Green Waffle Diner @ Soho
This is my third time here, but I didn't mind at all. My previous two visits were good enough to warrant another visit, and this time I brought three hungry dining companions!
"steak and egg hash skillet" ($8x)
mushroom, onions, peppers, potatoes, chopped medium well steak and a poached egg
there was quite a lot of steak cubes in this. my friend proceeded to down the entire thing as well.
"country skillet with sausage" ($7x)
peppers, onions, potato cubes, tomatoes, chopped sausage and two poached eggs
definitely for potato-lovers. not a lot of sausage, so a fairly meatless dish. the poached eggs cooked perfectly and the onions + peppers were sweet and tender. seasoned very well as a whole, yumm..
"Pit beef sandwich" ($68)
salad, fries, roast beef and cheese sandwiched between a burger bun
this was my order. the salad was not fresh at all- tip of the leaves were greying and didn't have the usual brightness in fresh mesclun mix. beef sandwich wasn't huge (size of a double cheeseburger from HK Mc.D's) but actually really filling, the beef was surprisingly moist and perhaps even 'juicy'. the cheese sauce could have been better, perhaps using a deli swiss cheese? the bun could also be lighter - it was small and dense.
"chicken and waffles" ($70)
probably my favourite of the four savoury dishes we ordered today. chicken drumsticks were cooked so well! tender chicken meat on inside and crispy crunchy brown coating....lovely! waffle was an original flavour, light and crisp like how it should be.
"bananas foster waffle" ($52)
original waffle, dollop of cream, choice of chocolate ice cream, chocolate sauce, sliced banana, cinnamon, golden syrup
this was a champion combination - the three of us love cinnamon so this dessert was naturally a winner for us. waffle was crisp and light as always, chocolate ice cream was not bad (we could've chosen movenpick), and the bananas were tender and sweetened by the syrup and cinnamon. my only complaint would be the presentation of the bananas, and perhaps real whipped cream would've went better with the waffles (like the really light cream in cafe causette!). otherwise, a must-order if you love cinnamon!
also worth mentioning were the fact that the unfriendly waitresses last time were not present this day, and instead there were two friendly waiters. however, they failed to serve water again...until we asked and even gave us hot water because they ran out of cold!
