Fisherios @ Bugis

This was my 2nd visit with my girlfriend to the outlet at Bugis. It was recommended by my friend for the taste and the affordable pricing. From my knowledge, they have another outlet at the basement of Takashimaya but I had never tried there. We had tried the normal Fish N Chips and we remembered the desert was good. So that was what made us decided to come back.

Fisherios – Fish N Chips

This time we ordered the beer-battered Fish N Chips which was recommended by the staff as it was their trademark dish. I took the set of Fish N Chips (with chicken nuggets and prawn) which came with soup and drink. My girlfriend ordered the ala carte beer-battered Fish N Chips. The soup was clam chowder soup and drinks I chose iced peach tea.

For a soupy person like me, the soup was rather disappointing. It was rather too flourish and I seriously did not see a single tiny piece of clam. Taste was so-so and it came with a piece of garlic bread which at least they took the effort to warm up. I don’t recommend ordering if it does not come with the set.

Beer-battered Fish N Chips Set – S$10.90/-

Beer-battered Fish N Chips – S$8.90/-

The beer-batter Fish N Chips was pretty nice. Though I cannot compare it to the previous time I visited as it was quite some time back (but I find it nice too). The quantity was more compared to the previous time I went to Mad Jack Fish N Chips at Bukit Timah. There was a faint taste of beer in the batter and it was not over-powering for both me and my girlfriend as we are not fans of beer. However, I think it would have tasted better if there was more flavour of saltiness or marinate in the fish.

Fried Brownies with Vanilla Ice Cream – S$2.90/-

The dessert was one of the main reasons we came back. There were only two desserts which are the fried brownies and the fried cheesecakes. We previously tried the fried brownies and were thinking of trying the fried cheesecakes for this time, but in the end we still go for the fried brownies as it was delicious. Different from the normal brownies with ice cream where they will warm up the brownies in a microwave oven, they fry the brownies and it gave it a crispy surface to the brownies. Chocolate desserts with vanilla ice cream are a fabulous combo. I just hope that they could have gave more brownies as they were rather stingy, giving the three small pieces.

The price is inclusive of GST and the dinner for both of us cost S$22.70/- in total. I think I would prefer Fisherios to Mad Jack for Fish N Chips but I could have given Mad Jack another chance. The dessert is a must-try and I think I would try the fried cheesecakes with comes with the vanilla ice cream as well.
