Miam Miam - I believe this is not a stranger name to all of you, is Yum Yum in French! A short introduction of Yum Yum Miam Miam before I introduce a game that is currently ongoing till 31st October 2014!

Miam Miam is a casual Artisanal French café-restaurant that brings together a mixture of French Artisanal Cuisine & Techniques with influences derived from traditional Japanese preparation & cooking arts.

Everything in Miam Miam is made from scratch, and all are very standardised. 

Pastas were equally weighed at 120grams, ingredients too and the sauce is individually packed, to ensure a standardisation in all their food. Matcha latte were also whisked.

So after you placed an order, you may need to wait for 15-20 mins before your food arrive at your table because they cook with love.

The decor here is simple and clean, very comfortable and cozy for diners. Every table has a call-bell which you can press to call for service. I love any restaurants with such technology.

Those without, sometimes no matter how we waved out to the staff when we were out eating, they still did not see us. *annoying*

And now, the GAMES!

Miam Miam had launched 2 new competitions in the month of October.

One competition plays tribute to tic-tac-toe that has transcended generations. 
Another is an Instagram contest, where the picture with most likes wins a Beats Headphone worth S$420!

PEANUT BUTTER & BANANA MILKSHAKE S$8.20

Creamy peanut butter and fresh banana, blended with milk. Or you can also opt for no peanut butter, which makes it Banana Milkshake. But don't do that because this is so creamy, thick and good. Peanut butter milkshake so far has never go wrong yet.

MATCHA HOT CHOCOLATE S$7.80

Warming and slightly decadent, this drink is the perfect sweet treat for any time of the day. Sip slow and you can enjoy the creamy yet delicate flavour.

MATCHA SMOOTHIE WITH RED BEAN CREAM S$8.80

Matcha softee blended with their special matcha honey and ice, topped with a scoop of homemade red bean cream.

ICED MATCHA LATTE WITH MATCHA SOFTEE S$8.80

We find that the matcha latte is a little bland, we prefer the matcha smoothie with a heavier matcha taste!

CLAM CHOWDER

Minestrone is also available. Ask their friendly staff to see what is bubbling for that day! Prices of soup from S$5.80 onwards.

RIZ AU CURRY S$15.50

Baked rice with homemade japanese curry, pork, frankfurters, broccoli, cheese & egg. Voted the favourite among my dining companion!

MAC & CHEESE S$14.50

Oven-baked fresh pasta shells with Miam Miam's selection of 4 special cheeses with crunchy Japanese breadcrumbs. Not the usual Mac & Cheese out there.

Don't expect to take a video porn of the cheese, because it is not how it look like. Not much of the ''cheese pulling'' out of the pot. It is a little dry to me, and I am not a very cheese person.

MIAM MIAM SPAGHETTI S$15.80

My personal favourite! Miam Miam's all time favourite, sautéed with frankfurters, tomatoes, baby spinach and protein… bacon! Tossed with french butter and their secret broth & shoyu.

Couldn't stop eating this, and I cleaned up the plate, thanks to my dining companion who didn't eat much of the spinach, tomatoes & brinjals/egg plant. Lucky me. :P

Japanese style spaghetti is lighter and has cleaner flavours than in the west, thats why this is perfect for me!

SOUFFLE AU CURRY S$15.50 (curry rice with fluffy cloud of egg, cream & cheese)
SOUFFLE DE NUAGE S$15.50 (tomato rice with fluffy cloud of egg, cream & cheese)

Souffle, yes and not a dessert this time! Its is rice topped with fluffy clouds of egg, cream and cheese. 
And you get to choose from 2 different rice, the curry rice (the same curry as Riz Au Curry) & fresh tomato sautéed rice. 

 photo file_zps745e9db4.jpg

I would suggest this dish to be shared, as on twice occasions I had soufflé rice and I couldn't finish, halfway through, I felt that I already had enough. So why not order a few mains and share among your friends, you get to try everything too!

RIZ NOIR S$16.50

I am sorry I couldn't capture anything black/brown/yellowish. Have to make sure the egg is not too bright and the black rice can be seen. 

It is actually Squid Ink Rice with Assorted Seafood & Omu Eggs. I think I am the only one who think that squid ink rice smells great! But after eating, I dare not open my mouth to talk or smile, to prevent myself from showing the black lips and teeth :X

Here come the much awaited desserts!

MIAM MIAM FRENCH TOAST S$9.80

I see that this is an absolute must-order for every table! Soft & fluffy toast sprinkled with icing sugar and topped with a dollop of cream. 

Surprisingly the cream is not sweet or not overly sickening after a while. It is non fat, you have to give it a try.

CREAM CHEESE SOUFFLE PANCAKE S$10.80

The thickest pancake you can ever find. It has cubes of cream cheese inside this thick piece of pancake, it comes with caramel sauce and I would think that the pancake will be too dry without the sauce. 

You may also choose to top up S$0.80/S$1.20 for whipped cream & vanilla softee respectively.

VALRHONA CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE S$13.80 

Indulge in a true moment of ecstasy with heavenly decadent melted chocolate on top of your soufflé. Its a little sunken here as we took too long to snap pictures. Nonetheless, we enjoyed this sinful treat. 

They have soufflés with matcha & vanilla too!

Lastly, please remember to collect the stamps on the game card & upload your photos to instagram!
