Almond Crumb Fillet

Almond Crumb Fillet

 
I got the Almond Crumb Fillet (appx $10.40, after 20% off Opening Promotion). I thought the price could be slightly lower because this is not a filling dish, unless you finish the mashed potato (but anyway, the mashed potato is bland, so I see no point eating it). Could have seasoned more for the mashed potatoes. As for the fillet itself, it's quite interesting. Crispy on the outside and the almond flakes added crunch. However, the accompanying gravy tasted a little bit "fruity", hence I found it weird. Besides that, I like the vegetables a lot, especially the broccoli. It was seasoned with some spices and it was extremely tasty.

Fantastic Thai Food! Smile Mar 14, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Thai | Restaurant

Went to Soi Thai on a Friday afternoon and it was packed! Luckily, my friends and I managed to get a table outdoors.

My friend, Eugenia and I both shared the Mango Salad. If you have a low tolerance for taking spicy food, DO NOT order the mango salad! Halfway through the salad, both of us were struggling to complete the dish because it was extremely spicy! Other than that, this is a pretty refreshing appetiser. I will recommend this if the chef goes easier on the chilli.

Next, we ordered the clear Tom Yum Soup. I thought Tom Yum Soup should looks more "red" but I was wrong! This Tom Yum soup was sour and spicy, it was such a pleasure slupring down the soup! They were generous with the ingredients in the soup too! This was the best dish amongst the rest. Very shiok!

The Pad Thai we ordered tasted ordinary, not very outstanding. Feels like I'm eating a local version of char kway teow.

Eugenia and I got the Pineapple Rice to share. Tastes average too, and it is quite oily. Nothing special about the dish.
What a Spread!

Xiao Long Bao is the Best! Smile Mar 14, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook
Categories : Dim Sum

Mention Din Tai Fung to anyone and they'll know DTF is famous for its Xiao Long Bao, and true enough, DTF lives up to its name.

The XLB are made fresh on site, and are served piping hot. Personally, I like to poke a hole into the XLB, then pour out the soup in it, drink the soup first, and then dip the XLB in vinegar and eat it with the ginger slices provided. The perfect combination! I can have 10 XLB in one seating!

Next, I got the Prawn Dumpling Noodles. Soup was comforting; tastes even better when you put pepper in it. Eat the noodles with the chilli oil on the side for additional spicy kick and dip the dumplings in vinegar. Again, this dish was fantastic. Worth the money!

Comforting Soups! Smile Mar 14, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook

Personally, I like clear soups as compared to creamy soups. Hence, when I saw the Tokyo Chicken Stew, I knew I had to get it. The soup was packed full of ingredients, such as chicken, white radish, carrot, leek, shitake mushroom, enoki mushroom, bamboo shoot, lotus root and celery. I like vegetables a lot, and this soup was a delight! Chicken was tender and ingredients used were fresh. Also, this soup is pretty low in calories as compared to the other soups offered, hence it's a plus point. The bread roll served on the side wasn't to my liking.

Although delicious, I will never pay $7+ for a bowl of soup because that is kind of overpriced in my opinion. The maximum amount I would fork out is $5 for a bowl of soup. I got the soup at $3+ during the International Women's Day promotion, where soups were 1-for-1.
Apologies for the bad lighting.

Affordable 1-for-1 Set Lunch! Smile Mar 14, 2014   
Share on TwitterShare on Facebook

Sun Ray Cafe is a cafe whereby pet owners are allowed to bring their furry friends into the cafe while sipping a cup of cuppa.

They also serve a wide range of mains, sides and desserts!
They were having a 1-for-1 Set Lunch promotion, and my friend and I got the set lunch, which entitles us to 2 Soup of the Day, 2 Main Courses of Our Choice (priced less than $16 in the menu) and 2 non-alcoholic drinks.

Soup of the Day was Cream of Asparagus. The soup was pretty hot when served so be careful not to scald your tongue should you order their soups. Asparagus taste was quite mild, and the soup itself was not exceptionally outstanding. It tasted average.

Moving on to the mains, I got myself the Carbonara. It's a creamy pasta served with crispy bacon and well-serenaded with a raw egg yolk. The thought of eating raw egg yolk gave me chills because getting Salmonellosis isn't very pleasant. However, the carbonara was a delight. I found myself enjoying the dish, although it got cold pretty fast. Bacon wasn't exactly crispy, but the portobello mushrooms in it were juicy and tasty! I liked the portobello mushrooms a lot. Noodles were al dente and there's nothing much to fault on this dish. Even the presentation was stunning! Looking forward to try their other pastas too.

The honey lemon drink was done pretty good! However, my friend told me that her iced lemon tea tasted like peach tea.
