Black/Grey Listed #1

Yee Hau and I have been talking about creating a list of black listed eat outs in Singapore. Ever since we started to cook, we find that a lot of food outlets in Singapore are just unacceptably pricey and not serving the good food.

We have a few in mind like:
  • Pastamania (seriously, I'm cooking better pasta that this franchise do)
  • Secret Recipe in IMM (we saw cockroach there and we also find that the cheesecakes are no longer smooth and soft as long ago)
  • Ikea fried chicken wings (We used to order this every time we visit Ikea but no more. It's no longer as delicious as it used to be)
  • Barcelos (Not really a black listed item, but it's pricey and not as good as Nando's Chicken)
  • Shokudo (A japanese restaurant that is not serving japanese food, pricey and not delicious)
  • Sakae Sushi (the grilled items in the menu are not really grilled, they simply put into the oven)
  • Nasi Lemak at Food Republic Vivo City (super pricey, simply a 3 dishes nasi lemak can cost you up to $6-8)
  • Red Lacquer Penang Peranakan (Char Kuay Teow that doesn't taste like one)
The latest outlet that came into the list is Wong Kok Cha Can Ting. Yes, they have celebrity that advertised for them, they have interesting menu like Ku Tin Lok. Seriously, they have Ku Tin Lok!

But the food are extremely pricey, a toast bread that cost me $5.40! That's outrageous. And the toast bread wasn't toast enough. A simple lunch that both of us wasn't too full, cost us more than $24! So, it's a No No!

Of course, we'll have a Star List too. So stay tuned~
