Ma Maison
Last Saturday night, Tuk and I went over to Bugis Junction to meet Princess and Adrian for dinner (as well as to get Tuk’s portable hard drive back from Adrian) after Zhang Zhen Yue’s autograph session. We were stumped on where to head for dinner as none of us felt like having it at the food court. It was then that Wanlin (Princess) suggested Ma Maison – a Japanese-French cuisine restaurant.
To be honest, most of us probably past by this restaurant a couple of times and never did pop in for a try. Reason? It looked expensive.
Contrary to our belief (after looking at the menu the restaurant had placed outside), it was actually quite affordable and not exactly like the fine dining type we were thinking of initially. A closer look inside gave us a pleasant surprise.
The restaurant’s cozy and that got us set for a series of “moodshots”. Fearing that most of you reading this would vomit, I had saved you the ordeal by posting only a handful of it. :P
The katsu curry rice I had ordered was ok (preferred the one from Tampopo instead). BUT the appetizer, dory, chicken and omelet rice were great. If I remembered correctly, the appetizers ranged somewhat between $5 to $15 and the main course (i.e.: dory/ chicken) ranged between $15 to $25.
And just a note. Don’t expect to be full by just eating the main course. The taste’s so good that it will leave you craving for more (and perhaps burn a deeper hole in your pocket too). Nearing to the end of our dinner, the waitress came over and gave us a metal key. What did we do with it? We were to hand the key over to the counter in order to make our payment! You see, the restaurant concept was like your home where you own a key to your table :) Sweet.
After dinner, we decided to head over to Liang Seah Street for desserts. It was there that Adrian started asking questions about human digestive system – whether our stomach did churn like a washing machine whilst digesting the food we ate. All of us were unanimous that it didn’t (we talked about the existence of small and big intestine) but Adrian didn’t buy into the idea. We were supposed to send him the anatomy of the human digestive system but to date, none of us did so. Hahha. Guess we’ll just have to do it another time…
