cream, while not overly flavourful, does a decent job of cutting through the richness of the rosti, adding a refreshing touch. On the other hand, the creamy mushroom sauce won my heart with its wholesome flavour, complementing the dish beautifully.

Though the sunny side up egg sports a beautiful yolk glow, it falls short of the desired runniness. Nevertheless, the smoky pork sausage comes to the rescue, infusing the bites with a burst of flavour, especially where the rosti may lack.

This massive brioche burger bun houses a beef patty, cheddar cheese, green coral, tomato, pickled gherkins, all served with cheese sauce and straight-cut fries. The burger impresses with its size, and the patty lives up to its "juicy" name. The overall composition is neat and tasteful.

Feast your eyes on this mega platter featuring grilled ribeye, marinated grilled lamb cutlets, pan-seared salmon, tilapia, chicken breast, mussels, curly fries, corn on the cob, tomatoes on the vine, and an array of sauces. The ribeye was both chewy and succulent, while the lamb had that distinct gamey flavour. Unfortunately, the salmon seemed a tad overcooked, and the tilapia had a hint of fishiness. As for the chicken breast... well, it was just meh. A delightful dish for sharing tho!

Savour the sautéed prawns in buttery garlic and onions, served with zesty mango salsa and a squeeze of lime. Mmm... Yummy.

Dive into a refreshing salad featuring Romaine lettuce, hard-boiled egg, capsicum, lemon dressing, dried oregano, and crispy mini salmon fillet served with a lemon wedge. The crunchiness of the refreshing veggies is a real treat!

Hold on to your taste buds! This pizza packs a spicy punch, thanks to fiery chili padi toppings. It's spicyyy but also shiok. The generous cheese and chicken toppings balance the heat, creating a delightful twist on a classic pizza.

Delight in penne pasta with shrimp, spinach, garlic, onion, and tomatoes, all topped with grilled prawn, nori flakes, parmesan cheese, and parsley. It's fragrant and perfectly al dente, a delightful fusion pasta.

This classic features beer-battered tilapia, a traditional salad, straight-cut fries, tartare sauce, and lemon wedges. While the presentation is decent, the fish didn't quite hit the mark in terms of taste. The batter was light, and the fish had a somewhat stale flavour.

Beer batter squid rings, serve with tartare sauce and lemon. A small bites to share among friends. It was chewy.

Indulged in a visual feast! Nom... Nom!

For the beverage, I chose the Iced Teh priced at $4, and I was pleasantly surprised by its authenticity. It's not every day that you find a place like this offering a local milk tea similar to the ones you get at your neighborhood coffeeshop. The taste was genuinely on point with the right balance of tea and milkiness. The sweetness was a tad strong, but I appreciated the authenticity. To top it off, the glass size was surprisingly huge, making it a definite must-order if I visit again.
