Phoebe recommended L’Entrecôte at Duxton Hill for steaks and fries. The restaurant is unique because it serves only steaks and fries as their main dish. From a short background on their menu, the restaurant believes in serving one great dish than a selection of anything less.
The place is beautiful and cozy that I just had to take pictures.
We were initially turned off by their service when the waiter, presumably eager to go home because we never saw him again after taking our orders, snapped at us for no reason at all. This shocked me and pissed Phoebe off. Good thing he was relieved by another person who seemed happy to see us there.
The main dish is priced at S$29.90 (Php 1046) and comes with a serving of walnut salad, steak with their signature mushroom sauce and unlimited fries. Very reasonable.
They don't immediately serve all the steak, so the portion shown on the picture is about more than half the actual serving.
Since Em-J and I are not wine drinkers, we ordered fruit juices to complement our meal. Cranberry juice tasted generic.
We loved the food so much that we decided to eat there again and this time our meal came with a glass of wine. Apparently, this is included in the price. If that's not enough for you, which is the case for Em-J, you can go big at S$39.90 (Php 1397). He didn't notice that much of a difference, though.
There were a lot of selections for desserts. I immediately decided on the lemon tart (S$12, Php 420) which was good.
Em-J and Phoebe decided against their initial choices and went for the recommendations of the staff or was she the owner? They ordered the Profiteroles de L’Entrecôte and the Half-Baked Chocolate Cake (S$14, Php 490 each). Desserts, though good, were not as spectacular as the main dish so we skipped them the next time.
We also loved how beautiful the quiet area of Duxton Hill looks.

That steak got me hungry -- and it's past 10pm, haha!
I'm trying to add your blog to my Feedly, but it seems your RSS feed (http://carloboi.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default) stopped updating since January? You had that last post about moving URLs. Thought I'd let you know :-)
Such a glorious feast! The salad is winking at me! :D
I'm not surprised you've moved.
I also moved literally. :)
@bluearden - thanks for letting me know. fixed it now, hopefully it works.
@docgelo - you're staying in Dubai for good?
