Yummy brownies

Girlfriend and I decided to drop by Melvado's after a post dinner walk at Botanical Gardens. I decided to check this place out after hearing of their signature brownies. It was a Sunday night at 8pm and the restaurant was quiet, with only a pair of ladies and a family of 4 seated in the cafe, other than ourselves.

We checked out the black and white kisses brownies. The brownie was piping hot, the chocolate (black & white Hershey's and the chocolate topping) is rich and isn't too sweet. Yummy! It costs $4.90 without any ice cream (which sets you back by another $1) and doesn't have any additional 10% service tax nor 7% GST. This is certainly very reasonable pricing. I noted payment by AMEX and NETS gives you additional discounts which makes this place really worth it try.

This cafe serves a full array of main courses and drinks. Its a quiet environment which offers air conditioned dining and al fresco. We certainly would like to return to check out the main courses on our next visit.

They also offer flat screen TV which was showing a movie from cable television. Thankfully the volume wasn't too loud and you can still enjoy a conversation without being distracted by the movie if you sit furthur away from the television set.

The only problem is that indoor seating capacity is limited, leaving you with al fresco dining, which in turn can be uncomfortable if the weather is warm.

on Checkers Brasserie: Value for money Japanese buffet
Is the sake optional? Or is $53 a fixed price for buffet AND sake even if you don't take it?
