| another food tasting =D
my second food tasting session with DG. hoongy. tiong bahru gal. ji lian's sister. sihan lee and dawn. at curry favor at novena square.
i have ever tried curry favor. but was only at their flagship at stamford house. wasn't too bad. but somehow i felt that this outlet at novena is better even though it is more inconvenient for me.
i like the atmosphere of the place. although like what tiong bahru gal mentioned. the music was a bit off. jap restaurant with english pop music. not that i mind coz it made me think back on my school days. =) but it was not as crowded and the place was more spacious and brightly lit as compared to the one at stamford house. =D
service was alright. very polite and attentive. =)
we ordered a 3 starters to share. namely the stuffed mushroom (prawn and scallop). beef yaki (tenderloin) and deep fried soft shell crab.
the stuffed mushrooms were actually very good. the prawn and scallop in the mushroom was really fresh and when you cut open/bite into the mushroom you can actually feel the juices oozing out. delicious! =D
the beef yaki was very tender and a bit still undone. my favourite kinda beef! =D
the soft shell crab was ok. nothing fantastic. =)
next were the mains. we ordered different mains. like the ebi (prawn) fry curry. cheese katsu (pork filet) curry. tenderloin beef and mushroom curry. beef curry (tenderloin beef) and hire (pork filet) katsu curry.
took a bite of ji lian's sister's hire (pork filet) katsu curry. not too bad. it was crispy and maintained that way till it ended up in my mouth. =)
tried a bit of tiong bahru gal's ebi (prawn) fry curry. i like the prawn actually. (or rather all seafood =D) the batter was good and the prawn fresh. =)
the tenderloin beef and mushroom curry was my favourite. i think i made the right choice of going for that. =) the beef was like the beef yaki. a bit medium done. tender. juicy. but the mushrooms were a dream in itself. wah! big. succulent. juicy. tender. and full of freshness. i like! =D and imagine it all dripping with homemade-made-from-scratch curry. heavenly! =D
ordered desserts and some drinks too. tiong bahru gal. dawn and si han lee had tea and coffee while ji lian's sister. DG. hoongy and i went for desserts. =D and tiong bahru gal said the coffee was really good. =)
the matcha (green tea) ice cream seemed ok. i don't take green tea. but that was what ji lian's sister had. =)
DG and hoongy had death by chocolate which is somewhat like brownie served with a scoop of ice cream with chocolate chips and chocolate sauce. knowing me. i seldom go near chocolate. but it looks yummy. =D
there are 3 flavours of the mochi ice cream. peach. sesame and cappucino. and guess what? i had the peach one. i like it. chewy with a bit of softness for the outer layer while the insides were hard. =D and the peach frangrace hits you once the mochi lands in front of you. =D
overall i thought it was a good place to go for dinner and to catch up with friends over food. will be back again soon! =D |
