=Iberico Pork Jowl=
The iberico pork jowl was well-marinated, first come to taste was that smoky bbq and sesame flavour, truly enhanced the pork jowl itself.
The pork jowl was firm and juicy, a little crispy (those edge parts) on the outside and chewy in its entirety (including the fats).
Frankly, not a fan of fatty meat, and closed to 1/3 of the pork jowl was fatty portion. However, to my surprise, the fatty portion was pretty acceptable, it was chewy instead of what was expected (mushy/ nua), it was like just part of the lean meat, quite firm, not bad at all.
Having said the above, eating the pork jowl itself could be a little greasy. Fret not, the fresh lettuce and pickled veg really ease the greasiness greatly!
On top of that, the mustard seeds, chillis and most importantly, WOS’ very own Korean style fermented spicy bean paste (like ssamjung paste with red and green chilli bits) really bring a kick out of this dish and making one feels like continue eating it after the first bite.
Noted that it was classified under the mains section, find it a little too heavy for one to eat it as a main, would suggest this to be shared like an appetiser instead.
Price: $24.50 before svc charge & GST
=Soufflé Pancake=
How can one missed out dessert to complete the meal right or not?
Got their signature soufflé pancake for sharing and think it deserves the signature title!
Again, not a fan of too-sweet stuff and nah-that-whipped-cream, but for this, got impressed again!
There were like 3 large pieces of soufflé pancakes, each fluffy and moist, absent of that eggy smell, not too sweet (probably like 30% sugar level for ur bbt, guess the sweetness came from the icing sugar on top) and massive whipped cream I tell you~
While it was like a pool of whipped cream, it was light and not at all greasy, it did not make one feel surfeited (jelak) even after eating more than half of this dish!
Moreover, it was complemented with muesli, rolled oats, sunflower seeds, almond slices, grapes, blueberries, oranges, strawberries (basically those you can see from the pic), considered quite healthy and generous portion which satisfies one, quite worth the calories and good for sharing!
Wouldn’t mind coming back for their soufflé pancake really~
Price: $20.50 excl. svc charge & GST
=Ginseng Smoothie=
Tried their recommended caffeine free ginseng smoothie (contains a whole ginseng!).
Was told that it was made with real, freshly picked ginseng, and there are many health benefits to take note of~
Like it has anti-inflammatory effects, boots immunity, improves lung health, reduces blood sugar level, reduces stress & improves mood, boost brain function, supports weight loss, prevents cancer and treats sexual dysfunction.
Was expecting the beverage to be bitter, and pungent like the usual ginseng candy, but this was not~
It was not as bitter as expected, and it was quite subtle in terms of smell. Probably because it was blended with ice, the ginseng juice was diluted a little, and there was a sweet note to the drink, making it easy for one to swallow/ accept.
Quite like the ginseng bits, it gives the beverage a little more texture and feel somewhat healthy when chew on them (subconsciously or what).
Find this ginseng smoothie still lacking of something, if only the body of the drink could be enhanced (like making it more gao with milk or what not), and I guess it will be perfect...
Would think that this is an acquired taste, but since that there are so many health benefits, and given the price (for a whole ginseng beverage), quite a steal indeed!
Just a note, they uses glass straw, kudos to the effort to cut down carbon footprint! Let’s be environmental friendly too!
Price: $13 excl. svc charge & GST
=Overall=
The service was good, the staff served us (and other customers) attentively and the ambience was good, not exactly noisy/ loud given that it was full house during our visit.
Bonus point, the car and plant back-drop was really instagrammable lah~
