What you ladies and gentlemen were doing on a Wednesday night? Went out for some ladies-night fun?? ^^

Me and my boyfriend went to The Hoofed in TTDI. For those of you that don't know where's the Hoofed, it is located right above Tom, Dick and Harry. Many of you might be wondering why did we choose a weekday night to go there for dinner. Well, thank to me forgetting that I've bought the voucher for that place and did not manage to go over the weeked, due to making late reservation. =(


It took us quite a bit of time to find a parking even it is on a Wednesday night *phew*. Luckily we made the reservation rather than walk in, as we saw tables with "Reservation" sign on them. Hmmm.... talk about having good business on a weeday night! We were being sitted near to the entrance, but it was quite an ok spot to sit. Patrons were already eating and enjoying their beers when we arrived, and I must say, the environment was not bad. With the dim lightings and the space between tables are consider spacious (I really do not like restaurants that arrange their tables to close to each other, as you lose all the privacy you would want over a meal). It is a bit noisy though, due to the music blasting from downstairs, but you are still able to talk to each other without having to shout. =p



The wall at the sidewalk while walking up the stairs are full of these cute 'lil flying pigs ^^

Our voucher consists of a soup, a main course, and a dessert:

Tomato Soup (personally..it tastes more like a tomato puree rather a tomato soup....)

Chilled Tomato Juice Fried Chicken Chop with mushroom sauce and vegetables Pork Shoulder

Vanilla ice cream and banana topped with chocolate sauce

  

Browies served with vanilla ice cream

The food were generally ok, but I was kinda disappointing with it. First of all, the main course were not served hot. They were not cold, but they were at room temperature. You would expect a piping hot dish when they serve you the food. Besides that, the portion of the food. It is reaaaally too small, be it the main dish or the vegetables at the side. They only have 2 snow pea, 2 carrots and 2 brocollies. Other then that, by looking at the dish, it is really not that appetizing. I guess this might be due to the plating of their food. They were just practically a piece of meat stacked on top of a barely-there-mashed-potato, and with few vegetables at the side. I'm not sure this is how they plate their food or was it because we were using the voucher so they kinda "cut-cost".

The dessert was not bad. I'm more of a ice cream person than a brownies gal. However, I still think the brownies were not bad. They hit it up before serving, so you'll get that moist and warm texture. Pair it with the ice cream, you'll get that warm and cold sensation in your mouth. Their brownies is not too sweet, so it is just nice to eat it with the ice cream.
