Saturdate at Royals!

Today was a really wonderful day. The weather isn't so hot anymore now that we've hit the rainy season. I really love this time of the year. It reminds me that Christmas is coming and i'm so excited for it!

Me and Gab headed to Royals along Upper East Coast for dinner today. We really love this place a lot. It's a nice little cafe. Its value for money too, however unfortunately the serving sizes are much smaller than before. Nonetheless, it's still good food!

Since Christmas is coming, they had already decorated the interior of the place with Christmas decorations!

We eventually settled for our favourite Mee Siam and Pulled Beef Sandwich. For the Mee Siam, we ordered it as a set so it came with a dessert and drink.

They have all day breakfast as part of their menu too!

Royals is well known for its Mee Siam and Nasi Lemak! A lot of people come here to try it. Plus the prices are super value for money! But of course, it comes with GST and service charge. If you're craving for any of these foods or asian cuisine, this would definitely be a good bet!

It's interesting they have an all day breakfast too. I wouldn't suggest it. Personally, i've tried their scrambled eggs but i wasn't a fan of it. It was too buttery for my liking!

Pulled Beef Brisket and Swiss Cheese Sandwich

I love this. The pulled beef brisket is so well marinated and it is so lean! This is definitely something you should order if you're health conscious and craving for western food. They are very generous with their swiss cheese too so that's a plus. The salad is tossed in vinaigrette. It comes with potato chips but you can opt to change it for mash potato with no additional cost.

Their mash potato is so creamy and good! Sometimes i just order it alone. I just can't get enough of it!

Signature Nyonya Mee Siam

You might be worried that the Mee Siam is too spicy. It isn't! In fact even if your spice intolerant, you can give this a go! Gab is really spice intolerant but he managed to finish this. It only has a tinge of spice.

This Mee Siam is very rich in flavor, probably easily one of the best Mee Siams i have ever tried. It comes with a hard boiled egg, about 5 prawns and a generous serving of tau pok and beans sprout.
It's really perfect. You definitely have to try it!

Flat White

Since we ordered their Mee Siam as a set, it came with an additional drink and dessert. We chose their coffee and a brownie for dessert. Their coffee was surprisingly good too! It did not leave a sour aftertaste like most bad coffees do. In fact, i actually thought this coffee reminded me of Dimbulah's. Creamy and good.

Brownie with Vanilla Ice Cream

Well, i thought that wasn't anything special about their dessert. It was just mediocre. The brownie was moist and good, but the serving size was way too small. If you want a proper dessert, this doesn't quite fix it.

In all, the Mee Siam which came in a set costs $13.50. The Pulled Beef Sandwich costs $13.50 as well. I wouldn't recommend getting the Mee Siam as a set since the dessert wasn't value for money in my opinion. If you get it alone without the set, it costs $5.90. It's really not worth it to pay and additional $8 just for the coffee and dessert.

Royals also sells a selection of bread. I myself brought back two cinnamon buns for $3! You can order their cakes too. If you're thinking of having a party, you can check out their mini bites too! You can also book the place for a private event (i.e. 21st birthday party) in the afternoon.
