We each took the Aged Prime Rib of Beef which was carved from a slow roasted boneless beef ribeye. Served with crispy potato croquette, broccoli and horseradish au jus. The large slice of beef covered much of the plate and was a nice even pink. So adeptly aged that the beef was full of beefy flavours and remarkably tender. Nothing to find fault on the meat except for the croquette which was soaking in the sauce as it had been tucked underneath the beef.
My velvety Royal Cheesecake with a red raspberry sitting atop a dollop of fresh cream flower. Creamy with a definite tangy taste to it, the single raspberry added a splash of colour as well as acidity to the rich dessert. The biscuit crust below gave it texture and I was hoping to end the dinner with a high note until the next dessert was served.
And then this Dark Chocolate Brownie came and spoil my day. It was basically all meringue with some brownie crumbles thrown in plus no caramel sauce at all. Another one of my colleague on the trip before us said she ordered chocolate brownie from the kids menu and it came in one whole piece. This one was just like a deconstructed brownie except that the brownie wasn’t the main focus.
