After my first visit to JustIN Flavours of Asia, I have subsequently returned to the restaurant twice.
The 2nd time was dinner with my friend from San Francisco on a Friday evening. My friend had the Prawn Laksa which looked really good. I would try this dish one of these days. I, on the other hand, had the Signature Angus Beef Noodle. My beef noodle was very good with a light herbal taste soup. For dessert, I had the durian crème brûlée.
Personally, I love crème brûlée in its original form. I am never into green tea crème brûlée, coffee crème brûlée or any other versions of my favorite dessert. The durian crème brûlée had the right consistency with a more intense flavor. For durian lovers, I am sure they would really enjoy this durian crème brûlée. For me, the dessert was good. I highly recommend to anyone who likes durian.
The staff from my first visit remembered what I had previously. I asked him when the restaurant going to offer the breakfast menu, particularly mee siam. He went to check and told me it would be this coming weekend. He was so sweet to bring an extra chair for my Louis and also gave us pandan macarons on the house. Merci Ben! :)
Note: The breakfast menu is available only on weekends.
My 3rd visit was this morning. Waking up at 7.45am for a bowl of mee siam with my sister for breakfast at JustIN? Sure, no problem!! :D Nothing going to dampen my mood this morning even when it was raining outside.
FOOD 5/5
My sis and I each had the Singapore Breakfast set ($20) which comprised of a fresh fruit juice, a bowl of mee siam and a cup of Vittoria coffee.
Signature House-made Mee Siam with Egg and Live Prawns - The portion was perfect for breakfast. One could order this Ala carte at $10 which to me is inexpensive. My sis felt the mee siam was a bit too tangy for her taste. I agreed but I do like it though.
Chicken Porridge - We also ordered the Chicken Porridge. It was really tasty!!
Gula Java Ice cream - told my sis about the Gula Java ice cream and at the end of the meal, I asked if we could order a scoop of Gula Java ice cream. We both shared the ice cream and I wonder if the restaurant made this ice cream in house. So gooooddd!! Mmmm..
AMBIENCE 5/5
I like the ambience. I finally saw a floor sign next to the door which indicates the main entrance. The entrance is really confusing. I saw some people coming in from the "back door" while I was there. However, if it rains, it would be terrible to use the main door leading to outside along the sidewalk with no shelter.
SERVICE 5/5
I have no complaints about the service. Staffs were friendly and attentive.
When I got back not long ago, I saw the receipt and realized they charged one breakfast set less. I called up the restaurant and let them know they charged me less and I would swing by soon to pay for the set. I guess initially the manager thought they charged me more, I like no no you guys charged me less and I have to pay for that 2nd breakfast set. Guess I have to make a trip next couple of days to pay, hehe!!
