One has to constantly innovate to keep up with the competitive industry, but innovation need not refer to fancy fusion or absurd new creations with confusing palates.

By paying a little more, I tried their Satay Chicken Chop (S$10.90) which I enjoyed very much. Firstly, the sauce that was layered atop the grilled chicken was thick with a rich nutty flavour and mildly spicy. Secondly, familiar ingredients such as the diced cucumber and raw onion rings helped in balancing the Satay flavours, just like what we would have in their skewered forms (thankfully, no Ketupats here!). Lastly, the usual sidekicks — fries and coleslaw — helped remind me that this was still a Western meal, with the coleslaw especially maintaining its usual creamy consistency. Overall, it’s tasty and balanced, yet rich enough before it became an overkill.
