Harold's Bistro and Bar Review

My bestie wanted to surprise me so she brought me to this place. Thank you for the surprise, I've never been here before so it's good.

It was a bit quiet when we got there. We saw at least 3 ladies eating alone at the restaurant. I don't know, I can never do that. Maybe at a food court but not at a restaurant.

The service was really good, the waitress was super nice. They gave us bread too.


Anyways, I just wanted to order the crab cake burger ($17) but she started ordering sides too. She got the honey garlic and bbq chicken wings ($15), peking duck spring rolls ($14) and New York steak I think ($31). I don't really like it when my friends spend so much money on me. If you were a guy then I don't mind, please spend more on me haha joking. It makes me feel bad and this bestie will never ever let me treat her back so it makes me even more bad. =( That was one expensive meal...and I'm very thankful!

The chicken wings were a bit hard to eat, I guess that's because it's suppose to be crispy and with the sauce it made it a bit hard to eat. But it's not bad, the bbq was ok but the honey garlic, I couldn't really taste any garlic.

The spring rolls, I thought it's super duper expensive for 4 tiny spring rolls. It was crispy. I couldn't really taste any peking duck but bestie did. I only see a lot of veggie. They should just fill the whole thing with duck for that price, honestly. There was a sauce and I believe it's like the Chinese plum sauce but in a Western style?


The crab cake burger came with this chickpea tomatoe based soup (you can pick either fries, salad or soup). The soup tasted like a chilli which I really like. After that soup I was pretty full already because of the chick peas that filled me up.


The burger was ok but it was lacking some flavour and sauce. I guess I shouldn't order anymore fried food from Western restaurants. I was just too full so I pretty much packed the whole thing home.


My bestie told the waitress that it's my birthday and they gave me a complimentary dessert off the dessert menu. I picked the mud pie. Aww, it was so pretty and they even added a candle. I'm thinking... I had the same type of cake for my actual birthday but I didn't get a candle on it... Oh well. It was really good, mocha ice cream as well with a cookie crumb like base. They put so much cream on the side and there were a lot of almond pieces too.


Overall not bad and I will come back again. It's a super quiet place to eat. Great place to talk lol! Thank you once again for dinner but please don't take me to such an expensive place next time. =) (If you are a guy, please bring me to expensive places, joking.)
