Fine Dining.

Garlic told me that he is bringing Mini v and me for fine dining.
2 thoughts came to me immediate.
- Since when Garlic appreciate fine dining?
- Fine dining can bring Kids??

It was later then i realised that the Fine Dining he is going to bring me is in fact situated at a neighbourhood coffeeshop.

Fine Dining at a neighbourhood coffeeshop????

But its true! Apparently, the people behind this decided to open 3 stalls at different heartland neighbourhood area as to bring fine dining to heartland people!

Eating foie gras and escargots at the coffeeshop? Cool! :D

Anyway, i tagged along with Garlic, his friends and Mini v (lucky girl got to taste all these good food!) and the experience was great!

Food is wonderful, ambience is ok ( very cooling for a coffeeshop concept) and has ample parking.


Mini v : *Acting Atas* So... what is your speciality?



Camwhoring before dinner commence.


Starters: Green Chilli Seafood Chowder.
It has a subtle spicy taste and taste very nice.
I was so eager to drink the soup that i almost forgot to take picture of it! Ha!
Thus the half drunk pic.


Mini v so engrossed with the Psp that she doesn't realise that she is drinking GREEN CHILLI seafood soup. Ha!

Nice fish, flaky and doesn't has a fishy aftertaste.


Vio & Mini V...While waiting for the next dish.....


Fried Salmon Skin! Yumz!
The Crispsy Salmon Skin Salad is good for sharing and before you know it, its all gone!


Monkey Head Mushroom with a tinge of Wasabi Sauce.


The melt in your mouth pan fried foie gras.


Escargots in i dunno what sauce,which i love anyway and slurped up a few anyway. hahahaha!


Smoked Duck Steak with XO fried rice and Salad.
Something to share: I dun eat duck! I cannot stand the taste!
But the presentation for this Smoked Duck look so nice that i couldn't resist and snap a pic.
Ha!
But according to those who ate, the duck is nice and tender. Hmmm....


Loh mee? NO! Its Salmon pasta in some i dunno what sauce again.
Looks normal but taste great! Salmon taste is not overwhleming, pasta of the right texture, not soggy in all those sauce.



These Pan fried Lemongrass Lamb chops are delicious!
The meat is tender and the sauce has a just nice sweet savory taste.


Modern Japanese Food!
Mee Sua with chicken and carrot broth.
Nice!

After the Main course ( in which we are like very very full), its time for desserts!


Chilled Aloe Vera. Nice Sweet refreshing taste!



Mini V: This bowl is mine... dun aim huh...


Sweet Garlic Kaofu feeding the greedy Mini v the same chilled aloe vera that she had in her bowl.


Savour till the last drop.


Finger Lickin' Good!


The chocolate lava cake is a must have for all chocolate lovers.


See the way the chocolate oozes out from the cake?


Nothing left! HA! :D


Finally a group pic with Chef Frankie (he used to be a chef at Tung Lok) who whipped up this wonderful meal for us! Yumz!
(Noti Mini v turned away the moment the pic was taken.... Grrrr....)

And in case you are wondering where is this place:
Cilantro Modern Asia
Blk 28, Jln Bukit Merah, #01-37/38.

Still thinking about the melt in your mouth foie gras and mee sua.... Yumz. :P
