It has been a long while since I last visited Outback Steakhouse. The items I remember about Outback is the steaks, baby ribs and Typhoon Blooms. Recently, the Outback Steakhouse Singapore Tasting Menu is introduced and is available at both the outlets in Singapore. I got the golden opportunity to try all the new items from its Tasting Menu and I am very excited to share.
Outback Steakhouse Singapore Tasting Menu
Outback Steakhouse isn’t new to most. I am sure most must have visited once if not multiple. The restaurant has recently introduced a new Tasting Menu. In this Outback Steakhouse Singapore Tasting Menu, they have introduced 3 categories with a total of 10 dishes. Read on to find out more.
Choice of Appetizer
First and foremost is the appetizer. Outback offers 4 mouthwatering appetizer choices which are all great for sharing as a group.
First is the Shrimp and Avocado Ceviche ($14.90) which is the most well received among their customers and that include us too.
Next is the Crispy Fried Mushroom ($13.90). Each button mushroom was breaded before deep frying this is to ensure that the mushroom retains its juiciness. And indeed it did. When one bite into the mushroom, the juice of the mushroom started bursting out. Dipping into the spicy ranch dressing will elevate the tasting pleasure, provided you are one who like sauce. Otherwise the natural tasting flavour will be good enough.
There are too many diners who loves their chicken and the Crispy Chicken Bites ($10.90) would suit them most. Likewise a sauce is prepared too. For this dish, it is with a spicy New Orleans sauce.
Last but not least in the appetiser category is another dish which received 2 thumbs up each from all the diners at the table of the night. It is the BBQ Pulled Pork Fries ($14.90). Instead of having plain fries, this dish comes with additional ingredients such as pulled pork, cheese and spicy Ranch dressing to spicy things up.
Choice of Entree
A total of 5 entrees available for selection with choices of beef, pork and pasta and prawns.
On the list, being the first is the Black Peppercorn Crusted Ribeye ($37.90). The USDA ribeye is seared with peppercorn crust drizzled with balsamic topped with grilled asparagus and paired with peppercorn cream sauce.
Another steak is the The Porterhouse ($45.90) consisting of filet tenderloin and strip. This is a simple steak with nothing fanciful. Best when one prefer savouring the natural juicy fragrance of the beef.
Having the best of both world is the Steak and Shrimp Skewers ($39.90). Diners could enjoy both the beef and prawns.
For diners who love their steak and pasta could opt for the Steak Pomodoro Pasta ($24.90). The cavatappi pasta is topped with a pomodoro sauce that is slow cooked with steak and tomatoes. As such it is a tomato based pasta with flavourful beef scent. Before serving the dish is topped with basil and Parmesan cheese. This dish is suitable for the kids too.
Should beef is not your preference, one could opt for the only non-beef dish on the Outback Steakhouse Singapore Tasting Menu, the Garlic Glazed Pork Loin ($25.90).
All the dishes comes with either one or two sides whereby diners could choose from the available list of sides.
Dessert
In the Outback Steakhouse Singapore Tasting Menu, the only dessert available is the Chocolate Thunder From Down Under ($14.90).
A relatively huge scoop of vanilla ice cream sat on a chocolaty brownie. And if the amount of chocolate is not even, it is drizzled with chocolate fudge. Finally a ball of whipped cream with dusted chocolate crumbs topped it off. Though this dessert is a little too sweet for me, it will be perfect for the sweet tooth and both both the adult and children in the family.
NAHMJ Verdict
Outback Steakhouse Singapore Tasting Menu consists of dishes suitable for the young and the old from the appetisers to entree to dessert. As such it is no doubt family friendly. The Outback Steakhouse Singapore Tasting Menu is available at both the Millenia Walk and Orchard Gateway outlet.
