The Famous Kitchen

Food was fantastic. In essence, simple traditional dishes made very well. Waitress who waited on our table was enthusiastic to recommend dishes suitable for both young and old and she was spot on. The family enjoyed the dinner 😊 $320++ for 8 pax which was worth it for the quality. Downside is that we were seated next a table of avid drinkers who could share their conversation from across the table occasionally.

Service was really slow despite there being only 2 other tables on a weekend. Would highly recommend the roasted chicken which was roasted to a crisp and the signature recommended fried kway teow that was perfectly seasoned and tasty. Other than that, the other dishes were mediocre or below average in taste. Went for their SG60 seafood platter deal which had a generous variety of seafood too, worth trying!

This place deserves an all five-star review. It is Michelin recommended but the price is affordable. We went over for an early Father's Day celebration and ordered the June Specials. These 5 dishes are at 60% off their regular-price. . Braised Abalone, Sea Cucumber with Dried Scallop & Crab Meat Soup S: $23.20 M: $35.20 L: $47.20 . Wok Fried Pork Ribs with Plum Sauce S: $8 M: $12 L: $16 . Traditional Fish Head Curry in Claypot Half: $16 Full: $31.20 . Braised Water Chestnut Tofu with Corylus Mushroom S: $9.60 M: $14.40 L: $19.20 . Stir-fried De-shelled Prawns with Celtuce S: $15.20 M: $22.80 L: $30.40 . The fish head curry was the crowd favourite. The fish head was fresh and they served it over a stove to keep the curry piping hot. . My non spice lover boy ate many pieces of the pork ribs. Those were sweet and tender, definitely a kid's delight. . The chestnut tofu was very special. It was tofu smashed with chestnut bits then fried and drizzled with a sauce full of umami and served with mushroom. . I tried celtuce for the first time. It was crunchy and so were the prawns. . The braised soup tasted ok, like how a usual thickened soup would be. It was very hearty with some vinegar and a dash of pepper. Another plus point for dining here is the free corkage. It is free for 2 bottles of hard liquor and 3 bottles of wine. This place accepts CDC Vouchers so it was good for me to treat my dad to a good meal. My dad is quite a fussy eater but he enjoyed himself here. I will return to try more dishes. Prices listed above are discounted as part of the monthly specials.

Have an enjoyable time having dinner after Tree Top Walk. We enjoyed 3tdpw dishes albeit the Claypot Rice and Volcano chicken were on the high side. Especially loved the curry fish head and Ireland Fat Duck. The fish was smooth and curry texture just nice. Not too thick not too blend. Fat duck skin was crispy and the meat juicy and tasty. If you know what to order this place will definitely be a delight for you. Plenty of whisky selection too.

Happy Dining Experiences with Big Group gathering. GREAT for Birthday Celebration. Good Service and Well Served. Thanks

We thought of heading to this nostalgic restaurant for old times' sake and 'The Famous Restaurant', in our opinion, was famous in our minds for the wrong reasons. The food was really superficial. In fact, some kopitiam had better tasting dishes, and the price came out to be nearly $300 for 7 of us. Though the service by the waitress was fantastic, the chef was really stubborn to insist that the fish we ate had no fishy smell. All 7 of us tasted that awful taste, yet he insisted that it was normal. It's definitely not worth a second visit. Might have been famous in the past, but definitely, the standard had dropped.

Came here for lunch on a quiet, lazy Saturday afternoon. Ordered the dishes recommended by previous patrons on Google reviews. All the dishes were excellent, only the KL hokkien mee was slightly overcooked. Noodles too soft for our liking. But the wok hei and taste was spot on. Would come again to try other dishes.

This place has one of the largest collection of wine, beer and liquor offering of any restaurant in Singapore. However, we came here today especially for the curry fish head. The fish was fresh but has quite a lot of scales on it. The curry is very thick and good coconut taste (lemak). It was not too spicy. The other dishes that was outstanding was the fried pork belly with fried garlic. I enjoyed both the meat as well as the garlic. The fried black hokkien noodle (Malaysian style) is also excellent. It was tasty with good amount of fresh seafood ingredients. The other dishes were very average in taste and presentation. Service was efficient and servers were helpful and polite.

One of the best seafood restaurant located in the middle of nowhere. They are one of the few restaurant in the world that still serve shark fin soup( don't know if it is real Shark fin or not though). Their flower crab is kind of mini sizes so don't expect that to fill you up. Their salted egg squid is amazing. Probably the best salted egg dish I've ever eaten. Their baked flower crab also are very tasty even if small. Shark fin soup tasted good as well. Their price point is very reasonable too. Only complaint I have is they were out of bamboo clams. So if there are certain seafood you want, I suggest you call them and reserve it. It is worth the trip out into the middle of nowhere for this restaurant.

The name of this place sounds pretty boastful but we decided to give it a try since we were in the area. The décor of the place is fairly standard and the service was quite good. But let's talk about the food. Honestly, I thought that the food here was fairly mediocre. We had the steamed fish but I thought that the fish was not that fresh. A few other dishes weren't very satisfactory as well, but fortunately the serving size was adequate. Give this place a miss.
