Tao's Resturant @ Paradiz Centre

19th Dec ( Sat) , noon..

My friends celebrated my birthday ( in advance) at Tao's Restuarant @ Paradiz Centre. I was asked where I wanted to celebrate, and I chose Tao's Restaurant.. My very first time eating at Tao's Restaurant...and I should say its pretty value for money for the quality and selection of food/drinks, we got to choose 1 item each out of the 6 categories ( except the starter which is the bacon & mushroom gratin).. Most of the food were quite nice...


















Starters:
 

 ^ Bacon & Mushroom Gratin

^( Gratin is served with nice warm toasted bread)


Salads:
^ Smoked Salmon ( I ordered this, but I think the rest of the salads were better..coz there was nothing special about this)

^ Fruit Salad ( A few us had this.. and I find it quite nice. although its a fruit salad, it was topped with a layer of crab meat)

^ Prawn Roll With Pork Floss.. ( this was quite nice)


Soups:
^ Cream of Mushroom ( this was thick, creamy and very mushroom-ey taste.. nice! definitely not those can type)

^ Double boiled shark fin melon herbal soup ( This soup may not look nice, but its surprisingly not bad.. although I did not find any shark fin, its still a nice and flavourful light soup )

Main Courses:
^ from top ( clockwise): Spicy Stingray ( this was quite a big serving, and the stingray was indeed quite spicy) , marinated lamb cutlet, grilled snapper with japanese sauce, eel served with a small bowl of rice.. The 12 of us like got ordered all the main dishes... and I chose the grilled snapper with japanese sauce.. quite nice, will be better if there was more teriyaki sauce, I also had a bit of the rest, all quite nice.. and their award winning pork ribs was indeed nice, the meat was quite tender and yummy.


Beverages:


















All the ice teas we had were quite refreshing, I also had a sip of all the teas.. the ice teas were served in pots so we can easily shared our teas.. I like the most is ice summer peach tea.. It gave me a summer feel after drinking! ( I think it was chamomile in it) .. The staff said their most popular tea was ice rose apple, it tasted more of rose than apple.. not bad, a light refreshing drink...

Desserts:





I ordered Tiramisu which I find the biscuits/cake in it should be soften.. the creame brulee was smooth and sweetness just right ( not very sweet type)





A big thank you to all my friends who celebrated my birthday with me,.. thank you for the nice treats and special birthday cakes... I enjoyed all your company and had a wonderful day!

  1. "Double boiled shark fin melon herbal soup"

    This is a kind of melon which will turn into 'strands' when cooked that looks like sharkfin ;)

    not that there'll be shark fin in it... hee
