AFTER SO LONG!

Havent been writing reviews for very long but I simply have to write one for Tao's because I had such a great time there!

We called beforehand to reserve places for 8. I guess the restaurant must have foreseen that we will be pretty noisy and hence asked to push our reservation time later but giving us the VIP room instead. I appreciated this much! Because not so long ago, while we were having dinner at din tai fung, we got complained for being too noisy and that totally spoiled our moods.

We had a seven course meal for $35. There are various choices for the 7 items as well! These are what I had.

1.) Bread + bacon and mushroom gratin. Nice!
2.) Salad: prawn roll with prok floss. Very nice! they had mango slices in it as well.
3.) Grilled Mushroom. We all cleared our plates.
4.) Sorbet. The manager said to clear the taste so that we can enjoy our main course.
5.) Main entree: Spicy Stingray. I didn't find it ordinary, rather spicy though!
6.) Dessert: Creme brulee. Nice and flavourful! and not too sweet either.
7.) Beverage: Tropical Grapefruit. Tastewise is alright, but it looks kind of unappetising.

What impresses me most was the service. This is one restaurant that really makes you feel at home! The waiters who attended to us were really friendly and fun, strking up conversations with us, but are not too intrusive. Their close relationship with each other also made kept us entertained.

And you can tell they really love their work! I think this is what true service should be like. I will be bringing more friends there definitely!
