Finally ate all their waffles 😂 Usual suspect is mala pasta, with their crispy chicken chop on it. Love it.

Cozy and quiet place in the heartland. 15mins walk from AMK MRT station. Recommend to take a bus to the destination and stroll back to AMK Hub after the meal.

Good dining experience, pleased with staff service and generous servings and refills of cheese fondue . Food-wise, hope to see more selections, especially greens and salads to complete a healthier meal.

Staffs were very friendly. They try their best to accommodate my request such as, drinks and waffles to only be served after the children have finish their food etc... even when the staff are very busy they are alert. Food is good and my family loves their aglio olio and Spaghetti vongole

Salted egg chicken pasta wasn’t as nice/tasty as before. Seemed a little bland and I had to add more salt.

Mala wing is nice but do not really have mala kicks. Suitable for those can’t take too spicy food. But a little disappointed with the cold sweet purple latte which not as strong as the hot one. Salted egg chicken linguine taste not bad but portion is small. Luckily the waffles help to compliment whole dinner.

Tried the special sweet potato waffle and it was really good. For mains wise, we tried the mala wings, truffle wagyu burger and salted egg burgers. Mala wings was unique and delicious, truffle wagyu burger didn’t really have truffle taste and salted egg burgers were not bad.

Perhaps understaffed, or inexperienced, so the waiter's attitude still needs to be hard, the food flavor is full, but a little salty. Overall so far so good.

My sister signed up as a member in Apr but was told that their management just change their membership program. Staff were unable to provide much advice on the transition. Clearer directions shld be given to staff on such information as it reduces confidence on its management. generally the food was served fast and they were generallly ok but a lil too salty for my liking. Staff is responsive.

Service always very good. Sometimes understaff but they try their best to provide service. This is a semi self help bistro. So just help yourself to get extra cutlery, plates and sauces at the counter. Their aglio olio, vongole, lava burger are my favourite mains with their waffles TOP with ice cream and root beer float for dessert is simply heavenly

Good food for a suburb cafe. The burgers are awesome, the pasta absolutely delicious. The waffles was so- so though... Expected more. They should have milkshakes in their menu since they are already selling ice cream. Overall, definitely a good place to have lunch if you're around the area. It's located just behind Christ the King Catholic church.

Love the truffle wagyu lava cheese burger, all the classics on the menu, mala pasta and its complementing fried chicken that we will return for, fries-lovers will like the truffle cheese fries, I know you can get that almost everywhere, but thumbs up! Waffle and ice cream complete the whole experience.
