Paradise Inn (01/03/09)

Paradise Inn, a new chain by the Paradise Group of Restaurants. The Funan outlet jus opened recently and West Coast Plaza will also have another outlet in Mar. Unlike its other outlets that serve seafood and 'gourmet' dishes, the menu at Paradise Inn is local traditional and home-made. We ordered Mango Sago, Rock Melon Sago and Barley with Ginko for dessert. However, we were full to the brim and had to 'da bao' the desserts and the Pork Trotter Vermicelli. Overall, food quality and taste were good. It would be better if the food is less salty.













Double-boiled apple with water goby soup - rich in nutrients and healthy. The stock is accompanied with chicken feet and pork ribs, besides its ingredients of fish and apple. The serving is suffient for 4 pax.


Dong Po Pork
- tender and full of collagen
- the meat is tasty from the stewing







Mini wok Tofu
- home-made tofu
- smooth & silky
- the floss added flavor to the tofu






Poached spinach with egg trio
- common dish in China
- the spinach was crunchy and fresh
- poached with chunks of whole garlics






Steamed Cod with spicy bean paste
- fish was fresh
- the crispy pork lard enhanced the taste







Pork trotter vermicelli
- taste is home-cooked
- the trotter meat was tender
- may taste oily for some
- fragrant and yummy
- vermicelli had a QQ feel



Flora tea
- forget-me-not, rose and dried longan
- an excuse to chomp the 'sinful' food that we had
