Food and not wool at Black Sheep Cafe

Bar bar black sheep, have you any food? Yes sir yes sir one restaurant full..... Cuchi came across Black Sheep Cafe while we were walking around little India. Surprised by the type of food being offered in the midst of shophouses and area, Cute Cute and Cuchi decided to give Black Sheep a shot.

The first thing that the lions noticed that the restaurant has very limited seating, a very surprising way of limiting the number of diners coming to their restaurant! Could be a good place to have a private function. After enough gawking, Cuchi ordered their dinner. Roasted brie cheese, duck confit, lamb shank and orange souffle.
Roasted Brie Cheese

Duck Confit
The Brie cheese came as a surprise to the lions as they were expecting the brie cheese to be in cubes rather than the given presentation. Regardless of the style of presenting, the main crux would be the taste. Nice, creamy and not too chewy are the words to describe the roasted brie cheese. That coupled with the grapefruit salad makes it a nice combination. The duck confit was done very well too. Very tender and full of flavor deep even within the meat signifies that the duck has been marinated in the fat for sometime.
Lamb Shank
The next main that the lions ordered was the lamb shank. Although it was tender, the lamb shank was quite average. Think the lions really preferred the duck confit. 
Surprise! A complimentary dessert!

Orange Souffle
By the time the desserts came, the lions were rather stuffed. However to really have a sweet finish, the lions pushed on. The orange souffle looked like it was going to explode anytime. Not too sweet and possessed a roasted orange taste, the souffle was also a class of its own.
