No more ondeh sponge cake
Quite soft and light tasting actl. More pandan, there wasn't rlly gula melaka. Accompaniments were meh
Again very overpriced
This is good. It does tastes like laksa, in terms of the spices. But it's thicker cos of the minced mackerel i think. Also, it's rice rolls instead of rice noodles
The sambal has this particular jammy sweetness that's abit weird but it works when you mix it in
However, the price is ridiculous lol
I believe most people here never really try on this Kelantan style of laksa.
The soup was come in white colour that has a strong mix of coconut and fish, and bringing out a very strong flavour. Mixed the spices together and you would really enjoy the flavourful of it. But do notes that the fishy taste could be very strong for some people.
Thereโs also ingredients with medley of mixed vegetables, sea scallops, prawns, egg and stir fried bee hoon.
People were recommending us to try this whenever we are here, and I totally agree with all of them. The ondeh-ondeh taste was super rich and tasty.
It is also served together with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

1)$2.190 Niboshi Ramen with Meltique Sirloin Beef - 7.5/10 Coriander and beef broth smells stonks. Soup is warmth to my body, beef flavor is umami. Tastes like pho and msg. Hanjuku egg is great. Beef slices are medium rare, tender and chewy. Noodles are Abit too chewy. Overall, noodles hinder the life of soup, if they were less chewy, experience would be so much better. They were overcooked.
2)$10.90 Butter Beer - 8/10 Foamy with vanilla, Abit gassy and sweet. Quite refreshing to drink but price is on the steep side. No alcohol,reminding me of root beer float without ice cream but foam.

Went here for a birthday celebration on a busy Fri night. They allowed a free cake slice although it wasnโt the actual birthday. Much appreciated for the service. Got the mango mousse and it was an alright cake. Too bad Ondeh2 cake isnโt allowed for the free cake.
For drinks, Ordered the Butter Beer which was to me tasted just like a Root Beer Float ($10.90) with marked up price and ordered for the sake of novelty. Had the Sriracha Chicken ($14.90) which came in a pretty tiny portion and just doused mostly with cheese. Not worth and u can skip it.
Ordered the Aglio Olio ($18.90) too, requested non-spicy for the kids but still came tasting like Mala noodles. If it was me eating it, it was not bad. But gave feedback we aldy requested non-spicy for the kids and they gave us another one on the house despite us aldy finishing the one given. Kudos to that.
Also had the Spicy Beef Spaghetti ($21.90) which is just too expensive and nothing in that dish justifies that price tag. Skip it.
The main item which is the Lobster Thermidor ($44.90) came with two lobster bodies with crazy cheese topping n some sauces to go with it at the side. Nothing special, again a cheese heavy dish with white sauce. There wasnโt much meat and they put tons of mushroom in it to make it look fuller i guess.
All in all, I still much prefer Malayan council to Noosh as theyโve pretty similar dishes n concept. In terms of food, this place isnโt very kid friendly as well. Wonโt come back again.

They have desserts such as Classic Ondeh-Ondeh Butter Cake & Noosh Strawberry Cheese Cake too.

Save this quaint restaurant at Esplanade Mall for dinner and conversations with the fam. Start with a plate of Curly Fries with Bacon and Cheese ($12.90) to share then get heated up with their Creamy Smoked Duck Lemak Chili Padi Pasta ($18.90) that packs quite a punch and has a good portion of smoked duck. With their rotating cake specials hopefully you're lucky enough to catch their fluffy Ondeh Ondeh Cake ($10.90). Remember to wash it all down with an icy mug of Butter Beer ($10.90) that hits the spot.

