This restaurant is located in an old building which is a bit out of my expectation but it’s cozy inside with a little balcony - should be good for small private party.It’s my first time here with my 2 friends. We ordered 3 lunch sets to share. It’s a 3-course lunch where we can pick our preferred starter, main and dessert.We tried the mushroom toast and seafood soup. The toast was fine - no surprise but the seafood soup did wow me with the ingredients inside. I guess I got like 3 mussels in a bo
It’s my first time here with my 2 friends. We ordered 3 lunch sets to share. It’s a 3-course lunch where we can pick our preferred starter, main and dessert.
We tried the mushroom toast and seafood soup. The toast was fine - no surprise but the seafood soup did wow me with the ingredients inside. I guess I got like 3 mussels in a bowl which I didn’t expect. (FYI, I’m a mussel lover).
For the main, we picked a lamb salad, slow cooked chicken and sea urchin pasta with beef.
Front right: The salad tastes good and the lamb is just well cooked.
Middle left: The chicken was another surprise. It’s so tender and matched perfectly with the berry sauce. The Chinese Choy Sum on the side was creative but just didn’t work out. It really dragged the whole dish a little bit down.
Back right: Lastly, the sea urchins pasta didn’t look good tbh - I expected it in orange rather than white when I saw sea urchins on the menu. To be fair, the menu did mention it’s in cream sauce so nth wrong with the color. We couldn’t find any single piece of sea urchin but we could taste it. It’s just amazing that it tasted way better than it looked.
Overall speaking, all 3 mains were above average in terms of taste. Pretty satisfying but the portion is a bit small so I was not really full by the time we cleared the plates.
Glad that dessert is included in that I still wanna eat. I ordered a pancake for myself and my friends got the green tea puddings. The pancake was not really the fluffy or American style. It’s actually a pancake roll with cream inside - a bit out of my expectation. It tastes just so so but could make me feel the fullness more. The green tea pudding was just fair - better than the so-called pancake.
The whole lunch experience was quite good given the quality of food (except dessert). I’ll probably come back when I have lunch with Central buddies next time.
