To-gather Cafe

It was Chee Wee's birthday yesterday and we had a hard time deciding what to have for dinner. I wanted to treat him to something good but at the same time not too expensive. My brother recommended To-gather Cafe as it was reasonably priced and the food was not bad. To our surprise, the cafe was located right beside our new house that will be ready in 2017.

It was not easy to find a car park lot even on a Tuesday night. We drove around several car parks and they were all full. Got lucky at the car park right in front of the cafe!

The cafe was pretty full for a weekday night. They have several tables outside and the space inside was not too shabby. We like that the cafe has a very cosy feel. Another plus point is that they do not charge GST and service charge!

We ordered:

Ice Mango Latte
Iced Lemon Tea

Soup of the day

Mexican Quesadilla

Cordon Bleu Pork Chop

Pasta Carbonara

Cheesy Japanese Baked Curry Rice

Lava Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream

The total bill came up to S$53.10.
I was expecting to pay more than this but am happy that I got to try many of their dishes with not a very expensive bill. The drinks were not bad. We love the Iced Lemon Tea. Mexican Quesadilla was pretty good too. For the Carbonara, the sauce was great but Chee Wee felt that there was a strong starchy taste to the pasta. Cheesy Japanese Baked Curry Rice was pretty good too. I couldn't finish the baked rice because it was too filling. When I ordered the Lava Cake, I requested for a candle. I did not mention that it was for Chee Wee's birthday and they served the cake with a nicely decorated plate with the words Happy Birthday written on it. They even played a birthday song in the cafe. It was a pretty nice surprise for the birthday boy!

Weekends!

Had ramen at Ramen Kagetus Arashi last weekend.

It was an impromptu thing as we didn't know what else to eat. 

I think that going to Japan multiple times spoilt our taste buds.

We saw that the shop was quite crowded previously when we walked past so we decided to give it a go. Sad to say, it does not meet my expectations of a good ramen. 

To me, a good ramen has to be slightly less salty because if it is too salty or just nice at the beginning, it is pretty hard to finish the whole serving. Secondly, THE EGG. 

How I rank ramen is:

1. Soup

2. Egg

3. Noodles

The soup is alittle too salty/ rich. Egg was horrible. As I know how to marinate my own ramen eggs at home, I have really high expectations of the egg in ramen. Japan's ramen eggs are DA BOMB. The original egg that comes with Ramen Kagetus Arashi's Ramen is a hard boiled egg and it is not possible to change to the semi hard yolk. We had to buy an additional egg. Egg was overcooked. 

Noodles was alright I guess. 

One of the rare days when I'm in a picture as I am usually the one taking the picture.

The Hmmmmmmm face.

His order of some curry rice. Pepper lunch's version is better.

 

My ramen does not look appetizing because I requested for no vegetables.

We probably will not head back there again as we have had better ones in Singapore. 

Till the next Ramen!

Also over the same weekend, I went to my favourite Kim Dae Mun Korean food stall again!

This time with alot more people!

Whole table of food!

My usual spicy chicken soup.

Another usual!

Love bringing new people to try my favourite food.

Happy customers!

 Kim Dae Mun will be moving to #02-17/18 of the same building starting June 2014! Please take note!

Moving on to Thai food! Favourite version of glass noodle salad!

Same taste, different place.

These pictures are making me hungry now. 

It's almost 12 midnight so i have to control myself.

On a side note, I'm loving the new camera!
