Carbonara - $15.50

Its awesome bacon carbonara, thickened with egg and cheese, topped off with some garnishing, has a great taste of the creamy and cheesy sauce. The sauce is well-balanced such that one do not feels sick of eating the dish after some time. However, it's abit plain as it there were not much ingredients in it. Chocolate Amer - $6.90

A perfect desert to end the dinner, I tried their Chocolate Amer, which has many layers of chocolate and mousse. It tastes very sweet, and has too much chocolate such that one gets too sick of the desert.

I love this outlet at Paragon as it's located at one small corner of the shopping centre and it's not known to many. As such, there are only a few patrons at the cafe, and it has a nice and quiet ambience for dinner.

Chocolate Tart - $6.80

I like the rich chocolate filling on top of the crispy crust. Very chocolaty, and a little too sweet. Dark Chocolate Truffles - $13.50 per 100g

As for the truffles, I like it bitter yet sweet-smelling, a perfect ending for the sweet treats. The size of one truffle is quite small, and I find it a little pricey as it cost like $13.50 for a few cubes of truffles

FOODThis XO sauce noodle is one of their speciality dish. But actually it taste like instant noodles cooked in XO Sauce with ham, fried egg and vegetables as its sides. It taste a little salty too.The siew mai is not that tasty, and it's quite hard.Finally the bo lo bun taste abit better. It has a crispy crust and soft loaf on the inside. Taste good!

SERVICE

Their service are generally acceptable, and they are quite fast in clearing plates.

PRICE

One of the reasons why it's so popular is that their dim sum are cheap and affordable, and its locations are at the center of the city.

So I decided to see how great the dim sum of the newly-opened koufu, and as such, ordered 2 of their siew mai, and a piece of carrot cake..

The carrot cake was quite crispy on the outside, but lack taste seriously. It's quite bland and tasteless inside, and I have to dip it with chilli sauce before I can even finish it.

The siew mai, on the other hand was much worthwhile. It's quite big for a siew mai, and has many ingredients in it, besides meat, which makes it quite tasty. A good choice for a short tea- break if you are looking for one!

Went to try out the new korean cuisine at The Quad besides School of Biological Sciences... I tried their hotplate chicken set. It comes with a bowl of rice, a bowl of soup, 2 side dish - kimchi and fried ikan bilis, The hotplate chicken is well-marinated, and its marinated sauce really sips deeply into the chicken meat, making it very tasty. However, the ikan bilis have a very strong stench (those kind of fishy smell) which refrains me from eating it. The soup is quite bland though.
