Imperial Treasure

Roast Duck (7/10)
Kailan (6/10)

The photos of the above are 'beyond resuscitation'. :P

Beancurd (8/10)


Durian Pudding (9/10)

It was my hub who wanted me to order this, despite my (feeble) resistance. But I am glad he made me order this for this is the best I have tasted so far! This dessert is also the reason why I decided to put up this post.


Unknown dessert

I still cannot recall what this red substance is. Whatever it is, it is defnitely no match for my durian pudding! Yumms! :D

Bangkok Jam

I was oh so deprived of Thai food ever since my hub went to Thailand on business trip. He came back feeling so sick of Thai food that he declared he won't be touching Thai food for the longest time.

That was bad news to me. I was kept away from Thai food for like, months? :(

Anyways, came this day when he had a meal not too long before we meet for dinner.

"I'm not hungry"
"So I guess I can opt for whatever I like? Say, Thai food?"
"Yeah"

Without a second word, I scurried to this Thai restaurant in Great world City - Bangkok Jam.



He wasn't hungry, but I knew he wasn't just going to watch me eat. He ordered the following 'side dish'.

Gai Kaw Baiteoy (8/10)
parcels of marinated chicken wrapped in pandanus leaves




The noise he made from unwrapping the pandan leaves caught the attention of a boy on the next table, who later asked to have the same dish. haha!

Gang keow wan kai/pla (9/10)
green curry with chicken, baby eggplants, wild ginger and basil leaves



This dish was fabulous, I tell ya. Having this type of dish makes you feel that the white Jasmine rice on your plate is never enough. After I have finished the rice, I scooped up the gravy and drank as if it was a bowl of soup. :P I kept my fingers crossed that I will not have to run for the toilet in the middle of the show later. >_<

Bangkok Jam's Banana Tempura (7/10)



This banana tempura didn't score as I subconsciously compared it with the sweeter goreng pisangs found in hawker centres. Those are still the best around.

The ice-cream's not bad though.

Service
Warm, friendly and efficient waiters and waitresses

Price
$29.65 (Before using the 50% voucher I had)

Place

We went for the movie "L" after the meal. Slightly disappointed, but why am I not surprised? It's a 'spin-off' afterall.

And no, I didn't have to leave my seat during the show. Thank goodness. :P

Cz'zar

The Japanese restaurant my hub wanted to go to was under renovation. The advertisements for this new restaurant caught our attention. The menu looks good and price are pretty reasonable too.

Type
Singapore Chinese Food! The cover of the menu shows 'Singapore Inspired Cuisine'. Wow. Our very own 'brand'. I look forward to the day when this restaurant expands to other countries and do us Singaporeans proud! :)



Quality

String Beans (8/10)

Cruncheee.. :)



Cz'zars pork chop in special sauce (8/10)

I forgot the full name for this dish, but it was sweet and flavourful.



Beancurd dish (7/10)

Pretty ordinary. I asked my hub if the darker tofu indicated that it is of a different flavour. It turned out that the difference in colour is because the darker one was more burnt than the rest, that's all! LOL.



Glass Jelly (6/10)

We were given 2 glasses of free glass jelly dessert because we presented a certain credit card (can't remember which one though). Glass Jelly was never my favourite, nor cherry, nor aloe vera. I took a few bites of glass jelly but finished up the aloe vera. Thanks to my hub who kept reminding me that aloe vera is good for the face. I can only say that women would do anything that is believed to make themselves prettier. :P



Durian Pudding (9/10)



I was really full by the time I finished the aloe vera. So when my hub wanted to share with me another dessert, I told him I can only take one spoon of it.

There was no stopping after I took my first bite of the durian pudding. It was so smooth and delicious that I ate slightly more than half of it. :P It's not too sweet and you can even taste the durian chunks. My hub cheekily asked, "I thought you only want to have one spoonful?" >_<"

Ambience
Pretty 'class' with red and black as their theme.



Service
üüüüü
Their service was good and the waiters and waitresses were friendly throughout, until it came to billing. We have to wait around 15 minutes for the credit card to be returned.

Price

$$$$$
Slightly above kopitiam's tze char's price.
