Hi all, :)
In the month of May, I visited the King Louis Grill & Bar @ Vivocity. It has a castle theme. Obviously, the management has put some thoughts into it. The shop name, exterior store front, interior design and food menu are all aligned to create the intended atmosphere.
Erm.. hem... Let me try to paint your imagination. :)
The Exterior:
The main entrance is an elaborated fortress with the store name, The King Louis, in an enormous font size.
The Interior:
Standing knights in shiny silver and golden armours, gold-beaded curtains, hanging silver torches, wooden tables and a beautiful castle wallpaper.
There are also modern, leather sofa seats located beside the glass window where you can immense yourself in the seaview. From the view, you can easily see a part of the Integrated Resorts World at Sentosa.
One thing weird though. A black-stripped tiger figurine? Can you imagine that? I am not sure why they would want to place a tiger in the restaurant. Maybe the late King Louis has a thing for tiger?
Food Menu:
There are Knight and Queen Feasts where the dishes are bundled. If I recall correctly, the Knight Feast serves a few selections of meats while the Queen Feast has some meats and seafood. In my opinion, unless you are with your guy friend(s) or love meat, stick to Ala Carte (ordering individual dishes) or order the Queen Feast.
Like many other restaurants, they offer appetizers, soups, main courses and desserts. And of course, they serve wines, beers, liquors and cocktails.
Apparently, I found out from The King Louis website that the restaurant serves Medieval cuisine. I wiki-ed Medieval cuisine and it was described as "the foods, eating habits, and cooking methods of various European cultures during the Middle Ages, a period roughly dating from 5th to the 16th century."
Okay, enough of painting. A picture speaks a thousand words. Here are some photos that I had taken:

The King Louis Menu
Mushroom Soup - Rather creamy and full of fresh mushroom aroma
Pork Chop Served with Salad and Grilled Potato - The meat is quite tender and juicy. The mushroom sauce topping is ok, a little oily though. I really love the corns! The dressing is superb! Not sure what it consists of but it tastes sour. When you bite the corns, the sweet juice of the corns and the sour dressing complement each other so well. Like a married couple!
Fish & Chips Served with Salad and Potato Wedges - The fish is a generous portion. It is very tender and fresh. The amount of flour coating is fair enough. However, it is a little too oily for me.
A Glass of White Wine - I am not an expert in wines. But I just love drinking them!
Vanilla Ice Cream with Tiny Chocolate Bits, Topped with Chocolate Syrup - The sweetness of the ice cream is just right! It is fairly creamy. And I love biting the chocolate bits.
Overall, I would rate the food 4/5, customer service 4/5, ambience 4/5. For those who have comments, please feel free to share with everyone here.
