I just had my dinner at Secret recipe yesterday evening, feeling a little adventurous I decided to try the durian cake. When it was served … it looks a bit dry, maybe it’s the design or something. Well, on the first bite … my face had an instant transformation – a sourly awful looking face. I told my mom, “I think this cake has gone bad”. My mom replied, “not you think, it is bad”. Well that was the first and the last bite, the waiter defended a little that durian cake actually taste that way (by default I guess what he means), I just don’t think durian cake should taste sour-ish. Nevertheless they exchanged with a new cake – thankfully it still taste ‘ok’. Next come the main course, I had the Irish stew. It wasn’t all that fantastic compared to what I had a few years ago when Secret Recipe first started. I can’t complain much though except the ‘supposed’ whipped potato. I am assuming (probably I am wrong) that whipped potato should be fluffy not hard or old, as if it was regenerated / ‘resurrected’ for a zillion times.

That’s not the end of the story … YET. I did some grocery shopping after dinner. My stomach started to churn a little from time to time and massive gasses was ‘produced’, it was not chronic yet and I could still wait till I reach home. As soon as I unload my grocery at home, I had to sprint to the toilet. It was mini diarrhea, I guess for that one mini bite of the cake. Although it was just a mini relieve, it is very very toxic and polluted the air in my room. Ok ok enough for the details.

I don’t know about you, but personally I am going to stay away from Secret Recipe for a while.
