My jaunt to Sun With Moon was really meant to be one purely for desserts. But when my friend and I saw the menu, we couldn’t help but order Round 2 of dinner. Yes, I know, I’m disgusting–but that’s OK. My friends love me that way. Round 1 was at Ayam Penyet in Lucky Plaza. The chicken and the beef there damn sedap lah. Please go try if you can. Cheap and good. It’s on the fourth floor of Lucky Plaza which is like a place stuck in a 70s time warp.
Anyways, at Sun With Moon, my friend ordered the Japanese omelette with mushrooms while I ordered the house salad with sesame dressing. When the salad arrived, it was in a cylindrical glass container and the dressing was then poured inside. The waitress then shook the container vigorously to evenly coat the vegetables with the dressing. The vegetables used in the salad were just like any other garden salad really but I can never resist sesame dressing. I would lick it off the bowl if I could. ;p
After that, we had dessert. Friend ordered green tea ice cream which came with some red bean topping and some black sesame jelly. I had the 4-in-one bento box. I was greedy–as usual–I wanted to try four different desserts. But it didn’t turn out to be very good.
The first dessert was a mix of fruit morsels. Preserved fruit by the way. So it wasn’t exciting. It had preserved baby peach, sugar-soaked grape, grapefruit, and pineapple.
The second was black sesame pudding which I didn’t quite like. The black sesame layer atop the milk custard layer wasn’t black sesame-ish enough if you know what I mean. And I don’t really milk custard in general.
The third dessert consisted of two mochi balls (with no filling) with some red bean topping which I found overly sweet.
Last one was a scoop of chocolate ice cream which was too milky for my liking and not chocolatey enough.
So really, I didn’t enjoy my dessert at all. And I think that’s it for desserts at Sun With Moon. But whoever said the Japanese were known for their desserts anyway? Shoulda known better.
