HK Kim Gary Restaurant
The long queue and all the extreme good/bad reviews got me curious.
When I saw that there was only a duo in front of us, I quickly prompted my hub to stand in the queue. "What's this restaurant?" he asked. To think he has never even heard of Kim Gary nor seen the queue! >_<'
We were lucky to get the window seat!

Soup (7/10)

Pork Chop Baked Rice (8/10)
Chicken baked rice in two sauces (6/10)

Honey Lemon (8/10)

Aloe vera drink (5/10)

Peanut butter toast with condensed milk (6/10)

I thought that was what Ice recommended. It turned out that I got mixed up! Excuse: I read the post more than half a year ago! :P
My hub and I were 'fighting' for the areas covered with peanut butter and condensed milk because the 'coverage' was simply too little. They should be a lil' more generous in the spread.

Gobi
We got this from hub's colleague's baby showers.
Gobi mini cakes (9/10)
It was so yummy, that I popped another into my mouth immediately after I finished one. ^-^

Disturbingly Delightful Desserts.
Pity my hub didn't even try a single one (not that I left him with none). :P
For those who are getting cakes for baby showers or as a Christimas gift (they have other varieties), do consider them!

Rajah Inn (Lunch Porridge Buffet)
If not for Yvonne, I wouldn't know that Rajah Inn serves Porridge Buffet during lunch time!
Porridge Buffet (7/10)
The food is decent, nothing short of those you find in food courts/kopitiam. For the variety and the price of $6.90 per pax, I'd say it's value for money!

Griller
I am not surprised to read bad reviews about this restaurant, because I too, had tasted really bad food here before. And it was on the occasion when I suggested to dine there in an outing. I was a bit embarrassed by the lousy recommendation that I have made back then. :P
Maybe 'inconsistency' is a better word to describe the food here, for all the food were to my liking on my previous visit.
Drinks (8/10)
Mushroom Soup (8/10)
There are whole mushroom chunks (not bits) in the soup - quite uncommon for a reasonably priced restaurant like this.

Caesar Salad (7/10)

Pizza

Spizzico
Before we travel, we were strongly encouraged to try the nutella crepe in spizzico. Aren't we glad that we took this advice!
Nutella Crepe (10/10)
Imagine.
Soft, thin layers of crepe filled with rich, chocolatey nutella. One bite sends the excess brown substance oozing out from the crepe and to the corner of your mouth, which you quickly, but subtley licked off.
Two very simple ingredients combined to give you that ever-so-satisfying treat, leaving you to ask for more when the box emptied.

Italian Pizza
Pizza (9/10)
Do not belittle this ordinary looking pizza. It may not have rich toppings (in fact, it has nothing more than tomato!), but with its thin and crispy crust (albeit charred), it's pizza at its best.
This is the first time I manage to finish four slices of a pizza at one go!

ooo... he's one happy Italian chef.

Hot dog bun (6/10)
I think they better stick to what they are best at - pizzas.

Jungfraujoch
Gucci
We were curious and curiosity cost us 10Euros each. :P
That's the price of a cup of Gucci coffee. I guess the most pressing question you could have for me right now is, 'Any differences from the coffee we have?'
Gucci Menu

"No" shall be my reply. It's just the brand, really.
What probably makes up for the price is the chocolates that came complimentary with the coffee. Then again, we can't go wrong with chocolates in Europe, can we? :P

Marche
I have been pestering my hub to bring me to Marche for years. When he finally did bring me to Heeren, the outlet was closed down.
Little do I expect that my first time at Marche would be in Europe.
Chicken Cordon Bleu and baked potatoes (9/10)

Grilled chicken (5/10)
There was a long queue at the 'Grill' station. I guess we were all misled. This was nothing like the ready-made Chicken Cordon Bleu above.



One final look at the delicious crusty chicken...
