Where The Sidewalk Ends...

Would you ever guess that it's a private dining restaurant owned by - if I may use the term - celebrity couple Jessie Soo and Wee Khim? I for one didn't know this place existed until 2 weeks ago. It's a black & white house located at Hooper Road (along Bukit Timah Road) and the set up is very homely and cosy with warm lightings and the hosts were very professional, making it a point to address all of us by our first name. Impressive! Oh, before I forget, the dinner was organized for Professional Administrator's week and we also took the opportunity to celebrate a special gal's birthday.
Don't expect too much of the food as it tasted like home cooked meal with a touch of class. However, I must commend them for the lovely finger food - chopped tomatoes on mini baugette and stewed onions (below) and feta cheese on pastry crust (we enjoyed it so much it vanished almost immediately and hence no photo taken).





Grilled mushrooms and eggplant. It was light and refreshing and the mushrooms were oozing with sweetness.


Angel's hair pasta prepared with anchovies and tobiko. The pasta was done al dente but I thought it was a little dry for my liking although it was tasty.


My choice of maincourse - Lamb. The meat was tender but a bit too well cured (correct term used?) that it didn't taste it.
