Hard Rock Cafe Singapore

08 January 2008

I have not visited this place for quite a long time, but in my army days I used to come here for desserts, especially the oh so heavenly Hot Fudge Brownie Sundae. This is a big must try for everyone, don't be surprised by the size ;) Hard Rock uses Haagan-Dazs ice-cream, lovely. Nice cosy environment, little wonder why so many Americans dine here with their families, and you've got mtv playing on the big screen. If you come later in the evening, around 11pm, you would usually have a nice live band playing for you.

Herb Grilled Chicken Breast: 7.5/10


I chose this because we wanted to share and weren't exactly starving, which explains why we didn't consider their signature grills or burgers. We'll leave that for next time. Or very soon.

Really well grilled chicken, and the herb sauce was tops. Wished I could have more of both. It would have been good if there was more potato-ey sides to accompany this too - the fried potatoes can't even be seen in the picture, just hidden underneath. Should be better with mashed potatoes, with extra servings of the sauce!

Fish and Chips: 7/10


I've tried a lot of fish and chips here in Singapore, so I have to admit my expectations for any new dish of fish and chips would be high. The good thing about this dish was that I liked the crispy batter, and you can tell the fish is fresh. It goes very well with the tartar. Only problem was that it could be a tad too oily, which then explains why we kept dipping it in tartar. Still not too bad after all.

Service
Outstanding. From the time you step in, you just have this feeling that you're very welcomed, and me being so fussy about sitting place, they had us changed twice and still kept their smiles up. I also saw a couple of birthdays being celebrated, the birthday kid, or adult, would normally stand on top of the chair, the birthday tune comes up and everybody in the restaurant would sing for the celebrity. Sweet.

Price
For what we had it was around $40, though if we had ventured to the smokehouse choices the bill would definitely have been higher. We're urged to try soon. The price seems fine to me.
