Came by as I had bought a Chope 1-for-1 mains voucher during one of their sales. The seating was a little bit cramped, such that if I held my hands out I think i could reach for the neck of the adjacent guests. Not ideal for dates (or for sharing private gossip). Also, the chairs are really uncomfortable, like, they were too low and not compatible with the height of the table.

In any case, we settled for the Chilli Lobster Malfadine ($30) and the Sweet and Sour Sticky Pork Ribs ($27). First things first, both dishes were served at room temperature - which in an air-con environment, meant it was almost cold! Did not like that at all. For the pasta, the sauce is reminiscent of the likes of chilli crab, though with lobster (a somewhat tough and obviously frozen lobster). Overall, felt it was somewhat one-dimensional and the poor quality of the lobster meat really let the dish down.

The pork ribs was, putting aside the coldness of it, actually fall-off-the-bone. Kudos to that! The sauce leaned heavily towards the sweet side (barely any zestiness/tanginess/sourness) and did not add much. I also missed any semblance of char or caramelisation that would have added an oomph to the meat. The achar and crackers were nice, and I have to give a special shoutout to the baby potatoes because they were so damn GOOD!! BUT they only gave 4 - FOUR - small halves?? That's absurd!

All in all, thought the dishes we had had so much more to improve on, and while the service we received was decent, there were some dissatisfaction / confusion / miscommunication at our adjacent table which we were full on spectators of - the tables are that close - to which I thought "hey luckily it didn't happen to us".

Overall, would I return? Eghh only if I had some vouchers to take advantage of, else I would much rather spend the money on other quality resto-bars.
