Imperial Treasure Windows of Hong Kong (TripleOne Somerset)

TripleOne Somerset is just a short distance away from 313@Somserset, one of the most popular shopping destination in the Orchard Road area. The quiet shopping mall houses an interesting mix of restaurants, one of which is Imperial Treasure Windows of Hong Kong. 

 

 

 

 
To ensure that customers have a truly authentic Hong Kong cafe experience, the restaurant has adopted the Hong Kong cafe way of operation. You have to order and make payment before stepping into the restaurant, the menu changes according to different times of the day. You will be given a timer and food is self-collected at collection point when the timer buzzes.
 
 
The cutlery are disposable and pre-packed to ensure hygiene. I personally feel that this makes the restaurant feel a little cheapskate, but this is the standard practice in Hong Kong cafes.
 
 
Beef Brisket Noodle 柱候牛腩面 combines clear broth with tender chunks of beef  brisket, a popular noodle dish in Hong Kong thanks to its robust flavour.

 

 
Pig's Totter in Red Fermented Beancurd Noodle 南乳猪手面 tastes so good because the pig's trotters are well-marinated with the rich fermented beancurd.

 

 

 
Wanton Noodle 鲜虾馄饨面 looks plain and boring but the richness of the broth will take you by surprise. Made by boiling prawn shells for hours over high heat, the broth is a little sweet and reminds me of the sea. The prawn wantons are made of chunks of fresh prawns.
 
Although the ordering system and menu can be a little confusing to Singaporeans who are not used to the Hong Kong cafe system, the high quality of food makes a trip to Imperial Treasure Windows of Hong Kong worthwhile.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
