To start off the evening, we were served with 3 different teas : Elderflower strawberry which was my favourite. It had a more strawberry flavour with very slight tinge of elderflower. To me it made a great thirst quencher. Lychee cucumber was refreshing but I didn't quite like the cucumber taste. Peach passionfruit was more peachy rather than passionfruity. All priced at $5.90 each.
There were a number of fried items during the tasting. First up was the enoki mushroom fries ($7.90). Very crispy. Goes well with any drink. Recommended if you are not a French fries kinda eater.
Onion rings ($6.90) that was a good size. Was not too bad but if one would want to ""get rid" of the oily taste.... best to dip it in chilli sauce.
The mini fish and chips ($8.90) was not so mini. Can be shared between 2 persons. Dory fish battered and fried. Quite good but best eaten when still piping hot.
We had eggs benny ($9.90) for dinner. Eggs poached perfectly and yolk so runny. Hollandaise sauce thick and creamy over ham and a little salad to balance off.
Finally a dish that made wowed us. The spaghetti pesto aglio olio ($10.90). Tossed in herb pesto and chilli padi without any other garnishes, it was simple and yet packed a punch. One can actually request for additional toppings like prawns (with additional charge of $4).
Finally.. dessert time. Apple crumble ($6.90) with short crust pastry. A strong butter taste with chunky apples caramelised perfectly. Served warm.
A chocolate brownie ($6.90) which all of us enjoyed. So chocolaty and not so sweet. But it felt like something was missing. Yes.... probably a dollop of vanilla ice cream!! Have it cold!
Macarons...18 flavors, Spoilt for choice if you love macarons. Going at $2.50 each. I loved the apricot fig flavour best for its not over the top sweetness, its tangyness.
Les Eclairons shaped like a peanut... a cousin of macarons. My favourite was the mango and chocolate flavour for its chocolatyness and citrussy twangy aftertaste.
The hot beverages were the hot white chocolate ($6) which tasted more milky. The hot dark chocolate was not chocolaty enough.
The latte ($5.50) ... coffee beans from Melbourne with a blend of African, Asian and Central American. Quite light. I prefer my coffee with more oomph.
My friends had Yona Yona Beer from Nagano. Unfortunately I am not a beer drinker, therefore I am not able to give my comments on this. But from what I gathered from fellow foodies, they liked the beer for its medium and caramelly peachy taste.
Service was excellent and attentive. Wonderful ambience. Friendly staff. A good place to chill or do your work in peace. Prices are so affordable as well.
