The name of the new dish was interesting - Masaman Chicken Curry.
It was served with either a bowl of rice or pancakes.
There was also another recommendation - Thai fish cakes in a set of 5.
We ordered the Masaman Curry with rice and pancakes and ordered the Fish cakes as well. Of course, when the Curry arrived it smelt good and was piping hot.
However, it was just too sweet and didnt taste anything like curry at all.
It was really a letdown. It was just better to just eat the rice on its own.
The pancakes were no better. The pancakes were very flaky and they were just like our local dish, ''Roti Prata''. It was as if these were thinner and cut into triangles.
As the pancakes were flaky, they could not absorb the gravy when dipped into it.
Verdict - it was a bad idea to try the new dish.
The Fish Cake did not impress as well.
It was soft and soggy and too sweetish as well.
Overall I guess we will stick to our menu favourites in future.
No more trying new stuff for us!
