Cookpot of local market FRUITS and VEGETABLES $300
Must try. This has to my favorite dish of the night. By that I mean I would happily eat it every day, if I could. Of course I can't. I am a simple person. I like eating simply. Fruits and veg is good fo me. The flash is too weak on my camera but you can see vaguely the lovely amazing colors. I mean how often do you get such a healthy, colorful dish? Kudos to whoever thought up the arrangement! And imagine the amount of time that went into preparing this dish! The sauce was savory, but the fruit itself is sweet. Mushroom, apples, carrots, yam, some other root veg, might've been a bit of pear too. All in all a very healthy and satisfying dish. I soaked up some of the residual sauce with a bit of bread, shamelessly! Nom nom nom. Crispy LEMON tart, limoncello sorbet $160
Very fresh and cold sorbet, not too icy as in there wasn't a lot of crunch - which is good. Want it to be smoother, like an iced smoothie. The tart itself was...quite tart. I mean the lime. The custard was good. Shell is brittle like a meringue, but the inside is very soft. WILD STRAWBERRY-MASCARPONE contemporary vacherin $160
This dish contains many elements. Textures, temperatures, flavour...'contemporary vacherin' refers to the two blobs of white on topping the middle and left items. Vacherin is a type of cheese; but can also mean 'cake made of meringue'. It was very brittle, not too appelaing to me. A simliar dessert option can be found on the Alain Ducasse St. Regis menu. The tart's crust contains pistachio and almond - it is very delicious. The sorbets were quite bitter, especially the raspberry one. OUR FAVORITE CHEESECAKE, grapefruit-vanilla marmalade $160
The second most impressive dish. The base was delicious - not just crushed digestive biscuits + butter. Not sure what else went in there, I just know it was delicious. The cheesecake, being a steamed cheesecake (first i've ever had!^^), was extremely smooth and dense. There were vanilla pods in the cheesecake as well. You will see some berries undernealth the sorbet. Those were rather sour. Petit fours:
Pistachoi macaron quite good. Soft center and thin shell. Complimentary chocolates - which we packed and brought home
Conclusion:A rather enjoyable meal: nice views, one or two special dishes, and the overall high quality of food. But these expensive places cannot be visited often. It will be some time before I come back again. There are many other places to try.
