Cappadocia

18 May 2006, Thursday

For those who read my previous entries, you would know I'm an (to put it mildly) ardent supporter of food outlets or to put it more succinctly, a glutton. Anyway, the end of exams and keying in of marks are twin reasons to rejoice... hence our makan trip to Cappadocia in Rall Mall. For those in the know, I think you are likely to be a repeat client who appreciates the quaint decor of the place and the sumptuous Turkish cuisine.

All four of us ordered different dishes... which I can't replicate here because I'm seriously handicapped in foreign languages, and certainly could not rattle off the names as effortlessly as T (or is she just bluffing?). I had this really tasty skewered chicken (without the skewer), set off perfectly by the heavenly olive-drenched rice speckled with dollops of tiny raisins. The meat is salty, but this minor aberration was more than compensated by the rice.... You must really try it!

Of course any meal at the restaurant will be incomplete without dessert.... the first time we came here, the highly recommended tiramisu was already devoured by others. This time round, we ate with a vengeance with not one but two! (you may think it's nothing, but then it costs $7 per miniscule portion...) . Luckily, the price was wholly justified with its enticing appearance and melt-in-your-mouth texture. But the clincher was certainly the taste : the almond-loaded taste of heaven.... haha... indulgent.....
