I know that I wrote this a little late. It was a last week's event. Well, I have always passed by this restaurant where it's always full of people. This restaurant is named Cafe Iguana. It's just beside Brewerkz which is a restaurant and pub with a mini-brewery concept. They are located at Riverside Point. Brewerkz and Cafe Iguana belongs to the same company. By the name of Cafe Iguana itself, who the hell knows what kind of food it offers?? But most likely you have made a good guess that Iguana is linked to a place or something.
Well, here's the little mystery. Wild green iguanas are found naturally in Mexico. And so, they bank on this iguana concept for this restaurant. Little bit of iguana found everywhere, on the crew's shirt, on the menu and on the walls. Other than that, everything else is mexican.
They have a great mexican menu which I supposed could be nothing special to a Mexican, I don't know. To us, they look alien.
So I made an order that is sort of Mexican curry with rice. This place is famous for their variety of Magaritas and Tequilas. Well, for my dinner, I had a mango magarita.
The food was great. They provided some chilli sauce which again looked alien to us. 2 bottles, 1 bottle that is bright green in colour (the kind that looks like chemical green) and the other is a little brownish in colour. I can only see the "XXXtra hot.." description on the brown one. Hmmmmm.. how do they taste like?
Here are some pictures which I happen to find them on the web:


The green chilli tastes good and it's great to go with the flavorful mexican food. The green colour really makes you wonder about their taste. Now, I just felt like it was the best chilli sauce. Next was the XXXtra hot one. On initial taste, it wasn't hot at all. After maybe 10 seconds, it burns your tongue! Phew.. what a dangerous sauce!
I love their chilli sauces. Only on the web that I happen to find that they are made from the Habanero Chilli. It is one of the most spicy chilli of the Capsicum range. Find out more about Habaneros.
Overall, this restaurant has a great concept and great food. I love it.
