Ma Maison, Central

Clark Quay Central, located just above Clark Quay MRT station is peppered with Japanese eateries. I noticed a couple of Waraku outlets in the mall, the interesting looking Tom Ton and the recently hype laden Marutama Ramen with their ridiculous queue. It's been some time since I last ate at Ma Maison and despite being packed, it looked like there was space for a couple of more seatings. I've had some good memories from this restaurant that serves Japanese styled western food enclosed in country furnishing with accompanying English tablecloth and tarnished crockery.

Ma Mason has a pretty good Plate Lunch set for $23.50++. There is soup, salad, bread (with butter and jam), a hamburg steak with omu rice and spaghetti (very well done), a drink and ice cream. I don't know if there's a better description for the works because it is pretty damn heavy for lunch.


The lunch is obviously carb heavy and if you should ever need to keep your eyelids up, you have been warned. What was great was that they did excellent spaghetti if you like them al dente. I've lost count of numerous instances of soggy noodles in restaruants. The omu rice was simply comfort food. Mouth watering "feel good" meal without fuss.  The hamburg was cooked well done. It was good anyway with the sauce and egg.
