To mark my wedding anniversary I went to the newly opened restaurant located on Ameenee Magu just in front of Stelco building. The name SPICE FUSION is new type of name in Male’ as I have heard of fusion cooking on the cooking channels. As I went inside the house turned to restaurant, the interior was nicely designed. The hallway was separated by nice wooden grill partion. The table was nicely laid with two white piece of table cloth and with red napkins. And with a candle lit on the table.
The menu was brought and when flipped it I saw they had a big menu. And even had Chinese food also. In the thought of checking fusion food, for a soup I ordered pumpkin onion soup. The soup arrived about in thirty minutes, during the time I was entertained by some guy coming it the restaurants’ kitchen which was just next our table with some bags of food items maybe. Male’ being small city I thought it was ok.
The soup was great. It was thick and creamy. Considering eating this soup for the first time. My taste buds were comforted by this delicious soup. Just as finished my soup my appetizer watermelon feta mint salad followed. I have seen this salad being made on TV with watermelon cubes. But here it was scooped from a small spoon in to small balls mixed with feta cheese and black olives. Spicy at first but the ingredients nicely fusion together. One of the best salads I had. For main course being a “fish” man I ordered Fisherman’s catch. Which consists of pan fried tuna, reef fish and anchovies plus boiled vegetables? The reef fish was fired medium and the fishy taste was ok. But the tuna and the anchovies was nearly burned to crisp. And the anchovies tasted too salty. Overall the dish was OK. But not my favorite.
Skipping dessert I ordered a coffee with a new name Nesspreso Espresso made from some special kind of coffee (as written on the menu, but in too small letters). The coffee relives the night. It was strong and delicious. Anyways I enjoyed the candle lit dinner on this special occasion with my wife. I will surely go and check other dishes on the menu. One thing I noticed the manager (I think) asked how the food was after every course. Keeps me wondering whether he knew I was going to write this.
