i brought vreniz there because she likes pork and i thot the Chijmes outlet would also haf the pork belly but sadly, like the outlet at The Central, both dun haf!
Vreniz ordered a Crab meat, spinach and egg on hot plate ($14.80)...
this item was just ok. Pretty much like wat it sounds. The crab meat was ok but i found it kinda expensive.
we shared the foie gras on lettuce ($18.50)...
a closer up view....
the portion was pretty ok and Vreniz liked the foie gras instantly.
and in replacement of the pork belly, i ordered the pork cheeks ($12.80)....
its bascially pieces of thinly sliced pork... not tender, kinda dry... very disappointing. i miss the pork belly!
also ordered this triple maguro rice....
comes wif minced tuna and maguro sashimi. Ordered this thinking it would be like waraku's.. i was disappointed yet again. Somehow this one just didnt work on me. The taste was just not there. Strange how its just a simple dish yet it tastes so different.
of coz, we were not full so we end up ordering more.. this foie gras and beef thingy ($30 over)....
its layered wif beef below, wif apple, foie gras n some chips. the beef was chewy, too chewy and all the beef taste was totally overpowered by the sweet brown teriyaki sauce. The foie gras was good though. Price was damn expensive. Not worth it if u ask me.
den we also had a oyster, spinach and bacon ($12.80)...
a close up....
the oysters were not bad. one of the more reasonable orders for today.
Desserts wise, we shared a desserts trio ($10)....
comes with the sesame pudding, green tea ice cream and mango pudding.....
i know the sesame pudding is some signature dessert. its pretty alright in my view. comparatively, i preferred the tofu cheesecake.
the green tea ice cream was also not bad.
the mango pudding i didnt try coz i dun like mango.
overall, i was quite disappointed wif the meal. Having returned to Sun With Moon 3 times hoping to find the pork belly unsuccessfully is such a frustrating feeling. And the menu of the one at Chijmes makes me feel dat theres nothing i really wana order from the menu. As in nothing really interests me... and for the few dat may interest me, its freaking expensive.
