JtheJon: Alcohol

Timbre+

Timbre+ is many things. It is an upgraded urban food hall. It offers a diversity of restaurant-grade food and casual eats at affordable prices. It is enlivened by multi-dimensional entertainment experiences. But the single focus is making sure you eat well.

Went to Timbre+ chill with my friends/colleagues after work. Timbre+ is located around one-north! It's about 10 minutes walk from MRT station. They offer wide range of food and it has drink stall called Bottle shop and it offer a more than 50 types of beer. So alcoholic can try out once by one.

We order Jim Beam Bourbon, cause it's on promotion and one of friend order due to the mug.

My Verdict:
Timbre+ is one of the good place to chill after work with friends or colleagues. It's has live band everyday, the only things is, this place is not air-conditioned! It get a little warm and stuffy after-while.

Cafe Review: Coastal Rhythm Cafe and Bar @ ECP

Coastal Rhythm – Conveniently located at East Coast Parkway, the irresistible charm of this waterfront bistro combines with the tastiest Nanyang favourites and modern European cuisine to offer a meeting point for all water sports enthusiasts or families looking for a fun day out.

Take a break from your hectic lifestyle and immerse in the café and bar’s rustic and laid back atmosphere. For thrill seekers, pump up your adrenaline rush with Singapore Wake Park’s exhilarating cable-skiing activities.

Don't forget to visit our sister outlets (The Coastal Settlement, Jubilee Coffeehouse and Meyer House Restaurant & Bar) at Changi!

Enjoying my meal with a good scenery.

Kesketh Shiraz (Red wine) -

I am not really a wine person but sometime some food taste good in red wine!

Beef Salad -

Started off our dinner with a good salad!! The salad is served with beef , lettuce, potatoes, hard boiled egg, and salad dressing also their home-made special sauce! The beef was extremely soft and tender. The secret dressing was very flavorful, fragrance and refreshing! I am a salad person but this salad was really good.

Taste: 3/5

Fried Calamari -

Just your average drinking snacks!!

Taste: 1/5

Mac and Cheese -

The ladies favorite!! This Mac and Cheese was not just your average Mac and cheese!! The cheese was well melted to the macaroni, cheesy and flavorful! Every bite you will get a mouthful of goodness cheese!! It's really addictive, I will definitely be back for more.

Taste: 4.25/5

Nasi Lemak -

This plate of Nasi Lemak came with, Otah, egg, chicken wing, fried fish, peanut, ikan bilis, rice, cucumber and sambal chili. The sambal chili was the bomb, it was spicy, fragrance and addictive other than the sambal chili, the rest was just your average nasi lemak!!

Taste: 1.25/5

Beer Battered Otah -

My favorite dish among all!! The otah was super addictive that I can finish this whole plate by myself!! The otah was soft, moist and spicy! The beer battered was good. Well combined with the otah!!

Taste: 4/5

Otah and Chips -

This otah wasn't as good as the beer battered otah!! The otah wasn't well pan fried as the bottom of the otah was over-cooked still it was hard while the top part was soft. The flavors was lacking too. The pink coleslaw was interesting and good. It as better than KFC, cause i really like KFC coleslaw but this was way better than them.

Taste: 2/5

Beer Battered Fish and Chips -

This fish and chips wasn't that appetizing. I believe I can find a better fish and chips somewhere else!

Taste: 0.7/5

Waffles with a scoop of Ice cream -

What is dinner without a dessert!! We order a waffle with a scoop of Belgium chocolate Ice cream topped up with berries. The waffles was very crisp, thin and flavorful. The Belgium chocolate Ice cream was perfect for this waffle!!

Taste: 4/5

Cheers to the friendship!!

Lantern Rooftop Bar @ The Fullerton Hotel

Hello Peeps!! It will be a short update on this!! Went have a drink with my bro after our dinner nearby. We wanted to try kinki bar and restaurant but it was full house so we decided to just have a drink at The lantern.

About Lantern Bar:
Framed by an infinity lap pool and green landscaping, the stylish rooftop bar offers dazzling panoramic views of Marina Bay waterfront and Singapore’s skyscraper skyline. Chill to the grooves and sensual beats of house music while savouring gourmet snacks, fine champagnes, wines and signature cocktails whipped up by our resident mixologist.

I forgot what we had order but we ordered some special mix cocktail from the bar as they are famous for their cocktail.

My Verdict:
The lantern bar is not really a good place to chill after work and the beverages will cost more than the usual bar. And it will always be crowed with tourists. So I suggest if you wanna chill here if only you are staying at fullerton bay hotel.

Lantern Rooftop Bar @ The Fullerton Hotel
Sundays to Thursdays: 8.00 a.m. to 1.00 a.m.
Fridays, Saturdays and Eve of Public Holidays: 8.00 a.m. to 2.00 a.m.

Lunch
