Lunch at Su Korean BBQ restaurant (and Gelare)

This Far East Plaza restaurant came courtesy of HX's recommendation. We went there 3+pm, so it was quite empty. Not a bad thing, service and food were prompt and good. Love the complimentary sides, so pretty, like six mini bowls of art.

Ordered just three items. Chicken fillet, bacon and fried vermicelli. The chicken looks a bit gross just thrown together in a messy heap on a plate, but the bacon was nicely presented in circular layers and a thick slice of onion crowning the heap. Not sure what exactly we were supposed to do with the onion. Don't think any of us ate it, but we grilled slices with the meat for flavour. Not that extra flavour was especially needed. I thought the chicken and bacon were already marinated quite well.

They had this yummy fermented bean paste too, that Dawn found too salty, but which I grew to like and added to everything. Didn't try much of the other two sauces they provided.






























Turned out to be quite a filling meal, and reasonably priced too, exceeded my expectations (not usually a fan of restaurants that make you cook your own food). Our bill came up to a $55.55 (which reminds me, gotta tell ma to go buy 4D).

Moved on to dessert at Gelare. Ordered a Cookies 'n Cream sundae and a Chocolate Chip Waffles (or "waffu" as HX likes to call it) with a scoop each of Chocolate Overload and Tiramisu ice cream. Shared among the 4 of us, so the amount was just right. Heaven in a sundae glass and a plate.
