remember that serangoon house featured in yahoo news? it wasnt as nice as i expected it to be. and there is this relatively new bistro, im really reluctant to share for fear of it becoming too pops. but anyhows..
they do thai / north indian / western food, with a bar. similar to bar bar black sheep; merry men etc. what works for me is that its literally just a stone's throw away. walk there, walk back. good for metabolism and digestion (: corn was shioks. the brocolli is ginormous! like some mutant veggie.
