Kimakari gyoza from Takumen. Essentially a quail egg-headed and heavily pregnant xiao long bao which erupts a powdery, Myojo-esque Japanese curry. 3.8/5 This was a hosted meal, courtesy of Takumen. Takumen 66 Circular Road Singapore 049420
Green Curry Gelato with Sticky Rice from Gin Khao. Essentially cold, spicy green curry paired with pulut hitam-esque black glutinous rice, and quite the exhilarating, Indian-tinged dive into savoury dessertdom. You will finish the serving not quite sure if you had just eaten a dessert, and the meal will feel…
Curry Debal from Quentin’s. The curry itself was watery and tangy with a slight spice sting. The chicken and chicken sausages did their job of curry absorption best as they could, but I was most intrigued by the bacon bones, which were essentially pork bones with the flesh tasting exactly…
Curry fish head from Lau Hock Guan Kee Bak Kut Teh & Curry Fish Head. The fish is uber fresh, tender and moist, with generous servings of vegetables swimming in the thick and sharply tangy assam curry. Very reliable, and one of my two go-to places for curry fish head. 4.4/5…
Spam fries with curry mayo. The piglet rectangles are reliably tasty indulgences, made a bajillion times better by the curry mayo which is essentially gentle yet thick mayonnaise making sweet love with Maggi curry powder. 3.9/5 P.S. Check out the cool “live” electronic Likes counter! [Tasting courtesy of Little Hiro.]…
Assorted crabs at Brizo Restaurant & Bar’s ‘Crazier About Crabs’ Buffet, which runs from 1 April to 28 June 2015. Essentially, the dinner buffet comprises of 22 types of crab dishes (e.g. Premium Crabmeat Fried Rice with XO Sauce, Crabmeat Kueh Pie Tee etc), 26 kinds of seafood and a brand…
Roast duck in red curry with pineapple. The curry was decently rich and I loved the crunch factor from the vegetables thrown in the mix, although methinks the roast duck probably played a bit too much basketball under the February sun. 3.5/5 [Tasting courtesy of ParaThai.] ParaThai 11 Tanjong Katong…
Georges Bank seared scallops, duck green curry, coconut rice and peanut crumbs. The scallops were fresh and bouncy lumps of happiness whilst the duck was chewy, just a tad tough and rather salty. You probably never tasted coconut rice quite like this – it was not merely fragrant like Nasi…
Baked chicken skin, foie gras purée, spiced mango, tarragon and curry. Although it looks as if mango and foie gras left little poop swirls, this dish is definitely more hit than shit – the crispy chicken skin is a delightful mix of sweet and savoury, with the Maggi-esque curry powder…
