Dinner at The Pantry was generally decent but difficult to justify unless you are staying at hotel and convenience is what you were after.The meal was generally good but nothing stood out as excellent or would entice me to return. The food served felt "safe" and boring. Entrée of asparagus was nice but the ball of mozzarella was stone cold. The lamb shank was extremely tender for the main, but a single lamb shank did not justify the price. Desert of Rhubarb and Vanilla Panna Cotta was tasty and crunchy on the top half while bland on the bottom half. Service was excellent. I did feel that they were tight on the quantify of wine served. I paid for a "tall glass" and got barely half full.

The entree was pretty good, with a delicious olive's patté ... the fresh past was a bit spicy, but despite that was delicious and really loaded with meet. Desert was normal.
Had a Groupon 2 courses dinner last night at Pantry restaurant in the Novotel hotel. Set-up is quite grand and I love the ceiling decor. Serivice deserves thumb-up due to the fact that the waiter automatically asked if we need some dish dish plate to share or entree, which is a very good observation and taking care of the diners. That is what we mean by service. Ordered the entrees of Thai Spicy Fried Calarmari, Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings and mains of Grilled Pork Cutlets & 400g Sirloin (they did not have the rib fillet last night). Portions of chicken wings seemed too small for the price of $36 and the texture was too dried, however, taste was good. Texture of calamari was not consistent but the sauce was delicious. Cuilinary skill on the sirloin and pork cutlet is good, particularly the sirloin was done perfectly med-rared (the best degree of steak preparation lately). We were filled up so full that our stomach could not accommodate any dessert. Overall, I feel happy with the dinner, particularly with a good deal from Groupon. Having said that, the menu's prices seems to be reasonable except the chicken wings. Recommend foodies to have a go!
