nice to still meet up with Shirley and Tracy for dessert one year later (:
i think this one was pretty good, quite a selection on one plate. lighting was pretty dim, and i only bought my phone camera. iPhone is pretty good in dim light, but there's a fine line between phone photo and camera quality. i'm sure Shirley will post up her photos.
at the bar side of the restaurant. they had pineapple lights!
L'Agneau | Harissa Braised Lamb Shank | Charred Eggplant Puree, Couscous, Yogurt, Capsciums-$38, pommel frites-$12
different angles, not sure which one to delete...
yes, the lamb shank was on the small side, a lot smaller than the one at Eyeball, but it's expected for places at the rocks/this type of restaurant. it was very soft and definitely fell off the bone, and not just sauce flavoured with salt. chips were alright, some were a bit burnt...
wasn't planning to eat a lot, since i get full easily these days as well...i like this restaurant since they allow sharing. when you go to hatted restaurants/tourist places like the rocks, some say you have to order a meal each/no sharing...also, i saw someone take away eclairs, so i assume take away is allowed.
Triple Choc Fantasy Tart, Earl Grey & Rose Eclair, Mango Passion & Coconut Entremet, Exploding Black Forest with glass of Yalumba Dessert Wine-$20
artificial light
love edible glitter on food!
the "crack" on the chocolate wasn't as distinct, but it was no too sweet. reminded me of last year's chocolate part of the dessert. good balance of acidity inside with some lemony thing i believe.
inside-ish of eclair
couldn't really taste the rose, but the earl grey flavour was definitely there. haven't had a proper eclair in so long. possibly my favourite out of them. yum (:
not sure how they got mangoes, since they're not in season yet and they didn't taste sweet like if they came out of a can. the coconut was part of the cream, making this cake/entremet really easy to cut through.
cherry (:
ended the dessert with this. not too sweet liquid inside which did taste like black forest flavour, and dark chocolate aftertaste.
Your iPhone does the photos really well!
