Manpuku @ Tampines1
At the back of my mind, I noe we should visit this place to have our own feel (after hearing some say this place serves gd food, has gd concept, while some say not worth the money)
So, on a Thursday evening, I talked livingstone into having our dinner there.
not bad, but didnt leave an impression.
...............I dunno wat to say....
It looks appetising ya? and most of the dining tables had a serving of this.
livingstone and I were anticipating for this dish with high expectations....prove to be wrong.
arghhh.....now the taste of this dish came back to me jus by looking at this pic.... almost sent me to the toilet throwing up now as i type. I KID U NOT.
awful!
(to make matters seem worse, we actually struggled to finish this dish)
this.....cold, tasteless. only the chicken cutlet is passable.
if there is no ketchup, I would hv throw this dish into the bin.
AWFUL agn.
(oh yes, livingstone commented that century sq's food court served better omu rice!)
ok, of cos I couldn't miss the much raved abt fruit tart.
ordered this pc of strawberry and choc tart and paid $1 for a cuppa earl grey.
Didnt leave a lasting impression for me either, the tart contains mostly of whipped cream.
Though I shld say that the sweetness was actually just nice. But it didnt compensate for the price I paid ($7.80 for this slice). I guess I was expecting a much better tart.
All in all, the damage for that evening was $35. I didnt scream at that price tag, but we were very sure that this will be our LAST visit.
As for the environment, it was messy and cramp to us. Imagine snaking pass the passageway with bowls of hot ramen soup or hotplates and with children walking fast around you....I see that as a potential hazard....
and Thank GOD! we didnt have to q up to go in.
anw, some bloggers mention that the restaurant had gone bananas after the japanese chef left the locals on their own while having trained them for a mth....
and, for a consolation, bbtara was quietly sleeping in her stroller while weenjoy swallow our food.
Another eatery which proves Shodoku is still a better choice for food and environement with the same concept.
