When something sounds common, we usually tend to judge based on what we already know. But sometimes, we discover that the ordinary becomes exceptional.
That’s what Chef Gerald of Flavours Gastronomica has been doing for the past year. He uplifted your usual dining experience and left a mark on it. Healthy menu without compromising the taste.

These are best sellers and yes they make you drool, plus Chef Gerald has made some modifications that you didn’t imagine will work fine.
He used lemongrass as skewers for the chicken and sometimes sugar cane.

Frankly, I am not a fan of Salmon because of it’s oddly fishy taste (it was sushi). But these versions made me want to devour more. At first I tried a little but saw myself eating the whole thing.
