Dinner at Canto Papa today. I chose this place randomly as my friend and I were going to a theatre to see a stand-up comedy after dinner. I looked in the map and picked this restaurant as it located opposite the theatre. I think I made a good choice. This food is delicious and I was very thirsty after dinner. I think there is some MSG going on inside here. Probably explains why the food is so delicious?
We shared 2 small dishes, eggplants SEK99 and pakchoy SEK99, two main dishes - wonton (shrimp and pork fillings) noodles SEK225 and hong shao rou (braised pork berry) SEK250. The main dishes come with a bowl of rice except for the wonton noodle because it is a noodle dish. The portion was sufficient for the two of us. Our favourites were the eggplants. It is crispy on the outside and soft in the inside.
Although the braised pork belly is a main dish, it is as small as the pakchoy and eggplant dishes. The bowl that carried the pork belly is deeper though. Anyway, braised pork belly did not melt in the mouth, like the dish I had at No 17 Palace. Even some of the meat was chewy.
Pakchoy leaves could be bigger. They were small. My boyfriend said that the small leaves are young leaves and tastes better. I disagree. I want big leaves.
