Paddington House of Pancakes - Dessert Pancakes Are Delicious!

 Mariem wanted to try out this place, so here we are. I have to admit, "House of Pancakes" sounds like this restaurant is really passionate about pancakes. The slogan of the restaurant is "we live for pancakes", so far so good.

 
 
We ordered Cheesy Wedges & Fries. It looks good, but it really just passable. The fries are fat and soggy, the wedges are the same ones I can get at any supermarket. Sauces are plain mayonnaise and cheese with a wedge of lemon, which I can also get at any supermarket. If it's all things I can get at any supermarket and there's no real cooking involved, which means that I probably can do as good as or even a better job than them, why am I paying such money for such crap?!

 

 
Djion is grilled lamb shoulder with peach, plum and passionfruit mustard dressing, served with crepes. The combination of peach, plum and passionfruit in the mustard dressing is interesting but they should cut down on the peach and use more plum and passionfruit. Canned peaches are convenient but they are saturated with sugar, it would be great if they can use fresh peaches. This will result in a more tangy sauce, which I believe is what it's meant to taste of.

 

 
Monaco is zucchini and onion pancakes with grilled herbed lamb shoulder with yogurt mint sauce and mashed potatoes. The lamb shoulders are marinated very well and grilled to perfection. The yogurt mint sauce, though innovative, would be better if it is less sweet. The zucchini and onion pancakes is rather interesting, although the zucchini is a little bitter. I am, however, rather annoyed by the presentation of the dish. Why do they stack everything on top of one another? As for the mashed potato, it is so salty I refused to touch it again after one taste.
 

 

 
This is "Original pancakes with fresh strawberries, ice-cream and whipped cream". The pancakes are so soft and fluffy, there is really no need for anything else other than a scoop of vanilla ice-cream. If you eat the pancake with some ice-cream and a strawberry, it's a whole new level of awesomeness. The whipped cream is made with full-cream milk and it is airy and light 

 

 

Pot of Gold, it sounds rich, doesn't it? The dollar pancakes (mini pancakes that are made to resemble giant
dollar coins) are small and tasty. Add on the marshmallows, chocolate sauce, ice-cream and nuts, it is one hell of a dessert. Judging from the happy expression on Mariem's face, she is enjoying every last bit of it.
 
I was taking some photos with my iPhone because I needed to know the names of the food I am eating so that I can write about it and this waiter came up and said in a stern tone "no taking photo of the menu". Okay, so you have a policy that does not allow customers take photos of the menu, but you could have said it in a nicer tone like "miss, please do not take photos of the menu". I felt as if I am back in secondary school all over again, being scolded by the disciplinary master.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
