Let’s start this virtual food tour shall we? Let’s begin with the appetizers.
They had Shredded Meat Soup, freshly baked breads, and this delightful Golden Shrimp Balls.
Love tofu? This is a nice nibbling treat – Stuffed Bean Curd! The dragon carving adds to the over-all flair of the plate.
Dimsum lovers -steaming hot siomai. They also have siopao.
If you want something light, go for salads. The Promade has an organic salad bar, fresh from their very own, Orchard Valley Organic Farm. For this celebration, they also present Chinese Shrimp Salad
For their Station of the Week, they have Soy Chicken, White Chicken, and Chinese Roasted Pork with special sauces for you to pick.
Let’s proceed to the main dishes, but let’s not forget the rice. Feel free to choose Steam Rice or this Peking Rice. It has pineapples, squid, and mushrooms.
My personal favorite at The Promenade is their dessert spread. Take a look at this from egg tarts to hal-halo!
A popular Chinese dessert, Almond Jelly.
With its sweet aroma, this Steamed Banana Cake is hard to resist.
Not to be missed is the Moon Cake
