Now that church has moved to Suntec, we often need to find food places for lunch fellowship that is affordable, not too crowded and big enough to hold our group of around 10-15 people. Thus, I hope to share with you some food places my cellgroup visited for lunch in CityEats! - a guide to fellowship-friendly places around Suntec! (haha, hopefully I can keep this up!)
How does a place qualify to be fellowship-friendly? Important factors to take note below:
Affordability – preferably less than $10 per person, the most up to $20
Ambience – big enough to hold a cellgroup of around 15 members, nice and comfy for extended conversation without being chased off, relatively easy to get to
Appetizing – food should taste good!
The first in this series: Chicking Fried Chicken located at Marina Square. To get there, you walk towards Esplanade Link, see Coffee & Toast and turn right to the entrance into Marina Square. You will see the distinctive red restaurant quite soon after that.
Chicking was established in the UAE since 2000 and is expanding into South East Asia. It cost $6.50 for a two piece meal with mashed potato, coleslaw and a drink. I got the original flavor and found it very similar to KFC. The chicken pieces were really small comparatively. The mashed potato gravy tasted weird to me, with its dark brown colour. The coleslaw was nothing to shout about.
My rating:
Affordability – 4 for its fast food prices
Ambience – 3 since it’s just a short walk from Suntec, but the place is quite small, and we took up most of the available tables there
Appetizing - 2 CMI!
3 upon 5 - It would have gotten a much lower rating based on taste of the chicken itself but considering it was able to accommodate us and generally affordable enough, it gets a 3 upon 5!
We had a good time of fellowship, especially with our very friendly new fren from Japan, Yoshi! The photos below were all taken by him!
