| - I came here for dinner to try their new Halloween dinner menu that will be offered until Oct. 31st. The menu is a set course that consists of three appetizers (salad, soup and tacos), main course and dessert. The interior of the restaurant was modern with a wooden theme throughout the place which was beautiful.
Dishes we tried:
Seafood Salad - The salad contained shrimp, octopus, mussels and clams. The vegetables chosen for this dish were crispy and light, which was quite refreshing. One thing to note was that the clams were a bit overpowering since it was naturally more stronger in flavour compared to the octopus and shrimp.
Pumpkin Soup - The soup was very creamy with rich flavours from the pumpkin.
3 in 1 Tacos - We each received a plate that consisted of three different tacos: beef, chicken and pork. The beef taco had a delicious marinade, probably soy sauce based, that was packed with flavour. The chicken taco was the lighter one out of the three. The chicken was very moist and had a sauce that was light and a bit on the sweeter side, which was also very good. The pork taco was definitely my favourite out of the three. The pork marinade reminded me bulgogi (Korean marinated beef) which tasted so good. I liked how they added red cabbage to add texture and balance in flavour. This is a must-have!
Sichuan Style Beef Noodle - I really enjoyed this noodle soup! The broth was rich in flavour, yet light at the same time. The spices and herbs that were used to make this broth reminded me of Vietnamese Pho, which I absolutely love. The noodles were cooked al dente and they soaked up the soup nicely. I liked how they torched the beef for this soup because it added smokiness to the beef which was very tasty.
Beef Fried Rice Teppanyaki - The Beef Fried Rice Teppanyaki didn't really stand out to me. Although the concept was nice, it would have been better if they added more sauce and possibly use the marinated beef from the taco for this dish (that would be great!).
Mango Panna Cotta - The panna cotta was wonderful! It was very silky and light in flavour, and the mango juice added a nice sweetness to it. Inside the panna cotta was a surprising and fun treat which you'll have to find out for yourself!
