Looking for Indian places?

I wanted to finally try their nasi lemak, but should've gone simple, instead of being lured by simi lava chicken. It turned out to be a form of devil's curry, super spicy. The meat, although tender, wasn't the best cut. The basmati couldn't absorb the coconut and tasted too plain.

We were strolling in Joo Chiat and saw them open. It was a surprise but we just ordered two slices. Still very good to me, but the fiancee felt the standard has dropped since Mr Mohgan passed away.

Given the name burma social it's a mystery why anyone would get the Indian, Chinese, or Thai dishes since such cuisines are so easily found in Singapore

Also they're quite sneaky w the salt, it's quite salty even if it's not immediately obvious. Plus the heat was quite tough on my stomach, I was having heartburn even 4hours after the meal

Food:
The rice thoke. Their dinner menu isn't working (at least for me) but if it were, it would be a menu item dead centre of the bottom section of the menu

It's rice w tomatoes basically. The freshness of the tomato is strongly expressed in this dish, through the use of other herbs. It's really delicious, the only complain is the slightly rough stickiness at the back of the throat of the rice.

Delightful, and despite what they say the two dishes I had aren't actl that similar.

A very wet and weak version of this. The flavour and the impact has probably been adjusted (we all know why, the clientele)

It's still enjoyable enough. The shrimps are too hard to be in a salad tho, it's more for cooking

Overall barely passable

They offer free Burmese tea but a review says it's caffeinated. Surprisingly their still water was free, but best to check again

Anyway the condiments were quite special. From the left, Cantonese chili oil tasted V diff from most. It's got a diff base I think, and a substantial sweetness that works to increase the power of the chili oil

The peanut and garlic mix was intensely aromatic although the flavour falls short a little. It's also mixed w a slightly spicy spice powder

The last taramind paste was interesting too. It's got aroma from the garlic and nuts, as well as chew from diced onions. This is something I've never had before, and I really liked it

Very good condiments

First time trying Kambing Soup as it looks interesting.

I like the thickness and richness of the soup which is like Thai Green Curry.

The (goat) mutton is boneless so it is not messy.

Overall, really like it

Happy to try this Indian buffet by Michelin-starred chef Manjunath Mural. Here's Lucknowi chicken biryani, Lucknowi subz biryani, haryali fish tikka, chicken kesar kebab and Kerala prawn curry. He has to get biryani right and I'm happy to report it's so yummy. Both the tandoori meats were smoky and juicy. The prawns used were also good quality.

Happy to try this Indian buffet by Michelin-starred chef Manjunath Mural. Here's garlic naan, butter naan, Punjabi samosa, paneer takatak masala and banarasi subz korma. I loved the banarasi subz korma, which was like cream curry with asparagus, carrot, broccoli and cauliflower. The samosa's crust was really crispy and fragrant. For naan, you can order them hot from the oven.

Happy to try this Indian buffet by Michelin-starred chef Manjunath Mural. I liked this chaat most, probably because of the use of spinach and potato.

Happy to try this Indian buffet by Michelin-starred chef Manjunath Mural. I liked this chaat less than the hara bhara anardana chaat.

Thosai was alright but all the sauces were good.

Standard prata

Dhal was thick and quite good, fish curry was decent
