Red & White Wine
Overall, I like the soup Pumpkin Veloute. The Pumpkin taste good and the added shredded Parmesan makes the soup to taste even better. For starter, Hokkaido Scallop & Smoked Duck from the Christmas Menu is definitely the winner. For the main, Seared Line-caught Barramundi and Black Angus Medley will be my choice. For chicken liver lovers, you will need to choose the Turkey Roulade. Come to the Dessert, I’m more towards to Chocolate Cremeux if compare to Green Tea Cremeux.
Too bad the food from the menu is fixed. It will be good if I can mix and match the food I want to make my own menu. Of course, in that case, the price will be changed according to the food you choose.
