Western - Corduroy & Finch

I went to corduroy...



Was pretty early and i chose to sit downstairs today...



For starters, i had this mediterranean platter for 1...



Was kinda surprised when it came... din realise that there was so many items. Was actually deciding between this and the foie gras but the server recommended this because he said there's abit of everything.. indeed! haha..

A closer up view of the items....



and they also brought me these 2 other items...



on the left its some onion item which was rather nice and on the right is bread and butter.. to be honest, though im not much of a bread and butter person (even when i do take bread and butter, i usually would add sugar.. but today i din), the bread was quite nice. Not to the extent of yummilious but it was warm and i duno how to put it .. just nice.

Honestly, by the time i finished the starters, i was already very full. haha..

My mains came after that... i couldnt quite decide what to haf so i got the server to recommend as well. He recommended the catch of the day.. its seabass wif lobster sauce....



He said this is not an everyday thing so i took his recommendation. It was really not bad. The lobster sauce taste was strong.. and the fish was ok.. love the mashed potato below and even the corn.. the corn had its own sweet taste plus it totally took in the taste of the dish.. nice!

Although i was already very full and i knowingly knew dat we're gonna order desserts later (hee.. how can i not order the apple crumble??), i still went on to order an vodka vanilla milk shake!



haha.. the drink was really good!

we had the dessert sampler for 2! The chef brought the pastry out to us....



this is our sampler for today...



another view...



we kinda requested for them to include the apple crumble in our sampler.. its so good! We did haf a couple of repeated items dat we had the last time.. like the passionfruit cake, the chocolate cake and the strawberry cheesecake.

The newer items included the almond creme brulee.. but i dun like it simply coz i dun like almond.

The strawberry tiramisu was nice! It came wif this biscuit on top dats SO GOOD!

Another one is some duno coffee or hazelnut moose wif pineapple something. Thot dat was ok.

I went and bought the cigarette chocolate from the counter! $2.80 per box! I bought 3!



See, the chocolates are rolled in the form of ciggies...
