Put two old friends together and the lunch will become a “full-blown” gossip plus catching-up session.
Food? Wait…let me try to remember how the food tastes like? I think the only things that I remember are the gossips that were traded and perhaps the good-looking guys who had walked passed?
I guess the main conclusion that we had come to is that the Asian Kitchen is a great place to people-watch. We were both seated at the strategic table where you get a direct view of the people coming up the escalator. (City Link Mall is a mall-cum-underpass that leads to various buildings including the Esplanade.) Besides getting a great view of the crowd that is walking pass, it is also more cooling to sit in this part of the restaurant since it is further away from the kitchen, in contrast to the tables at the back of the restaurant where the temperature seems to be warmer.
Pork Dumplings or Xiao Long Bao - $3.70
Suan La Noodles - $8.70
I had the Suan La Noodles, which is supposed to be spicy and sour, but I didn’t taste the spiciness in the noodles at all and the Xiao Long Bao do not taste as nice as the Din Tai Fung ones. Therefore on the whole, the food at the Asian Kitchen is only average.
