Farewell Lunch For My Colleagues at 23 Jumpin @ 1 Irving Place

Was celebrating a farewell lunch on Friday at 23 Jumpin cafe for my dear colleague Kathleen.

23 Jumpin cafe is located at The Commerze Building at Irving Place, a 1 minute walk from Tai Seng Mrt station exit A.

High Society @ The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands

Another dinner date with my hubby. :)

Happens to see an online deal from Groupon, an European Fusion Cuisine at High Society Cafe and Restaurant so we decided to give this restaurant a try. Friday night around 7.30 we were shown to our table in the elegant surroundings of this establishment.

High Society, a cafe / modern restaurant that is part of That CD Shop which is conveniently located at The Shoppes, Marina Bay Sands.

Classy decor with dim lights,  nice ambience, crystal chandeliers, luxe and cosy furnishings.

Assorted display of cakes

The Menu

We had Onion Soup as starter, follow by the Classic Fish & Chips and Cajun Spring Chicken as main.

Starter:

Soup of the day: Onion Soup

The Mains:

Classic Fish & Chips

Norwegian Haddock in Tempura Batter with French Fries & Tartar Sauce & Hand Made Coleslaw

Cajun Spring Chicken

Pan-Seared Half-Baby Chicken served with Bordeaux Sauce, Asparagus, Carrot Puree, rosemary tomatoes & baby potatoes

The Desserts:

Greentea Cupcake & 3 different flavor of Macaroons (Chocolate, Coconut & Coffee)

Overall, the food is average and the service is alright too. This would be a better place just to have tea and chit-chat, not for serious food.

Finally got the chance to try out the food at Miam Miam! Was headed to Bugis Junction for shopping together with my stepson last Saturday (28 Dec'13).
