Tonight I am bringing the family to have the Restaurant Week Dinner which costs $35++ per person. The dining room is decorated traditional look, with a small area selling stuffs such as coffee and clothes.As we are not served ice water, we decide to order some drinks.
Kalamansi Especiale ($10++)Homemade Kalamansi juice with salted prune and diced aloe vera
It tastes quite strong and is quite a wake me up drink.
Lychee Nirvana ($10++)Lychee cooler spiced with fresh ginger with basil seeds
Quite a unique ginger taste drink.
Hibiscus Breeze ($10++)Muddied mint leaves with a dash of hibiscus
It tastes like a colored soda drink.
Homemade Lemongrass Drink ($6++)The drink costs $3++ as part of Restaurant Week promotion. It tastes quite refreshing and strongly of lemongrass.
TRIO OF APPETISER
Kueh Pie Tee (usual $10)Crispy 'Tap Hot" pastry cups filled with shredded sweet turnips, served with crabmeat and accompied with homemade chilli dip
The appetiser tastes crispy and crunchy, although I feel that it is a bit dry.
Ngoh Hiang (usual $14)Crispy homemade five-spiced meat wrappped in soy bean curd skin and deep-fried
The meat roll tastes quite fatty. But topped with the five spice sauce, it is quite delicious.
Classic Penang Otah (usual $14)Steam egg custard with scallop, seasoned with freshly squeezed coconut milk and special blend of herbs and spices
This is a quite unqiue version of otah, which does not taste too spicy but with a strong coconut taste.
SOUP
Hee Peow T'ngFish maw soup with homemade prawn balls, pig tripe and cabbage
The soup is quite light in taste with lots of cabbage.
MAINS
Ayam Buah Keluak (usual $24)Braised chicken with black nut and exotic spices
Although the sauce is thick and creamy, but the chicken tastes a bit dry and tough.
Chien BakPan-seared Kurobuta pork fillet marinated with authentic spices and herbs
The pork tastes not bad, but I feel that it is not tender enough and it is also a bit too fatty.
Udang Gulai TumisTiger prawn served with fragrant Nyoya curry
The curry tastes not bad but Dad feels that the prawns are not very fresh, as the heads drop off easily.
Chap ChyeStir-Fried mixed vegetables
This is a different from the usual, as there is lily bulbs in the dish. I would prefer the dish to have braised slightly longer.
Sambal KangKongSauteed water spinach with spicy sambal chili
It is a delicious dish and does not taste too spicy.
DESSERT
Cardamom Chocolate MousseCardamom infused milk chocolate mousse, pineapple compote and caramel
I have never seem Cardamom before and this is a very interesting dessert for me. It is nicely decorated with a caramel stick on top. Although it looks like normal chocolate mousse, but it tastes strongly of ginger.
Bo Bo Cha Cha (usual $8)As mom does not like chocolate, we decide to change 2 of the desserts to another choice which is Bo Bo Cha Cha. The dessert is served hot and tastes very creamy. Besides the usual yam and sweet potatoes in the dessert, there is also sliced banana in it too.
Total bill for 4 persons is $203.65. Overall the food is not bad and reminds us of homemade cooked food. The place is a bit unstaffed with only 2 staffs serving the food.
