Having visited Olives on several occasions before when catching up with friends who live in the Gloucester Road area, I was delighted when an event took me to that side of town again! The food was delicious - crispy calamari, one of my favourite lasagnes/lasagnas (I take lasagne/lasagna seriously, and a magical creme brûlée - lavender and white chocolate, a winning combination. The service was friendly & polished, and the prices while fairly high, were nothing out of the ordinary for this part of town. I will be returning! Ps lots of great wines on offer too - I loved the chianti!
White table cloth setting.
Slow service but not bad.
Outstanding food!!! Singaporean cuisine!
Legendary - as good as it gets
• The Laksa. Wish there was more broth. It was oh so good.
Loved - must order again!
• Nasi Goreng ***
• The chili oil ****
Liked - could do again
• Dim sum platter
• Malaysian chicken curry - chicken was a bit tough and curry was thick and gelatinous

The Bugis offers a fusion of Singaporean, Malaysian and Chinese cuisine on the ground floor of the Baileys Hotel in South Kensington.

We really did enjoy the food, all the flavours were great but I have to say it is a bit overpriced in my opinion and I'm not sure I'd pay that much. But if you are fine with the prices it definitely hits the spot and portions are decent too.
