Seafood Paella
I recently had the good fortune to dine, not once but twice at this Internationally renowned hotel's Mediterranean restaurant. Mosella. The food is very good, the service excellent and the ambience with the high ceiling, above average.
The Mosella restaurant serves international cuisine. The hotel is at Claymore road, beside the Thai embassy and the Orchard Towers.
Let me review the 4 dishes we had. On the first visit, my associate and I had the Pan fried Cod and Seafood Paella (above and below). The Paella was very tasty with lots of calamari, some morsels of mussels and 2 giant Tiger prawns.
This dish alone is a standout. For $ 72 for 2, it is pricey. Fortunately for me, I have an App which offers discounts of up to 50% and we managed to get 30% off the whole meal off the Ala Carte menu.
Pan Fried Cod with Asparagus Spears
The pan fried asparagus is another superbly tasty dish. The skin is crispy and the meat, tender and succulent. The sauce with the grilled asparagus added a new dimension to the meal, which I totally enjoyed. Price $42 is again on the high side.
Zuccini Tempura Spears
This zuccini dish was somewhat of a letdown, the flour tempura was rather clumpy and not crisy enough. The zuccini while fresh, did not emit any erstwhile flavour as a reault of my wife did not bother to eat the remainder of the dish.
Grilled Lamb Chops
Amazing 3rd dish. The grilled lamb chops. The meat, while fatty was so flavourful reminding us of the grilled char siew or belly pork from our chinese cuisine.
While the meat was rather fatty, I would say all in all it was an extremely satisfying dish, only second in place to the Seafood Paella in terms of flavour, optical delight and well worth trying on the odd occasion when there are only the 2 of us dining out on a Saturday night.
