Ramen OK Oct 20, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Japanese | Restaurant | Ramen

 
I tried Keisuke Tokyo at the Oishii Japan Fair, where 3 ramen stalls were set up for free sampling. Keisuke offered shio ramen with hint of blue crab stock - sounded delicious so I went for it. It came with pieces of cha siew and wanton. I didn't really like that there were lots of spring onions in the soup, and it was rather oily and salty, we were very thirsty after finishing the ramen. Guess I'm not a fan of shio ramen, and the broth didn't have crab taste.

Another Reunion OK Oct 18, 2013   (Related Review)

I've tried their cakes on my previous visit. This time, we got their famous waffle with greek yogurt. I liked it as the waffle was fluffy, and the combination of yogurt and fruits was a good alternative to the usual ice cream. Presentation of waffle was great as well. However, it gets soggy really fast.

The lotus root chips here were disappointing, lots of it were charred and not crispy, unlike the ones i've tried at Tanuki. As a fan of lotus root chips I would say skip the ones here.

Truffle tries - portion is very big, good for 4 to share. Nothing to rave about, pretty average and truffle taste not that distinct. Liked their dip but it costs another $2 or $3 to get another serving as it supposedly has truffle in it as well.
 
Spending per head: Approximately $15(Tea)

Cute Halloween Tea Set Smile Oct 18, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Multi-Cuisine | Restaurant

 

 

 
Was glad to know that this TCC outlet is opened 24 hours, and serves all day breakfast. Having tried many of their mains before, I decided to give their breakfast a try. I got the English Muffins - 2 ways; one of it was topped with scrambled eggs, ham and melted cheese, the other is a sweet one, with raisins and mango custard. I liked the crispy muffins, and this sweet and savory combi was great. Price tag of $11.90++ was also reasonable.

The Baby Crayfish Salad ($15.90++) is great, and my mum loved it as well. Generous portions of crayfish, and the slight spiciness in the salad dressing made the whole dish very appetizing. The Almond Creme Brulee Latte ($7.90++) was fragrant and there was a slight almond taste.

Lastly, the cute Halloween Tea Set ($14.90++) that comes with a tea or coffee, available till end October. I loved the presentation of the platter, the scones were good with cream and jam; the chocolate mousse and cookie monster cupcake were very cute, and I liked the pumpkin cheese cake. The savory items are the black ball encasing a scallop, and a beef tart. This cute platter will surely bright up your day.

Bill came up to around $57 for 2.

Best Matcha Parfait? Smile Oct 18, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Japanese | Desserts and Cakes

 

 
Being a fan of green tea desserts I had to try Nana's Green Tea. I got a matcha parfait which has green tea ice cream, red beans, crunchy cornflakes, vanilla ice cream, and green tea jelly at the bottom. Portion is huge so share among 2 or 3 people. It is actually the closest to the matcha parfaits I've tried in Japan; strong matcha taste for the ice cream. I would prefer a chewier jelly to the agar agar-like green tea jelly at the bottom though. Bill amounted to $13+.

Dim Sum OK Oct 18, 2013   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Cantonese/Hong Kong | Dim Sum

 

 

 

 

 

 
I've read about a few unique dim sum dishes at Mouth Restaurant and so specially made a trip there to try them. They have a tea time promo from 3 to 5pm, 30% off dim sum; but the colouful har gao, squid ink bun and liu sha bao are all not included in the promo.

We loved the XO sauce that came with the colouful har gao ($9.80), the skin made from sweet potato, squid ink, pumpkin, carrot, spinach, if I'm not wrong. They actually taste rather similar but it's quite attractive with it's different colours. Squid Ink Char Siew Bao ($5++) is not available for dinner (their other dim sums are available whole day will 7.45pm); it's really normal char siew bao, just that perhaps the bun is a little fluffier than the normal ones.

Had to try their famous liu sha bao ($5.40) which is baked instead of a steamed bun; didn't like that the filling was very oily, and I would prefer steamed buns as the salted egg custard is already very overwhelming and oily, and the baked bun is buttery as well, a plain bun would be better.

Was disappointed that they didn't have the dessert combination I saw on pictures (perhaps only at the other outlet) that came with durian mochi (?). I nevertheless ordered the purple sweet potato puree to try. It was cold and grainy, a good refreshing dessert, but quite filling, so it's better to share.

Bill came up to $40 for 2.
