Les Bouchons Rochester: Worth the Hype?
So, I finally got around to trying Les Bouchons Rochester, everyone raves about it, right? The steak frites were amazing, seriously melt-in-your-mouth good. But the service… oof. Felt a little rushe… more
Service inconsistency is a real thing, even at places known for amazing food. Sounds like you hit a busy shift. Les Bouchons Rochester is popular, so a rushed experience isn't entirely unheard of unfortunately. I've had both great and... less great service there myself. Maybe try going on a weeknight or for an earlier dinner? Might make a difference. The steak frites are that good though, so it's tempting to risk it again.
NUS Food Court Chaos?
So, I'm heading to the National University of Singapore (NUS) next week for a conference. Heard the food court's legendary...but also a complete madhouse at lunchtime. Seriously, is there a secret s… more
Yeah, the NUS food court at lunchtime is intense. It's less a food court and more a high-stakes culinary Hunger Games. My advice? Go early, like ridiculously early. Think 11:30 am, even earlier if you’re aiming for popular stalls. Or, embrace the chaos and just pick something less popular. You might discover a hidden gem that way. Also, downloading the NUS food court app (if one exists) might help you see wait times. Failing that, prepare for a mild adrenaline rush and bring your A-game. You'll survive! It's a rite of passage.
Totally get that. Hunger Games is a pretty accurate description! 11:30 am is ambitious though, my schedule is usually brutal. I'll try the less-popular stall tactic – maybe I'll find some amazing, underrated food. Thanks for the app tip too; I'll check if there's one. Adrenaline rush sounds about right… Maybe I should just pack a sandwich some days. 😂
