Cumi Bali

Went to Cumi Bali @ 66 Tanjong Pagar Road for some good balinese fair. We went in without much expectations but came out really satisfied and happy. The service level could be improved though but I guess Singapore is having a labour crunch now and everyone is having problems with the service staff. It took us quite some time to get their attention and multiple orders before we could get our water topped up. But yeah. 

Anyway, the food was amazing. Tasted very good and pretty authentic. You have to absolutely order the Otah. They literally have an entire fish in it. The satay, beef, chicken, egg, kangkong that we ordered still lingers in my mind. 

Super high in fat but too super yummy. Can't wait to go back to eat it again. 

Fish and Co Express

Went to try out the Fish and Co express at University town. We ordered a seafood platter and a Spaghetti Marinara. This is a fast food chain run by Fish and Co. We thought the concept was pretty interesting. We spent about $15 in total for the 2 items on the menu. It was standard comfort food although a tad oily cause the seafood platter was completely fried. Nonetheless I thought it was worth the value that we paid, so not complaining. 

The Spaghetti was pretty al dente and not too soggy which I enjoyed. My dinner date liked the fish but didn't like the nachos as they were too soft. Will be back to try the other items when I'm in a comfort food mood ;)

Sapore Italiano @ Utown

Decided to drop by University Town's Sapore Italiano for some good old italian fare. We ordered this pork cutlet thing, a chicken salad and a pesto pizza. They don't look quite like the picture and we weren't very impressed by the pork and chicken salad. The pizza however was pretty good. Although the pesto wasn't evenly spread out, we loved how it tasted. The herbs worked well together. 

It wasn't really pricey, we paid around $25 in total for the food. If I were to come back again, will definitely just go for the pizza. 

El Patio @ Holland Village

Had cravings for Mexican food again and decided to go to El Patio at Holland Village to eat them Mexican. Ordered the caesar salad, fried Jalapenos and El Patio Special Fajitas. I think they smeared some kind of anchovy sauce on top of the croutons(?) for the caesar salad. It was so super salty and I think it would be better if we mixed them into salad. 

Fried Jalapenos was good and the guac on the side made a nice complement to the dish. I know, it's so super fat but at least the mozzerella inside the Jalapenos wasn't overwhelming so we could still finish everything on the plate. The Fajitas was nice, and we polished everything off though we left 1 of the fajita wraps untouched trying to go low(er) carbs. 

All in all, a good meal and we will be back again :)

Chocolate Devotion @ TCC Bugis

Cheat day today and I decided to indulge in some chocolate lava cake. Went to TCC at Bugis and ordered their chocolate devotion - approx $12. It is so good, the moment you slice open the cake, the molten chocolate inside actually flows out in a gush. I'm not kidding! Most of the molten cakes that I've had were pretty dismal, even the one at Morton's ($38 mind you) didn't ooze out of the cake much. 

Am very pleased with this particular one that I had at Bugis, will definitely be back :D
