manager says you can’t swap for non-alcohol drinks btw 🙄

hawker stall with one of my favourite truffle pastas ($12.90 i think?). used to grab order this every time i had carby cravings and i decided to try it irl. sauce is scrumdumyumdelicious, truffle is strong and the spaghet has a good bite to it. it’s just really good. they have a few outlets so if you’re passing by try it. trust! con (👎🏾) wait time that day was 30 mins, not sure why but they told us in advance! weren’t on a time crunch so we just walked around the neighbourhood and it was a non issue

we had the creamy crab ($26) and the beef ragu ($22)! (👍🏾) were both really, really delicious and i thoroughly enjoyed every bite of the potato filled gnocchi - was the perfect bite and size for me. expected it to be jelak towards the end but it wasn’t, likely cause we shared 2 different flavour profiles so i’d recommend the same! beef bolognese has a good hit of spice and i like to think i have a decent spice tolerance but it got my nose leakinnng. ambience is also very chill and cozy. only con (👎🏾) is prices are steep and the portions are on the smaller side/not filling (but that’s tipo esque and you can always upsize). still i’d return another time to try the other flavours :-) i also got the ice latte which was decent

we both got the carbonara ($26 gross) and even with beyond 1-for-1 it’s not worth it. i recommend you stick to the drinks or try something other than their pasta. firstly this didn’t taste like a carbonara, it’s more of wack alfredo sauce with some skimpy bacon bits. the sauce was too sweet, lacking seasoning and one-note to the point of it being nauseating and i could barely eat half. the spaghet was overcooked. we also shared some sriracha wings (not pictured) which was alright but not that great either. again, don’t get this. we had to wait frustratingly long too, about 35 minutes. credit where credit’s due: the ambience is nice and staff are friendly and diligent. overall, really disappointing and i am hella broke

this steak is probably the best I’ve had! this steak converted me to a medium rare lol (not pictured but: I liked the shepherds pie, truffle chawannushi, and vanilla tart)

yummy, always love to have food whilst at ikea

the truffle cream sauce is pretty nice, with the asparagus! the sundried tomatoes were yummy too. the pine nuts tasted like hamster food, wished it would’ve been toasted but my pal liked it. she said it’s “nommie nommie”
