ooh i've wanted to try canton recipe house for a super long time already! but cos of their policy of having fixed seatings for dinner, mummy didn't want to try it. but i got the chance to dine there cos of Urban Relish! (: whee! and it was SO worth it (: a really awesome meal!
we started off the meal with a piping bowl of deep fried soon hock fish vegetable soup in hot stone bowl ($38 small). mind you, the 'small' size was a huge enough portion and among the three of us, we probably had at least 3 bowls each of this heart & tummy-warming soup. it was chock full of ingredients and had a wonderful full-bodied flavour.
the fried prawn ball with with pumpkin and salted egg sauce ($20 small) was super duper tasty. just writing about it is making me drool. i wonder why they call it a prawn ball, cos it's not really a ball (as in the fish ball or sotong ball kind) but its a real prawn. it was fried to a light crisp and coated with a generous layer of pumpkin & salted egg sauce which was both sweet and savoury, complementing each other beautifully.
the kailan with mei cai ($18) was probably the least outstanding of all the dishes. not very interesting to talk about :P
lastly, we had the ginger fried rice ($12 small). i was intrigued by this dish the moment i saw it on the menu! it was really a pleasant surprise! normally what i love is garlic rice, so this was a twist to the dish which i loved. it was wonderfully infused with the aroma of ginger and it felt so healthy! haha.
all the dishes here were really quite outstanding and i can't wait to try out more of them! (:
