Being a family restaurant, the thoughtfully curated menu has something for everyone.&nbsp; There is grilled meat (steaks, grilled chicken etc), pasta, pizzas, burgers, Mexican food (tacos, burritos), British grub etc. For tykes, they have designed a children\u2019s menu which will definitely appeal to them.&nbsp; Lastly, their secret weapon is an array of mouth-watering milkshakes to keep your little ones satisfied and entertained.&nbsp; I dare you adults to try and resist all these milkshakes. You know how restaurants always try to get you to order beverages because that is a good source of revenue for them? Well, The Co-op doesn\u2019t try that lame tactic.&nbsp; Instead, they very generously provide FREE FREE-FLOW soft drink (U.P. $3.90) with any and all mains (there is no typo in this sentence).&nbsp; On top of the FREE FREE-FLOW soft drink, you only have to top up an additional $2.90 to get a soup as well.&nbsp; Alternatively, top up an additional $4.90 to get a soup AND an ice-cream.&nbsp; Where else can you find such a good deal in Singapore?&nbsp; I feel like I struck lottery!&nbsp; If you dine here every day, then would it feel like striking lottery every day? Best of all, if you are a student, you can enjoy a student lunch deal comes at $6.90 NETT (!!!!!!!!!)&nbsp; For $6.90 nett, students can enjoy Popcorn Chicken Tacos, a chicken burger or Aglio Olio Pasta.&nbsp; For $8.90 nett, they can choose from a beef burger, fish and chips or chicken pasta.&nbsp; AND the student lunch deal comes with FREE-FLOW drink (there is also no typo in this sentence).&nbsp; Ah!!! To be young and a student again.&nbsp; The student deal is only available on weekdays (excluding public holidays) from 11am to 5pm.&nbsp; Reed\u2019s Ginger Brew $5.90 One thing I like about The Blackhole Group\u2019s restaurants is that, besides the usual Coca Cola, Sprite etc, they have really interesting drinks.&nbsp; This one is an all-natural, Jamaican ginger ale.&nbsp; It has a really tropical, ginger taste.&nbsp; Best of all,&nbsp; it is gluten-free, caffeine-free, GMO-free (wow!) and it has no preservatives. AUS Grass-fed Tenderloin 200gm $34.90 Comes with a choice of 2 side dishes and choice of 1 sauce This dish is a Co-op \u201coriginal\u201d.&nbsp; It is not found in the other restaurants of The Blackhole Group.&nbsp; The tenderloin was indeed heavenly.&nbsp; It was so tender.&nbsp; Gosh!!! I missed having a tenderloin and I am so glad I don\u2019t have to run downtown to enjoy one.&nbsp;&nbsp; The fresh, light Garden Salad was a perfect complement to the (heavier) beef.&nbsp; I also like that they have also used baby potatoes and not regular potatoes for the Potato Salad. Summer Roast Dinner $19.90 (from The Mad Sailors British Kitchen) Australian grass-fed flank steak (150 gm), beef bacon, baked beans, coleslaw, red potato salad, Yorkshire pudding, black peppercorn sauce. It was beautifully presented.&nbsp; I like how dainty and graphic the presentation looks.&nbsp; I also appreciate the opportunity to enjoy a roast dinner any time I want.&nbsp; Most pubs run by Westerners only offer a roast dinner on Sundays.&nbsp; Speaking of Western pubs, the roast dinner here is definitely on par with those offered by Western pubs.&nbsp; In particular, I appreciate how the sweet, coleslaw refreshes you and balances the rest of the items on the plate. Cajun Chicken Quesadillas $13.90 (from Afterwit Taqueria) Cajun spiced chicken breast, caramelised onions, corn kernels, tomatoes and mozzarella cheese in a grilled flour tortilla served with Mexican rice and tortilla chips The quesadillas was really flavourful.&nbsp; I once tasted a quesadilla made by a chef who had worked in Hilton, Sheraton and other 5-star hotels for 15 years.&nbsp; This quesadilla was definitely on par with the Sheraton one.&nbsp; It was very creamy inside and the caramelised onions are really interesting.&nbsp; Besides the usual sweetness, it has a bit of a mild spiciness.&nbsp; This gives it a little kick and lifts the whole quesadilla.&nbsp; The Mexican rice was absolutely delish&#8212;&#8212; each grain was distinct, firm and completely soaked with flavour.&nbsp; This is also a very filling plate.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Churros $7.90 (from Afterwit Taqueria) Fried Spanish donuts (x4) served with chocolate dip The churros arrived warm.&nbsp; When you bite into the crispy, sugary crust and it\u2019s all warm and fluffy inside, oohhhhhhhh! Gula Melaka Latte $6.90 Gula Melaka, vanilla cream, coffee jelly I really liked this one.&nbsp; It is everything it professes to be.&nbsp; You can taste the Gula Melaka, the vanilla cream and the coffee jelly.&nbsp; The coffee jelly was particularly delicious.&nbsp; Also, this is an amazingly advanced milkshake.&nbsp; You have the distinctly Southeast Asian flavour of the Gula Melaka balanced by the Western vanilla; the bitter-sweetness of the coffee jelly blending and complementing the sweetness of the Gula Melaka and the sweetness of the vanilla.&nbsp; Complex and advanced. Cappuccino $3.50 The most affordable cappuccino I have seen in Singapore! I am particularly impressed by the staff here.&nbsp; All of the dishes above (except the Gula Melaka Latte) were competently executed by Chef Ash.&nbsp; I love the thoughtful plating of all the dishes and the careful attention to detail as evident by the placing of sprigs of rosemary on both the beef dishes.&nbsp; Mr Handri, who served me, has the patience of a saint.&nbsp; He calmly and capably attended to all the needs of the customers. I can\u2019t believe he kept his cool as his attended to a customer in front of me who kept \u201ccustomizing\u201d her orders&#8212;&#8211; more of this, less of that, sauce on side, requesting a special non-spicy version not on the menu etc.&nbsp; He also made me the Gula Melaka Latte&#8212;&#8211; he is good at that too. Whew!&nbsp; That was \u201chit\u201d after \u201chit\u201d of dishes.&nbsp;&nbsp; Compilation albums are indisputably the best value for money and The Co-op is no different.&nbsp; The experience and the cuisine here definitely made it worth my time coming here.&nbsp; This \u201ccompilation album\u201d will definitely soar up the charts very soon!
