REAL AMERICAN FOOD Tucked away in a Coffeeshop






Botak Jones (Ang Mo Kio)

Food and Beverage - 5.3 Ambience / Setting - 5.8 Value - 5.8 Service - 7.5
Will you return to this place? Probably

I spend about S$4 per person Review Date: 20 Feb 2008



hidden in a bustling small town of Ang Mo Kio,in a clean and renovated coffeeshop,it is interesting to find some kind of REAL American food over the stalls of so called western food stalls located all over the land.

Concept = Interesting, sets ur mind rather entertained to check what what's in store at this "AMERICAN food stall" desked in neon signage and their icon of the bald-headed man.

their menu, printed in black ink over a yellow background, is packed counting 6-8pages full. (i would say casual dining restaurant style menu content, but budget printed)place ur order at the counter, their staff dressed in the attention-grabbing Botak Jones uniform will attend to your table with the mustard,chilli, ketchup sauces in 1 hand, and ur cutlery in the other. unexpected service from a coffeeshop eattery.


Ordered:



Cajun Chicken- comes with coleslaw and chilli powdered friesReg size costs $7.50, Large priced at $13.00*note of caution: do not underestimate the HUGE portions they serve.shared a Reg size portion with my sis, we even has some leftovers.* Guys, even if u are confident of ur appetite, with a singaporean sized appetite, u will not be able to chomp down any more than the Reg portion for urself.

I also recommend this place for
Type of meal
:
Lunch, Dinner
Occasion
:
Large Groups/Gathering, After Work