This dish had me feeling full! Worth a try and never a regret eating there ๐
The menu here is pretty interesting but perhaps because of the location, it's a little pricey. I had this beef goulash mac and cheese because it sounded interesting but it turned out to be $21.90 for a normal mac and cheese with a few pieces of beef bacon. When I think of goulash, I think of stew. Which is definitely not present at all in this dish as you can see from my photo (no it was not hidden underneath the cheese either unfortunately). It was still yummy and we finished it all but to call it goulash is a misrepresentation. It should just be called beef bacon mac and cheese, in which case I wouldn't have ordered it cos it's kinda boring ๐
I asked the waiter what was one of their most popular dishes and he pointed this baby out. This dish has a very generous serving of smoked duck; tasty and succulent. Beware of the spice level, it stands at 3 chillis and I even asked to tone it down BUT it was still spicy. Haha but worth the try and hella tastyyyy
I am an absolute fan of Ondeh Ondeh and sweet stuff. So trust me when I say this cake is da bomb. It really brings the true flavour of Ondeh Ondeh. Plus the touch of ice cream on the side is simply excellent.
P.S what would make it even better is a drizzle of Gula Melaka sauce all over the slice ๐
Amazing place with amazing food! This dish was beyond delicious! Love how the chicken is so tender and crispy. Just a bite into it, you can taste how the chicken was perfectly coated with the fiery sriracha sauce, along with a creamy layer of mayonnaise, topped with perfectly melted mozzarella cheese as well as crunchy spring onions. Wouldnโt mind queueing again just to satisfy my cravings for this and also to try out their other amazing dishes. I had their sambal bali chicken cutlet as well, and it was superbly delicious. It was crispy and the taste of the sambal went perfectly well together with the mozzarella cheese. Love it! The price chicken sriracha and the sambal bali chicken cutlet were $14.90 and $21.90 respectively. The staff there were very friendly and approachable!

Taste:3/5
Well to start off, I am a sucker for good Halal food especially unique creations, but my entire dining experience is usually influenced heavily by service and the ambience of an eatery. We'll see how Noosh scores in my long, honest review :)
So what's on the table: Curly Fries, Duck Lemak Pasta, Kid's Chicks & Chips, Butterbeer and Bulgogi Beef Rice.
Curly Fries ($12.90) and Chicks & Chips ($12.90) are almost as basic as they can be, nothing extraordinary or homemade to be tasted.
Don't even wanna start on the Bulgogi Beef Rice ($14.90) because really not what I wanted in the first place :( but we weren't informed when we were seated down that my initial choice Spicy Beef Ramyeon was not available so I succumbed to picking the beef rice so I don't keep my loved ones waiting and the waiter staring.
Served in a big bowl where two-thirds filled with rice, this is considered a huge portion for one. Beef and soy sauce was seasoned fine, but I remember the gravy was a little too cornstarchy. Also reeked a prominent beef(?) smell after a few mouths.
Here comes the famous Duck Lemak Pasta ($18.90). I have always loved a good Lemak Cili Api dish at any time of the day and so I was influenced by a colleague's review to try Noosh's take on this. Their gravy is not too heavy and spicier than the usual, but to the level which I kind of love, and surprisingly goes very well with the pasta. Just the traditional-meets-modern kinda fusion done right! Just a tip: eat it while it's hot/warm. Mmm-dap sis!
Noosh's Butterbeer ($10.90) was made with rootbeer, cream and butterscotch all mixed somewhere (I can't remember the details the waiter gave). This drink spells out "d-i-a-b-e-t-i-c" though I enjoyed my first few sips because who wouldn't like a sugar rush after a long day at work right? Better to drink on it's own so you might wanna ask this in a takeaway cup after your dinner at Noosh. I still prefer BOO:EH hehe!
Food aside, now the ambience and service. I would score them 2 out of 5 stars for these. Not too sure if we were to be blamed for coming in dinner time and to be seated at the back and corner where the speakers are because really, we don't quite enjoy our time here. Music was already really loud, upbeat and Latino all, and what's this "sex sex sex" and haram lyrics playing in your eatery? I totally understand businesses who are up for high turnover rate especially at dinner time but I'm sorry it's too loud for my own comfort. Food came in less than 15 minutes so I'm cool with that and service is not too bad.
Would I return for a dine-in in the evening? Definitely no. Would I return to tapau? Yes, and most likely only for the Duck Lemak Pasta. Also mind you, service charge and takeaway box are also applicable.
