Food Review- More than just an average Black Sheep

After a fruitful day of cleaning, we ventured out to the Black sheep restaurant for a mid-range fine dining experience.

Starting at $35 for a 3 course meal, we were met with a slew of food offerings that starting with ‘cheeky’ and ended with ‘baa-tastic’.

Our starter to the deluxe meal was that of a cold prawn dish that included sporadic drops of balsamic vinegar and pomelo bits. The dish in itself was tad bit little, although by appetizer standards and the fact that we were famished did help the situation.

There was also a lovely nice mushroom truffle soup and pipping hot bread that did the trick to keep us sated.

For the main dishes, perhaps it’s more a matter of preference but the broiled beef dish L recieved came with a few stringy fries and 4 pieces of peas. That didn’t quite cut it for me; especially when I’m quite big on Veg+. Was it mentioned that the dish was only lukewarm?

My dish was that of a duck confit that tasted pretty delightful. Basic requirements aside which consist of the usual food pyramid – vegetables, proteins and some carbs- this dish did look quite outstanding.

Before the curtains were drawn, for the last act which in itself did add credit to the meal came in the form of dessert. A gorgeous raspberry sherbert ice cream, doused in a lovely jam sauce. Positioned elegantly to its right was that of a chocolate cake that was just the right amount of decadence.

Not a bad place to venture through, although for couples who are seeking a peace of mind and some quiet time; do avoid festive seasons as this location is a gathering ground for post-work drinks and merry-making.

Here’s to a good lunch, kicking off mid 2016. To a year of delightful changes and more.
