Astons Specialties

Queuing for Toto? No its Astons! Its 6.30pm!
Look at the Queue... I Queued for an hour and a half before i managed to get in!
Still Q-ing, and the sun is still up...
6.45pm
Around 7pm, i got the menu! still Q-ing...
The sun has set, and im still Q-ing, close to 7.30pm.
Finally placed my order at 7.55pm!

Before Entry

Prime Ribeye with Pasta Salad and Whipped Potato

Comes along with 2 sides which you can choose. The Ribeye is done medium, so kinda bloody, but that makes the beef so rich in taste and flavour. Each slice is so juicy and tender. I bet the Wagyu will be even much much far better!

Grilled Fish with Herbs

Since i had such a filling dim sum lunch today, i still feel quite full even when its time for dinner, so decided to settle for white meat instead, so that i can have a mix of some red and white. The grilled fish portion is generous enough, and the best thing about it is that the interior is soft, while the top layer is slightly charred and crisp, certainly not an easy skill to cook to such standard. The herbs has indeed infused into the center of the white meat, unlike some other grilled fish who claims to have herbs, but the herbs can only be seen, but not tasted.

Located at:

119 East Coast Road (Opposite Katong Mall)

if i knew about the queue..i will definitely not join in the Q for sure! The Queue looks pretty short actually, din know it will end up waiting for so long! But i will definitely make a trip down again, this time round at some weird timings to avoid the queue! Those steaks in US should be better hur hur.. :)

from the looks on the ribeye, it doesn't seem like the steak rested long enough after cooking before plating.

how do you tell if its rested enough? is it cos my steak was done medium?
