I decided to check out an Italian restaurant, Silver Spoon, for dinner as we have both not dined there before.Plus, some fancy Italian delights sounds good! More often than not, the four of us always opt for alfresco dining, so a nice table right out front was booked for us.

To my right, there was a rather elaborate bar, counter and a cake display below.
I liked how neatly they exhibited their bottles of alcoholic beverages and wine glasses.
They seem to complement the chandeliers above, which looked like glasses themselves!
As I walked in further, there was an wall almost entirely dedicated to their bottle display shelf
and huge flat screen TVs adjacent to the dining area.
To my left, there were more dining tables, catered to fit a bigger number of patrons.
To the left of the entrance, were even bigger tables for maximum capacity! Group dining would be a breeze.
Did you know that their chandeliers are made of actual silver spoons itself?
Hence the name of the restaurant.
Let's get on to the food shall we?
We didn't have to wait long before the first dish came. The rest all came consecutively – all at one go!
Roasted Pumpkin Soup
It was made with oven-roasted pumpkin puree blended with vegetable stock, with croutons on top.
I didn't quite fancy the rather oily, cream based on top of my soup, although aesthetically, the design was pretty creative, forming a beautiful presentation for a soup dish. yes
It tasted wonderful, made with just the right consistency of a perfect pumpkin soup!
Caesar Salad
This is one unique Caesar Salad, that's for sure! Instead of the regular ingredients like chicken strips and regular hardboiled eggs. tandoori chicken chunks and hardboiled quail eggs were used. yes Delicious!
Apart from that interesting twist, it came, typically, with baby romaine lettuce, caesar dressing, croutons and parmesan cheese.
Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms
These were fantastic! The mushrooms were so soft and juicy, bursting with even more goodness of herbed mushrooms stuffed inside. Very flavourful, though I was expecting more stuffings than just mushroom inside.
Either minced meat, bacon bits, sauteed onions or capsicums would be a nice addition to the stuffings inside the mushroom caps. But I guess this works as well.
Norweigian Salmon Fillet
The risotto was made with squid ink, hence the blackened colour.
I loved how thick the flesh of the salmon was, and it was grilled to perfection too. Soft on the inside and slightly crisp on the outside. The spinach was a nice touch to balance the meal.
Chicken Tandoori Pizza
This thin-crust pizza was very well made and crunchy with each bite!
The mint sauce yoghurt goes very well when paired with the tandoori chicken – pretty sure the Indians would approve! It also had mayo underneath, tomatoes and onion rings, decorated sparsely with mint leaves.
Braised Lamb Shank
I couldn't find a single flaw in this dish. It tasted too good, tender and tasty, exceeding my expectations!
It is rather balanced a meal with a generous helping of vegetable sides too.
From their array of cakes, I chose their Molten Lava chocolate cake.
Molten Lava Chocolate Cake.
Had a lovely time in a wonderful, cosy and quiet environment!
