After seeing the raving reviews about the food at Mt Alvernia Hospital and the fact that I was there for my medical review, I decided to give the food there a try to quell my curiosity.
I was ushered to my seat and given an iPad to order food. There were quite a number of choices to choose from. Eventually, I settled on vegetarian hor fun (flat rice noodles) and my boy selected wanton noodles.
Both dishes were sumptuous. The cafe is very generous with their ingredients and the serving portion was huge. Care had been taken to ensure that the vegetables were cleansed thoroughly and soy beans were used to make the broth.
Service was good too! Area was also very clean. The waitresses were also very helpful and friendly.
It is a pity that Grab food delivery isn't available.
Do remember to pay after dining in. Apparently, someone did not do so during my visit and caused an uproar amongst the waitresses. Such a thing should not be happening at this honest and humble eatery.
If you’re surprised by how a small eatery in a hospital has such high ratings on Google, please be assured that your eyes are not fooling you.
Cafe 820 may seem very unassuming in terms of its appearance, and lighting is always on the dim side, but the food that they serve genuinely packs a punch. Their Laksa has got to be my favorite dish of theirs, and I’ve heard nice things about the Hokkien Mee too. If you go to Mt A, give their food a shot!
Takeaway hokkien mee. When I opened the container the smell was wonderful.
Very flavourful and good texture of noodle. Wetness was just right
