The
name of the restaurant says it all, every main meal serve in this
restaurant come with fries. A refreshing concept from the founder of
Awfully Chocolate, whom recently just open their third branch in
Bugis Junction.
Thanks
to our friend, Grace, the mother of a tiger baby who suggested this
place for our makan session and catch up. Located in the 4th
floor of Bugis Junction, the same floor as the cinema, this
restaurant concept is casual dining. Basically, you won't miss it
when you coming from the escalator.
Not
sure on how the crowd was going to be that night, we arrived early
and hungry. So we decided to order Skinny Wings ($6.90) first before
our makan kakis arrived. The skinny wings is crispy on the outside,
well seasoned, and juicy on the inside. Nice and yummy, I'll say.
Lucky thing they arrived when we only started on the nibble, if not I
sure will gobbled all up.

Now
for the actual meal, I ordered the Char-Grilled Char Siew ($15.90)
and the Little Devil ordered the Steak n Tulang ($25.90) on the
special menu. By adding $3.50 each, we also get the famous The One
Egg Soup and Lemon Tea drink.
For
those that never been here before, the The One Egg Soup is a must
try. Look yellowish in colour, the soup taste is unique, creamy, full
of flavour with a little tangy twist. To top it up, it has the edges
of the fried egg to add a different dimension in the texture.

Now
for the fries that come with every meal, you have a choice of
shoestring or straight cut fries with the following flavours:
Original, curry, salt & vinegar, sour cream & onion; and
garlic & herbs. I tried the straight cut with curry, while the
little devil get the shoestring fries with truffle oil as part of the
special meal. The fries here sure did not disappoint.
My
Char-Grilled Char Siew is tender, juicy and well marinated. The
char-grilled add to the intensity of the flavour of the well braised
pork belly. The garlic sauce is quite subtle and does not overpower
the pork belly. The serving is quite generous, especially on the
fries portions unlike the mini portions of the salad.

For
Steak n Tulang (Bone) is more like the meal for the carnivore. The
serving is quite huge, compromising of steak, bone and fries that
fill the plate to the brim. The steak is tender and juicy, but
slightly overcook. The bone marrow make a nice pairing with the meat
and the fries. It is so yummy, The Little Devil really clean the
plate.

Meanwhile
our friend order the grilled pork chop ($13.90) and the cheese burger ($11.90). Unfortunately the pork
chop is a little tough, while the sour cream fries is not crispy due
to the sour cream coating. The burger is tender and juicy, but the
portion is slightly smaller compare to the other mains.

Since
everyone quite stuffed with the mains, we decided to share the
desserts. We reserved one slice of the mille crepe ($6.90) and
Nutella Tart ($6.90). The mille crepe is made from layers of crepe,
cream and maple syrup. However, the difficult part is to find the
balance between the moist crepes and freshness of the cream. At a
first glance, it actually looks very inviting. However, after the
first bite, you realise that the crepe is a little too thick and the
cream was slightly solidified that make the cake to become more
condensed instead of airy. It is actually quite disappointing,
considering the owner of this place made their name in patisserie.

The
Nutella Tart has a solid fillings and crust. It is compact, thick and
heavy. The Nutella taste is also slightly off, seems different from
the taste that you know. Instead of finishing the meal on a high, the
deserts was a let down.

Service
here is good. The service staff here can easily be identified as they
are wearing trendy pink shirts
Overall,
Everything with Fries brings an interesting dining concept with
different flavour of their fries. The food taste good and from a
price point it is easy on the pocket. We would not mind coming back
for more, especially for the unique The One Egg Soup, however we
won't expect to much on the desserts. Cheers!!
