crispy deepfried tofu
6pax family dinner at canton paradise @ j-cube on 28.11.2014. 🙂
this a quick update, as we were just here 2 days ago.^^
not that we had a choice. did not read the small prints, & bought 2 groupons which (1) could not be redeemed at canton paradise star vista but at other outlets, nearest being j-cube, & (2) could only redeem 1 voucher per visit. & today the last day for redemption, so we had to come back again before voucher expired.
this time it was 7.30pm on a friday night & parking was near impossible. we came in 2 cars. 4 of us got into the carpark at 7.10pm. the second car was in the queue but decided to try for another carpark, unsuccessfully & returned to queue again after 20 cars lining the way down the car park ramp & outside. so never get out of the queue! they came to the restaurant like 40mins later.
we tried a few new dishes.
the crispy deep-fried tofu (S$5.80) was very good, crisp outside, smooth consistent inside.
