Swensen Restaurant – A disappointment…

We went to eat at a Swansen Restaurant branch in the west of Singapore recently and it was really a total disappointment. Not knowing what to order, we just thought of trying the “chef’s” best – ie – fish and chips and one baked curry rice. Why a disappointment ...

Firstly, though we arrived first, however, we were one of the last to be served. I had to wave the menu on the air to capture the waiter’s (or manager’s attention) and only then the waiter rushed to take our order. (Serves us right for sitting at the back for the nice comfy chair)

Secondly, I ordered the fish and chip – when it arrived, it’s sooo miserly served. I mean compared to the fish they served, I think I can eat a better portion served at KFC's Fish burger!

Third, the baked curry rice. Gosh, even I can do this dish! How? Well, get your canned YEO'S chicken curry and then dump all the curry in the rice and then baked it in the oven for about 10 minutes – and wala… you have your own Swensen’s baked chicken curry rice... Its great that the restaurant support local curry manufacturer, but when I taste it, i dont that that rice should cost more than $2!

Fourth, ohh.. waiter… don’t blame me for not signing you the tips – the service that day was bad and I was having a bad day - :P

ps. Taxi fare went up, the weather's hot, all the walking is really killing me.... argghh... No wonder Singaporeans are peeved...
