Without further adieu here is our last Let’s do Dessert
trip for the year. Booking our reservation a week in advance takes us to the
Ocean Room.
First visit to the Ocean room for the October
special meant I didn’t have high expectations despite all the hype and rave
over this dessert dish. Did it meet my almost-non-existence expectations? Read

Strawberry mascarpone with dehydrated strawberries and beetroot chips; strawberry soda pop; mint infused foam and MORE strawberries served with orange muscat & flora from Victoria. |
The strawberry mascarpone was done well but the
beetroot chips? It was more a long strip of beetroot with barely any taste, and
make that a tough strip too. We heart our beets but the dish probably could
have gone without this beet strip. Strawberry soda pop won points as it gave me
the infamous chewiness of a mentos.
Mint foam: Were we eating foam/bubbles? It also
didn’t help that the spoon provided was way too big, perhaps they could have
used Shangri La’s cutie dessert spoon
instead.
Unfortunately, this dessert number didn’t make me skip a beat but don’t
forget there is still time left till November hits so get out there and do more
dessert dates!

Aww there's nothing more frustrating than not being able to get at the bottom of your dessert because of mis-sized spoon! Shame about the beetroot but the strawberry soda pop sounds intriguing!
ReplyDeleteYes! That tease of, "I'm here but you can't get me!" haha!!
