This new restaurant featuring a fusion of Thai and Western cuisine hit Tai Po several weeks ago, and since then the line waiting outside it has barely wavered. (My family waited for as long as 45 minutes before being seated...) The restaurant itself was decorated in a cozy, almost cafe-like style, a.k.a. it's kinda small, and that probably explains why the queue trickled by so slowly. ANYWAY, the food. (i don't remember the exact names of the dishes.. my bad D: ) The dressing is more on the swee

The dressing is more on the sweet side and I think it compliments the squid and vegetables well. The squid was aromatic and savory, a nice contrast against the sweet salad.
First off, the pomelo salad with deep fried calamari (金柚沙律配香酥魷魚). The salad was served in this cute little mason jar, pretty cute haha Next up, the appetizer -pork with glutinous rice (豬頸肉糯米飯). The pork was roasted to a decent amount of crispiness, and although I didn't try the glutinous rice I'm pretty sure it was tasty too.
Entree- spaghetti carbonara (卡邦尼亞意大利麵). I think this is one of the best dishes we ordered. The cream has that rich but not overly thick consistency, and the amount of bacon pieces was just right. It was simple and delicious.
Another dish was the soft-shell crab with plain pasta negra (軟殼蟹墨魚汁意大利麵) Although the crab proportion was pretty generous and the crab itself was done tastily, the entire dish was a bit of a let-down. It was simply some crab on top of plain pasta, with no condiments or sauce. The pasta itself was kind of dry and I could barely taste it. Maybe it's supposed to balance out the strong savory crab meat... :/ i would definitely try other pastas next time, because some of the ones ordered by nearby tables looked really delicious, haha.
And now here comes the Thai fried rice with pork knuckles (豬手泰式抄飯). Again, the meat was good, but the rice was a little bland. But overall it wasn't too bad.
Finally, the dessert! I was so sad that the lime creme brulee was sold out but we tried the raspberry with chocolate mousse (紅桑子朱古力慕思) and mango napolean (芒果拿破崙) The mousse was really creamy although it wasn't my favorite, but the mango napolean was a delight. It was still warm when served, and I love the flaky crusts mixed with silky custard.my mouth was filled with a delicate, buttery aroma
