Finished off the meal with an Apple Crumble, that somehow took a fashionably long time to be served but was well worth the wait. Tinge of ginger and whiskey with the caramel sauce on the ice cream was pretty interesting.
Went for the Iberico Presa (Pork) for our mains, and it was so sinfully good with the right amount of char and fats. Love, love the accompanying sides of Scallion Salad, Red Potato Salad, Charred Broccoli - a mix of asian-western fusion that complemented the meat reay well.
#throwback to last week's amazing Valentine Dinner at @koal.grill !
Special Vday 9-course menu that included some of their signatures like the Bacon & Spring Onion Roll with Sour Cream & Chives Butter and Burrata with Grilled Kale.
Finally got the chance to try the burger from @hambaobao! Went there on a weekday afternoon, just before they open and managed to avoid the snaking queue which followed after.
Generous chunks of crispy Siow Bak with english mustard, hoisin sauce (reminds me of Peking duck!!) and cucumber sandwiched between two soft, buttery buns. Also added the Hand-Cut Fries for just $2.50. The kinda burger we never knew we needed. Love it!
Who knew bakkwa can be used in so many different ways and still taste so good? Wasn't expecting much tbh but it turned out pretty impressive!
Ordered (in sequence) the Chicken Roulade ($22), Chili Crab Fettuccine ($24), Fish Risotto ($20), Grilled Chicken with Alfalfa ($18) and Mozzarella Katsu ($10). The first 2 items were my favourites. Love how the bakkwa gives all the dishes that extra crunch and sweetness. No bakkwa in the Fettuccine, but I dare say it's one of the best (and spiciest) Chili Crab pasta I've had! All redeemed using @burpple 1-for-1 π

Probably the closest we can get to Japan during this pandemic! Took a mini day trip out to the west to try out the new @joya_onsencafe. Booked the private onsen and had these refreshments as an add-on.
Nothing too fancy but it was really satisfying especially after taking a hot bath! The Hokkaido Honey Milk Ice Cream is a definite must have for those with a sweet tooth. We also added the Ichigo San ($9.80) and the Crispy Mushroom Fritters with Nori Mayo Dip ($8) to fill the stomach π
Finally trying the korean food at @ajummasg, managed to avoid the queues when we went there towards their closing hours (afternoon). Very satisfying bowl of noodles and it comes with free-flow sides too. The crispy pork belly reminds alot of the Chinese sio bak η§θ though.
The closest we can get to Taiwan for now πΉπΌπ
Pretty cakes, pretty place ποΈπ° PS: The shop is also heavily influenced by My Neighbor Totoro
A bottomless bowl of seafood goodness, with trove of batang fish, clams, squid, lala, minced pork, tofu, prawns, crab and even a lobster! Really comforting and satisfying dish for the price. Not the most accessible place to visit by public transport but I wouldn't mind traveling all the way down again for this.
Charcoal Grilled Salmon ($18) 1-for-1 deal from Homeground Grill & Bar courtesy of Burpple Beyond! Also topped up $2 for black truffle salt to be paired with my steak. Lovely place for a dinner date with a wide selection of drinks and bar bites.
