Family friendly restaurant Saizeriya

In the first picture, Boon Yee and Boon Xin are discussing their favourite snacks, Escargots!

Everytime we go shopping at Hougang 1, we will pass by Saizeriya. We know it is a Japanese Italian fusion restaurant, and we never fail to miss the alluring fragrance of pasta and pizza from the diners.

Somehow, the name Saizeriya is quite hard to remember for Daddy 🙂
By the end of this post, you will remember Saizeriya for two things,
Escargots and Value for money (read wallet friendly).

Escargots is a must try at Saizeriya, because of novelty, because it is tender and sweet, and because it is $5.90 only! In a French restaurant, it would be easily ten times that amount.

Still, Escargots as food is not the same as snails for pets. Daddy bluff the kids that Escargots are some chicken meal. They try it, they liked it, after the last morsel are in our tummy, Daddy revealed Escargots are snails 🙂

“No Yikes, no eeeew!” we will definitely order this plate again.
We give the snails a high rating of (4/5).

(Daddy suggest that parents should not be too eager to share Escargots = slimy snails)
kids eating escargot, affordable escargot, wher to eat escargot

Creamy Mushroom soup for the younger ones. $2.90 only! (3.5/5)

Grab some appetizers while you ponder which main course to order. We recommend the juicy chicken wings (ratings 4/5) and maybe Cheesy Chicken sausage (3/5). The wings are good, but we would prefer to have more cheese in our hotdogs.

Spaghetti Chicken Bolognese for $3.90! Mummmy ordered Seafood Pasta (3/5).

Pizza are always popular with our kids. Bacon Pineapple Pizza (3.5/5) and Salami Pizza (3/5).

Grilled Salmon for Boon Wee (3.5/5).
Value Grilled salmon

Table full of yummy food, Bon Appetit!

We will like to try more Western fare next time. A few tables have ordered their sizzling steaks and the price seems very affordable.
Afordable western food, recommend western food Saizeriya

We are almost full already, but we could not resist ordering some desserts. Yummy Oreo Cheesecake (3.5/5).

Did you notice that our Boon Xin always has the first bite with pastries and sweet stuffs ?

All prices are Nett ! No service charge, no GST !

Our experience with Saizeriya has been superb, we would rate it 4.75/5 overall!
Service is fast, food is good, and prices are wallet friendly.
We are recommending Saizeriya to our friends.

Did we mention drinks are free flow?

ps.. A concerned Mum wrote in to highlight that her daughter’s escargot experience did not end on a pleasant note. She was allergic to Eggs and had to seek medical consultation immediately. More tips on allergy and prevention here and here.

N.E.mation! 8 is too Cool !

We pop by N.E.mation!8’s Downtown Picnic at NLB last Sat.

Storyboards line the exhibition area. We are here today to celebrate the animation projects from the Top 10 teams. We get to witness the Fun and Passion which the students have injected into their animation.

Check out last Saturday’s activities on Instagram #Nemation8 and #NE8DowntownPicnic

N.E.mation!8’s theme is “Because you played a part“.
Yes, this is the 8th edition already.

2013 July 15 to 21 – Registration starts
Sep 07 – 100 teams shortlisted from the secondary schools
Sep 14 – Final 10 teams selected
Jan 18 to Feb 15 – Public voting will determine which Team will fly to USA !

During this period, the students had opportunities to visit workshop and studios, to hone their animation and storytelling skills.

Considering that the students pick up everything from scratch, we are amazed at the quality of their animation, and in such a short span of time too.

All the teams should be proud of their efforts !

Daddy would prefer to have more time to find out more about the individual teams and their projects, if not for these three little fellas :p

To be fair, they did enjoy the paper aeroplane, old-time chocolate Animations 🙂

We even got ourselves some cool Instaprints.

By voting for your favourite 3 clips, stand to win attractive prizes.
