Besides the Nasi Lemak with its two killer sambals and the three incredible desserts, I would vote the “Beef Rendang Pizza” as my other favourite from the “Wok & Barrel Make MEE Great Again” dinner at @ownselfmakechef.
Laid on the soft and chewy dough was a good amount of cheese, a little tomato sauce and the pièce de résistance of Wagyu Beef Rendang. The ratio of each topping to the others worked well so the outcome was a tasty and balanced flavour profile. I was also very pleased to find the chunks of meat aromatic, very tender and spicy enough to be taken seriously.
On the whole, this themed dinner by @chefshentan differs from the other two I’ve attended: “Sinfully Seafood and “What The Duck” because it is more of a trip down culinary memory lane albeit with tweaks since quite a few years have passed since her “Wok & Barrel” days. Furthermore, it includes a couple of new “mee” dishes as well.
If you are keen to try this menu ($99 per pax), be warned that it is extremely carb-heavy. Skipping a meal prior to it is highly recommended. And pacing yourself during the meal itself is paramount.
