It was about high time I wrote a post about this beautiful restaurant I’ve always seen beyond the river but always thought that it would be too expensive for my poor wallet, especially with the number of ang mohs littered around the riverside, which of course, looked too gorgeous for someone like me to even think if going!
But after I got an invitation to review the place, thanks to Joanne Kay of Kinderdijk, the company who owns brands like Crocs, Fred Perry, Barbie (yes!) and others, who’s boss also happens to run Taragon Bistro, I found out that I was majorly wrong- that Taragon Bistro is a perfectly fine place to hang out, have a drink or two and most importantly, feed ourselves with gorgeous nyonya and western food (not fusion, but two separate type of cuisines) that has been so overlooked, even for an average joe like me 🙂

So it was no surprise that when we got there, we could see lots of cross-marketing available along with the restaurant’s promotion, which I will share with you soon enough! Crocs FTW!

Being on the riverside means you can witness everything from a distance; from the colours, the life of the streets, to the splashing rivers and many more, even when you’re right at the beginning of Jonker street!
But in any case, let’s give you a teaser of what’s to come right after the jump! (and the reason why you’re here too)

It’s for this. Wanna know what this is? READ MORE! (yes it’s edible, and
yes it’s YUMMY!)

Also another highlight. I loved it so much that I took more than I could handle, and boy the belacan is some SPICY stuff! If you’re a Baba or Nyonya, you’d really appreciate it. I swear 🙂

Lastly not forgetting the dessert. Can you spot the hidden Mickey? 😉
Anyway this is actually a long post so do remember to click on the title or the “read more” section as most of the delicious shots are right after the jump. Drool away!
