Fusion Food
Located near Tiong Bahru MRT at about 8-10 minutes walk away, Coq and Balls is located amongst a row of cafes/restaurants. We were welcomed by friendly staff and it had a chill vibe to it.
We ordered 5 dishes and our favourite amongst all was the “balls” from their Coq & Balls dish [$15.90]. It was a croquette with crispy outer layer and creamy inner layer. Would say that this is one of the yummier croquettes I’ve tasted in Singapore. The wings had a strong lemongrass taste to it. Other than that, we weren’t blown away.
Their Tom Yum Seafood Pasta [$20.90] packs a rainbow of flavours in its sauce plus they were generous with their seafood ingredients too.
The tomato soup [$6]was thick and flavourful! The texture felt like it was blended from scratch. We feel that this is good for sharing!
As for the chilli crab sauce and clams [$14.90], it was kind of underwhelming as the chilli was too sweet for us and the clams didn’t seem to absorb the taste too well too.
Lastly, the caesar salad [$10.50]was refreshing especially more so because of the sauce.
All in all, we will come back for more! :)
Served with toasted sourdough, it is a good match with the dish. The garlic oil was a surprise to the palate as it does not leave a greasy texture after consumption. If prawn is your love, you will love this!
Smoked Salmon Mousse with Grilled Asparagus and Poached Eggs, was also a surprise as the mousse contained a deep salmon fragrance that I have never imagined would be possible in the few mini blobs! :)
These wings are served with deep-fried masa-battered jalapeños, cilantro & blue cheese dipping sauce.
The combination of the juicy and well-marinated wings and the dip definitely drew us in and I guess we will be going back for more! 🙊 .
