Verdict
This restaurant does not look appealing to me at all as I have never thought of walking in for a look though I have walked pass the place many times. But today, when my partner and I were on the street again, we walked in. The inside of the restaurant is dark but packed with people. For this kind of crowd to be there, it must be for a reason. We proceed to the counter and have our orders placed. The service was quick despite of the crowd, we got our food in less than 10 minutes. We had a Bibimbap, a Beef Don and a prawn caviar roll. Everything was so delicious, my partner loved the Beef Don very much.

Heard about this place a couple times, in a nice way, before I actually tried it. Yes, it is indeed good. Pizza crust was thin, crunchy and fresh. Loved the dessert apple strudel very much!

Verdict
It was a Saturday night when I went to this restaurant with my friends. It was packed and we did not make any reservation. We waited for about 20 mins but the food was well worth the wait. It is a very authentic Indian cuisine restaurant that serves wide ranges of south and north Indian food (dosa, pratha, thali, biryani, puri and all sorts of traditional Indian cakes and sweets). I would definitely recommend this to my Indian friends who miss curries...

Verdict
My partner and I were looking for lunch late afternoon today. This restaurant was empty when we walked in, thought they were going to close soon, It was 3 pm then. We headed to the counter and ordered our food, the waiting staff was a little rude to us when we ask about the food (the spiciness level and etc). We had a beef Pad Thai and a green curry chicken glass noodle, which tasted just fine to us. In fact, I find that the Pad Thai was too oily for me. The small plates that we asked for (for sharing) were not cleaned properly, still with food stains.

Verdict
Walking down barrack street you would notice this place easily as it is always packed with people (mostly young asian) and the queue extends till outside of the shop. That interested me and without a second thought, I decided to try one today. I had a charcoal roasted milk tea with added black pearl (tapioca) and it tasted so milky and yummy!

Verdict
I walked pass Nao a few times, from the food that they place at the display counter in front of the shop, I thought they were just selling some take-away sushi or bento. I did not bother to walk in at all as it was always packed with people during lunch time. Today my partner and I headed for lunch earlier and we walked pass Nao again, to our surprise, there was no queue in front of the shop and we thought this might be the right time to find out about what kind of restaurant Nao is. So we went in and sat down at one of the small tables for two at the corner. Nao is famous for its hand made ramen, there are 3 different types (plain, chili, spinach) of ramen that you can choose from to go with all sort of soups (or dry). Add on ingredients (extra chicken, pork and etc) is available for extra charge. We had a bowl of udon and a spinach ramen soup. The serving portions are big and we could not finish all of them. I love the texture of the ramen, so fresh and bouncy. I would like to go back again and try the chili flavored ramen.

Verdict
It's a decent cafe with a few tables and seats. I felt very comfortable the moment I walked in with the musics they played. I was greeted with a warm smile at the counter. Before I decided what to order for myself today, I noticed that there was no price list in sight (coffee prices are usually written on a board at the counter in most of the cafes). However, I'm pretty satisfied with the flat white I had.
