another unsuccessful attempt to have frog porridge at G7 sinma this evening.
no parking lots, lots of cars.
running out ideas where to go for light makan, then remembered i have groupon vouchers. so called up & got an outside table for 2pax at sixty40 @ rochester mall on 16.9.2016. ^^.
groupon voucher for 2pax entitled us to 2 alcoholic drinks, but not cocktails.
i got a ballantine whisky & wife got a white wine. both are lousy, quite expected for the groupon price la.
place has nice ambience, both inside & outside.
there is life music wednesday to saturday.
it was more fun to sit outside.
we ordered 3 tapas for the applicable menu.
chicken drumlets were good, good flavour, wings still juicy, nice vinegar dip. we also asked for chilli.
they had the cheap local mussels which was tough not so succulent.
but soup was great. so preparation ok good standard just the ingredients not the good mussels.
pork ribs was excellent la! loved it! ^^
don’t know if i can make this pork ribs. i think louisiana. pork rib was tender & very tasty, smokey flavours.
not sure if it was just marinade or because of using a smoker or bbq. i can experiment the marinade & recipes but not do the smoking.
groupon deal was quite genuine = S$19.90 for 3 tapas, which would have cost up to S$40++.
what i bought included 2 drinks for S$10 more at S$29.90. & we had the whisky & white wine at S$12 & S$11 outside happy hours (we were at at 8.45pm).
the deal expired now but guess it will come back. won’t mind having it again.
they have dart boards inside. some people were playing.
& nice ambience at the tables outside.
bar food not exactly my most preferred. but i quite enjoyed this evening. good tasty food with wonderful ambience.
