Cailing and I went to Club Chinois at Orchard Parade Hotel. Stan and Mad's wedding dinner was catered from them.. it was actually one of the only wedding dinner I had that I felt was nice to eat.
Anyways, the ambience is nice. There were some tables that had chairs with really high backs, creates this really "atas" atmosphere hurhur. Maybe it was early-ish when we arrived at 6:45pm, cos there were like 3-4 waiters that came to pull our chairs out and all that when we came. Anyhoo, good service overall; tea was replenish fast, waiters were very attentive, know the menu well, can give good recommendations and all.
The food! The portions per dish are actually quite small. See for yourself in the photos. But they were really done quite well. There were complimentary appetisers to start - small piece of salmon sashimi and two other things which i can't remember what. Then had ginseng chicken soup; followed by lobster (i think we got it baked with some slightly spicy sauce.. can't remember exactly), then cod with egg white; lamb; wild mushrooms with spinach tofu; rice (kinda fried) with foie gras, and ended off with dessert - Cailing had chocolate mousse thingie which was absolutely fabulous, once u cut into it, the chocolate just oozes out of the thing. hehe; i had apple pie with vanilla icecream. yummy.
Oh ya we had a glass of white wine to share also. I think it was a sauvignon blanc. The cod was really good, and so was the lamb.. done really nicely (want to say done well..but actually from the looks of it.. it's more of like done quite medium rarely? haha); even Cailing who dont usually eat lamb also say it's quite nice. hehe. Of course the rest of the dishes were good too.
So how much was the damage? the bill came up to $200!! haha. but offset by the TL$ then no need pay so much.
ok photos.
