Dinner@Ellenborough Cafe

Has been there a few times for the buffet and was there on Saturday. Not sure if they expanded their selection as they have 2 more areas where there are spread like oyster, sashimi, scallops and some main dishes.


Of course their attraction are the black bean paste crayfish and the durian pengat if you like durian. The crayfish is like the kind of "Now you see it Now you don't" but the replenishment is quite fast. The salmon sashimi also vanished in the speed of light as people took them in bulk.


How do they make the durian pengat so smooth so consistent ?
One possible version is below ... ( Parental Guidance is advised )


Durians are pry opened by whatever *Not important*

The pengat extractor *The only guy*

a) eats lots of crayfish before he starts
b) will removed each seed and placed them in a big bowl
c) brings out the big bucket
d) warms up his mouth with numerous mouth, jaw and lips excercise
e) puts the seed into this mouth, tugging the seed left right up down using every inch every part of his mouth to remove the flesh, spit out the seed and then the flesh
f) repeats step e) till all the seeds in the bowl are finished or his mouth is cramped




Anyway, was bloated at the end of the feast though seems like we ate nothing much. AMEX card gets a 15% discount, quite good considering the total amount :)
