| - This restaurant serves Western-Asian fusion dishes with a focus on delivering cheesiness. I was anticipating its opening and finally had a chance to check it out today.
I arrived at the beginning of their dinner shift, so the restaurant was just re-opening for the day. I started out with the baked mussels. They were pretty good, with a nice amount of cheese, but I wish that they had a little bit more salt in order to really bring out the flavour of the mussel.
The karaage pizza arrived pretty quickly after the mussels. This was probably the best dish that I had. The crust was thin and perfectly crisp while the okonomiyaki sauce and bonito flakes perfect complimented the fried chicken. The only slight criticism I have is that it should be renamed as a "Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken Pizza" - especially since you can get incredible karaage next door.
Last but not least was the Grandma's spaghetti. Extra cheese was also added, mimicking the raclette trend from last year. However, for the price, the extra cheese portion was quite small, and didn't melt nicely into the spaghetti. The chefs should considering adding the extra cheese right after so that it doesn't awkwardly clump up the noodles. While the meatballs were pretty good, this dish wasn't anything special. Again, it tastes like something I could make at home and it was light on the salt.
They now accept debit and there doesn't seem to be any fondue offerings on the menu. Strange, since that dish might've been one of their more exciting offerings.
Service was nice and the staff were friendly. Otherwise, the meal was quite average overall.
