[Foodie thoughts] MoMo Cafe - Eastwood

Pandan Lychee Buko Scramble
MoMo Eastwood has become our favorite restaurant since we started dining there in December 2009. It's great for group lunches and dinners as their jumbo plates are really for sharing. Some even come with onion rings and corn-on-the-cob, which make good starters. You'll be crazy to order one dish for each person!

The menu is great as there's definitely something for everybody, including 'single serve' items if you're eating alone, or if sharing is not an option (e.g. you're meeting someone for the first time, you have entirely different taste preferences, someone has food allergies). Their food tastes as good as how they look (they make great subjects if you're into food photography) and the quality doesn't change -- always yummy and nicely cooked.

Sweet & Smoky
The staff are consistently friendly and the management team is willing to step up during busy times. During one of our visits, we were on the waiting list and they offered us an option to wait somewhere else (i.e. walk around the mall first) and they'll just send us an SMS message when our table is ready. We later on found out that they just used one of the manager's personal numbers for this purpose.

In spite of being in a mall, they have their own nicely decorated and well-maintained toilet, which makes it very convenient. Since they're located in the Eastwood Mall Veranda, tables are available outside the restaurant for smokers, without polluting the air of the non-smokers inside.

To date, we visit MoMo at least once a month (sometimes even twice a week!) and have probably tried most items on their menu. We've also brought our families and a lot of our friends on different occasions, and so far, all of them had a wonderful experience. A couple of friends are now MoMo regulars as well, and have even brought their own friends there. Considering the menu, food quality, service, location and over-all ambiance, MoMo Cafe definitely covers our 'value for money' criterion for choosing a restaurant.
