Delicious Chocolate Cake Smile May 14, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Desserts and Cakes

The most delicious and unforgettable chocolate cake that I ever had was from Chocolate Origin. Look at how thick the layer of chocolate mousse is as compared to the layer of sponge. This point differentiate Chocolate Origin's cake from the rest of the cake. No need for any fancy designs or decorations yet people will still crave for their chocolate cake. The chocolate just melts in my mouth. Heavenly!

The whole place focus alot on the traditional theme. Furnished with rustic wooden tables and benches with the red lanterns hanging all over, eating here feels like going back a few century.

1/2 assorted meat bao

 
Ordered a 1/2 assorted meat bao which not only taste nice but also look appetizing. The snow white dough bun is split into half and inside each half contains a colourful mix of mushrooms, chinese sausages, prawns, meat and salted egg yolk. It's a nice way of sharing it with the other half without the messiness of tearing a whole bun into half. Moreover, the price is reasonable too. I will definitely be going back to try their other dim sums.

ORTU High Tea Buffet Smile Apr 22, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Multi-Cuisine | Hotel | Restaurant | Sushi/Sashimi | Buffet

I'm really lucky to be one of the ten OpenRicer who got the invitation for the first OpenRice Tasty Untion (ORTU) of 2012. The best part is we got to feast all we can for free and the fact that Plaza Brasserie is an award-winning buffet restaurant makes me look forward to this event even more. This is my first time eating here and when I got there, I was amazed by the posh ambiance and set up of the restaurant. We were brought into a more private dinning area, away from the hustle and bustle of the main buffet area and with soft music playing in the background.
Braised Sea Cucumber with Roast Pork & Mushroom

Braised Sea Cucumber with Roast Pork & Mushroom

 
With such a wide spread of dishes, I really don't know where to start from. Luckily, beforehand, we have followed Karen the MarCom Manager for a short tour. So I started with her favourite and recommended dishes. As they are currently having this Heritage Buffet Feast till 30 April, some of the dishes really are those traditional favourites. Dishes like Braised Sea Cucumber with Roast Pork & Mushroom, Braised Pork Balls with Mui Chye, Soft Shell Crab with Tobiko Mayo. These three dishes are the main highlights! The taste brings back memories of my grandpa's home-cooked meal in the past.
Chicken Shawarma

Chicken Shawarma

 

Another not to be missed dish is their Chicken Shawarma. The smile of this lady chef makes her counter very approachable. This dish is rather a great combinations of the crunchy, fresh veggie and soft, tender meat wrapped up together. Tasty indeed.
Salad

Salad

 
The salad corner is not to be missed too. With so many different kind of bread and dressings to choose from. My favourite here is the potato salad but be cautious to try small bites only as just the salad can make one quite full too.
Hanainese Chicken Rice

Hanainese Chicken Rice

 
Hainanese Chicken Rice is our local delights. The fragrance of the rice with the chicken rice chili, ginger and black sauce is so familiar and so nice.

Desserts

Desserts

 
Don't forget to try their drunken prawn, Japanese Sushi, and the spread of sweet treats available too. The drunken prawn soup is not too overwhelmed with the herbal taste and the Japanese sushi and sashimi are all very fresh. As for the desserts, I guess I needn't elaborate more. Look at the photos, tempting enough?
Carrot Cake

Carrot Cake

 
To end the events, each of us got a slice of their new addition of the dessert lists which is the carrot cake. This carrot cake is extremely moist and full or texture and the cream cheese frosting is yummy. I will definitely plan some of the celebrations at Plaza Brasserie in the near future. Once again, thank you OpenRice and Thank you Plaza Brasserie for this wonderful afternoon of High Tea Buffet! lol

4-Course Vday Set dinner menu Smile Apr 06, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Café | Kids-Friendly

Located along Tanjong Katong Road, this is one cafe that doesn't like to take itself too seriously but trust me, their food is seriously nice. The cafe is cozy and makes one feel very comfortable in with its baby blue and pink theme. The whole wall is filled with framed cartoon figures of Kyra and her random acts of cuteness.

I bought a Valentine's day set menu deal on a famous deal website and these are what is inclusive.

Starter
Cream of Mushroom Soup

Cream of Mushroom Soup

 
Cream of Mushroom Soup with Toasted Garlic bread. Mushroom soup is rich and savoury. Thumbs up.

Appertizer
Soft Shell Crab Creaser Salad

Soft Shell Crab Creaser Salad

 
Soft Shell Crab Creaser Salad. The soft shell crab is a bit too fried. So it's not to my taste and I didn't eat much.

Entree
Roasted Rosemary half Chicken

Roasted Rosemary half Chicken

 
Rosemary half Chicken. Stuffed with the chef's special stuffing, slow baked to a golden brown and served with a mixture of poached vegetable, baked potatoes and brown sauce. This is delicious although I had a hard time cutting the chicken.

Dessert
Baked Choco lava cake

Baked Choco lava cake

 
The yummilicious Chocolate Lava cake with Vanilla Ice Cream and Chocolate Syrup. I had high standard for chocolate lava cakes as I have tasted some really delicious ones and really bad ones too. The most common bad ones are because of the dryness of the cake. This one at With a Pinch of Salt has the right moisture right , with hot chocolate oozing out and the perfect combination of the cold vanilla ice-cream. This dessert really makes me wanted to go back for a second visit.

Overall, this cafe is suitable for all ages and they have been featured on TV programs too. Service wise is great too. Staff were attentive to our requests and also helped us to take photos.

KOI Bubble Tea Smile Mar 25, 2012   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Taiwanese | Bubble Tea/ Tea

I love KOI Milktea at 50% sugar level. It's sweet enough even at 50% and I'm really curious how it would taste like if it's at 100% sugar level! The queue is always very long at KOI but luckily the people there are so innovative and with the help of the advance technology, there's someone taking orders using an iPad so while you are still queuing, you can already start placing orders and pay when you reached the counter. KOI is always always super generous with their pearls. It's like 50% pearls and 50% milk tea as compared to others who only give like 30% pearls. So every sip of the milk tea will give you a big mouthful of the chewy pearls!
