Having a festive lunch at House of Joy has become a tradition in my family and this year of course remained the same. We made a reservation two weeks ago for a big family gathering. I would review my own food in this review despite we ordered almost all the items in the menu.Festive lunch menu didn't draw our attention while we all focused on ordered from their lunch sets. I got their spaghetti with pan fried tuna steak in pesto cream sauce. Each set includes a side salad, a piece of house bread
Festive lunch menu didn't draw our attention while we all focused on ordered from their lunch sets. I got their spaghetti with pan fried tuna steak in pesto cream sauce.
Each set includes a side salad, a piece of house bread and a bowl of daily soup. As always, I wish their house bread can be serving in a basket or in a bigger piece. Their house bread is different every time and this time was a flax seeded base. Tasty, seedy and with a crispy crust. Absolutely amazing as always. Just too small to serve with a bowl of hot soup. Today's soup was cream of mushroom. Soup was creamy and silky smooth. Preferably with some mushroom chunks for nibbles and textures. Love the drizzled of cream for extra creaminess. Salad was a bit bland. Only taste of the salad veggies and radish. Quinoa topped was too little that couldn't taste of anything but just crunch.
Here it came to the main, tuna steak pieces were pretty generously given. 7 pieces of tuna steak were served. Well cooked. Slight seared the tuna crust for some savouriness while keeping the freshness and rawness of the tuna center. Spaghetti was cooked perfectly to al dante while well coated with the pesto cream sauce. Pesto cream sauce was pretty heavy that feeling a bit too much when nearly finishing the dish. Appreciate if more sautéed cherry tomatoes were served for extra acidity balancing the heaviness or cracking some good black peppers/ sprinkling some chilli flakes for some extra kick. Anyway not bad.
Overall, it was a decent dining experience as usual. Quality of food and service were provided while appreciate they allow sitting in for a long chill.
