bought the Hae Bee Hiam Seafood Aglio Olio ($23)
Umami Prawn Linguini ($23) with the 1-for-1 pasta offer currently ongoing at The Cathay!
Hae Bee Hiam Seafood Aglio Olio was an interesting fusion and creative dish. The spicy flavour was mild and not the punch-in-your-face kind that some spice lovers look for! Perhaps it was just our dish that had this issue but the clams were shrivelled up and not the plump, juicy ones we anticipated. Additionally, the pasta was dry and thus is given a 6.5/10 rating.
The Umami Prawn Linguini was flavourful and had a nice salty taste which we enjoyed! Both the sauce and the linguini complemented each other well, definitely a good dish to try out :") Did not feel jelak at all, a solid 8/10!
Both pastas came in generous portions and left us feeling satisfied! Overall a good purchase with the 1-for-1 but not worth the original price.
