Set Dinners @ Sam's noodles

On my previous review I said I would be back for the prawn noodles, however I totally forgot and ordered the dinner for two.
Had I ordered the prawn noodles it probably wouldn’t have been so disappointing.

The set for two costs 188 with another 10% charged on top.

dinner for two

 

The set includes a choice of salad, snack platter, two mains, a choice of rice or drinks.

gado gado

 

Salad:
There was a choice of gado gado and shredded chicken salad, I chose the gado gado as I haven’t tried it before.
Basically it was lettuce, cucumber, tofu, beanshoots, potato with sweet curry sauce.
The curry sauce was spicy.
Overall, I found it quite home-made, anyone could have cut some salad vegetables and added sauce on top.

snack platter

 

Snack platter:
This was totally boring, it had chicken wings, fried pork chop, squid and prawn cake, fried dumplings.
I felt this was so Chinese. Although the portion was big, I felt that it just acted as a filler.
The chicken wings didn’t taste as good as the previous visit.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Mains:
For the mains, the choice was even more boring especially the vegetables, stir fried choi sum with garlic was so Chinese so I didn’t pick that. Same with sweet and sour pork chop, which is probably the same pork chop in the starter but with sweet n sour sauce.

assam chicken

 

buk kut teh

 

In the end chose Assam chicken and Buk Kut Teh.

The assam chicken also looked very amateur as if it was home cooked, it was sweet and spicy, the sauce just tasted exactly like the sauce for the gado gado.
The Buk Kut Teh tasted how it should, however the meat was slightly too tough and dry.

Food choices for Pizza Hut delivery has improved!

I hardly ever order Pizza for delivery, especially Pizza Hut because the delivery menu is limited.

This time I was surprised at the choice and it was so good that I ordered more than I intended to because the starters, pastas and desserts were sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo tempting.

Pizza Duetto $127
I ordered the duetto because you can choose two different pizza's, however one of my choices was the supreme which is not supposed to contain pineapples according to the menu.

Bacon penne with truffle parsley sauce $68
This is a new pasta on the delivery menu, a nice change to spaghetti bolognaise and americana.
The sauce was really nice and strong, and there was chopped up parsley.
I would have liked it if the pasta was softer, but the sauce was nice and cheesy with a strong truffle taste.

Russian salad (shrimp and potato) $32
This was a nice salad that would be a choice for expats because it had mayonnaise dressing and not the weird sweet chinese salad dressings.
The elements in the salad were potatoes, lettuce, purple cabbage, prawns and black olives.

Golden Peach bread pudding $30
When I saw this, I was tempted to order two, and it did turn out to be delicious.
however when you take the lid off, it does not look as good as it tastes and it looks slightly different to your usual bread pudding.
The use of peach was much better than raisins.
The peach and custard sauce in the pudding tasted really nice.
