eldest daughter SM organised 5pax aunty bes early birthday dinner @ craft pizza on 15.5.2021.^^

according to the proprietor, business is good and there are regular breakfast customers among the office workers in raffles place.

the pizza were great and the proprietor gave us a complimentary burrata.

there was no squid ink pasta today, the other pasta dish was so so.

not quite my kind of restaurant but ok for me to try too.

we picked patin for 重庆烤鱼 not the usual seabass…dish was tasty & “pang” flavourful quite oily..very good standard

for me overall still ming tang 重庆烤鱼 better equally tasty & “pang”..not so oily like here or other places..can drink & I do drink the soup 😀

pig ear was good standard.. 干锅vegetables pot on the lighter taste side, fresh & crunchy..

the 蟹粉tanhoon prawns was excellent! very tasty lots of haebee..second best dish for me after 重庆烤鱼

romaine lettuce 油麦菜was very good..

the lamb dish was competent i guess..it is flavourful but tough ..老old..maybe typical of this preparation so not a dish i would order..unlike say 羊蝎子which is tender and tasty..

this a restaurant I will come again just for a different taste of重庆烤鱼..

for value..the same lunch would cost like S$60 & I actually like the dish better than here…so generally will go there…

after lunch HC bought coffee at toastbox bugis junction.

had a great time with good buddies today.
