Grub Singapore Review

#grubsg screen of live feed from instagram

Grub just opened in May this year at my beloved Bishan Park. I heard lots of friends saying that the queue for a table was insane long, so I didn't pay them a visit till now. The favorite thing I like is that they have this screen at the alfresco area that flashes up pictures. Initially I thought they just showed the food that is on the menu, but on further inspection, I saw that they are instagrams posted by patrons of grub. So i posted a picture of our group with a hashtag #grubsg. Halfway through the meal I spotted the picture that I had posted on the screen !! Excitedly I ran to take a picture of it and thus the next picture is a picture of me taking a picture of it.

taking a picture of our picture on the screen





I feel this was the most exciting part of the night. Makes it a memorable experience and like we were playing a part in everyone else's dining experience. I highly encourage you to hashtag #grubsg when you are there and look out for your picture as it comes up on the screen.

alfresco dining area

Grub doesn't take reservations so you have to go there and put your name down. They also don't allow you to queue outside the restaurant, thus we took the time to enjoy a nice stroll around the park. Was surprised that we only had to wait for about half an hour before receiving a phone call saying that our table was ready. I enjoyed that we sat at the alfresco area as it was a cooling night with a beautiful breeze. They have an indoor seating area which would be suitable for hot afternoons.

Iced honey lime juice
The homemade iced honey lime juice was refreshing. I especially like the smell which reminded me of my favorite dessert Ice Jelly.

King salmon on top of risotto

Was unimpressed with their risotto as the look of it just doesn't seem appetizing to me and it was quite salty too. On the other hand, the burgers are a much better choice.

Fish burger
There is a very generous piece of fish on the fish burger. Probably the best looking of all the things we ordered because it looked like a sumptuous portion.

I decided on their signature Grub Burger and it was pretty good. I would definitely order the burger again. Then came dessert time ! We just can't resist our sweet tooth. Everything sounded really yummy so we ordered 3 desserts to share.

Chocolate pot with spicy crumble

This is a chocolate pot with a spicy crumble. I really loved the chocolate texture and the spiciness of the crumble added a surprising element to the dessert. When eating it together, there is a lingering warmth left in the mouth.

Waffle with banana, salty caramel, chocolate saue

I am predisposed to bananas so I really loved this banana waffle served with salted caramel and chocolate sauce. The waffle texture is the way I like it, abit crispy on the outside and soft and sweet on the inside. See how big are the bananas. Could enjoy a big chunk with every bite.

Churros

Someone was eager to try the churros but I didn't find it especially delicious as the texture and flavor weren't really to my liking. Haven't eaten good churros in Singapore before.
