Didn’t even know a ‘Jalan Kelulut’ exists till we made a lunch reservation via Eatigo (50% discount *whoots*). It’s in the Seletar Hills area, where there’s lots of landed property but, unfortunately, very few diners. It was a Sunday, at 12noon, and there were only 3 tables (including ours) with guests? Hmm. Interestingly, Pietro appears to be part of the group which also manages Ice Edge Cafe which I absolutely adore. That day, we had the Spaghetti Aglio Olio ($25) and Hawaiian Pizza ($22). Water is complimentary, so props to them for that.

The pizza has an incredibly thin crust so the 8 slices did not prove overwhelming for the 2 of us to finish. The pasta was decent – had lots of olive oil and also some chili padi, which is great.

The food is decent. Nothing to shout about but at 50% discount, nothing to complain about too.
What was disconcerting was when one of the waiters walked by really quickly with a question of whether we wanted an iced water or a warm water refill. My usual response, when people are in such a hurry and when my mouth is full, is to pretend I did not hear the question at all. I didn’t even bother looking up.
My darling, being the sweet and responsive fella he is, immediately said he wants warm water, and one tendril of cheese nearly made its way back to the plate. Image may be NSFW.

Good grief. Just ignore the waiter!
We were also seated next to a guy who sounded like he had TB. He was coughing really badly. So I just wanted to hurry and finish my meal and get out of the restaurant.
Because the restaurant is pretty big, they try to seat diners as close to the kitchen as possible so… maybe… they can serve you quickly. But when business is, shall I say, not so good, you should seat diners closer to the entrance to your restaurant so it gives people walking by the confidence that “hey, there are people dining here so maybe I should too”. If they can’t spot your current diners and/or think this place is deserted, they’ll just walk on to the next eatery.
It’s unlikely we’ll be back. We definitely prefer Ice Edge Cafe. Image may be NSFW.
