Tao's Restaurant



The melody played harmoniously in the background as the grp of us laughed our way in.

“eh, sure it’s a 6-course meal for tt price? I bet I could finish all cld I’m famished!” the fren quipped.

Frankie, the waiter attended to us, as the fren quickly proclaimed “Come, I teach yall how to order” As she explained, she gave us pockets of information from her previous experience here. So we each had a little difficulty deciding on wat we wanted to eat each, or a little was an understatement, cos there were loads of variety under each course. Indeed, it was a 6 course meal- Starters, Appetiser, Soup, Main course, Tea, Dessert.

I asked Frankie “Wat’s Jap Fish Consume? Is it nice?”

“It is basically a clear Jap broth anddd… everything’s nice here.” He patiently explains.

“Plus it comes in a teapot.”

“Ok, I’ll get tt!”

You see, everything here is like a state of art and the food are so beautifully created tt no wonder ppl hold their ROM here plus all the photos on its signature stone signage advertise its popularity with celebrities, despite it being located at POMO, a rather out-of-the-way location off Hotel Rendezvous.

So I had:

Appetiser:
Gratin with Bacon bits and mozzarella cheese
(all had the same cos it was a compulsory item)

Soup:

prawn roll (eh my fren siad it was not bad but didnt get toshare cos if not she'll eat nth)

fruit salad (but acc with some crab mix on top, it was delish!)

chicken salad (found it a little normal-ish like it didnt get my thumbs up)

Main Course:

(frens had: steak, lamb chops with mint)

ALLLLL for the price of SGD 23.30 including service charge and GST!!! –tink tink tink! Think ur eyes bluffing u rite? NAH! Serious it’s really worth it and it makes ur dining experience here super nice and cosy. U dun get the “jus cos it’s posh, u r given fake-smiles-and-all attitude” U really feel tt they r genuinely really happy to serve u.

U mus be thinking “eh, how come I got to try 2 teas?” u see, they are really generous. Everytime u finish 1 course, they r more than happy to ask if u wan another serving. And they dun bluff!! They really give u if ya game for another. BUT pls dun let the greedy monster come out of u. cos 6 course is really NO laughing matter.

HOWEVER, the 5 gals still decided to take up the challenge and happily requested for another 2 more mushroom soup (seriously damn freaking gd- the strong n yummy mushroom all blended and added with a drop of cream) plus 2 more pots of iced tea. HAHA which we finshed with fervour.

Skeptical of the good deal, we cheekily asked Frankie: “Frankie, really it’s free?”

“Who say one? There’s nth free in this world! U pay leh!”

“HUHhhhhhh… nvm then pay lor”

Then the bill came and nth was charged extra despite us eating extra.

U see how nice some restaurants can get and I’m really amused at their service. SO NICE!!! So pls give them ur support and frequent this place! 10 stars!! Esp for Frankie and crew.

Andddd pls in order not to be disappointed, pls doo doo doo make an appointment!
