I first came across Fruit Paradise among the mad crowd in Manpuku (Tampines). You can now tantalize your taste buds at Fruit Paradise in Orchard Central with a lesser crowd! This new branch also serves a reasonable list of food other than their renowned fruit tarts. It's now time for a taste test!
Soft Shell Crab Salad, S$8.80 
Was slightly disappointed with the soft shell crab salad. The presentation was reasonable but the soft shell crab is cold and it was no longer crispy. The salad will be more enjoyable if they are able to fry the soft shell crab before serving and plate it side by side with the salad.
Mushroom Curry Rice, S$12.80 
The well flavored, crunchy mushrooms are delightful and go very well with rice.
Golden Black Curry Rice, S$14.80 
What? Black curry? The unusual name intrigued me and I had to try this.
Both the golden and black curry was thick and fragrant. There are bits of pork slices in the golden curry but the portion was quite miserable. The black curry was quite interesting as it has a strong hint of black sesame seeds.
Strawberry Montblanc, S$8.30 
A sweet note to end the meal. The strawberry montblanc had finally done some justice to Fruit Paradise. The skillfully decorated fruit tart is pleasing to the eye. Well balanced texture of the fresh strawberries, thick cream and crunchy tart base goes well in harmony with each other. The sweetness was perfect.
