MAD FOR GARLIC

Always love hunting for places that sell a certain specialized food. And what can you think of when it comes to Garlic? Well, Mad for Garlic really surprised me with the different kind of food they came up with Garlic in all their dishes.

MAD FOR GARLIC
Suntec City Mall - 3 Temasek Boulevard #01-39, Singapore 038983
Operating Hours: Sun to Thurs - 11.30am to 10pm, Fri to Sat - 11.30am to 11pm

Visited the Suntec City Mall outlet purely out of random as we were looking for a dinner place around the area after shopping.

White Sauteed Fresh Mussels $29.90

Fresh Mussels sauteed with Spicy Pepper and Garlic Cream sauce

Red Devil $19.90

Special Spicy Pasta with fresh Scrimp, Clam and various kind of Seafood

(No doubt is this spicy)

Garlic Steak $32.90

Mad for Garlic Special Rib-eye Steak topped with various kinds of Garlic
(Really juicy succulent beef. Order medium rare!!)

Garlic Sprinkle Gelato $7.90

Mad for Garlic's Special Garlic IceCream served in Chocolate covered glass with Garlic Cookie

(Personally, I feel it taste abit weird at first but after a few more mouth, it's actually quite tasty. A very adventurous taste)

Visited the Clarke Quay outlet with my ex-colleagues on a different day, as we were planning to chill around after dinner. The price is slightly higher as they are newly renovated. Didn't managed to take photos of the place because it was quite crowded. All I can say is the whole restaurant is quite dimly-litted, and it gives a very country feel.

Vongole Mare Pasta $23.50

Traditional pasta with Fresh Clams in White Wine sauce

Grilled Chicken & Mushroom Risotto $22.50

Risotto cooked with Spinach and Mushroom topped with Grilled Chicken Leg

Garlicholic Rice $17.90

Special Fried Rice with Garlic Pickles

Garlic Spinkle Gelato $8.90

(Had to order this again when i revisited because I feel it's their signature dessert)

Really enjoyed a good meal both times I was there. Just a piece of advice, try not to talk too closely to someone or burp after dining there.. =X

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Today is a super duper epic foodhunt day. Went to the proposed food place only to find out it's closed for renovation, so we went to the next door restaurant only to find out it's closed for lunch & will only re-open for business an hour later. We were stuck at the deserted road for a while until we met a nice indian worker who let us hitch a ride down to the main road. Thank you so much!! So eventually, we finally settled our lunch at Food For Thought at Singapore Botanic Gardens.

Love the huge spacious & quiet atmosphere, no doubt you'll see many students & adults doing their work here. For parents with kids, there is a mini playground directly outside the restaurant for the kids to play with. After a good heavy meal, there is always the park there for you to take a stroll with.
