Gave Mejico Restaurant a try. It was right next to Jamie’s Italian and thought it would be easier to get a seat and also to try something different. After sitting down, and looking through the tips on Foursquare, I wasn’t too confident of the food. Not exactly many positive tips. In the end, I think it was alright; but felt a bit pricey.
The food is Mexican and I ordered according to some recommendations shown on the menu. The waitress also recommended that we get the guacamole. It’s made fresh in front of us on the Grinding bowl.
Market Fresh Guacamole
Avocado, Spanish onion, Coriander, Lime Juice. Wasabi, Walnuts, Serrano Chill
The waitress started off by asking if we were allergic to anything. None, so that was good. Then she put the ingredients into the grinding bowl and mixed them. From that moment, I wanted to say I’m allergic to the sound of the mortar and pestle…brrr.. And my next comment I wanted when she picked up the lime and said “now we add some lemon juice….”
Hiramas Kingfish
Ruby Grapefruit, Watermelon, Pepitas, Radish, Charred chilli flakes
I found this to be a bit too sour for my liking. But it probably would go well with some drinks.
Pacific Scallops
Avocado, Pomegranate, Jalapeno, crispy eschalots
This one was alright, but some people might find it bland. The sauce tended to soak into the crispy chips at the bottom, making it soggy.
Smoked Pork belly
Black bean hummus. Tomatillo salsa
This was actually quite nice. And the sauce went well with it. But as you bite into it, you know that there are a lot of fat on the pork.
