The restaurant serves the several kinds of meats of satays. I ordered only the Chicken of Satays. The satays were sweet and sumptuous. The peanut sauce was also delicious. I've had a skewered chicken once in a while in Japan but it wasn't as nice as this.

I stopped by this restaurant after checked checking in at a hotel late one afternoon. I was walking around near the hotel, then I was attracted by a savoury smell and the nice atmosphere of the restaurant.

I highly recommend having Satays at any restaurant that offers al fresco dining when you'll visit in Singapore.

The satays were sweet and sumptuous.  Also The peanut sauce was flavourful too (3). I've had I have a skewered chicken once in a while (4) in Japan which wasn't as sweet like it.

I stepped by passed by this restaurant after I checked in at a hotel late in the late afternoon. I was walking  near the hotel, then when I was attracted by a savoury smell and nice atmosphere of the restaurant.

I highly recommend you to try the satays at the restaurant which provides al fresco dining when you'll visit in Singapore.

Hi Hiro, 

I noticed that you used the phrase "highly recommend" correctly. You are more careful with your use of "the" as well. Good job! Keep it up.

Just some suggestions for you:

(1) Notice that you use "several", which is a quantifier for describing a few plural countable nouns. Hence, you should use "kinds".

(2) I would like to share that some nouns exists in both countable and uncountable forms, depending on the way they are referred. Referred as a substance that provides nourishment, "meat" is uncountable. On the other hand, different types of meats are countable. You may wish to refer to this URL for further reference: https://www.englishclub.com/ref/esl/Nouns_that_are_Count_and_Noncount/meat_2998.htm

As a further example: 

Glass:  (Glass (uncountable noun) is a fragile material.) / Three glasses (countable noun) of water, please.

(3) "Also" and "too" have similar functions of providing an additional idea for consideration. The use of both in a sentence is redundant.

(The peanut sauce was sweet too. / The peanut sauce was also sweet.)

(4) From your use of "once in a while", I presume that you are still consuming skewered chicken occasionally. Therefore, I changed "have got" to "have", which is in the simple present tense. Simple present tense is used to describe an action that recurs (happen again and again). 

Hope this helps.
Cheers, 
Lance

The restaurant serves the several kind of meats of satays. I ordered only the chicken of satays. The satays was were (since there was more than one satay. Were is used to describe more than one object).sweet and sumptuous (Interesting word choice. It works fine, but I thought I'd mention that it isn't used a lot by native speakers. They'd more likely use delicious or tasty). Also the peanut sauce too. The peanut sauce was yummy too. (What you wrote made sense, but the change I made sounds more natural)I've had a skewered chicken every once in a while in Japan which but wasn't sweet like it these satays.

I stepped stopped by this restaurant after I checked in at a hotel late in the afternoon. I was walking around near the hotel, then when I was attracted by a savory smell and the nice atmosphere of the restaurant.

I highly recommend to have having Satay at the al fresco dining Al Fresco Dining (Is this the restaurant's name? If it is its name, it needs to be capitalized.) when you'll visit in if you visit Singapore.

I've never heard of satay before, so I had to google it. I have no idea whether or not it's satays or satay. Sorry! :(
