The mushroom soup was too salty and not thick enough. This was a let-down. It did not have the aroma of mushrooms but tasted like Campbell meets Marmite.
The baked potato soup looks really appetizing. It looks like a baked potato!
It even tastes like baked potato in puree form, except they do have solid potato cubes in it. Think baked potato drowning in baked potato puree. It's not bad, but I found it a tad too jelat.
Shally had the Stuart Steak Soup. It is nothing to look at and tastes like salty beef stew. Shally found it decent but I think its too salty for a soup.
This is my favourite Honey Mustard Salad, chicken breast, diced eggs & tomato, croutons, orange slices on fresh lettuce. It's a big salad, definitely not starter size.
The honey mustard's flawless. It's sweet and tangy, the way it should be. It dressed the salad wondrously, any parchness gone in a flash with the miracle balm. The chicken was a bit dry but the honey mustard made it all better. I particularly liked the orange bits that were served. They were an invigorating touch. The crisp juicy sweetness complemented the fresh lettuce perfectly. I just wish they were more generous with the amount they gave. Two measly slices are hardly enough.
I wish I could eat it as a main. It's so light and crispy, bountiful in flavour and tastes so good it should be sinful. What glorious greasy goodness!The steak was very well-done. Not over-cooked well-done, but excellently executed well-done. It had that carnivorous thing down pat. The flesh was astoundingly marbled and tender, so soft and chewy and sapid. A sensational piece of meat.
The Top Sirloin & Salmon Combo comprised of a slab of steak and a portion of salmon, both proper meals in themselves. The steak was good, as above, but was less marbled. But of course, how can you compare a top sirloin to a nice fatty oleaginous ribeye cut? The salmon however was overcooked. Nothing worse than an overcooked piece of fish. It was dry, even though salmon's an oily fish. It was not fresh and the fishy odour was overwhelming. It was bad.
Shally had the Rib Sticking Baby Pork Ribs which was so bad. It was dry and tasted like turkey with generic barbeque sauce. The meat did not fall off the bone, the way it's supposed to be. I think these are the WORST ribs I have had. I don't know if this was a bad night, but it was definitely bad. You can get better ribs from Cafe Cartel.
The Pan Fried Black Cod was a lot better than its salmon counterpart. It looks a whole lot better too. It's light, clean-tasting and very tender. It's not rave-material but it's decent.
