Feeling attracted by Swensen's christmas menu, i dropped by there and ordered a "Grilled Turkey Breast and Chestnut Stuffing" as i would like to grab the chance to taste some 'real' turkey instead of the more common processed turkey ham that are should in supermarket all year round. The grilled turkey breast comes with a meat patty on top and drizzled with herb gravy, accompanied with brussel sprouts, carrots, glazed chestnuts and mashed chickpea potato. There was also a serving of cranberry sau
The grilled turkey breast comes with a meat patty on top and drizzled with herb gravy, accompanied with brussel sprouts, carrots, glazed chestnuts and mashed chickpea potato. There was also a serving of cranberry sauce at the side in a small saucer.
Disappointingly, the turkey breast, being the main star of the dish,was really tough, dry and tasteless. Fortunately, the herb gravy and cranberry sauce saves it from its flaw. In contrast, the meat patty was soft and full of flavour. It was grilled golden brown on both side, adding a smoky taste to it. The accompanied brussel sprouts and carrots were tasteless too, without any sauce for them. Nevertheless, the mash potatoes was soft and tasty, while the glazed chestnut (my favourite item in this dish) was really sweet!
Overall, a rather upsetting meal which i won't return for. Maybe other items in the Christmas menu would be better.
