Fountain Terrace

10th September, Thursday

Came to Suntec during lunchtime for Comex, so me and my colleagues grabbed a hasty lunch at Fountain Terrace.

Claypot curry chicken with rice (合利)

This was quite all right. The fact that it was extremely hot (heat, not spicy) helped to make it taste better. And it didn't have a thick layer of oil on top, unlike many other curry chicken dishes elsewhere.

V's verdict: 6.5/10

Kopi Tiam

30th July, Thursday

No, this is not a normal kopi tiam along the street. It's the Kopi Tiam at Swissotel The Stamford.

Curry chicken
The scoring point of this was that there was very little oil on top of it. The curry was thick and tasty, but not hot enough for me. The chicken was quite good, but the potatoes were a bit dry. $16.50

V's verdict: 7.5/10

Southbank

11th June, Thursday

A Thai restaurant at Boat Quay. Thai food doesn't really appeal to me, but my colleagues felt like going, so I just went along. We ordered the set lunch for $10.50 each, and top up another $2 for Tom Yam soup. Depending on the number of people, you may actually get a "bonus" side dish --- 3 of us had 4 dishes.

Chilli Fish Fillet



This was quite okay. The chilli didn't taste like chilli at all though, it was absolutely not spicy at all! But the fish was fried until it was just crispy and yet not too dry. And it wasn't too oily too.

V's verdict: 7/10


Thai Green Curry



Is green curry supposed to be spicy? Well, this was once again not spicy at all. The chicken was tough though and didn't taste good.

V's verdict: 6/10


Chilli prawns



All the spicy food in this restaurant don't taste spicy at all! GARR. Other than that, this sauce was not bad and had lots of egg inside, reminding me of chilli crab sauces. The prawns were quite fresh and were not bad.

V's verdict: 7/10


Tom Yam Soup

Not bad, except that the squid was a bit tough.

V's verdict: 6.5/10


Bean sprouts with salted fish

The salted fish didn't taste strong enough, but otherwise it was all right.

V's verdict: 6.5/10

Killiney Cafe

4th May, Monday

The outlet at Golden Shoe Car Park. It's the first time I visited this outlet for lunch; normally I would only come here for coffee.

Curry chicken with rice



One of my colleagues recommended this, so I decided to give it a try. The gravy was not bad, but there was a thick layer of oil on top which I removed (it filled up one whole sauce plate). The rice was hard, so I had to add more curry onto it in order to soften it. The curry wasn't spicy enough though. The chicken was decent, while the potatoes were quite good. $7.80

V's verdict: 6.5/10
