Some hotels these days have showers that just aren\u2019t hot enough, and despite some of them calling themselves 5-star hotels, they don\u2019t even have a tub.

big eaters, we didn&#8217;t dare to order everything because the menu was really extensive and we might not be able to finish everything. The food was delicious, like an elevated <em>tze char<\/em> experience where not even one dish disappointed us. We were just &#8220;mm&#8221;-ing throughout lunch!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among these dishes, there were also some standouts that we had to give honourable mention:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Black Ink Sotong: <\/strong>This dish was the one I was going to be the most critical about, because it\u2019s my absolute favourite dish of all time, and I only trust my best friend and myself to cook it right. My criticisms were thrown out the window after the first bite, because the consistency, flavours and sotong (squid) texture was just right. The gravy was inky <em>blacc, thicc,<\/em> yet fluid, the flavours had the right amount of turmeric and the squid was peeled clean from its purple film and had no residue inside. My only complaint is that the flavour profile is sweet, rather than spicy, because I am a spice demon. That&#8217;s good thing, because then this is easily suitable for everyone&#8217;s taste profile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Crispy Curry Drumlette: <\/strong>This is fried chicken done right \u2013 the batter was light, crispy and slightly spicy, but not oily. The chicken meat was tender and hot, that when you bite off the bone, the mist releases itself from the confines of the bones and into the air, creating that classic fried chicken advertisement moment. We had second rounds of this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chap Chye: <\/strong>All the vegetables we ordered were impeccable that it was so hard to choose between them, so we chose this chap chye because it had the edge of having different textures in one dish. The sweetness of the cabbage went very well with the savoury profile of the bean curd skin, while the vermicelli adds a springiness to the crunchy cabbage and chewy bean curd skin. Well-balanced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kung Pao Chicken: <\/strong>Most kung pao chicken dishes just end up being sweet. This is not the case with White Rose Cafe\u2019s kung pao chicken, it had the very famed \u2018Wok Hey\u2019 smokiness to it, adding a great deal of depth. On first bite, it\u2019s sweet, then as you chew and finish it, it leaves behind dried chilli and sweet tinge of smokiness that\u2019s insanely addictive. Second-round-worthy again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Stir-Fried Spicy Clams: <\/strong>These clams have a very Thai flavour profile, which was garlicky, basil-y and sweet. Most clams you end up ordering at <em>tze char<\/em> places have this distinct sea bitterness to it, but these clams have none of that, which means they have been boiled and cleaned properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bean Curd with Chye Poh: <\/strong>This simple dish might not seem like much, but the flavours and texture is very much so. The fried bean curd skin complements well with soft and sour bean curd innards, while the chye poh, garlic, chilli, and soy sauce give a much welcome punch to the bean curd. Light, refreshing, and second round-worthy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Silver Fish Omelette: <\/strong>This omelette is a Chinese-style omelette where it\u2019s well-done, round, and packed with ingredients. It\u2019s light, fluffy, and soft, with the silver fish adding saltiness to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Achar: <\/strong>The cucumbers were appropriately pickled \u2013 they weren\u2019t limp, nor were they tough. There\u2019s a distinct vinegar-y and lemon-y flavour to the cucumber, which went well with the sweet, spicy, and salty brine. This is further elevated by the peanuts adding a more complex and savoury flavour profile to it, which is amazing by itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Chendol: <\/strong>This was the star of the desserts because the coconut milk was milky, yet fluid, and the mixture played well with the gula melaka (palm sugar). The red beans added chewiness, while the green jelly added light springiness to complete this famed dessert. Second round-worthy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Breakfast Buffet: Daily Ala-Carte<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-16 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8645.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"22029\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8645.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/img_8645\/\" class=\"wp-image-22029\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8645.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8645-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8645-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8645-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8647.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"22031\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8647.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/img_8647\/\" class=\"wp-image-22031\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8647.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8647-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8647-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8647-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Breakfast is included if you book with the Sweet Romance package. Much like lunch, it&#8217;s also an ala carte buffet, where everything is freshly prepared upon order. York Hotel&#8217;s generous buffet breakfast runs from 7am to 10am daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Breakfast Buffet Menu<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Ordered?<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tropical Fruit Platter<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Compote<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Muesli<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Assortment of Breads<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sunrise Breakfast<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Spaghetti Aglio Olio<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>American Pancake<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Nasi Lemak<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Oriental Chicken Congee<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dim Sum Selection<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Naan Bread<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cheese and Sliced Smoked Duck Breast<\/td><td>\u2705<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Amongst the dishes we ordered, there were a few that were standouts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>American Pancake: <\/strong>I\u2019ve never been a fan of pancakes in the morning; something about their plainness and diabetically-inducing maple syrup just doesn\u2019t sit well with me. This pancake however, was light, fluffy, decidedly buttery and eggy. No, it wasn\u2019t smeared with butter, the pancake batter itself is buttery and eggy. It\u2019s so good, and added depth to this otherwise basic dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nasi Lemak: <\/strong>I\u2019m Malay, so nasi lemak in the morning is nothing foreign to me. Sadly most of Singapore\u2019s nasi lemak leaves me wanting, because I find that the rice frankly sucks. They either substitute for cheaper evaporated milk, skimp on the coconut milk or just get the ratio between rice, coconut milk, and water wrong. York Hotel&#8217;s nasi lemak is just perfect; it\u2019s very similar to the famed Nasi Lemak Antarabangsa in Kampung Baru, Kuala Lumpur, with firmer rice and a distinct coconut milk taste without it being smudgy or overpowering.