A few weeks ago, Nicolette and I went to have lunch with my mum near her workplace. We went to this place called "Prince Coffee House", which was highly recommended by my mum. I honestly thought it was a Thai restaurant when I first entered because of the way it was decorated and because of the staffs' uniforms. My mum had to explain to me that it was not Thai and was in fact inspired from the early days of Singapore and the Singapore Airlines (SIA) uniforms. I was quite surprised to know that this place has been around for over 30 years!
We decided to buy a Western set meal each and share among ourselves. Since my mum can't eat chicken due to her Chinese medicine, I got the fish and chips, Nicolette got grilled fish and my mum ordered pork chop. Each set meal includes the main dish, a drink, a soup and dessert (ice cream or fruits)! The price is reasonable too, around $10 for one set, especially when they give you so much. The taste, was without a doubt, very good (thumbs up). Their mushroom soup was damn creamy and good. Being a huge fan of mushroom soups, this one was beyond satisfying. Just looking at the photo while I'm typing this is making me crave for their food. That's how delicious it was.
I would definitely go back there again with Nicolette in the near future to try their other set meals (most probably the chicken ones, sorry mum). Prince Coffee House is not just known for their affordable Western set meals, they sell Hainanese / Chinese food as well. I might try those too in future haha. But what they are really famous for, is their chicken pie. It was a shame that we didn't get to try that (partly because I didn't have any room in my stomach left for more food). I'll just have to add that into the list of food to buy there.

After lunch, my mum told us to take a walk around Haji Lane and take some photos since Prince Coffee House is located there. We strolled around for a while before my mum had to go back to work, so Nicolette and I walked by ourselves. We found ourselves entering 'Grammah', a shop that sells female clothing inspired by what our grandmothers wore during the 70s and 80s. They also have an assortment of old school goodies inside the shop, which takes you back in time. Nicolette saw a blue long dress that she really liked and immediately went to try it on. After trying it on, she decided to buy it because she really loved the dress. We didn't stay at Haji Lane for long and we went off to Tanjong Pagar to talk.
