Kh had a very stressful week so I treated him to The King Louis. We were at Vivocity and didn't know what to eat, so we thought we would give this a try.
This Knight's Platter cost me $58 (after ++). First impression, upon looking at it, WOW. Second impression, upon having my first bite, hmm not bad. Then it goes downhill from there.
The meat platter was the cheapest and it comes with (They can give it fancy names, but I'm just gonna put it in my words.) chicken cutlet, grilled pork steak, grilled beef steak, chicken skewers, salad, potato wedges, and fruit skewers dusted with cinnamon powder. The best stuff? Unfortunately, also the easiest to cook, chicken cutlet. The rest were simply mediocre. Now, why would I go to a restaurant and pay $58 for something I can easily cook myself?
Sure it's nice to have a castle theme restaurant with a view overlooking Sentosa, beautiful furniture (we suspect that they retained pretty much of Hog's Breathe Cafe's furniture), some Orlando Bloom knight movie on TV... I just hated the loud noisy music that takes away all the cosiness the restaurant has to offer.
It amazes me how we can easily splurge $60 on a restaurant meal and yet bargain so hard for a $2 t-shirt in Cambodia. "It's all about relativity," Kh explains.
Verdict:
Food- 5/10
Service- 6.5/10
Ambience- 6.5/10
Price- 7/10
Total: 6/10
