OYO Restaurant & Cocktail Bar - Bedfordview
Hong Kong Pears
A last minute cancellation for a music video shoot had the director and me make our way for a quick bite to eat at a nearby mall.
A need for a power outlet so that we could carry on working landed us at Oyo Restaurant and Cocktail Bar.
A quick set of starters and a few drinks, helped our creative minds get to work.
Best of all the dishes in my opinion, was the Hong Kong Pears - Crisp mashed potato dumplings stuffed with a mixture of chicken, duck and prawns and presented in the shape of pears. Impressive on the eyes and the taste buds!
The restaurant's website states that “Oyo” is a Chinese expression meaning “whoa” which is precisely what many are sure to say when they first enter oyo."
Being Chinese, I can see what they're trying to say, although in my opinion it's more of an "Ahya!"
Regardless of the differences, I will say that the food was pretty good and that it should definitely be given a taste if you're in the area.
