Tim Palace @ SAFRA Toa Payoh

20 March 2013


We got the NS vouchers and decide to use it at Tim Palace.

Looks big and impressive. Menu looks impressive too.


This dish is not too bad.


Dong-po rou - the pork was not soft at all.


This was really laughable. The rolled sliced pork with some veg was so small, like the size of my pinkie and the sliced pork was dry . And that sauce was so salty.
It looked like some haphazard slicing of the pork rolled with some haphazard slicing of the veg being tried to look like some fine cuisine but unfortunately the taste wasn't that fine.


And the worst dish of all. Duck meat with sliced mangoes, spring onions toss with sesame seeds. Think there were cucumber slices too.
The duck meat just do not go with the mangoes and that plum sauce - don't know what kind of plum sauce that was. 
On the whole, the ingredients in this dish just do not gel together. 
I would even say, it tasted horrid.

The prices in this restaurant are on the high side and thus, would expect better quality of food.

Luckily, we didn't have to pay for this meal and used the NS vouchers, otherwise we would feel even more grump.

Maybe the cook is not having a great day that day, who knows. But one hopes that this is not the usual standard.

For sure we won't be going back.
