Here are some of the foods that i chose to try on that day. 

THE FOOD: 

French fries and wedges with Cheese dip. MMMMMmmm...

Appetizer: Soft-Shell Crab Salad
Batter -fried soft-shell crab and fresh greens topped with Thai Chili Dressing.
Review: This is really da bomb. The soft-shell crab is simply delicious, and the Thai Chili Dressing just makes the whole salad taste wonderful. I'm quite speechless about this. A must try in my opinion.
Rate: 9.5/10

Main Course: Hainanese Chicken Chop with Rice
Crispy chicken chop served with savory gravy and rice
Review: The chicken chop have that crispy outer portion that everyone likes and when you bite on it, the juicy tender, meat together with the gravy would leave you wanting more.
Rate: 7.5/10


Spaghetti Laksa with Tiger Prawn
Noodle in creamy Peranakan-style gravy with tiger prawn
Review: They gave the normal Spaghetti a unique twist by using laksa instead of tomato or cream sauce. It taste very special and satisfying.
Rate: 8.5/10

Mixed Seafood Baked Rice
Baked rice served with fresh seafood and chili crab sauce
Review: If you are a cheese lover, do try this as the cheese taste so good. And the chill crab sauce really makes the whole dish have that sweet, hot flavor.
Rate: 9/10

Dessert : Assorted Tea Platter
A selection of handmade tea assortments using Owl Kopi-O Gao as a base flavor. Coffee Putt, Opera Cake, Durian Pengat, Osthmanthus Red Bean Cake
Review : It is really pleasing to eat this platter. It isn't too sweet that you have to seek for water like most desserts do. It really seals your meal.
Rate: 8.5/10
Overall review:
It looks like a very decent, ordinary "angmoh" appearance cafe. But no, unlike other cafes, the food here is fabulous. And it has our "Singaporean taste". I don't know how to describe it, but every bite i took, there's that Singapore  style added to the food that i find it's very unique. The cosy ambience there is great for chilling out. Love it and i would definitely go back there again. The food available there are also very affordable!

OWL Cafe, 1 Vista Exchange Green #02-10/11, Star Vista, Singapore 138617 ( next to Buona Vista MRT Station )


I went for their Chinese New Year Opening Celebration. I was sort of late and i did not expect it to be such a big event! There was the press/photobooths/concierge.

PHOTOBOOTHH!!!!


There is the lion dance troupe too! It's embarrassing but the "lion" was like throwing orange skin peels and it somehow hit my head. Laugh out in pain! 

And yes, Jeanette Aw, the popular regional artiste is the Owl Ambassador turned up at the Owl Cafe. That explains her fan club!
