Restaurant Review:- Aloha Ma Maison Hawaiian Kitchen, Bugis +, Victoria Street, Singapore

 We went to Aloha Ma Maison, Hawaiian Kitchen at Bugis + in Singapore.

This is a Hawaiian Theme Restaurant - it being Hawaiian - we thought it would have served large portions!

We were greeted amicably and had two comfortable seats.
 I ordered the spaghetti carbonara. Unfortunately the  spaghetti was too oily and the portion was unexpectedly small!
 The Katsu Curry was also a small portion - but the taste was as to be expected.

It was cooked well.
We thought this was expensive for a meal with small portions.

We would not recommend Aloha Ma Maison Hawaiian Kitchen unless you were going for drinks or Desserts - which look better value!

Bar Review :- Two Chefs, 229 Koktanod, Kata Beach, Karon Muang, Phuket 83100, Thailand

We went to the lovely 2 Chefs restaurant in Kata Beach Phuket. It is lovely to take advantage of their happy hour and order their delicious Frozen Magaritas.

This lovely raspberry frozen Magarita was heavenly in the Phuket Evening Heat.

It was lovely to watch the traffic and beach afficionados go by and look at the tuk tuk drivers touting for trade. A great spot
 As you can see the Strawberry Frozen Magarita was also superb.

The Service here was great too - when we came here for the Second time - with greeted with 'Welcome Back' and escorted to our favourite Window Seat!
 The happy hour seems very long - and we got our Margaritas for 95 baht each! Wonderful!
 The Two Chefs is easy to find - as it is opposite the Boat House - behind Kata Beach in Phuket!
 Here is the Blue Magarita - looking like a wonderful work of art!

It was just enjoyable to savour the atmosphere in this peaceful and ambient restaurant.
A Chocolate Frozen Magarita was decadent and was my favourite flavour by far.

The 2 Chefs is a perfect place to While away the hours in Kata Beach, Phuket.

5/5 for Service and Ambience.

4/5 for their Margaritas!

Restaurant Review :- Richoux, 41A S Audley Street, Mayfair, London, W1K 2PS

 We were walking in Mayfair on a Sunday Morning and came across Richoux - which frankly is a gem of a restaurant. Magnificent in its eccentricity.

It feels plucked from the bygone eras and it was very difficult to find a table as many church goers and sunday strollers had come out to savour the atmosphere of this lively restaurant.

The interior decor was beautiful and building was statuesque.
 The Mushroom risotto was very nice and the helping was average in size - but enough for us. It was cooked perfectly.
 The club sandwich was run of the mill - but it meant my hunger quickly dissapeared.
 The bill was very acceptable for Mayfair - a very expensive area of London.
We highly recommend this restaurant - especially for tourists - even to take a coffee and cake will be pleasing.

Service was avaerage - as they were quite understaffed - 2/5

Food - 4/5

Atmosphere - 5/5
