It was an impromptu plan to bring my family and dear out for dinner. But since I've received my bonus, my folks owe me a birthday treat, and with my brother in town, I thought that it was a perfect day for a celebration - my treat!
Vaguely recalling of the restaurants that are located in Tampines 1, I decided to check out the stores listing in Tampines 1 online. Glancing upon F.I.S.H, I did a bit more research at www.hungrygowhere.com and decided to have our dinner there. Tampines One

We were quickly seated upon arrival at F.I.S.H restaurant. I couldn't help but notice how interesting their design concept is. The place seems small, but the combination of white brick walls and bright lightings help to create a more spacious feel. I also noticed a staircase at a corner, and thought that it was a part of their interior design. I was wrong! It led to the upper floors!
Anyway, we quickly ordered our food and realized that we are entitled to a free flow of salad at the salad bar for every main course we ordered.
One of the starters that we ordered - Cream of Fish Soup - was their Soup of the Day. Together with a a free beverage, the Cream of Fish Soup is an add-on to the Main Course which costs $5.50.
Here's my portion from the Salad Bar. The Spaghetti was surprisingly tasty! If you have a spicy tongue, you'd definitely gobble this up!
Another starter - Bruschette Smoked Salmon ($5.95) tasted really good. Though it tastes a tad like garlic bread, the bread itself was really soft yet crispy. The smoked salmon was also a good complement to the crunchy bread. I seriously wouldn't mind ordering this again!
Mom also ordered a starter - Shrimp Egg On Toast Rocket ($6.95) and for an egg love like myself, it immediately appealed to me. Essentially, this dish tasted as it should - egg with bread and shrimp. I would still prefer the Bruschette Smoked Salmon to this. 
It took quite a while for my main course - Baked Salmon Balsamic ($21.95) was the last to arrive. Upon having my first bite, I knew immediately, what needs to be improved. The Salmon was a little dry, and hence one had to rely a lot on the sweet sauce to make it more tasty. What seemed like crispy bread crumbs was also a good garnish, and tasted nice together with the sauce.
Regardless, I really think my friend cooks a much better salmon than this!
Dear and my mom ordered Chargrilled Codfish, but mom changed her creamy sauce to the one that was used for the Salmon. I managed to try a little Codfish, but to be honest, I thought it didn't taste fantastic. I still prefer the Codfish I had at Prive Restaurant; so juicy, soft and succulent!
So we had a widespread of food and our bellies were filled. But for me, it was the satisfaction of seeing my family enjoy a good meal together that was the most fulfilling and lasting. Maybe we should do this more often, but on someone else's treat. Haha!
