Asian Kitchen - Vivocity

I always thought that Asian Kitchen in Vivocity was a branch of the similar looking restaurant in Raffles City, till I checked my old post - it's completely different actually, just that the restaurant interior is really very similar, with lots of wood and reds and the menu is also very red. But what a relief that it isn't, since the food here was way below my expectations.

Prawn Wanton Noodle Soup ($6.70)
Juicy wanton with thin skin (I hate the thick skinned kind) with a tasty prawn broth and noodles. Pretty ok for $6.70 but not extremely memorable.
Moonlight Horfun ($10.70)

This has lots and lots of noodles, but very little ingredients. Plus, it was very oil. The Teahouse one at Raffles City beats this hands down. They have similar names too! No wonder why I got confused. I was pretty shocked (after eating my meal) cos the food standards were totally different. It's called Moonlight Horfun because the egg is uncooked and you can stir it in yourself. If you're scared of salmonella, you can always request the chef to fry you egg into the noodles.

Chef Foo Eggplant ($7.70)
According to the menu, it's their chef's magical concoction of sauces. To me it's just a super salty soya sauce based gravy, drenching a pitiful amount of egg plant. It's daylight robbery eating this dish - it's even more expensive than the prawn wanton soup! And it's just eggplant... Don't eat this if you have hypertension - not only will the over salted egg plant increase your blood pressure, the feeling after you eat it might make your blood pressure rise too!

Guo Tie ($5.90 for 6)
The Guo Tie was crispy and juicy, pretty good but then again, guo tie isn't my most favourite dish.
Banana, Sago and Coconut Milk Dessert ($3.80)
Skip this - it's extremely sweet and thick coconut milk (more like coconut cream) with a small amount of sago and 5 small, thin slices of banana. It's totally not worth the $3.80 (before service charge somemore).

The only redeeming factor for the restaurant is that the service is pretty good - efficient and the waitreses are quick and attentive, and they fill up your water real quick even though business was brisk.
The interior really looks like Teahouse in Raffles City! Kena conned thought it was the same restaurant:(
