Novotel Clarke Quay
- Thread starter teddy_pang
- Start date
Just went to Novotel CQ for a wedding dinner.
Food is average (sharkfin too starchy). Service is not too good (they are in a rush to clear the dishes when we are still eating. Kept asking us if they can clear the plates even after we requested for more time. They will come back very soon and ask again.)
Spiral carpark which is a negative point. Enough parking space. The Queue out was not too long for me (about 10mins wait).
Ballroom is not bad and with no pillars. The reception area is also spacious enough and toilets are nearby.
Overall, i will not choose this hotel for my own wedding.

Hi all,
gone for my food tasting last week. Here is our review.
1) Cold dish
Springroll - good
jellyfish - not sour & salty enough
Meatroll(Wu xiang) - good
Mini Octopus - still okie, abit big
Prawn salad - okie
2) sharkfin - good, our parents and sibling like it. not too dilute or starchy
3) Chicken with fried garlic - Parents comment abit too salty. we find it still okie but some part really is more salty. The manager explain that it is due to the sauce at the bottom of the plate so meat at the bottom will be more salty. Overall still okie. so we keeping it as it is.
4) Rock Garoupa - Parents comment presentation not very nice cos it is black colour, size abit small, meat abit tough and taste is "muddy". we comment it as poor cos we have some incident before this dish.
The waiter came out with huge red Garoupa and start to cut it. We are so shock and stop him immediately though he already start cutting. Then verify with the manager. After looking at our menu, he said today is special, and usually they will present red garoupa instead of the Rock and no extra cost will be incur. So we replied that we are unable to know what is the exact taste for the rock garoupa. he just said the taste is almost the same and size will be smaller. when we are about to finish the fish, the manager came over told us we are right. they brought in the wrong fish. it is meant for the VIP room which has 16 ppl.
all of us love the fish especially our parents. maybe this is reason that we commented the rock garoupa as poor. cos there is something to compare. Now we are being pressure to change to red garoupa due to the presentation and taste.
5) live prawn - very fresh, 2 pieces per person. each size is reasonable
6) Yam ring with vege - excellent! not too salty & oily. we just love the Yam!
7) Ee-fu noodle - still okie (some of us already full due to 2 fishes) and we do find it abit oily.
8) Cream of mango with pomelo - refreshing, not bitter and sour but abit dilute as compare to outside. we did comment that we wan to have sweet pomelo during actual day but unfortunately pomelo will not be sweet during june. hopefully mango will be sweet enough to cover it.
