Order your creations of alcoholic tea over at Tea Geek. This is the Royal Romance ($22) which is exclusive to Singapore and comprises of oolong tea, vodka, sea coconut, mangosteen and grape juice. The drink was refreshing. However, could only taste grape juice and could not taste the vodka or oolong tea at all. Mangosteen was hard to suck up/eat with the straw provided. Not recommended for the price tag.

Menu had written mashed potato, however, hash brown was given instead. Neither prior notice by staff of the replacement during orders nor explanation when serving the dish was given. Left us really confused and we had to double check the menu. But seemed like every other guest in the restaurant was served hash brown with this dish as well.

The dish looks really good on photo, but duck leg was over-fried and the meat was really dry. Dish got really dry with hash brown as a side. Not recommended and would not order again.

Luscious hollandaise sauce with perfectly poached eggs and smoked salmon on toasted sourdough bread. The salmon roe adds bursts of umami-ness and depth into the dish.

Food is good but service is not acceptable.

Granted that boufe is running a 1 for 1 mains promotion, however, having to wait 75-90mins for our food is unacceptable. After waiting for an hour for our food, we tried to check with a staff if our food was coming. Instead of checking on our orders, the staff brushed us off by saying the guests of table before us have not gotten their food as well. However, we realised that the tables around us who came much later have gotten their food, despite having the same orders.

The prawns and scallops were beautifully charred and seared, with the prawns having a slight smoky taste. The rice pack a punch from that flavourful prawn broth and I love the extra creaminess with the addition of the garlic aioli.

Definitely a must-have when you are here!

Twosome noodles ($9.50+) + 18pcs Fried Wanton ($8+) for lunch. After using 1-1 on burrple beyond for the noodles, it’s only about $5+! $5 for thick slabs of char siew, crunchy roast pork and 3 pcs of wanton! So worth it 😋

Don’t forget to add the crispy lard onto your noodles for the crunch!
