I'm always on a look out for "hidden" places ~ places where it seems like hidden treasures made know only to "exclusive" people.  Then again, by blogging / announcing such places will probably diminish the exclusiveness. Oh well, it still depends on the popularity of my blog and also, how far are you willing to travel just for a meal/drink/dessert. Coz, such places are usually less accessible and out of the way from the usual shopping/ movies area.

Came to know this place from a fren. It is indeed "secluded", parked under One North Residences (private condo). There's nothing much there, definitely not a place for people watching. But if you are looking for some place serene, ya probably you may like this place.

Our orders:

Steak Sandwich - $16

The beef was a little overdone, and so quite tough to chew. Dunno whether the bread was too big or the beef steak was too small, the beef seemed miserable sandwiched between the 2 slices. If I'm the one preparing this, I will serve on a smaller bread, so that relatively it seem that I'm generous in the meat portion and customer will not feel short-changed like me (>.<)

Chicken Thigh - $14

In terms of taste wise, the chicken fared better. It was super tender even though it was chicken breast. The roasted tomato was done perfectly, which jet out sweet warm tomato juice once you bite into it. The imperfection was probably the serving, which was again too small.

Chocolate Lave Cake - $12

Quiches, muffins are served as well for the small eaters or simply for those, who just want little snacks.

Something interesting noted when I was there ~> the cashier machine is a iPAD! Wow!
