Came here twice at least. Venue: A beautiful place. Romantic decorating. Cozy but causal setting. Larger outdoor area. Lovely background music. Good atomphere. Clean & tidy. --- 8.2/10 Service: run by Koreans. A "Call button" under the table to call for order and service. No tap water provided. Wait persons were polite. The young girl was nicer, smarter and always smiled. Besides washing bowl, ought to give us extra big bowl /plates for shells when we ordered seafood tower. Better introduce more about their menu especially somethings had been changed from menu. As we asked, told to wait 25 minutes for Seafood Tower. --- 7.5/10 Food & Beverage; Menu was old and torn. Mainly western cuisine with some Korean dishes. No wine list was given to us. Doesn't mention the ingredients of Mocktails. Only know the main fruit juice of the mocktails. Beautiful presentation. Mocktail, $11@: tried Paloma Fizz (Grapefruit). Homemade Iced Tea, $8@: Tried Yuzu Green tea. Good value. Good portion.
Seafood Tower, $149 for 2pp (-- 7.6/10): Price is slightly high but acceptable. There are 3 tiers. Top tier is 4 pcs of thick Salmon slices, colored in red (?by beetroot juice) served with apple puree on the bed of green salad. Pretty good and yummy. Much better if served tidy. Middle tier: 4 Baked scallop with cheese, 2 Pan fried Barra steak, 2 deep fried Pepper Calamari. 2 round Fish cakes. Served with ketchup and mayo and the bed of other green salad. We ate the scallop immediately, but the cheese became harder as cooled down. Scallops were small. Barra steaks was normal. Calamari was big pieces and ok, not so pepper. Bottom tier: 7 sucked oysters (3 oysters were original flavor + 2 different flavors), 7 garlic butter prawns, 1 Spicy Crab, 1Garden Salad with ? dressing (didn't ask, didn't tell what dressing). Oysters were very small but fresh. Prawns weren't de-veined (disappointed for that. Supposed de-vein in a decent restaurant). Good size but Lack of garlic butter flavor. Crab was good in flavor and size. Large portion of salad (lettuce, carrots, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, spinach & onion) ok fresh.
Cakes: There are a lot of cakes displayed. It says Korean style cakes. We took Earl Grey pound cake, $6, and Chocolate Banana Cake, $8. Look pretty. Reasonable price. We took away cakes only. They didn't use usual fancy cake box for my cakes. Chocolate banana cake is taller and softer than pound cake. It's easier to be deformed/compressed by the brown small box. It's better using higher container. Chocolate banana cake is pretty yummy. Good in texture. Also not too sweet. My cake was deformed slightly before home. --- 8/10 Earl grey pound cake was a bit dry. Flavor is...
Read moreIt is hard to pick at exactly what point the sub par experience at Phat Joint went down the drain. It was somewhere between a burger not having on it what the menu said, the fact that they changed our order without telling us because we had a voucher even though they originally said the voucher was able to be used with our order, and how I ordered a raspberry juice and received a different brand pear juice after being told that it was the correct one. However, it probably all fell apart when my partner ordered a burger, that had no mention of any sauce on the burger, which came out lathered with a spicy sauce. When we informed the manager he pretty much told us it’s on the menu before he read the menu and realised it was wrong and then told us that all burgers come with a house sauce despite no mention of it. I don’t have a problem with things not always being to my liking. However, I think it is a problem when no respect is given to customers who are polite and come and spend their hard earned money. I will never return to somewhere that does not...
Read moreMy partner are I attended on a Thursday evening. There was two tables seated when we arrived. The night began with great and quick service. We received our food quickly as expected on a quiet night and it was enjoyable food. My partner requested and takeaway container and another drink as we planned to order desert. The server proceeded to clean glasses behind the bar without interaction with us after we had stacked our plates to show we were finished for around 15 minutes. A staff member sat down from us and began using a laptop while we waited. We decided to leave after about 20 minutes and went elsewhere. Pretty disappointed seeing as we were alone in...
