Say Cheezecake

100% tempting and squeal-incurring.



What a new discovery for a dinner and cheesecake fix. Simply by looking at these cakes on display, i could already determine my entrance. Trying them is a definite yes-yes.



The interior was spacious and smartly-furnished to give a modern yet comfortable ambience. Settle in and choose from a range of western-local fusion dishes- all freshly whipped up in their open concept kitchen.


Laksa Chowder ($8.90)

I could never have predicted this coming, like who would?!! An unique broth with a sweet edge is thoughtfully filled into a coconut shell for those who love to scrape. Also served with a lemongrass seafood skewer- prawn, scallop, mussel and squid were all so nicely seasoned and seared and seasoned.



Miso Salmon ($17.90)

Up next we have oriental meeting japanese along with a couple of condiment surprises. Flavourful sauteed mushrooms, pickled ginger, a completely tasteless potato mash and a dried sheet made of mini anchovies.

The limelight of miso was stolen, with a domineering outburst of ginger in both the marinade and sauce. But the most disliked part of this dish had to be the very fatty salmon flesh being laid in a puddle of oil.



Seafood Linguine ($18.90)

White wine sauce chosen over the marinara alternative. Not too bad, especially when the addition of scallops and a really large prawn comes into the picutre. That thin saltish slice of garlic toast was just kind of redundant.


Time for cheesecakes! *squeals.

Call me a weirdo cause i really fret to be given variety. Being spoilt for choice becomes a great torture having to make decisions, and i sure had a hard time before settling on.... the very expected.


Blueberry Cheesecake ($5.90)

Now this is the way i crave for my cake to be; real blueberries baked within rather than being topped with sickly sweet jam or pie filling that bears no true berry essence.

The cheese was executed to its finest texture, softening well in the mouth with an occasional hint of dryness, but still took to my liking. Furthermore the baked base of perfectly mashed biscuit crumbs was yet another commendable factor to get me hooked.



Durian Cheesecake ($6.90)

Something fresh on the list for durian lovers to try out. Certainly not me.

Bold novel attempts of food but requires much fine-tuning in order to score. Go for their cheesecakes, i'm still awaiting to try strawberry, mango, apple tumbler and open sesame. How ambitious of me.
