But one's hunt for good and great food continueS!
Firstly a pic from a korean BBQ place @ Excelsior hotel... great food, simple but value for money. Well, if you have Amex anyway, 30% d/c on the dinner buffet which is cooked on this, grill + soup pot. Beef Chicken Pork Prawns and vegetables mushrooms and other goodies all for 19.80 (aft 30% d/c). The overall quality of the buffet is great, even more so @ the price after d/c. However the prawns, being kept in a metal container in the open, was notably not as fresh halfway thru the dinner.
Moving on to another day, dinner @ NYDC (holland V) with mum n O!
My choice of 'When pigs fly'which is spaghetti al dente with German sausages and grilled vegetables. It is SURPRISINGLY good. As in, i don't normally expect more than a certain standard but the sausages w/ the tangy homemade spaghetti sauce was really great and the grilled veggies really added a favorable contrast to the meat. Excellent.
O's choice of baked pasta aka 'The 3 Amigos' w/ extra pineapple. (normally not added)
The choice of adding the pineapples was a GREAT one. Now that's not just smoke cause w/o it, it would have been like a masterful portrait less an arm or leg when it shouldn't. Highlight of the dish would have to be the meatballs embedded into the pasta coupled with cheese ham and another unknown meat. Ok not unknown, just unremembered.
I still think my choice of a main was better though haha.
And finally down to my V-Day dessert.
In case you are wondering what that is, it is... an edible flower. Wahaha.
Made of :
- Mandarin orange slices
- Vanilla Swirl ice-cream
- Fresh apple pulp
- Lots of love.
= Sweetness beyond description. Awww.
In the next post i'll come down to the 107 dollar V-Day dinner which isn't at all overpriced ;)
