This restaurant has a nice environment. The design is minimalistic and the colours are pleasing to the eyes. I came in here planning to buy the food and "takeaway" to eat at home. I changed my mind when I stepped into the restaurant.  There is a "green wall" with flowers and the other walls have a geometrical pattern which is pleasing to the eyes. 

After ordering, the first thing served was the milkshake. It was thick and milky Just like how a milkshake should be. The cup has the words Waka Waka and It's time for Africa. Yup! So the restaurant has an African theme.

Grilled chicken with salad and rice. This was supposed to be eaten with the super spicy chilli. I did not take a liking to the chicken. It was a bit red at the bone too. The outer layer of meat was tender but nothing outstanding here.

Now the burger is a different story altogether. It was made perfectly. The meat was tender and juicy. Amazing. I really recommend trying the burger if you come to this restaurant. It may not have been life changing, like how in-and-out burger was for me but yummylicious all the same. 

I definitely preferred the burger to chicken set. The burger was filling and tasty. I could have done without the fries but the fries were fried right too and I enjoyed eating them. I was really full after the meal. 

Then came dessert. Dessert was good though it looks normal in the picture. I guess they could make it look tastier with a different method of serving. It's a real chocolate lava cake. I recommend this! Even though my tummy was filled with burger and fries, I could somehow find room for the dessert.
