Best Craft Beer in Singapore, 2018

Extremely strange taste.. Not worth trying even with burpple beyond

Ugly photo but this was so good! The beef patty was delicious and the sauce + cheese + onions + pickles went really well with it. I’m normally not a pickle fan but the ones here were pretty nice. The bread was good too! Only thing is... it’s pretty messy to eat (or maybe I’m just very chor lor?)

Oh, and I originally wanted the December special but it wasn’t available. I’m not sure if it’s a weekday thing but I guess I’ll have to come back here again! (My wallet though)

.
Features a trio of soft, chewy flour tortilla, open-faced, topped with cilantro rice, steamed barramundi fish fillet, red bell pepper / capsicum with purple cabbage coleslaw, and fresh guacamole, with a little Sriracha sauce drizzled over.
.
The fish is fresh, and the taco / tacos have bold sweet savoury flavour, with hints of vegetal herbal creamy notes.
.
I loved every bite of this, so satisfiying that I finished all of it quickly.

A simple Mexican snack, featuring chunks of tender, boneless chicken, wrapped in soft, chewy flour tortilla (instead of crispy corn tortilla).

Served coated in a rich gravy of juicy vegetal sweet Salsa Fresca / Pico De Gallo blended with fragrant garlic, tangy lime juice, creamy sour cream, crunchy parsley, and gooey cheese.

This features 4 pieces of soft, chewy flour tortilla, that you get to build via a series of side dishes, including juicy vegetal sweet Salsa Fresca / Pico De Gallo, creamy vegetal earthy sweet sour Guacamole, rich sour sharp Sour Cream, and Cheese.

But the star is the pan-fried sauteed plate of Fajitas Beef, with pieces of beef, and a medley of tender crunchy vegetables (red onions, red & green bell peppers / capsicum, and garlic), lending vegetal sweet flavours.

Spending the Saturday away from the merciless sun and sudden afternoon showers a couple weeks ago, the girls and I decided to cozy up at King and the Pawn with wholesome card and board games. Our favourite being “Red Flags” as we create hilariously terrible dates for one another. Then we fuelled up during the unlimited game time with their many brunch grub but what stole my heart was the hearty bowl of their umami Truffle Fries with Seaweed Mayo ($11). Surprisingly good and pretty legit, the snack was the ideal game food as you can’t go wrong with piping hot, crispy fries and a very moreish savoury dip.
