recc by my bro esp the st louis ribs....
well its interesting concept of the restaurant and had a nice cheesecake with my friend.
when my st louis ribs arrived, it was really a big portion tat i have to tapao back. but the ribs dun taste fresh (got some funny taste) and got so much sweet chilli sauce on it...reminds me of ramly burger meat laden with sweet sauce.
agree that most of their foods are fried...but hope to try their soft shell crab one day. -
Oh no, dun try the ribs.. The St Louis ribs is way too sweet, i was never able to finish it even though i can usually eat quite alot.Originally posted by fumih_81:recc by my bro esp the st louis ribs....

I tried the Rodeo ribs last time round and it was even worse.. i guess it was because it does not have the sweet sauce to distract u from the texture of the ribs. It was very dry, and very tough.. You can actually see the individual meat fibres, hard and dry like wire. I think cartel badly needs more quality control in the kitchen.
The only thing i find worth eating is the pork chop, and the chicken cutlet (which is definitely not for the health conscious!). -
The Seafood Combo is really big....if u are not a big eater...best to have more than 5 pple thereOriginally posted by erianthe:I've been to cafe cartel only once. And I find their st louis ribs are ok. At least there was meat to it and quite tender too
Btw, anyone tried their Seafood combo? I've been wanting to try
.. but it seems to be for 5 persons or sth like that? -
i shared with my 2 other frens and we were damn full at the end of the meal we had to forgo dessert......Originally posted by icebaby0:The Seafood Combo is really big....if u are not a big eater...best to have more than 5 pple there -
ate there once. service sucks i agree. the only pull factor is the large portions and central location. the free bread is a good novelty
