Fusion - Free&Easy

I think it might be the first time I've actually had Japanese surf clam. Not unlike abalone, it's pleasantly chewy and tastes somewhat similar.

The potato salad is smashing – crushed potatoes topped with sea asparagus and enlivened by pommery mustard, pickles and shallots.

Taste: 3.5/5

Not expecting the strong “wok hei” aroma from this seemingly simple yet well-executed Black Pepper Beef Hor Fun ($11.50), each ribbon of hor fun was smokey good.

Slathered in a delectable and robust black pepper sauce, Rayz Bistro’s variation uses sliced rib eye beef that was both tender and succulent. A hearty and generous portion, the seasoned beef slices were thickly cut and paired nicely with the other elements. The noodles were also able to absorbed the essence of the luscious gravy.

And aside from this delightful plate of charred goodness; the muslim-owned bistro also offers a good range of western and asian fusion fare such as Rays Chili Crab Pasta ($19.50) and Rack of Lamb ($26). However, set at a more premium price tag perhaps due to the ingredients used, I would reserve this place for intimate family dinners or special occasions.

Thank you Rayz Bistro for feeding us, Ms Dalillah for hosting us and Burpple for the invitation!
