Merienda at Astralis

My sister invited us out this time for an afternoon with Mom.  We decided to make it a regular thing to spend time with the girls.  We watched a nice movie at Power Plant Mall. We cried and loved the movie…

and then we had merienda at Astralis.  Since it is mom’s recent favorite, my sister chose that place.  

We got excited when we saw this sign on the table…

They did not have the buffet at the time we were there, but they gave us a sample to try 🙂  They served us the FRENCH raclette…. it was good but we prefer the SWISS kind which is not as strong as the French raclette

Though we each ordered our own dishes, we still shared everything 

Yup! This is my dish!  🙂 Pan seared Foie Gras on Kirsch apple quarters and plums

Our GM’s favorite Salad – Apparently is Mom’s favorite salad too, so this is Mom’s order

Baked Oysters Three Ways – this is my sister’s order, she loves oysters!

This is a new discovery for us.  Our eldest brother told us to order this! He knew it was our type because Mom serves us something like this.  Our brother was right! We loved it!! It is a Japanese type of pasta! We highly recommend this if you like cod roe 

Sato-San’s Japanese Mentaiko Spaghetti – spicy cod roe, nori on cream sauce

Oh my gosh! This dessert is a must!  They recommended this to us!

Chocolate Truffle with Lemon Curd and Peanut Ice Cream!!!! The chocolate truffle cake is so yummy!!!!
