After Spidey ....

After Spider Man 3 at Great World City with the Fantastic Gohs. We slinged our way down to Robertson Walk. Deciding between a French restaurant whose name resembled a brassiere. We picked Cappadocia Cafe Restaurant. A Turkish restaurant. I think the best Turkish restaurant in Singapore. The food was exquisite and humus, you could only thank God for the chick pea. What can I say? Highly recommended. Expect service to be slow as there might just be up to 2 guys serving the whole restaurant and prices to be a little on the high side because of its location.

Some of you might be wondering why in the world does the food-critic take a picture of the napkin and not the food with his new camera phone. I will say, "Good question."

Our next stop was the Chocolate factory also along Roberston Walk. As sure as expatriate white men end up with strange looking Asian women, the chocolate was nothing much to crow about. It was chocolate but not at its cocoa best. I ordered the warm chocolate cake which was decent. Everyone else ordered chocolate tart and chocolate something else I can't remember.

What I don't understand is why restaurants have the cheek to declare that they do not serve plain tap water and they can only serve water in a bottle from France or Italy? Strange. I never understand these restaurants. They would rather make money from serving bottled water than banging on their food deliver them the cash. Maybe the restaurant just doesn't serve very good food? Maybe. But even in the expensive restaurants I have been to, and I mean up to $200 per person, they still serve iced plain tap water, so why not a chocolate restaurant/bar/dessert/eatery?

Strange.
