Olive Vine

Located at the basement of Marina Square along the Marina Link is a cosy little restaurant called Olive Vine. Doctor Chong and my colleagues have lunch there regularly and they are full of praises. I decided to check it out for myself.

 
 
Olive Vine offers value-for-money Deluxe Set Meal and Executive Set Menu.
 
 
Everything is very neat and tidy at Olive Vine. After the recent rodent infestation at Hotpot Culture, Grade A from NEA assures the cleanliness of the food.
 
 I really wanted to try the beef stew that Doctor Chong was raving about, which was in the Deluxe Set Menu, but I also wanted to try the carrot cake. The staff was very kind to let me top up $3 for the Executive Set Meal, so I got to have the best of both worlds.

 

 
Mushroom Soup tastes like watered down version of Campbell soup. You can't really expect too much from a set meal.
 
 
Beef Stew (with choice of rice or bread) is surprisingly delicious. Chunks of tender beef cooked with potatoes and carrots. This is definitely one of the best beef stews I have tasted in a while, and at this price, it's definitely a steal.
 
 
Carrot Cake looks very ordinary, but one bite into it and you will know the meaning of "don't judge a book by its over". It is soft and moist; it would have been perfect when topped with cream cheese.

I can definitely understand why Olive Vine is fast becoming a popular lunch spot for people working around the area. Friendly staff, better-than-average food, cosy ambience and value-for-money set meals makes this restaurant the perfect place to have a quick lunch. Better still, there is No GST and Service Charge,

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...
