Charly T’s

This is a review of lunch with a colleague at Charly T’s in I12 Shopping Centre.
The ambiance is clean and modern. Charly T’s is not ornate but there are splashes of colour and accents to provide it with a small touch of flare.
The service was very friendly. You order at the counter. They bring your food to the table. The food arrived in a timely manner. However, there was one mistake. My colleague ordered macaroni and cheese as one of his two sides. But another side was brought instead. She took care of this right away though.
The food ranged from barely edible to poor. Their specialty is rotisserie chicken and they also have burgers.
CT Burger plus cheese — This is based on my personal taste. This was one of the worst burgers I’ve ever eaten. I just did not like the taste of the beef. Plus, the burger was way overcooked. It was also very dense. It was bathed in a BBQ sauce that partially masked the poor taste of the beef. Without this, I would not even of be able to eat it. The condiments were fresh though. The bun was just a basic sesame seed bun like you can purchase at a market. The fries were average.
¼ Original Chicken (thigh) + two apps — This was my colleagues lunch. It did not look very appetizing and he did not enjoy it that much. The chicken was also very small and not very meaty. The sides appeared to be very basic.
Receipt (Lunch for 2 — $ 40.55) — At just over $ 40, it is quite a bit of scratch for a lunch that wasn’t very good.
Overall — If this review was based purely on food, it would be a one star review. However, the friendly staff and slightly better than average ambiance squeak out a second star. I do not plan on returning here and I would never recommend anyone to try Charly T’s.

Charly T’s is a modern Western International restaurant, whose food is inspired by the chef’s travels. This restaurant is famous for its Rotisserie Chicken served with a variety of special dips. The chicken was tender and juicy, while the skin was roasted till flavorsome and fragrant. Charly T does not use frozen chicken, and the difference is portrayed through the flavor. Another great dish is the Kalua Pork, which was adopted from Hawaii. Marinated with tea leaves, the pork belly is soft and burst with flavor.
This restaurant has 3 separate sitting areas and each one are distinct. There is an indoor sitting area, a private room with Peranakan décor and an outdoor balcony area with couches. The different sitting areas make the restaurant suitable for big gatherings. Charly T’s has a television that broadcasts the international soccer matches, so it is also a place to watch soccer in comfort with your friends.
