Birthday dinner Smile Jul 09, 2013   (Related Review)

Had my birthday treat at one of my favourite restaurants...

FOOD

 
Tung Lok's Roasted Pork

The "skin" is quite crispy which makes it so appealing. This dish is quite popular and need reservation before coming.

 
Boiled Prawns

The prawns are quite big and fresh. They have a special sauce which tastes great when eaten with the prawns.

 
Pork with fruits

The gravy is abit sour but the pork is quite crispy. Not too bad nevertheless!

 
Fried Golden Mushroom with Kale

I like the fragrance of the fried golden mushroom. Quite crispy and tasty too!

 
Tung Lok's Chili Crab

It was served with the fried buns. The buns were crispy and the chili crab gravy would taste better if more chili was added to it.

 
My birthday cake + Tung Lok's Longevity buns

The longevity buns were actually their custard buns in a different "wrapping".

SERVICE

So I was surprised when the waitress served us the longevity buns together with my birthday cake coupled with a chinese poetry wrote by the chef. Out for so many restaurants I have been, this was the first restaurant that went the extra mile for my birthday celebration, left me with an unforgettable impression. The poetry is mainly a birthday greeting written in chinese poem. The waitresses also sang a birthday song to me personally instead of playing the music on soundtrack. Could feel the sincere wishes coming from them. Kudos to them!

OVERALL

I'd always love Tung Lok's grp of restaurants. They offer great food and service, always portraying a positive side of their reputation and image to the customers. smile

FOOD

 
Unagi Sushi

Big slice of Unagi, fresh and tasty!

 
Ubi Sushi

I love the crispiness of the ubi wrapped in a roll of tiny "egg" and sushi roll

 
Soft-Shell Crab

Very soft and crispy

 
Salmon Sashmi and Teriyaki Chicken

The salmon sashimi is quite fresh and a slice is quite big. As for the teriyaki chicken, it tastes quite normal, and a little salty.

 
Tako-yaki and Fried Toufu

Both taste quite normal and a little salty

 
Shabu Shabu

This is like a steamboat pot, and they will give you the ingredients like mushroom, vegetables, chicken/beef (based on choice), carrot, Toufu. You can even cook salmon sashimi if you are sick of eating it raw!

AMBIENCE

Nested in a quiet industrial area away from the hustle and bustle of city life, this restaurant offers a good place for dining in and catching-up and friends.

PRICE

$42.80++ for a wide range of sashimi, sushi, shabu shabu and other cooked jap food, it's really worth it!

Lunch @ Din Tai Fung OK Jul 06, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Dim Sum


FOOD

 
Pork Dumplings

There is sufficient amount of "soup" in the dumpling that makes it mouth-watering! And the texture of the minced pork is so smooth soft. Awesome!

 
Shredded Pork Fried Rice

I've always love Din Tai Fung's fried rice. Always so fragrant and tasty. Shredded pork taste good and not too hard.

SERVICE

Their service is quite bad. When asked to refill our tea, they took such a long time and pull a long face! No display of professionalism at all!

PRICE
I think the price is quite affordable in a neighborhood shopping centre.

FOOD

 
Egg tarts
Love their egg tarts! It has a crispy and fragrant crust and the egg has a smooth texture.

 
Custard Buns
As a fan of custard bun, I'm very picky in how it actually tastes like. So their custard bun taste good, with the "lava" leaking out from the bun as you take the first bite. But it's a bit too sweet.

 
Fried Carrot Cake with XO sauce
The XO sauces taste rather good and enhances the taste of the carrot cake.

 
Xiao Long Bao
There's a lot of "soup" in it, and the outer skin is thick enough to prevent any leak.

 
Chilled Mango Cream with Pomelo and Sago topped with Ice-cream served in Mini Coconut
My all-time favourite in Tung Lok Signature! Awesome!

 
Indonesian Curry Prawn - $45
The curry is a little oily, but the gravy still taste great. It has a thick curry paste and the fragrance of the curry leaves, and leaves your taste buds burning. Taste great when eaten with the fresh prawns.

 
Fried CodFish with special sauce - $15 per pax
My favourite dish of the day! The CodFish is crispy and is a perfect combination when dipped with the sauce. A unique and awesome creation!

AMBIENCE
I love the ambience in this branch as the restaurant faces Sentosa, and one can sit back and admire the beautiful scenery of Sentosa on a lazy weekend as you savor the food.

PRICE
Though not the finest dinning among the other Tung Lok Group Restaurant, it's still considered high class dining and it's considered pricey.

Ala Carte buffet @ $38.80++ OK Jul 05, 2013

Categories : Chinese | Singaporean Chinese | Restaurant | Seafood

I've always love the furnishing of Tung Lok group of restaurants. Very creative and impressive. Tung Lok Seafood @ Orchard Central is quite special in the sense it has a outdoor "corridor" for customers to admire the beautiful scenery from a height of 12 stories.

Some of the dishes I had for their ala carte buffet @ S$38.80/pax.

 
Crispy Prawns coated with Crushed Biscuits
This is quite a unique dish when I first saw it in the menu. I wonder how biscuits can be associated with fried prawns. However, it's not very nice when served. The prawns are not crispy, and the so-called biscuits were quite hard to chew on.

 
Tung Lok Chilli Crab
The crab meat was not too bad. The amount of chili is just right. Neither too spicy nor too chili-less.

 
Deep-fried Dumpling with sweet and sour sauce
Soft texture wrapped with tasty 韭菜 (leek). I liked the sweet-sour taste of the vinegar in it.

 
Poached Prawns with wine
This dish is quite soft and bland on the stomach. The taste and fragrance of the wine is not that strong though.

 
Braised Beancurd and Minced Meat with Pickled Vegetables in Black Sauce
The black sauce is quite unique but would taste better without the pickled vegetable.

 
Fried Rice
The fried rice was extremely fragrant.

I think ala carte buffet at $38.80 is considered cheap along the streets of Orchard Road. It has total of 43 delicacies to choose from, including desserts.
