Here are our reviews of three separate purchases:
1. Chicken Breast, Sweet Potatoes, Pumpkin Seeds, Black Olives And Sous Vide Egg (With Olive Oil Vinaigrette Dressing) - $9.90
The chunks of baked Japanese sweet potatoes (purple skin variety) were firm and cakey which exuded a naturally sweet essence in every bite, while an entire sliced chicken breast fillet heaped upon was midway between succulent and chewy in terms of texture. Overlooking the slightly miserable ration of pumpkin seeds and black olives dispensed, this made for a largely satisfying repast.
2. Torched Steak, Brown Rice, Roasted Peanuts, Roasted Capsicums And Sous Vide Egg (With Olive Oil Vinaigrette Dressing)-$10.90
The torched steak pieces (atop a bed of sufficiently nutty brown rice) were done medium rare - browned exterior vs pink cross section with hints of red. Appetites were quickly whetted at a glance, unfortunately the meat didn't quite meet expectations taste wise no thanks to a tangle of rubbery gristle which required careful circumenvention amidst an underlying dryness.
On one hand the sous vide egg was already punctured at the onset, thus compromising the crunchiness of them peanuts with its leaky core; the roasted capsicums of assorted colors on the other partially redeemed things through a zesty articulation of the bitter, sweet and fruity. In any case, this is surely one elaborate meal in itself, so be prepared to feel stuffed once you are down to the last morsel.
3. Tom Yum Prawns, Pasta, Sweet Corn, Seasoned Tomatoes And Button Mushrooms (With Olive Oil Vinaigrette Dressing)-$11.40
The tom yum prawns were quite a treat; lips tingled slightly from one potent delivery of both spicy and sour. The sauteed button mushrooms which were full of robust flavor enchanted equally. However to our absolute dismay the fusilli pasta turned out to be tediously plain spirals of durum wheat bordering on the unpalatable. As far as the seasoned tomatoes and sweet corn are concerned, we plead the fifth.
