Get ready to
drool the sumptuous long list of dishes for the promotion…
DIM SUM
Dim sum connoisseurs
will be pleased with the selection of mouth-watering morsels. It is indeed a
lovely way to kick start the meal with an assorted range of snacks and buns. I
was particularly impressed with the Chicken
Siew Mai for its juicy and bouncy texture while the Steamed Boneless Chicken Wings with Spicy Black Bean Sauce is
simply addictive. Another delectable dim sum of Deep Fried Prawn Dumplings with Wasabi Mayonnaise and Fried Crispy Bean Curd Rolls with Prawns
and Cheddar Cheese was well executed to a tee!
More dim sum
awaits from fluffy traditional BBQ
Chicken Buns, Steamed Marinated Chicken Feet with Three Varieties Sauce and Wok
Fried Radish Cake with Supreme Chili Sauce.
Since Tao Cuisine
is pork free, I am impressed with the dim sum as the textures and flavors are
really beautifully executed using chicken and seafood.
SOUP
With six choices
of soups available, the menu is obviously well thought off to cater to the
diners. There is a daily soup of the day together with classics and nutritious
broth to nurture one’s appetite before the main courses. The other five choices
of soups are Braised Hot and Sour Soup
served with Wantan, Braised Enoki Mushrooms, Crabmeat and Diced Tomato in Sweet
Corn Broth, Double-Boiled Sea Cucumber with Cordyceps Flower and Wolfberry
Soup, Boiled Fish Ball with Seaweed Soup and Double-Boiled Shitake and Bai Lin
Mushroom with Vegetable Soup.
My personal
favorites are the Braised Hot and Sour
Soup served with Wantan for its intense sour and spicy notes and Crabmeat and Diced Tomato in Sweet Corn
Broth for its gentle and sweet flavors. Double-Boiled Sea Cucumber with Cordyceps Flower and Wolfberry Soup
will also warm the hearts of many with its nutritious value so be sure to savor
this!
MAIN COURSE
Main course is
endless! Choose from some of the main course listed in the menu like Deep Fried Marinated Chicken Wings with
Oolong Tea Leaf, Deep Fried Chicken Fillet with Pineapple in Sweet and Sour
Sauce, Slow Cooked Beef with Yam, Assorted Seafood Stew, Poached Lamb Fillet in
Bak Kut Teh Style and more. The Poached Lamb Fillet in Bak Kut Teh Style is
unique and the herbal broth is really nicely balance with sweetness and lots of
herb flavors.
Chef Wong and
team offers a wide range of preparation for daily ingredients featured on the
market cart. Just choose your choice of seafood, meat and organic vegetables
and mushrooms and Chef Wong will recommend methods of preparation to cater to
your fancy. There will even be some live actions going on nearby by the kitchen
team!
That evening, we
savored sumptuous Deep Fried Oysters
with Mango Puree, Barbeque Chicken Wings, Lamb Rack in Mongolian Sauce, Crispy
Chicken in Fruit Salsa and a very unique Yau Mak with Salted Fish and Citrus Sauce. The oysters were
exceptionally crispy and soft all-in-one and laced with a sweet creamy mango
puree. Interesting combination and the flavors of the oysters paired really
well with the sweet puree. Another crowd favorite that night was the tender
juicy lamb rack dressed in a spicy piquant Mongolian sauce. It was so good, we
made sure to clean up the rib and juices. The chicken wings are also well
marinated, oozing with a smoky fragrant aroma while the vegetable with the
salty citrus sauce is truly a delicious surprise on the taste bud.
Be
adventurous and ask for the restaurant’s specialty for your ingredient of
choice!
RICE & NOODLE
Though choices
are limited here, diners certainly won’t mind as there are plenty of other dishes
to fill one up! Fried Fragrant Diced
Chicken Meat Rice with Black Sesame Powder, Braised Japanese Udon Noodles with
Chicken Meat in Hokkien Style and Stir-Fried Flat Noodles with Beef Slices and
Bean Sprout is simply present to those who really cannot do without the
basic staple of rice and noodles.

Creamy Milk Pudding Served with Passion Fruit Dressing, Poached Black Sesame
Glutinous Dumplings in Warm Soya Bean, Chinese Pancake with Lotus Paste, Deep
