Had dinner with family at Chef Chan's Restaurant (331 North Bridge Road, #01-02 Odeon Towers, Singapore 188720) today. As the restaurant just shifted to their new premise less than a month ago, they did not have the necessary ingredients for all the items on their menu yet. In fact, more than 65% of what we wanted were unavailable. We had to settle with the roast chicken, seafood soup, sweet and sour ribs with cinnamon, ginger and green onion fish head, kai lan in superior soup, and fried prawns. Surprisingly, all the dishes we ordered were quite nice, except for the kai lan which is overcooked. Waitresses are courteous and zealous (I find them a little over-zealous). The restaurant is very nicely furnished. The price is on the expensive side. For example, a fried pigeon costs S$40! You can get two pigeons for S$14 at Kam Boat! Most restaurants sell pigeons at S$10 each. The live seafoods are also expensive. The crabs cost S$48/kg. Most restaurants charge S$30-35/kg for crabs.

Had dinner with family at The Terrace (The Sentosa Resort & Spa, 2 Bukit Manis Road, Sentosa, Singapore) last Saturday. We had the seafood buffet which was pretty good. There's a grill station outdoors where you can have your grilled slipper lobster (crayfish), steak, chicken, and fish. The ambience is great, where you are amidst nice landscapes with a view of the sea if you dine outdoors. I have always preferred The Sentosa Resort to Rasa Sentosa, which I find too messy.

Had lunch with a friend at Original Sin (Blk 43, #01-62 Jalan Mera Saga, Chip Bee Gardens, Singapore) last week. Original Sin is a western concept vegetarian restaurant. We had the Mezze Plate (pita bread with koresh, baba ganoush, tzatziki, hummus, dolmades, and falafel), Lasagna, and Four Seasons Pizza. All of them were very good. Will definitely go back and try other items on their menu.
