Modern Twist On Local Food

Chicken Rice with a Japanese twist
.
Slices of signature soya chicken were rested atop a block of chicken rice that is glazed with Teriyaki sauce
.

Laksa with a twist
.
Linguine served with laksa sauce, fish cake, fresh peeled shrimp and topped with hard boiled egg
.
Other than the hard boiled egg, the rest were mediocre at best. The BH’s laksa wasn’t very spicy due to the watery diluted laksa sauce. And the prawns were cold and also not very fresh
.
Honestly, I had high hopes for this. But I was really disappointed by how this particular laksa dish tasted
*I had tasted better ones at a cheaper/same price amount
.

Kaya Toast with a twist
.
Filled with house-made kaya and topped with mocha ganache and a slice of butter
.
I opt for mine to be chilled but Keong Saik Bakery insisted on toasting it in the oven. Overall, the bitter mocha ganache complimented the sweet “sourish” kaya. And the croissant cube had a nice crispy texture and almost buttery feel
