My Food Paradize: Zhou's Kitchen

We have visited The Paramount for Lunch/Dinner Ala Carte and we all love the delicacies. It's just that the pricing is quite high.
This time, we visited another restaurant under Tong Luk Group~Zhou's Kitchen.

The restaurant is situated in Far East Square where 'Lingzhi' restaurant used to be.

The surrounding of the restaurant - Far East Square

The wall deco.

Quite a smart idea. With the limited space, a so-called Private Room is seperated by a 'Ping Feng'. We still can have our private space.

the menu

We were having Ala Carte Lunch Buffet. Adult $19.80 ++ Child $12.80 ++ (Below 10 Years Old) for 39 dishes.

Prawn Craker ~ $3.00 per basket
2 baskets of Prawn crakers were served while waiting for the dishes to be served.

Appetizers

Sliced Boiled Pork with Tasty Garlic Sauce

Sliced Pork Trotters with Jelly Fish

Salad Prawns with mixed Fruits

Drunken Chicken

Deep-Fried Pran Dumplings with Salad Sauce

Baked Flaky BBQ Pork Pies

Century Egg Porridge

Deep-fried Chicken marinated with Prawn Paste

Fried Baby Kailan sauted with Sambal Belachan

The fried baby kailan was too salty for the first plate, but due to the tastiness of the vegie, we requested for light salted on the second round.

Steamed Glutinous Rice with Minced Chiken in Lotus Leaf.

The tesxture of the Glutinous rice is very smooth and it doesn't make you sick.

Pan-fried Carrot Cake

Pan-fried Chive Dumplings with Chicken

I didn' get the chance to taste the pan-fried chive dumplings as there's only five pieces and by the time I finished taking photos on the food, the food had been grabbed. Haha, anyway I'm not the fan of 韭菜, so , never mind.

Steamed Chiken Claws with Chilli Sauce (Top)

Steamed Pork Ribs with Black Bean Sauce (centre)

Steamed Shrimp Dumplings (bottom)

Chicken Claw is not my dish, I like pork ribs, however, the taste of the pork ribs and shrimp dumplings are not very surprise, it just up to the dim sum standard.

Deep-fried You Tiao with salad.

We expect to see the 'You Tiao' comes with a saparate saucer of salad sauce that what normally others do, This 'You Tiao' however has already showered with the You Tiao but amount of salad sauce has covered almost the whole you tiao that we could only taste the salad sauce.

Hot and Sour soup. 酸辣汤

When the soup was dished out, I was very excited because I missed the hot and sour soup that I used to drink at a dim sum restaurant at Boat Quay when I was working at Raffles Place.

The soup is fine, hot and sour but, as compared to the other hot and sour soup that I've tried, this bowl of soup still has some room for improvement. It would be good if the quantity of ingredients can be increased.

Complimentary one portion of "Basket Crab Rice' with 6 diners and above.

I love this dish as the carb was quite fresh and the rice was perfectly cooked. Neither too sticky nor too hard

Dessert

Sesame Cream

Chilled Mango Cream with Sago and Pomelo

This is my order, The taste mango cream was very sweet but the pomelo was bitter, so it balaced off the sweetness of the mango cream and sago.

Ice cream puff

Bite sized ice cream puff is the right portion for after a meal. It won't makes you too heavy.

Rice Dumplings with Sasame Filling

Zho's Kitchen is a good place for Dim Sum lovers, you can find the Dim Sum here at other places outside and $18.90++ Ala Carte Buffet is really worthwhile where you can have more than one order, compared to $1-$2 for per basket, you'll ended up spending more for one type of Dim Sum.

As it is a casual dining, there won't be much 'heavy' dishes that serves in The paramount. It's good for a quick and budget lunch.

The service crews will keep refilling our tea when they saw our tea were left half glass full.
