Bobby's Taproom/Grill/Ribs

Today Southernoise will write in third person just for the heck of it and he will never do it again. Evaaahhhh. If he ever refer to himself as Southernoise on this blog again... please hit him on the back of his head, poke his eyeballs and kick him in the ass the next time you see him.

Camemberu, Keropokman and Southernoise went to the market... lets do this again.

Camemberu, Keropokman and Southernoise went to Bobby's at the newly revamped Cuppage Terrace for an invited food tasting session to promote their Festive Set Dinner Menu available from 15-23 December 2008. Southernoise was late due to the bad weather and traffic, however he reached just in time before the salad was served.

Festive Tossed Salad with Honey Baked Ham


Southernoise felt that the salad was not a good representative the capabilities of the restaurant and the chef. He felt that the greens could have been more crisp and crunchy, in other words fresh. The vinaigrette dressing was not balanced, tilting towards balsamic vinegar sourness. He agrees with Camemberu that the ham would be nicer in shavings rather than chopped. Also he thinks that homemade croutons should be used. Southernoise is being honest and not snotty here as he is a big fan of salads.

Grilled Dory Fillet with Sorrel Cream Sauce
Fillet of Beef with Signature Mushroom Sauce(Hidden at the back)


Southernoise went "mmmmmm..." when he tasted the fish. Well seared and the accompanying sorrel sauce was a very good blend together with the mashed pumpkin. He was wondering what sorrel sauce was till he googled it up now. And now he knows that sharp taste almost being spicy but not the familiar spicy was from sorrel a herb/plant. Commonly used as an ingredient to sauces that goes very well with fish. Common in French cuisine. Kudos to the chef for this. Southernoise would go back to Bobby's again for this fish.

The Fillet of Beef he felt was competent with the use of the fillet cut to ensure tenderness. Beef was done just nice. He has no complaints here.

In the set menu, there's another item which is the Grilled Turkey Breast topped with Chestnut Stuffing and Giblet Gravy Side with Cranberry Sauce. This was not served during the tasting session but Southernoise thinks its sounds absolutely like Christmas.

Bobby's Signature BBQ Babyback Pork Ribs


Camemberu, Keropokman and Southernoise was quite surprised when 2 plates of ribs was served. Nice.

Southernoise took a small portion of the ribs as he is NOT a fan instant Hickory Flavoured BBQ sauce that is commonly slathered all over ribs served at other establishments. However he regretted as Bobby's ribs were not slathered with this pungent repulsive sauce. Instead it tasted pretty good! He had a portion that was a bit dry but ribs being ribs, there are portions that are drier than the rest.

We were told that the ribs are available for takeaways.

Chocolate Log Cake


Southernoise impression of logcakes are generally very sweet, very dense cakes with plenty of cream. However the ones served at Bobby's is light and not overly sweet.
