The food is great but the service sucks! There's plenty of staff but they just can't seem to get it working.

Busy deli with seating in the middle of the place-could do with the seating area away from the shoppers. Expensive but there again Singapore is expensive

I last wrote about this place in 2009 - it was a very bad review about its poor service.

Good food - great for lunch - couples, families, ladies - and good for coffee and dessert too! Free parking! Great gourmet products. Wait staff needs improving and could be more attentive to customers.
