HELLO ARE YOU THE DRIVER OR ARE WE THE DRIVER?
If i had known my way and had the whole time in the world to let you waste by getting lost in Mackenzie area, why would I be taking a cab?
Rico tried to guide him, but the cabbie claimed he was new. So we got so fed up getting lost (and possibly missing our dinner reservation at 7.30pm) that we decided to just drop off and walked our way there.
Poor Jeri was in heels. She was in such a foul mood by the visual harassments from some ah beis that she announced to Rico, "If somebody dares to be funny or whistle at me (Jeri gets wolf-whistles at times), the person is gonna get it from me. And my heels."
Anw, we managed to arrive at Tao's Restaurant (at Paradiz Centre) on the dot, and proceeded in under the warm welcome of the service staff there. When i say warm, it means they are REALLY REALLY warm. But can get quite annoying at times, especially when guests arrive and they greet in unison following a lead voice, or when guests leave and they do the same. Sometimes, the warmth becomes noise. =S
Yup and so Tao's is so smart that they have this 7 course set dinner (easy for guests to make up their mind) at merely $29.80++ per pax, and for most of the courses, we get to choose from an array of variety... Let the pictures take you there, to experience the world of fusion cuisine! =)
-Starter was Cheese Gratin with FREE FLOW of Toast-
(We were so hungry we tucked in without taking the pictures!!!!)

My salad dish, Fruit Salad, consisting of crab meat mayonnaise enveloping various fruits inside. It's like a fusion of japanese and chinese/ western?
Side Dish - Grilled Mushroom
Mushroom Soup
Rico's Main Dish - Grilled (or roasted - can't rmb) ChickenHe ordered this, having full faith that his chicken will be bigger than the fish i ordered (See below)
Jeri's Main Dish - Spicy Stingray! SUPER SPICY. Laykoon will love this. Haaa.My stingray was super big - too much for me to finish and was too spicy!
[When the service staff cleared my plate and realised that it was too spicy for me, they offered to replace with another main dish - VERY GOOD isn't it?
Expect to get totally bowled over by their service.
And yeah, their free flow of rose tea (we thought so?) was very aromatic; but beware of how you hold the cup, as the cup isn't very ergonomic!]
We had the same dessert - Choc Fondue
The amount was sufficiently satisfying without being too nauseating
Ideal for those with sweet tooth! Haaas.
Beverage as the other course in the meal, I ordered Summer Peach, with Peach pieces inside =)
All in all, the dinner at Tao's restaurant was a pretty nice experience! Side by side to Juju (Jap Cuisine wth same concept), we might be finding our way there for an enjoyable Jap meal soon!
And yes, Happy 6th month Darlie Tan! I'm so proud of you and happy for you, for finding such a fantastic ... GF. HAHA. Ok la, joking! =P
