Sunday night... The time for a meal outside with the family. After shopping in taikoo we decided to pay a visit to one of the family's favorite restaurants: simplylife cafe. The place is famous for it's LONG waiting line, and when I say long I MEAN long, because it took us more than 40mins to get a seat. The menu has changed slightly since the last time we came. The dinner sets come with soup/salad, bread and a drink. Tonight's soup was mushroom soup, salad was green apple salad and the drink wa
The menu has changed slightly since the last time we came. The dinner sets come with soup/salad, bread and a drink. Tonight's soup was mushroom soup, salad was green apple salad and the drink was pomelo oolong ice tea.
The bread was served pretty quickly after we ordered.
Bread: 4/10
Taste ok with nice chewy interior, but the crust was WAYYYY too hard. Gave us all a hard time chewing it, and nearly broke our teeth (not exaggerating)
Mushroom soup: 8/10
Really enjoyed the soup. The temperature was nice a hot and the mushrooms were so flavorful. I liked how it is not very creamy to emphasis the actual "truffle" taste. The mushrooms were also really coarsest chopped and you can just slightly chew it.
Crab meat salad with peanut dressing: 7/10
Two different flavors combined in one... Might sound a bit odd but actually taste pretty good. The crabmeat was really sweet, but I prefer it to not be in larger pieces so it's easier to eat. There were some tiny shells in it too... But the peanut sauce was very aromatic and they tossed it with the vegetables very generously.
Organic brown rice with spinach, bacon and peas: 7/10
Not the best looking dish... However the spinach was very fresh and the texture of the rice was not too wet or dry. There could be more of a "wow" factor. But taste wise, it is a good and healthy dish.
Organic brown ride with seafood and herb cream sauce: 9/10
This dish was my favourite of all that night. The seafood was packed in the entire dish. Presentation was good and also the herb cream sauce was very tasty. The dish was a bit too heavy but it is balanced out by the small portionSo overall, I really recommend this dish!
Beef hamburger with bacon and cheese: 7/10This burger is perfect for meat lovers because the patty is literally as bigger than a palm. When you bite into the burger, you can literally only eat the meat. And nothing else. So I think the components of the burger can be more balanced... The fries were nothing special and the pickled vegtables balance out the heaviness of the dish. The portion is really big though.
Overall, this was a very nice meal to end the week and also to welcome Monday and the new week... Which is also the last week until the summer holidays!!! I really enjoyed the meal
