Blancharu, Elizabeth Bay

Today is Mid-Autumn Festival. It is normally where family gathering together for dinner then eat moon cakes and play lantern afterwards. My family dinner is at Blancharu. We have chosen the 7 course degustation.

After our order taken, we were served with small bread rolls, French onion or sourdough. The French onion bread roll has a right balance of onion taste.
Aburi Ocean Trout with Macedoine Salad and Dill Pesto
Shortly after our first entree is served. It is a very interesting start and looking forward to what will follow.

Second entree is chicken terrine, Tikuzen style. (Sorry forgot to take a picture of it)
Clam Broth with Carrot Flan 
We have to mix up the flan at the bottom to eat with the broth together.
Mushroom and Sweetbread Pie with Balsamic Sauce
This is deconstructed pie. The pastry is crispy and it is very interesting to try sweetbread. It is very tender.
Possion Du Jour is Pan Fried Barramundi with Garlic Butter and Cauliflower
This dish somehow gave a bitterness taste to it. 
Wagyu Beef Tenderloin, Cassava Root, Bordelaise Sauce, Wasabi Power
Never had cassava root before, first thought it is some kind of potato chip. The texture is harder than potato. 
Dessert Du Jour is Cheesecake with Passionfruit sorbet
Finishes off with a cheesecake and my favourite passionfruit sorbet... yum yum!! :D
Moon Cakes - Lotus Seed with Egg Yolk
We finished off with moon cakes at home. :) Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!!!
