Food Files
But make no mistake, TYD has an eclectic food selection with a signature touch of innovation without missing the taste. The menu, with some Asian and Indian cuisines, Tex-Mex, Sushi, Burgers, and Italian cuisine, ensures something for all. The unique Sushi Conveyor Belt is great as you can handpick sushi, sashimi, and maki rolls directly off the table. Start with the hearty Vietnamese Style Coconut & Turmeric Soup, available with prawn or vegan options, a perfect hot pot of coconut broth infused with the flavour of lemon grass that will whet your appetite perfectly. Follow it up with the Crisp Eggplant made with Fried Brinjal Strips glazed in a fragrant sauce from Southwestern China and the Chicken Caesar Salad that has assorted lettuce, tossed in a creamy Caesar dressing served with Parmesan skin and Chimichurri chicken skewers to start the meal on a right note. The menu has an extensive South Indian section with dishes like Andhra Chilli Chicken, Banjara Chicken Tikka, Nilgiri Lamb Chops and Coastal Tawa Seer Fish available. A special mention must be made of the Vegetable & Three Cheese Seekh Kebab, a vegetarian seekh topped with a combination of three kinds of cheese, served with a spicy bell pepper coulis, roasted beetroot, mint and tomato garlic dip. Sim Sums, Bao’s, Maki Rolls, Tacos & Pockets, Burgers, Pizzas, and Sandwiches are plenty too. For the main course try the Massaman Buff Curry, a rich, flavourful, and mildly spiced Thai curry with undertones of cumin and coconut cream that is refreshingly filling. A selection of Indian mains teams well with the breads and rice options. And to end on a sweet note tuck into the delicious Deconstructed Tiramisu that has a fluffy mascarpone mousse, coffee sponge, chocolate tuile, coffee foam and coffee jelly as well as the Coffee Toffee Pudding Flambé, a soft and delicious baked dessert made with jaggery and dates, served with toffee sauce, orange ice cream finished off with a brandy flambé.
