Food For Thought
12 Nov 2012For full review and photos, please visit: http://fun-hideout.blogspot.sg/2012/11/food-for-thought.html
As its slogan says, it's a place of Good Food For A Good Cause. =)
Came here with my gal frens for a early dinner and good thing we did! Why? Because the breakfast & pancake menu only serve until 530pm. So remember to come here earlier!
Our orders:
1) Full Works - $18
Lot of variety served in one plate and the colourful items surely whet up our appetite!
2) Sausage Tomato Linguine - $15
Really liked this linguine ~ I can taste natural sweetness of fresh tomato in this dish, which definitely tasted much better than those bottled tomato pasta sauce.
3) Back Ribs - $24
Kinda sweet for one person consumption. It's actually a better idea to share the dish where you can "share" the sweetness and enjoyed the tender meat falling apart from the ribs. Served with lotza tomato and creamy mash potato.

Simple Comfort Food
07 Oct 2012Here are some of the food tried: for more details visit http://dairycream.blogspot.sg/2012/10/food-for-thought.html
Pumpkin Cream Soup
Natural sweetness and thick in taste. Not too much cream added and a slight grainy texture gives a kind of rustic feel to this simple dish
Hoi Sin Marinated Baby Back Ribs With potato cheese gratin
Look at that long slab of meat, flavoursome but not too salty. Meat is tender with bits of fats. Good for sharing even btw 3 person. Salad is same as the cheese toast but lacks dressing
Butterscotch apple crumble with vanilla ice cream and sautéed cherries and berries (good for 2)
Ice cream came like a big snowball. Crumble is average and is more cakey lumpy rather than buttery or crunchy. Prefer apple slices to apple chunks and a pity only to have tasted the butterscotch sauce at the very end as it was buried at the base.

I see that there are quite a couple of bad reviews regarding service. For us, we went there for dinner, 8 people. The waiter was welcoming at the door and as we were there on a Friday evening, without reservations, naturally we had expected to wait. He told us to wait for 30 mins which was a rather accurate estimation. I find that the service was good as water was refilled promptly and the staff were all very friendly. Even though there was a queue outside, the staff did not appear to hurry us throughout the meal, making the experience pleasant.
Food wise, it wasn't exceptional but we felt was reasonable. If your purse strings are tight, opt for pasta which are cheaper and I feel more value for money. The servings for main courses are rather huge and thus, you can go for that if you're ravenous.
If you don't like waiting, make a reservation in advance as their seats are limited and if you would not like to sit outdoors. Other than that, I feel that the theme of the restaurant is thorough which gave me a strong impression of the restaurant.
