Sizzle & Bulk up

Being confined to the north area (in convenience to pick grandma from her eye clinic) for dinner, Dad suggested Sizzler at Toa Payoh central. This place works with a complimentary-saladbar-with-every-order system, or you could opt for just the salads ($16.99) like Sis if you are in no capacity to tackle any main courses.


Cream of Mushroom Soup

We would never miss this sizzler classic, especially sis. Although there were no sign of real mushrooms blended in the soup base itself, they scored well with a relatively rich creamy broth with huge funghi slices.


Garlic Toasts


Assorted Salads

Salad, by principle the highlight here. I never fail to pile my plate with heaps of blanched broccoli, mixed greens and especially their green papaya thai salad! Fine shreds of crunchy papaya tossed with a spicy dressing and chopped peanuts. Asianly good.

Other items offered included nachos, cajun potatoes, fruits, icecream, singaporean fried noodles, and linguine with tomato sauce. Try practising your creativity and you create some fun concoctions- just like how i topped cream soup over linguine to substitute the tomato puree.


Mushroom Cream Linguine


The Sirloin ($25.99)

For mains, Dad had steak while Mum and i picked the salmon. His medium-well done steak (headed with a yellow indicator) comes with a baked potato which went to sis, who topped it off with spring onions and corn from the bar.


Grilled Salmon ($24.49)

I'm afraid my previously crowning of the "best salmon steak" shook. This time it the crisp surface failed to impress and the flesh was dry. Thankfully, the yakitori sauce and tasty buttered rice remained.


Vanilla Softserve

I cannot leave without having fresh fruits (huge cuts of papaya) and their softserve. 2 servings of self-dispensed swirls in a cone, not too creamy in texture but made a passable calcium boost.
