Oriens Asian Fusion - Moncton

One of the best Asian fusion restaurants I've been to in a long time. The portion sizes are just right. Prices are very reasonable for the quality. Service was great and we didn't have to wait long for food even though we were a large group. I'd definitely come back to try more dishes! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Fusion? More like conFusion. I like fision styles. But just layering things like a three headed frankenstein dish isn't fusion in my book. There has to be a reason to put ingredients together, not just random thai-then-korean-then-japanese-then-chinese. That's what my dish was like. It has basically a pad thai base, bulgogi style beef and a fried egg, chinese style vegetables and katsuobushi smoked fish on top. It didn't make any sense. The flavours didn't get along and eating it was confusing, not interesting. The beef wasn't fresh and it was terribly dry. The noodles were drenched in grease. The only common element that brought it together was the amount of sugar in the whole thing. We also ordered these breaded, deep fried avocado bites. They tasted good, but there was something very freezer-to-deep-fryer about them as well. Although they were freshly garnished in tobiko flying fish roe and a duo of sauces that worked quite well. Then we had a pair of crispy rolls. Basically large inperial rolls. They tasted of nothing discernable. No seasoning. Just crispy oily pastry with misc. vegetables inside. Very bland and odd. We also got a chicken and rice noodle dish with veggies. It had zero sauce. So, chicken, noodles, veg. That's it. So overall, confusing, bland and not fresh. Fusion can be exciting, daring and interesting when coming up with new ways to use ingredients. This was not the case.
