Fullhouse Signature Singapore @ Clarke Quay

I'm sure many (especially KPOP fans) have heard of Full House - Korean drama featuring Rain and Song Hye Gyo, as well as the lovely theme cafe “Fullhouse Lifestyle Store and Cafe” previously located at Hotel Rendezvous.
Unfortunately, the latter has closed down.
But...FRET NOT! Fullhouse is now re-opened in Singapore at Clarke Quay with new management and the cafe focuses on its signature dishes more than before, hence, Fullhouse Signature <3

The bloggers were invited to their food tasting just last week and to bring to you a wonderful 1-for-1 deal at the end of this post ^^


Fullhouse Signature brings new dimensions to wedding and dining experience, with an edge in creating a dream home for all. It caters to family gatherings, high tea sessions, relaxing meet-ups, and the showcase of the arts. It now encompasses a wider and more creative range of exciting happenings than its previous cafe and is eager to hose all sorts of family events, business meetings, alumni activities, product launching, or just a gathering of close friends. Consider this your home for any activity or program you wish to organize!

The main mascots of Fullhouse Signature are the Fullhouse family, namely dad Thomas, mum Tracy, children Tiffani and Tony, as well as pet dog Toy as your friendly and pleasant hosts.
Try to spot them in the photos later in the post! ;)

Without much further ado, let's take a look at the lovely theme restaurant. The management team has spent months sourcing for suitable decor and even having them custom-made overseas for the restaurant to ensure that every corner is perfect!

Garden theme








Victorian theme
(as well as a children play area adjoined)











Wedding corner
*pardon the lousy photo quality


This area acts as a bridal boutique where you can try on the gowns and do your makeup by the pretty dressing corner, yes, for real!
The gowns are even available for purchase if you like :)


And here's your groom, ROFL.


Can't help but take a selfie in the lovely bridal section <3


(no, this isn't their gown)

Garden Bar?


Now, to the food.
Oh before that, they have young, cute waitress to serve your food ^^





Cream of Forest Mushroom $9
Simmered with wild mushrooms, herbs, and topping with cream & tuffle oil

I love how the soup is thick, yet not too creamy. It's made with freshly chopped chunks of mushrooms - authentically good!
The bread that came along were extremely crispy.



Crunchy Cheese Sticks $11
Deep fried cheese sticks coated with crispy breadcrumbs


Look how unique the erm, spoon, it was served in.


This was one of my favourite dish out of so many even though it's simply mozzarella cheese coated with bread crumbs, I find the taste so divine~~ T.T



Italian Meatball $17
Homemade meatballs served with tomato sauce and melted cheese on top


The meatball itself was a little bland. However, the melted cheese and tomato sauce makes up for it!
Just have to make sure you get the sauce together with the meatball before you bite in :)



Golden Crabmeat Ball $11
Homemade crab meat ball served with cream cheese


These crab meatballs were a little too dry and flaky for my liking.
Might be better if there were fresh, juicy crab meat in it?
However, for the price of $11,this will do as a quick fix if you have a craving for crab meat.



Scallop Aglio Spagehetti $22
Smooth virgin olive oil with a touch of chili padi and garlic served with sauteed whole scallops



The scallops were really huge! And done pretty well so that they were still juicy and soft.


Fullhouse Ravioli $25
Special creamy ravioli stuffed with minced prawns, squids and spinach



The presentation of the ravioli once again surprised us :) Having an aesthetically-pleasing dish already makes customers 50% satisfied.
However, having tried authentic yummy ravioli in Italy personally, this dish was a little far from expectations.
The pasta itself could been a little thinner, either that or more of the fillings (and more cream please, yes!).
Perhaps each petal of ravioli could be made smaller, more bite-sized, for ladies to have an easier time to enjoy the food :)


Braised Lamb Shank $19
Lamb shank simmered in red wine jus


Not a fan of lamb personally, thus I can't comment.
But per other bloggers who likes lamb shanks, this was definitely a *thumbs up*! Aww!


I had the mash potato which looks so pretty at the side though.



Chicken Chop with Raisin Black Pepper Sauce $25
Served with mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables


I have no idea how they do it (otherwise, I would have been a chef), but the skin was so crispy and yet meat remains tender and juicy. LOVE this dish!
The raisin pepper sauce is pretty innovative as well, making it slightly more fragrant with the dried grapes.


Banana Paradise $9
Golden crispy fritters served with vanilla ice-cream


Well well, these are some GOOD goreng-pisang (fried bananas) with vanilla ice-cream. Perfect duo!


Molten Chocolate Cake $9
Chocolate cake filled with lava like smooth cocoa


We were slightly disappointed when there weren't any chocolate lava oozing out when we cut the cake :/ That's supposed to happen, right!? To have molten chocolate within the cake!

But right upon trying the cake, all my disappointments were gone!
The (not-so-molten) chocolate in the cake were nonetheless soft and slightly chewy, making the dessert so satisfying.
The strawberries were surprisingly sweet (not the usual sour ones we have) too!


Snow White on Fire

One of their signature cocktail, with a presentation style similar to flaming lamborgini, Snow White on Fire.


The cocktail has citrus, honey and (plum) many other ingredient in it which makes it not only exciting to watch, but super delicious too! To me, it tasted like refreshing honey plum and I had to control myself not to have too much of it! :X Otherwise I'd be drunk pretty soon!



Now, here's the sweet deal for everyone! Fullhouse Signature is offering 1-FOR-1 main course, from today til 10 December 2013! :)

A lil' cheer me up!

Feeling a lil' lousy these few days.
But saw this photo that cheered me up immediately!

The shade of blue/green is so lovely! 
Never a fan of shirts but I especially love the checkered cuff detailing of this!
And the subtle polka dots.

On a side note, should I straighten my hair?
It makes me look younger I feel! (Or was it becos I was really younger back then? -.-)
The photo below was taken just less than half a year back.
