hey neighbour

even though we stay so near each other, that doesn't mean we get to meet up often. especially with her being busy with her dissertation and me with my never ending project submissions, finding the ideal time slot to meet up is almost as rare as the solar eclipse. so whenever when we do meet up, we prefer to spend the time catching up on each other's life over a nice simple dinner.

this time around, we head to Swensen's at Ion Orchard!





i had the chilli crab pasta. they used soft shell crab for this. tasted oh so normal and they charged around $15 for this. not really something to rave about.






fara had the spicy seafood pasta. you know what, both pasta tasted the same. just that one had soft shell crab and the other had slices of fishcake and crabstick. blimey!


if you have a strong penchant for microwaveable food from 7 eleven and enjoy using $10 notes as toilet paper, then i suggest you put the restaurant on speed dial. but if you're looking for excellent service standard then you're in luck, i know an indian rojak uncle at ang mo kio market who has more sincerity than all of the staff here combined.

the only salve factor probably in this place is the ambience. quiet enough for a chit chat but if you're expecting somewhere romantic then i suggest the botanic gardens. hey, at least its free.
