Hellooo! I’m back from yet another camp! (: Haha. And I met D and V for lunch today at a rather new restaurant called Mad for Garlic! (: I’m one who can go gaga over garlic (see this post!) so i couldn’t wait to check out this place.
This was a look i completely did not expect from Mad for Garlic! Firstly, it was VERY difficult to find. My friends and I walked for maybe…half and hour (?) before we could find it. If you know where Harry’s bar in Suntec is, head towards that area, and you’ll be able to find Mad for Garlic (: It’s hidden in a pretty obscure corner of the shopping mall. The appearance of MfG was also pretty surprising as it looked like some sort of bar with all the bottles of wine, and the entrance looked dark and forbidding. But it was brightly inside thanks to the large windows which we sat next to (:
Everything in MfG comes with…no prizes for guessing, GARLIC! x) we tried out two of their chef’s recommended dishes:
The garlic snowing pizza ($18.90) was a wonderful garlic-y pizza topped with shrimp and pineapple dice. There were two kinds of garlic in it - the fried crispy garlic and grilled garlic. OOH i was in garlic heaven! absolutely AWESOME! :D for some reason, all the articles i’ve read about MfG state that the restaurant boasts of its smell-less garlic (supposedly for anti-garlic people, but i wonder why they would even go there?!) but to my delight, the garlic AROMA was present in every dish (: the pizza was crisply fried, a deviation from the typical pan-fried pizza. and the little white fillings on top? it’s CHEESE shavings! and the waitress used a really cute dispenser to sprinkle it on the pizza. yummy!
The lobster pasta ($19.90) was a garlic cream sauce pasta with lobster meat and fish roe. The cream sauce was not too milky which was much more palatable for me as i usually develop an aversion to cream pasta after eating it for awhile. it was good that the three of us shared two dishes, which made the meal much easier to eat, and also more appetizing (: the fish roe was delightful as i always love the feeling of the roe bursting in my mouth (: the lobster was soft and went with the garlic perfectly.
The satisfied smiles on D’s and my face after our meal says it all (:
