If you want some authentic hainanese style western food, this humble family eatery should definitely be on your list.
I have been here many times and it's still my family's favorite place for the amazing food, service and the price.
While they are famous for their Ox Tail, which is my dad's favorite dish and he ordered anyway, I ordered one of their newer item on the menu, the Rosemary Lamb Shank. I can't fully stress how soft and tender the meat is; I simply just need a fork for the meal. It's just so juicy and the marination speaks length for the arduous preparation process.
One of the things I really like about this place is the hospitality. Even before you start ordering your food, you will be warmly greeted by the staff and ushered to your seat. You will also be immediately attracted to the surroundings filled with stuffs of the previous century.
Lastly you will be extremely pleased to hear that they DO NOT charge extra GST and Service charges. If you are in Joo Chiat area, you should definitely try this place.
Visited this lovely diner on Friday with my family.
A perfect venue to enjoy good food and a walk down memory lane with their very unique setting. From gramophones to old school decor, ideal for a little show and tell. Great fun for different generations.
Food was superb, highly recommend everyone to try their beef stew and hainanese pork chop.
We had a good chat with the owner, probably one of the most down-to-earth person I have ever met.
A feast both for your eyes and taste buds, it’s a MUST HAVE!
