Wild Rocket

Pre-celebrated Mothers' Day @ Wild Rocket.

as usual, we were first served the complimentary bread...



the bread today is much better. its served warm and the taste was stronger... haha.. just better den my previous visit!

we ordered the soup of the day - cream of cauliflower ($8)...



didnt find the soup really impressive. i mean, it was alright but.... well, maybe because its cauliflower. the toppings was rather special thou.. i think its roe.

we also had a pan-seared tuna wild rocket salad ($10.80).....



a closer up view.....



i was telling mum that the wild rocket is the same vege thats used on Papi's pizza (which mum also loves).. the tuna .. well, i've never really had pan-seared tuna before to tell if its done well but i'd say i dun find it particularly nice. Overall, i liked the salad thou coz i like the wild rockets. hehe

for mains, dad ordered a smoked salmon with over-easy eggs on foccacia ($15.50)....



a closer up view....



well, actually initially we didnt realise that its bread so in the end, we kinda ordered another mains for dad and end up sharing this. It was not bad ... reminds me of the eggs benedict. dad liked the eggs... but i dun think i'd order this again. I mean, not because its not good.. just dat they haf better things over here.. haha

the wild rocket burger ($17.80).....



a closer up view.....



and i just had to show u how juicy it is......



need i say more? its my FAVOURITE BURGER! to hear me rave about it, read here.

and for dad, i ordered the crabmeat linguini in chilli tomato sauce ($18.80)....



a closer up view...



after trying a mouth of it, i thot to myself, .... " omg, wat am i getting myself into? " .. haha.. why? coz i already haf enuff things i crave for at wild rocket (the burger and the seafood crustacean oil spaghetti), i dun need another item to get me craving for this place. haha.. yes, i like the crabmeat linguini! the kind of liking thats enuff to make me wana return again for it. The crab meat was generous and the taste was pretty robust.

for mum, i ordered the seafood crustacean oil spaghetti ($20).....



a closer up view....



as always, taste was good, prawns were crunchy. mum said its nice too!

actually by the time we were done, because of the extra smoked salmon foccacia, we were already pretty full. But well, still wana let my parents try their desserts.

I was gonna order their chocolate gateau with ice cream ($13) and the pandan panna cotta but the server kinda recommended the strawberry cheese cake ($9) so we went for the chocolate gateau and we took his suggestion.

the chocolate gateau with ice cream.....



and the oozing out chocolate....



yes, the sinfully good molten chocolate oozes out and combined wif ice cream its truly divine.

and the strawberry cheesecake.....



took me by surprise coz i was kinda expecting it to be like the usual cake form. didnt expect it to be served in a glass like ice cream....



the cheese...



the strawberry and the 'cake'.. or should i call it biscuit?



its really good! especially the biscuit part! imagine the rich and flavourful biscuit, the strawberries and the cheese... the combination was OOooo... actually i'd prefer if the cheese was not as thick but overall it was still wow.

i think the lunch experiences at wild rocket kinda exceeds the dinner experience.
