This is a classic example of when your head says no but your belly says yes.
Had it at “Maddie’s Kitchen”, a 6-months-old eatery on level 5 of Far East Plaza over the weekend and I liked it more than the one by a certain eatery chain found around Singapore.
The pork was tender and properly braised, the savoury stewed cabbage, appropriately mushy, and the fried egg, done on point with a frilly edge and runny yolk (I love that it also came with a drizzle of sweetish, thick soya sauce).
As much as the curry appealed to me (it’s pretty fragrant and not at all sticky nor starchy), I was glad it got splashed only on the rice and didn’t drown everything on the plate.
If you are in the area and decide to visit ”Maddie’s Kitchen”, don’t forget to order the “Oyster Omelette” ($10.80 nett). Technically, it is on the dinner menu but you can try asking nicely and the kitchen team isn’t being swept off their feet, you might get lucky.
