Lava Cake with Ice Cream - $9.90

We decided to try their lava cake since we love lava cake. We paired up with a scoop of earl grey ice cream. The lava cake was moist, chocolaty but sad that the chocolate never flow out. The ice cream was flavorful and rich, you can really taste the earl grey fragrance in it.

Food: 2.8/5

Ambiance: 2/5

Service: 4/5

My Verdict:

The ice cream was really good, it worth a try! They served waffles too, i heard from the other customer that the waffles was very crispy and light, and it goes well with any flavors of ice cream.

Food Review: Ye ShangHai Teochew Porridge

Ye Shanghai Teochew Porridge (夜上海潮洲粥) is a favourite hotspot for night owls. Their opening hours from 1030am - 530am, Located at bukit merah. Finally went to try it with my friends. It getting crowded and crowded during middle of the night.

Cabbage -

I find their cabbage was super bland and lacking of flavors.

Taste: 0.25/5

Brasied Beancurb Skin -

It was smooth, savoury and a tad sweet. Best go with a bowl of rice.

Taste: 2/5

Fried Omelette -

It feel like, i am eating fried carrot cake. The texture is similar to fried carrot cake just that this was softer and more eggy.

Taste: 2.4/5

Braised Pork Belly -

The perfect portion of fats and meat. I won't even get sick of eating one whole plate of this. The skin wasn't that oily and fats. The eat was soft and tender. Well braised meats.

Taste: 4/5

Otah -

The otah was super good. Highly recommended!! The otah was spicy, fragrance, soft and moist. One of the few best otah that i ever had so far.

Taste: 4.5/5

Porridge -

Light braised gravy.

Food: 1.8/5
Ambiance: Coffee Shop ambiance
Service: N.A

My Verdict:
It's a good place for supper but if only you had a car/bike if not it will be very inconvenience for you to go there during late night. But it surely worth the travel and money. Otah is a must-try dish. The bill was $14.60 for 5 dishes, 1 bowl of rice, 2 bowl of porridge.

Cafe Review: Butterscotch

Butterscotch is a halal cafe and it's located in the neighbourhood of Bukit Merah. The cafe has opened for more than a years old now and it attracted more and more malay people come and visit them. The cafe is really a quiet, lovely place to chill out and relax by.

Interior:

Menu:

Menu: You can find their menu on their website too. Just simply click on the link!!

Food:

Latte - $5.50

The latte was below-par. The coffee aroma wasn't strong enough and it was very acidic.

Taste: 0/5

Truffle Fries - $9

This must be the worst truffle fries that i ever eaten!! No truffle aroma, overly salty and it was worst than a normal fries.

Taste: 0/5

Ramly Meets Wendy Burger - $14

The burger came with wedges, shitake mushrooms, and the burger was filled up with cabbage, tomato, cucumber, egg, beef patty topped up with mayonnaise and mushroom sauce.

The burger was just pretty average. The beef patty was less flavorful and it was overcooked. The mushroom sauce was quite bland and salty.

Taste: 0.5/5

Chicken Chop - $14

The chicken chop was served with wedges and coleslaw.

The chicken chop was tender but it was just a normal chicken chop that you can get it any western food places. The sauce was appetizing enough. The coleslaw and wedges was just normal. Nothing outstanding in this dish.

Taste: 0.5/5

Food: 0/5

Ambiance: 0.5/5

Service: 1/5

Overall, The cafe is charging Service charge but it doesn't has GST. The food quality was super duper bad!! The ambiance was quite noisy too as it was quite packed and the people is talking loudly in the cafe. The lighting is making us sleepy as it was yellow and deem light. Obviously it was not worth a visit.
