The Assumption Pathway School Training Restaurant
The school in Cashew Road a few steps uphill from Cashew Road MTR on the new Downtown line opened a few days before at the start of this year.
The restaurant is in a building behind the wide front block.
The decor is white and clean and modern. Nifty tables are square to seat four comfortably with semicircles on all four sides hinging up to make a circular 6 seater table.
From 12 until 3 midweek you can order the $13 set meal. We enjoyed a free hot roll and butter followed by our starter, soup of day, which was mushroom soup with tasty garlic croutons.
My main course was chicken and salmon, ample potions of both, with potato cooked in a ramekin, and crunchy free vegetables.
You can order non-alcoholic cocktails for about $3 to go with your meal. Coffee or tree is another extra. (You can also buy pastries, stainless steel mugs with lids, and Chinese seasonal delicacies such as a jar of pineapple pastries at $12.)
Dessert of the day was pandan, green subtly flavoured local plant, attractively presented in a circle of red strawberry or raspberry sauce.
The waiters were keen, almost too keen, trying to remove one person's plate before the other person had finished. I think this might be Chinese style, clearing away empty plates, as would be done at a buffet. In the UK when we eat Russian style, in a series of courses, starter, main course, dessert, it would be wrong to rush the slower eater by removing the other eater's plate.
We had enough leftover food to take home. No problem wrapping it up. The deli counter by the door serves cakes to take away, so plenty of containers. Most restaurants, except buffet restaurants, are geared up for diners who want food to take away.
Please share with your friends.