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dim Sum Selection: <\/strong>I was particularly impressed with the homemade lo mai gai and vegetable dumpling. The lo mai gai was wrapped in lotus leaves, and had chicken filling \u2013 the glutinous rice was sticky but not chewy, while the chicken was tender and brimming with flavours. The vegetable dumpling\u2019s filling was chap chye, so it was an instant favourite because of the veggies\u2019 multitude of textures, well-balanced flavours, and lightness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cheese &amp; Sliced Smoked Duck Breast: <\/strong>I was pleasantly surprised that York Hotel offers a cheese platter, which is becoming a rarity these days. It\u2019s one of the things that I always look out for when I\u2019m at a hotel breakfast buffet, and I was not disappointed. Chef Ho Chan Fei has opted to ditch the usual assortment of cold cuts in favour of smoked duck breast, which not only balanced the parmesan cheese, but also added depth and texture to this dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>White Rose Caf\u00e9&#8217;s Head Chef<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8528.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22001\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8528.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8528-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8528-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8528-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The mastermind behind this menu and these excellent dishes is Singapore-born Chef Ho Chan Fei, or commonly addressed as \u2018Chef Fei\u2019. We had a quick chat with him and requested to take a photo of him at White Rose Caf\u00e9 \u2013 we had to put a face to these amazing dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We found out that Chef Fei has over 26 years of culinary experience and kitchen management experience in high-end hotels and restaurants in Singapore. In addition to local cuisines, he also specialises in classic French fare. Chef Fei also has got a wealth of experience with banquet and off-site catering events, including the annual Formula One Singapore Grand Prix, and Istana events with his culinary brigade of over 80 chefs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>York Hotel: Hotel Staff &amp; White Rose Caf\u00e9 Service<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This deserves a paragraph on its own because the service is really exemplary. From front desk to White Rose Caf\u00e9, the service was nothing short of friendly, accommodating, and prompt. As mentioned earlier, Desmond and Rachel were good at making our check-in process as smooth as possible, while Jennifer Lim, Jennifer Long, Tow Siok Luan and Steven Lim made sure we were attended to promptly when we were dining at White Rose Caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It must be said that when we were heading to White Rose Cafe for breakfast, we were in a morning daze and we forgot our masks. We only realised this when my friend reached the entrance of White Rose Caf\u00e9 and mentioned it, and I was like, \u201cThis is what happens when I don\u2019t get my morning coffee.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Without skipping a heartbeat, Jennifer Long said \u201cI will get the masks for you from the front desk!\u201d We were just in shock and in awe that she would do this for us. For lunch, she and Jennifer Lim handed us a clear plastic bag for us to put our masks in so that it wouldn\u2019t get dirty, almost like a synchronised dance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was also this conversation between Jennifer Long and another older gentleman during breakfast, that we couldn\u2019t help to eavesdrop on because the table was behind us. The gentleman asked for Jennifer\u2019s name, and if she would be working the day after and subsequent days, to which she said yes. The gentleman said \u201cOh good, I hope to see you then!\u201d, and to which Jennifer replied \u201cOkay, I will remember your order.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this isn\u2019t commitment to excellent service, I don\u2019t know what is, because it\u2019s not just us that were treated like royalty, it\u2019s others as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such exemplary service is built up over the years, because we learnt that many of York Hotel\u2019s staff have actually worked there for over 20 to 30 years. While architecture and decor might change, service does not, where the staff know what it takes to treat their guests like they are taken care of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exemplary service is the main reason why people go back to a hotel or an establishment, and York Hotel exceeds in that regard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>York Hotel: Facilites, Gym &amp; Pool<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-17 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8485.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"21957\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8485.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/img_8485\/\" class=\"wp-image-21957\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8485.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8485-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8485-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8485-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8486.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"21958\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8486.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/img_8486\/\" class=\"wp-image-21958\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8486.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8486-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8486-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.you.co\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/09\/IMG_8486-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>York Hotel does not have much in the way of facilities, with most people accessing the pool and gym.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s a kids\u2019 pool and an adult\u2019s pool, whose depths go to 0.5m and 1.4m respectively. The beauty of it is the isolation, most likely you\u2019ll be able to have the pool to yourselves because of COVID-19 restrictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of which, you have to book the pool and gym if you wish to use it. The pool is limited to 12 people between the kids\u2019 and adult pool, while the gym is limited to six. It should be noted that if you want to use the pool and gym consecutively, you have to check-in and out at the front desk.
