Food Review

My daughter decided to celebrate an early Father's Day with me, and she took me to Hopscotch at Capitol Arcade, a charming restaurant offering a variety of Western dishes.

To mark this special occasion, we decided to try some of their signature cocktails. I opted for the “A Decade in Time,” which was served in an elegant hourglass glass, beautifully paired with an infinity mirror display showcasing light paintings of memorable moments. My daughter chose the “Wish Upon a Lantern,” inspired by the traditional Chinese sky lantern. The cocktail came with a paper lantern for us to write our wishes on before the staff set it on fire in front of us, revealing the drink inside. It was an incredibly unique and memorable presentation that added a special touch to our celebration.

We also ordered a selection of appetizers, including mushroom and lobster bisque soup, which was rich and flavorful, accompanied by crab cakes served with fried mautou and a spicy chili crab sauce. The sambal grilled octopus confit was another highlight, bursting with flavor.

For the main course, my daughter had the duck confit with foie gras, which was expertly prepared, the meat was tender and perfectly cooked. I went for the signature black garlic ribeye steak which was served with bone marrow butter. The steak was juicy and tender and I savored every bite.

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the food, and the staff were exceptional attentive and thoughtful, making us feel pampered from the moment we walked in until the end of our meal.

Hopscotch is a fantastic spot to create lasting memories with its unique cocktails and great food. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a special dining occasion.

I enjoyed an unforgettable lunch at Tan Ser Seng Herbs Restaurant, savoring their signature Turtle Soup and Ginseng Black Chicken Soup. Both broths were rich, aromatic, and perfectly balanced, highlighting the natural sweetness of the meats. The turtle meat was especially tender with a prized gelatinous texture, while the black chicken was equally flavorful.
I also highly recommend their side dishes and I have ordered the Jade Tofu and Homemade Prawn Roll which was served piping hot with fresh ingredients and outstanding textures. A complimentary ice cream for dine-in customers was a thoughtful bonus and the refreshing drinks helped beat the afternoon heat.
Service was warm, knowledgeable, and attentive which enhancing the overall experience. If you're looking for traditional, soul-warming herbal soups prepared with care and authenticity, this is the place to visit.
