| - FYI I absolutely love fusion food
For dinner I came with my bf and ordered the beef carpaccio, bangkok beef salad, seared chicken breast, second rush, white sangria and purple haze.
Breakdown of my meal:
-the purple haze was so strong! I felt like a wham bam wave of alcohol slam me from behind but the alcoholic in me just kept the juices flowing and my consciousness waning.
-sangria was good as I appreciated that through the sweet/fruitiness I could still taste the white wine, which most sangria drinks elsewhere cannot promise to deliver.
-bangkok beef salad: the beef was seared well, albeit a little too chewy but had good meat flavour. the glass noodles were undercooked and the residual dressing made it too wet and sloppy.
- I usually like beef carpaccio chilled just so it doesn't taste like muck given its pasty texture, but this one was warm so it was mucky. The truffle was very effective in really elevating the aroma and taste of the dish, while the crudo was refreshing without feeling too sour.
-seared chicken breast reminded me of airplane meals given its conservative presentation/combination but the chicken was perfectly cooked to give a consistent texture throughout the entire animal ligament. The orzo was adequately flavored with proportionate sauce placement.
-second rush was really underwhelming given the maple cotton candy, chocolate truffle, cheesecake and sparkle cookie was just plain old cotton candy, truffle, cake and cookie (where was the sparkle?)
Overall: I sat at the outdoor patio on a warm summer night. The seating and design of the wooden "booths" were very well thought out and it contributed to a private yet welcoming layout. My waiter was pretty cute too so, yeah.
