Dinner At Barcha, San Francisco

This was from my time in San Francisco in June. One of the places that we had dinner at was Barcha. Mind you, these are the food for two people. We make sure we had dessert to end the meal too. Delicious ending with Turkish Coffee Ice Cream. I am missing the food there right now wish could have some.


 Croquettas

 
Hummus

 Tuna

Shishito peppers, too much and too hot for two people!

Moscow Mule, delish!

 Grilled Chicken, delicious!

Turkish Coffee Ice Cream. So yummy!

Kra Pow, Singapore

We found a new place to satisfy our cravings for Thai food. It's an inexpensive place tucked inside Far East Plaza, called Kra Pow. They certainly have delicious food.

Here are some dishes we had on one visit.

Crispy Thai Wings

Massamam Curry

 Pork Fried Rice

 Spring Rolls

Drunkard Noodle Pork

Red Ruby Dessert

Lunch at Lokkee

We had lunch with these loved ones and family members. 😉 We enjoyed the food although we did not particularly like where we were seated. The fried rice with crab meat was particularly delicious.

Le Chine, Macau

Le Chine is located on 6th floor of the Eiffel tower. We just felt compelled to try, it is the only restaurant in the tower and we just had to experience dining there. They offered French - Chinese fusion dishes. The service was good, some of the food were great, but a couple were not really, including the noodles with lobster down below. . 

Starting the evening with a drink called French Kiss. The restaurant brought us amuse bouche, which unfortunately I can't remember, but it can be seen down below after the drink.It was not explained by the server and when asked, it was still not clear what it was. they were quite nice and cold, it's some sort of sherbet.

Amuse Bouche

Crabmeat tartar

Crispy chicken, it's really crispy and worth the calories.

Braised bean curd

Sea Cucumber

Complimentary matcha cupcakes. (that's my guess of what they were, the serves did not and could not explain what they were)

Pineapple tart tatin with coconut ice cream. Definitely needs more ice cream, a lot more than presented. The balance of the flavor was of because of that.

Beijing Kitchen, Macau

Our first dinner in Macau was in Beijing Kitchen in Grand Hyatt Hotel. We came without reservation, in fact we did not even plan to come to this place for dinner. We wanted to have Beijing duck, but were unable to have it because we did not arrange it ahead of time. On the bright side, we got the opportunity to order other dishes that we never tried before.  The food was good, the service was excellent, we are happy to keep on coming back here.

The first two pictures below are the starters.

The dish below is fried chicken with peanuts and tons of dried chillies.

Braised eggplants

Sea Cucumber with mushroom.

Handmade noodles.

Four Seasons, London

In between "we should try other place" and "we need to have a bit", we ended up at Four Seasons restaurant in Chinatown London. Again. We tried a different branch nearby in Chinatown if that counts at all as a different restaurant that we tried. We had a platter of soy chicken, barbecue pork and roast pork and a bowl of wanton soup and a bowl of rice. Perfect for cold January night.So good.

Ah Loy Thai

We always love to eat Thai food and we constantly look for a good place to have Thai food wherever we are. In November last year, we came across Ah Loy Thai. The reviews on the net, in general were very encouraging and we definitely wanted to try. So we did, and we agree to say that this place is not for us. We are glad that we have tried.

Butter Calamari

Tom Yum Soup

Lemon Grass Chicken Wings

Pad Thai

Busaba Oxford Circus, London

This was the only Busaba trip we had during our last trip to London and we had it at different location. It was our first time dining there and I basically let DH have his favorites, the same dishes we always order when we go to any Thai restaurants.  we had Pad Thai, fried wings and Green Curry Chicken with a bowl of rice. Almost always the same. 

Lunch At Dishoom, Covent Garden

Back to the time when we were in London nearly a month ago. (I can't believe that February is almost over!). We were back at Dishoom. The restaurant offers wonderful Bombay traditional street food and seems to be really busy all the time. 

These are the dishes for the four of us plus Vegetable Samosas that we ordered a little bit later and I forgot take a snap of them.

Dishoom Calamari

Chicken Berry Brittania

Naan

 Chicken Ruby

Dishoom Chicken Tikka
