The mushroom faze


I always find myself fixated over particular foods, or go through a food faze where I will eat the same food for weeks on end. This time I ate the same food for at least a month. My fixation was 'Mushrooms'... The mushroom faze...

Some people have fixations over men, cars, midgets or anything that really tickles your fancy. However my fixation is over foods.

From oyster king mushrooms to shitake mushrooms I incorporated the mushroom into every meal.I guess when you feel passionate and fixated over something, you will do anything to get it! I guess that is all apart of human nature, and the human mind demonstrating the power of determination!

From all the mushroom dishes I had in the month, the stand out was the Zilver Restaurant's 'Mushroom dumpling'. My word, this dumpling is a piece of work! I ate a few servings of the 'Mushroom dumpling' at least 3 times a week.

What's so good about these mushroom dumplings?

The infusion of the mushroom dumpling is simply incredible, a nice soft, luscious dumpling casing to bite into and once you delve into your first bite, not only will you taste the flavours of oyster mushroom, garlic and coriander, but the aroma of the dumpling will hit you like a love drug. Dip the dumpling into a a bit of chili sauce and there you have perfect chemistry!

If you are going through a mushroom faze, please ensure you feed it with a mushroom dumpling!
