Adrift

Bunny brought me out for dinner at Adrift....

A nice bar concept place that she's been meaning to come by...

Adrift is on our list of 'To Visit'. Heard quite a bit of nice things of this place.

So we were first served this rice crisp thingy... it looks like those Indian fried crackers...

But it doesn't taste like the Indian fried crackers. It's slightly saltish, rather thin and quite nice to munch. The sauce as well. It's orange in colour, the taste is a little like mayo but not quite. It's not super strong in taste but goes very well with the crisp!

It was so good we polished off everything!

Next up was the tuna and avocado...

This is easily our favourite dish for the night! The avocado that was wrapped in the tuna was of a semi mash like texture and the tuna was so soft, everything just blended really well along with the sesame oil like sauce in the mouth!

The prawn and seaweed...

The prawns were big and succulent! It was served chilled and the sauce was like a vinegarette like kind of sauce, it's very good. By this dish, we were already feeling quite confident abt the food here.

The beef tartare Korea style...

Initially, I was worried it would be very kimchi in taste given the Korean style. Surprisingly, it wasn't! It's pretty good!

Roast pork belly...

The roast pork belly was decent.

The prawns...

It came smelling really good coz it's got the grilled prawns fragrance. The texture was described by the server as lobster like. I liked the texture but the portions were small with the shell still on. I would have liked it if it was chunkier!

Oysters! 

The oysters were ok.

Tenderloin...

The tenderloin was not bad!

Pork chop...

Relatively pink and quite juicy..

A plus for this place would be the service! If you read my blog regularly you would definitely have read about a couple of episodes of restaurants who jeopardize nice, thoughtful surprises. But not Adrift! 

In fact, they exceeded expectations! Bunny requested for the lavender cake I think to be served with candle but while ordering, we decided to go for the chocolate profiteroles. The server caught it immediately served us this...

Yes, happy birthday to me!

And the profiteroles were so good! Some cream with toasted hazelnuts! It's so good!
