Heng Heng Curry Restaurant!

Last Friday evening, while waiting for the boy to end work.
I headed down to Causeway Point shopping mall for a short walk!
Went over to Kose counted to collect some stuffs and here’s what I’ve gotten!

A night cream! Tried and it has been really good to me this few days.
My face has become slightly better.
Okay not sure if it was because I tried to sleep early? Or was it because of the cream.

But anyway, the purpose of this cream is actually to give your face more moisture during the night. Shall try out for a few more days! (:

At first we were thinking of having Pasta Mania for dinner, however because of the long queue. We decided that we’ll skip that.

Heng Heng always caught my attention, but somehow, we always didn’t manage to head in for dinner/lunch or any other meals! Because there were no queue. So bf and I decided that we shld give it a try!
 Bf ordered Curry Vegetables Soup + Rice, while I ordered their Braised Meat with Egg and Rice.

Okay, first to serve was my Braised Meat with egg and rice. A little too sweet for my liking despite the fact that I’ve got tolerance for sweet tooth! But thn again, I do not really like my main dishes to be sweet.




Got a little sick after eating a few mouths. Because of the sweet sauce which wasn’t much of my taste, I’ve decided to try boyfriend’s Curry Vegetables.

There are long beans, cabbage, brinjais, potatoes and some other veges in it. I would say, this would be nicer as compare to my Braised Meat.

The curry was a little salty, but overall was alright if you pair it with rice. Curry was thick and it smells really good. Worth giving it a try! (:

Because of the picture in their menus, I’ve decided to order their Grass Jelly drink to try. It was really nice! (: The grass jelly melts in the mouth and it’s a huge cup. I would say, it shld be enough for 2! (:

 

What I like about Heng Heng Restaurant:
Their dishes was served up quite fast. And they actually had a really nice dining area. Suitable to mini gatherings as well as family dinners (:

What I dislike about Heng Heng Restaurant:
Their service was a little slow. Not very attentive in our request.

Disappointed with Kaplan

I am very disappointed with Kaplan Higher Education Institute!
Because I was thinking about taking another degree majoring in HR and Marketing.
I've tried to source for schools that offer that kind of courses. And finally I've found them in Kaplan!

However, firstly their service wasnt that good. It has been like more than a week since i've emailed them regarding the courses. However, up till today, I receive no reply.
Well, there was one, but with the wrong reply. So I check with the person who replied me at first asking for the correct course fees. And yet again till today, I didnt receive anything.

So I've decided to head down to Kaplan itself to check out on the course fees and thinking i might be able to check out on the course starting dates.
But i was too late. Apparently their working hours is the same as those office jobs.
(Which I think this cant be happening, because not everyone who are studying or wants to study are students! There could working adults like myself). Okay, i shall not probe on that.

End up, the receptionist gave me 2 name cards to get me to email to the consultants. And i've tried. But still there wasnt any reply. Okay, I shall wait for a few more days.

So angry!This is definitely not the right way for a customer service to work?

Lunch at Poulet! (:

After walking ard for hours, boyfriend and I finally decided on Poulet at Bugis + for lunch!
At first I was a little unwilling because I've never a fan of French food. Moreover, it was set up by the Thai Express Group.


On Poulet's menu, they have food ranging from appetisers to desserts.

First up was this Mushroom soup, if you are a fan of mushroom, this is definitely a must try.
I was rather skeptical abt this at first, because after trying out the Velvety Mushroom Soup at the Soup Spoon, I got kind of turn of by the overly filled mushroom taste which makes my stomach feels really bad.

However, this mushroom soup was really good. They do have a little of that creamy taste, but it was so different from the ones we had elsewhere.

After the soup, here comes our main.
At first we were unsure of what are the nice mains, we when we looked ard, we saw that most of the people who went Poulet for lunch are ordering this.
So the boy ordered their famous Poulet Roti (SGD$15.80 for half, $28.80 for whole).

The chicken was being roasted till it was golden brown, and after which they added creamy mushroom Chardonnay Sauce which makes the dish a perfect one! (:
The sauce has this creamy and sweet and was the best ones i had so far.
And the chicken was so tender that it somehow melts in the mouth!

I ordered their sandwich, which I wasnt my liking.
They had added the satay sauce tgt with some other sauces which makes my sandwich taste pretty bad. Or mayb it could be just my tastebuds.


I've also tried out their Banana Bread Pudding (if i remember correctly), a little too sweet for me.
And also, after all the main dishes, I'm already kind of full! hahah! (:
But their banana bread pudding is really nice. It has strong banana taste and doesnt have raisins!
Okay because I dont like them. But apart from it, that individual portion will be enough to fill two, if anyone doesnt have sweet tooth (:

Will definitely head back again for more! And I shall update more! (:
Also, do take note, they always has long queues! So either go earlier, or join in the queue! (: ahahha!

What I like about Poulet:
They do have good service despite the pack lunch hours.
Clear the plates fast enough and serving the desserts straight after.
I would say they are rather attentive.

What I dislike about Poulet:
Their sitting arrangement is a little too pack, we could literally see and listen to what the people from our next table is doing and eating.
