Bird Nest Beef Fillet Mignon ($32++)The pan-seared beef tenderloin was served with roasted potato and topped with mixed micro cress and breaded poached egg. The beef was tastefully prepared and marinated. Each mouthful of succulent red meat left us feeling contented and satisfied. The potatoes were flavourful with a hint of rosemary scent. The poached egg was sadly, a let-down. The egg whites were soft and slightly runny – a promising sign of an egg-citing gastronomical experience. However, the yolk proved to be “well done” and was a stark contrast to our initial bite.
BBQ Chicken Pizza ($16++)The pizza gave a rather rustic feel and tasted surprisingly authentic. Topped with BBQ marinated shredded chicken thigh, bell peppers, generous servings of mozzarella cheese and smoky BBQ sauce, this thin crust pizza packs a lot of punch. My only gripe was that it was kind of tough and would be perfect if it were crispier.
Overall, it was a pretty gratifying dining experience prior to our visit to the real deal - Mint Museum of Toys.
