Mee siam @ RM6.90++

it's nice but spicy! 🔥

bread toast (Kaya + butter) @ RM2.90++

Bread toast (butter) 

polo bun original (butter) @ RM5.90++

Don't recommend this... It's not very crispy and can find better ones easily

Also tried the polo bun (butter) @ RM

Also not recommended.. it's kind of those polo bun from bakery shop

Soft and not crispy

heres the menu

an additional 6% service charge + 6% tax

Here the menu

A new shop opening around the area.. bought the "char siew bun" puff.. smells good, char siew is nice but the skin is not my type (it's pong piah skin instead of those buttery puff skin)

hot tomato

Back for more pasta from hot tomato.. am trying to avoid spicy food, so no aglio olio today

Carbonara @ $10.90++

Saw alot of ppl eating this previously, so give it a try... Not as good as I expect.. creamy but feels dry... Like it being not too salty

Prawn linguine @ $13.90++

Quite a fair bit of prawns 🍤, mushroom 🍄, cherry tomatoes 🍅

Still not as nice as aglio olio too

The must have truffle mashed potato @ $4.90++

It's without sauce, very soft and smooth potato topped with truffle.. nice! Not too creamy

sod

This is nice!

Pesto mushroom baked rice @ $9.90+

I chose this cos of pesto... Like the pesto pasta so tried this...

It's so much nicer than the salmon baked rice (white and dry rice, only the top has cheese w salmon.. find it soso)

Could be cos of the "water" from the mushroom, rice is not as dry and there's cheese too! 👍🏼👍🏼 But don't really taste pesto

Fish and chips @ $13.90+

See the smoke as you cut the hit and crispy fish served with fries or wedges

Coslow is good! But abit too little haha!

hot tomato

Been years since I last eat Hot Tomato.. always rmb them with nice pastas and it's still good but less oily

Salmon Mango Salsa @ $14.20++

Salmon is normal, nothing special

Char grilled chicken chop @ $11.90++

Chicken chop is nice, with choice of black pepper or teriyaki sauce.. chose black pepper sauce

Chicken is tender and can do without the sauce

Pasta is the same for both, portion is large. Prefer the char grilled chicken to salmon

Had a side to share - truffle mashed potato @ $4.90++

It's without sauce, very soft and smooth potato topped with truffle.. nice! Not too creamy

Add $2.90++ for fresh tomato soup and a drink

Tomato soup comes with 2 slice of lightly toasted bread

Unlike mushroom soup, can't seems to finish the whole bowl by oneself... Maybe cos of the acidicity? Though the bread is not garlic bread but still good

red ginger

Looks good ya? It's really good! One of bthe small shops at basement sells Malaysian food

Shortlisted a few of them, and we chose this...

Penang kway teow @ $9.50

Asked for less spicy, but it's still very spicy!! But it's good! There's the wok smell 👍🏼👍🏼

Nasi lemak @ $7

Sides are standard but can choose veg from the display rack (meant for veg rice style)

Fried chicken is not as good as it looks though

Rice is fragrant mixed with the chilli 👍🏼👍🏼

Fried rice looks good too! Shall come for the fried rice next time
