Dinner at Food Addict

After reading abt the review of Food Addict Cafe from Sparklette's blog, i was so eager to give it a try since it is near to my hometown.
Hence on last sat, arranged to meet up with "Fannie" over dinner there.

The cafe sure look quite out of place between a fashion clothing shop & a florist shop. The searting capacity is also small,abt 7 tables (3 extend ouside the shop). That was why I had asked Fannie to meet up earlier, at 6pm. And true enuff, teh crowd start cmomin in as we have our meal.

Yup, the food was good. Really delicious. But not the drinks....
I wondered why "Sparklette" did not mention abt any drink in her blog. Perhaps that's the reason why...
But cant't blame the chef. As the drinks were prepared by the waiter and waitresses


I ordered an ice mocha (which i find it rather diluted) and the glass behind was Fannie's Green Apple Soda .



I ordered the recommended Hot Chicken (pic on the left). Yeah, for those who know i dun eat spicy stuff, dun be surprised. It was not hot (spicy) at all. "Hot" is becos it is popular.
Love the chuncky , "crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside" potato wedges. Even fannie who was full after having her pasta, could not resist taking a few pieces from my plate.
As for the chicken piece, it is marinated with some honey sauce. Normally for chicken chop or barbeque or fried chicken, I would at most, only ate a litle portion of the chicken skin, but for this dish, I ate more than half of it.

Fannied ordered a seafood pasta (shown on the right). I prefer creamy based pasta but from the few bite I had taken off from her plate, I have no complains abt it. Fannie also said it's quite nice.


Food served here are similar to NYDC style (heard the chef has worked at NYDC for 15 years) but the prices are dedinately much cheaper. and best of all, there is no service charge or GST . All NETT Price as stated on the menus.

We were quite full after our main course, but earlier on, I had ordered a Berry Berry Mudpie as dessert. Wanted to try the TCM (not Traditional Chinese Medicine but Total Chocolate Mocha) mudpie but was told that it is out of stock. So despite our stomach being filled , we still attacked the $4 Bery Bery mudpie.



Would definately want to visit it someday with friends cos I wanted to try out other dishes and their cheese cakes. Haha anyone interested?

On an additional note, the service is not bad, for the waitress and waiter had taken initiative to pull an extra chairs for our bags and asked us if we need extra plates when the main courses were served.

Now for the location of this gem in the heartland:
