Botak Jones, The Blackboard, Aston's Express etc etc. What's this with high-end looking Western stalls opening in heartland coffee shops? Not that I'm complaining, especially when they do open in the east area as well(;.
Nonetheless, 2 weeks of school, and I'm already tired of the long queues and crowded canteen(s). So, made a trip to the Botak Jones outlet at Clementi with KY~
KY's choice: Fish and chips at $6.50. Look at the large piece of fried fish. I took a bite and thought they had improved the fish:D. The batter is thin, and fish tastes juicier and much less fishy. The chips were marvellous as usual. Fat fries topped with cajun seasoning^^
Mine: Cajun chicken at $7.50. I could choose two sides, with a variety of choices like boiled carrots, fries, coleslaw, corn etc. Stuck to the usual fries and coleslaw. This is seriously worth every cent of the $7.50, simply because the chicken was damn good, the fries rocked and the coleslaw was freaking good as well. And they didn't inflate their prices! Probably absorbed the hike in prices of raw materials in some other way. But the servings were definitely not compromised~ The chicken was as large as I remembered it to be. The chicken was really thick. When you slice through it vertically, you can easily divide it again horizontally. The cheese topping was great, but they could be more generous with the tomato topping:).
Business was brisk for Botak Jones. Heh. A new Italian stall (claiming to be of restaurant standard too) had opened in the same coffee shop, and that hadn't affected Botak Jones's business one bit.
Botak Jones has a Bedok outlet too, sadly, I heard that the food quality isn't as good):.
