One week into my first visit to SayCheezeCake, two of my colleagues and I decided to have our inaugural networking lunch together at the same place. This time, I took up my daughter's suggestion not just to focus on the food but also the surroundings - especially since the decor is indeed strikingly red and shouting for attention! But not just the seats, look at the ceiling too! The yellow-red combination makes a fashion statement that is almost like an abstract piccasso painting! Yet, it is not garish and revolting. In fact, the entire restaurant is bright yet warm - like a flower attracting bees to its honey centre.
At the SayCheeseCake, one of its signature dishes is the chicken rice. The rice is cooked with a secret recipe using state-of-art machines! Yes, machines and not the usual steamer/wok used in chinese cooking. The result is a truly delicious taste of traditional chicken rice. You've got to try it to believe. For a person who is not into rice (i.e. myself), yet, I got to admit that it is certainly comparable to the best chicken rice stalls in town. To top this, the restaurant offers a chicken selection of white, soya and yin-yang combination (that is half white, half soya!). So now you have no excuse not to order that plate of chicken rice.
The dessert of the day was pulot-hitam cheesecake. At first, we were quite hesitant in ordering it but due to the persuasive waiter, we decided to take up on his recommendation - with no regrets. The cake was not heavy, in fact just right - and one can bite into pieces of red bean found atop the cake!
Yes, you've guessed it. This is certainly not my last visit to the place!
