Overrice - The HALAL GUYS version of SINGAPORE

ABBEY: The Overrice offers meals over rice. Whoah! You don’t say. Hahaha. I had their pulled beef signature bowl. It came with pita, shredded lettuce, and basmati rice. Each bowl can be drizzled by their secret white sauce and you can dab the fiery red sauce. And when I say dab, try it little by little. It is hot. Takes sometime to get used to it. Overall the Overrice beef bowl taste good. The ingredients and sauces really complement each other. They also have their version of Magnolia Banana pudding.

WILL: We got curious with New Yorks Halal Guys’ Iconic White Sauce and Impressive Hot Sauce when we stumbled on one of their interviews in YouTube. That curiosity grew to a question where we can get hold of that chili sauce in Singapore? 

Abbey found a place that declares to be Singapore’s version of Halal Guys by its patron. Overrice. Overrice is located at Arab Street and perfect place to dine after our pedicure session at The Nail Social. 

Their place have this “easy-going-young” vibe and the people behind the counter is pretty warm and accommodating. I ordered Falafel Signature Bowl ($12.40). The falafel is not dry and not crumbly. Their basmati rice complements well with their creamy white sauce and a dab of spiciest chili I ever had here in Singapore. (That was the first time that I didn’t ate all the chili served to me… haha) 

Anyways, we were so happy on what we have tasted and decided that Overrice will be our dinner on 24th December! We will surely come back for more on our next visit in Bugis area.

The Paddock Bistro - Singapore Polo Club | Lunch Deals

ABBEY: Our table in Paddock was reserved long back even before we knew if I’ll pass my last certification for the year. It’s as if my wife could tell the future. Haha. After two hours of examination I cleared it and when the adrenaline subsided we got ready and head to Singapore Polo Club. We were supposed to seat at a table beside the grass field but there was TV show shooting that time but table beside the pool is also fine.

I had their Polo Club Sandwich. It was huge and has beef pastrami, swiss cheese, ham, fried egg and fries on the side. The pastrami is juicy while the egg yolk oozed out to the bread after I cut it. Overall not too salty and the items went well with each other. I also put some mustard and ketchup to add more flavor to it. And then I washed it down with a rootbeer float.

The Paddock Bistro - Singapore Polo Club | Lunch Deals - Falafel 

WILL: Abbey passed a Microsoft Azure test. Woootwooooot! Another technical certification was conquered. And because Microsoft Azure is not his usual database (Abbey is an Oracle SME), we decided to dine to a not usual go to. The Paddock which is located at Singapore Polo Club. The Paddock is open for (non-members) on weekdays so we seized that opportunity for a Friday lunch. 

We booked to be seated at the Chukka Terrace but there’s a tv shooting at that moment so we were requested to be at the poolside. It defies what we want to experience (watching horse while dining) but we are there to enjoy the day. So no issues on that. 

We are just beside their kitchen and I heard that almost of the food ordered coming our from there is a falafel burger. So I also went for that. OMG! Now I know why the guests almost all went for their falafel. It’s patty is very moist. So moist that it crumbles. This is the best falafel I had so far! Parsley and cilantro is not overpowering but you can definitely taste the presence. Really do enjoyed my falafel partnered with my cranberry juice! Yumm!  

That dining is a good experience! Love it and wondering who can beat that falafel! Haha!
