Quiznos Sub- Subway's competitor!

We were heading to Orchard Central for Gelare when we saw Quiznos Sub. And there we are at Quinoz Sub looking through the long list of yummy sub sandwiches on the menu. Quiznos Sub is a sub sandwich franchise similar to Subway. 
(A: Being a subway fan myself, we decided to try out their competitor’s sandwich!)


We ordered Honey Bourbon Chicken sandwich ($5.40). Hot spicy mustard with slight sweetness of the chicken. For those who love spicy food, this sandwich is the one for you!

(J: Spicyness and sourness of the mustard sauce combined with the sweet honey was a bit too overpowering for my tastebuds... I prefer their wheat bread to subway's though)

J's & A’s rating: 3.75/5

And a must try sandwich is the Zesty Grill Steak on rosemary parmesan bread ($6.20)! The rosemary parmesan bread was so soft! And grilled beef steak was surprisingly juicy and tender! The beef steak reminded us of Yoshinoya beef bowl. haha. We prefer this sandwich than the Honey Bourbon Chicken Sandwich. We would definitely come back for this delicious sandwich!

(J: Loved the charred parts of the toasted bread lol)

Cedele II- Too big for one bite!

We fell in love with Cedele's Rosemary Chicken Sandwich ($7) ever since we had it months ago. Thick juicy rosemary chicken and cranberry sauce sandwiched between our favourite bread - Walnut Bap.

It never disappoints us whenever we visit the Cedele outlet at vivocity. They are really MUCH MORE GENEROUS than other outlets with portions of chicken soooooo big that we can't bite the entire sandwich in 1 mouthful!

A delightful sandwich indeed...
Chunks of chicken meat with the sweet cranberry sauce and fragrant rosemary lingering on our tastebuds...
The experience was unforgettable...
We savoured the sandwich slowly and delightfully, enjoying every bit of the chicken and walnuts in the walnut bap. It was crispy, chunky and pleasant.

Ochacha- Ohhh sooo goOd~ Ohhh sooo baD!

We’ve been to Ochacha a couple of times for their famous macha drink. Our favourite drink is Ochacha silk (green tea powder + soya milk) which is thick n creamy. Never ever order it in cold! The Ochacha silk will be diluted by the melting ice. We’re back again once more to try out other yummy goodies!
Ochacha Silk ($4.80)

We ordered the matcha cotton cupcake BUT it was so disappointing!! Although it was green in colour, there was no matcha fragrance at all! In fact, it's tasteless. The texture of the cake is more of a sponge cake than a cotton cake. We did not even manage to finish half of the small cotton cake!
(A: I thought pandan chiffon cake was way nicer than this. Much softer, spongier & full of pandan flavour. LOL)
Matcha Cotton Cupcake $2.90

Now came our unexpected surprise!! With the discontentment we had earlier. This Sakura Egg Sandwich definitely lit up our evening!
Sakura Egg Sandwich ($4.80)
We were SPEECHLESS when we took the first bite.
Silence for a moment....
It was DELICIOUS! We can’t describe the taste BUT YOU GOTTA TRY IT! This was the BEST EGG SANDWICH we’ve ever tried! It’s an extraordinary egg sandwich! That’s why it tasted sooo good! The bread was so soft! Definitely softer than cedele’s bread! We can’t find any words to describe this sandwich bcos its neither sweet, sour, salty, spicy nor blah blah blah but the taste of it is certainly one of its kind... U can be sure that you will not end up in disappointment!

New Green Pasture Cafe- We are healthy babies! We love our greens~~

We discovered this organic vegetarian a few months ago and we glad we tried it! Patronised many times already because we can't resist the delicious food! In short, we're hooked!
New Green Pasture Cafe was opened by Sophia Teh, lady boss.
She can be friendly and funny at times BUT beware when she's in bad mood. We could still remember how unfriendly she was on our 1st visit and how welcoming & cheerful she was on other days. Haha..

They specialise in organic food, vegetables & emphasize that they are 
MSG free, Low Fat & Low Salt! 
Top dish: Soba Salad, $7.50!
We love the soba salad! It has a sweet tangy sauce that blends very well with the soba noodles & the greens. There were plenty of vegetables in the soba salad such as dou miao, carrots, pomelo, baby tomatoes, beetroots, seaweeds etc. And the best part was the crunchy brown rice crackers which we enjoyed most!
(J: I love e pomelo & I'm always digging for them!)

No. 2: Brown Rice Set, $7.50
It was the unpolished brown rice served with different vegetables. We like the unpolished brown rice with the husk as it is crunchier compared to the normal brown rice. The vegetables? Hmmm, ordinary & can be slightly bland to some of u but hey, tts healthy! =P Pls pardon us for e unglamorous pics as they were taken using our handphones. Will update again when I retake using my camera.

We tried this new dish yesterday & it made it to our top 3 list! Golden Pillow, $8 was made by using 5 grains bread (almonds, sunflower seeds, walnut, sesame seeds & e last we arent v sure. Shall ask Sophia e next time we visit again), toasted and stuffed with the various veggies. The sauce used for Golden Pillow was different from the soba salad and seaweed roll. It was sweet and slightly spicy. The 5 grain bread was the best we had tasted so far! Even better than Cedele's bread! Perfectly toasted to give the crispiness on the outside and the bread is soo soft inside tt u can actually easily split e loaf into half despite it having e texture of a french loaf! So crunchy with e nuts inside the bread! The serving itself is HUGE. Got to share it with someone so that you could try other dishes as well!

Seaweed roll (Vegetarian sushi roll w/o rice) $4.50
This is another dish that ladies would like. It has the sweet tangy sauce found in the soba salad combined with the different vegetables. (A: It would make a good starter in my opinion. Very appetising!)

Walnut Sesame Paste, $2.50
People who would like to try a healthier black sesame paste gotta try this! The walnut sesame paste here was made from freshly grind black sesame and cooked using soya milk! It was not too sweet and heavy from the normal black sesame paste but you could still taste the individual sesame seeds! However, their quality can be inconsistent at times.

Pumpkin Chestnut Brown Rice, $9.50
(A: I love pumpkin! What I like about this dish was the nice fragrance of pumpkin mixed with the brown rice. Chunks of chestnuts could also be found in the rice.)
(J: I love e crunch from e chestnuts which added e nutty fragrance to e brown rice. However, this brown rice is alr polished & lacked e crunchy bite unlike e brown rice set.)

Bi Bim Bap (Hot Stone Rice), $9.50
Just like the normal korea Bi Bim Bap, the ones here was served with a spicy sauce as well but it tasted better on its own! Instead of meat and egg which is normally found in bi bim bap, mock meat (tofu) and chestnuts were used instead. Piping hot rice mixed with the greens. Couldn't stopped ourselves from eating!
(J: I love e charred rice at e bottom of e hot stone!)
