My first encountered with this roselle drink was during my annual vacation with my family in Taiwan.Ever since Roselle Drink was introduced at Din Tai Fung, I will not fail to order this favourite drink to go along with my meal.The Roselle drink served at DTF is very concentrated, therefore I would remind the waitress to serve this drink with another glass of iced water. I would generally take a few sips when served and subsequently add the ice water to dilute the taste. Very refreshing.Recently
Ever since Roselle Drink was introduced at Din Tai Fung, I will not fail to order this favourite drink to go along with my meal.
The Roselle drink served at DTF is very concentrated, therefore I would remind the waitress to serve this drink with another glass of iced water. I would generally take a few sips when served and subsequently add the ice water to dilute the taste. Very refreshing.Recently, I have seen dried roselle buds sold at our local markets and herbal shops. This drink is packed with ingredients believed to lower blood pressue, aid digestion if taken regularly. A specie belonging to the hibiscus family.
The fruit of Roselle plant becomes mature in about six months and that is when it gets beautiful bright red colour.
This drink goes very well with the plate of Prawn and Egg Fried Rice.
Priced: S$3.80 per glass.
Din Tai Fung prawn and egg fried rice dish is still just as good. The standard of preparation this dish is very consistent regardless of whichever outlet you visit.Simple dish with not too many ingredients unlike other fried rice, just fresh prawns and egg omelette pieces with generous amounts of chopped spring onions and some added seasoning creates a plate of yummilicous fried rice.
I believe the restaurant uses japonica white rice ( Japanese rice) which are round and firm.
Priced at S$9.90.
Since I was at the restaurant around 11.30 am before lunch time, the place was quiet for a change. What a difference it makes. I felt so relaxed while enjoying my favourite drink and the fried rice and looking out to the MRT tracks and watching the trains goes by.
Indeed a respite from the hustle and bustle of lunch crowds and shoppers.
