| Surprisingly Nice
I'm not a dessert/sweets person, so never crossed my mind to have lunch here. However, my friend who tried the pasta at the Paragon outlet urged me to give it a go. Was skeptical but I am glad i gave it a try.
It was a Saturday afternoon and the place was pretty quiet (only 2 other tables were taken)...the air-con on high made the whole restaurant rather cold.
We ordered a tomato crab pasta, marinara pasta, a salad and the strawberry crepe.
I must say they are very generous with the crab serving in both the pasta and the salad, and it tasted very fresh! My friend who is not a tomato sauce fan enjoyed her tomato crab pasta, which was not overly saucy, it was slightly towards a "dry" pasta. My marinara pasta was more saucy, and it was how I liked it.
The salad (sorry i can't remember the exact name) was refreshing and nice. It was a lime-y vinaigrette, with lots of greens and crab.
The strawberry crepe was not overly sweet, I guess the slightly sour strawberry kinda balanced the taste. We were afraid that the ice-cream may be too creamy, but it was not too bad.
Overall, it was a nice lunch, with just nice portions. The only thing was the cold air. |
