Exotic, Desa Sri Hartamas: Exotic, Indeed!

It feels great to be able to blog and not bog down by work. Here's keeping my fingers crossed that it'll be a while more before my next hiatus. As mentioned in an earlier post, although the blogging has stopped during the hiatus, the eating has not. And thanks to the Qguides for the invitation, many weeks ago, I've managed to savour a surprisingly good Indochina meal.

I used the word "surprising" because truth be told, I've not heard many good things about this place before the invited review. Hence, I've always deter from walking into its premises in the past and chose other establishments over it. I don't know what has changed, it could be the chef or the recipes, but if the dishes served the other night were anything to go by, I'd be happy to bring my friends back there for a meal. That is saying a lot for a place I wouldn't step into a month back. And the one thing I really like about Exotic is the fact that I can get Vietnamese, Cambodia and Thai dishes all in one place.

Anyway, because it's a Monday, I'm making this a visual heavy post. Enjoy!

    Excellent post, Munky. But unfortunately, as a food review you failed miserably because your brilliant cartoon overshadowed everything else!! :D
