TGIF: Little Diner + Island Creamery

3:05 PM Unknown 0 Comments




Finally and finally I caught up with this group of friends. This has been the longest that we last met due to our clashed schedule and commitment but thanks Joanne who mentioned about having dinner together and here we gathered at Little Diner for our dinner. 

I guess the longest friend that I have never met up is Aqmal. Right now, he is serving well for our nation, ( I don't even know where is his current location now!) but still our country is well protected by him and his peers. Can't wait for you to be back to reunite with us.


Caught up with the two ladies first while waiting for the other two to arrive. And lucky that I made my reservation or else we won't be able to get our seats as many tables were reserved by others.

I love how they chope the table with our name and this piece of note was well decorated by the staffs. I even took it back as a souvenir

 

Just simply share with you what their menu is. Dinner over here can be a little expensive. It acts like a bistro cafe where you can sit back and have a jar of alcohol drinks. And guess what? Tuesdays-Fridays when we can get our alcohol drinks for 20% discount from 1130-1930!

 




The food served was so awesome especially when I ordered their 
American Buttermilk Fried Chicken ($18.50)
Golden Fried Perfection Drizzled with Maple Syrup for an Extra Dimension of Deliciousness! Sinful, Utterly Indulgent & Tasty. Served with Handcut Fries &
Homemade Coleslaw

Although it took 20 minutes to prepare this dish but the waiting was worth! The marination of buttermilk doesn't taste so buttery and it has a little sweetness of it. The crispy chicken was not overly fried till the meat was tough. It was soft enough to cut off from my utensil.

Homecut fries was cut and fried from a real potato so effort can be seen from here. Not oily and greasy and so crunchy to bite off.

While Jue Yu had her Aglio Olio ($19.5)
Linguine, Garlic, Olive Oil, Hot Chilli Flakes & White Wine, with Choice of
Sautéed Tiger Prawns & Bacon Bits, I found that it is too expensive for a pasta dish.

And last but not least, Leena had Mac & Cheese Royale ($20.5)
The Rolls Royce of Baked Mac & Cheese with Truffle Oil, Wild Mushrooms

How can we end our TGIF without any desserts. So thankful, we managed to find an ice cream parlour around Botanic Garden area and as usual since it was Friday, the shop was filled with many people savoring sweet treats and chatting with their friends. We had to squeeze the 5 of us on a small little table, pretty cramped though!



I never thought that Island creamery sells affordable waffles and browines. A scoop of ice cream with waffles cost $5.80!! I shared brownies with Marcus and we topped up another scoop of ice cream which came out only $7.80. The cheapest waffles and brownies that I have eaten by far!

A lady approached us and asked us to help her with the survey and after completing the survey, we were given 2 extra scoop of ice cream!!! It was so awesome that we are entitled to $5 worth of ice cream! Happily collecting our ice cream from the lady and we got ourselves milo and milky flavours.




To end off the night with  a good note (:

Happy TGIF!!!

Till then
