[CLOSED] Sinful Roast (Geylang)

Chanced upon Sinful Roast, which shares a space with Whampoa Keng in a new Coffeeshop which had recently opened its doors at 512/514 Geylang Road (near Lorong 28 Geylang, if that is a better way to describe its location) serving up roast meats such as Char Siew, Roast Pork and Soy Sauce Chicken.

Went with the Wanton Noodle here, but also took the opportunity to add Roast Pork — because, why not? The Wanton Noodles here come with Char Siew, Deep-Fried Wanton, Minced Pork and Mee Kia; the soup also comes with soup wantons as well — the style of presentation being rather similar to that of Roast Paradise’s Hakka Noodles option without the Mee Pok. Liked how the Char Siew and Roast Pork comes with a good proportion of lean meat against fatty parts — the former being aptly caramalised without being too sweet and carrying just enough bite, while the latter comes melt-in-the-mouth, juicy and tender with a crisp skin on the outside; savoury with a good flavour. The egg noodles are springy, tossed in a savoury sauce — opted for chili to be added but felt it was rather mild (although it could be due to how my order was done with 一点点辣 a.k.a. a bit spicy when confirmed by the staff), but I really loved how the bits of minced pork creates an added bite and a meatiness that makes the noodles feel less boring. The silvers of pork lard were less chunky than I would have preferred, but provided sufficient crispness and a savoury note that flavours the noodles even more. Both the fried and soup wantons were delicious and well-packed with meat within — the former being crisp and light on the exterior without the greasiness, while the latter came with a silky skin that is all smooth and slurpy with the meat providing a good bite.

Was being told by the folks behind the stall that they do have another outlet in Ang Mo Kio which led me to wonder if Sinful Roasts is actually affiliated with Sin Cuisine, which also previously had an outlet at Koufu @ Cathay Cineleisure given how their Roast Pork and Char Siew are executed. That being said, Sinful Roast does make for a good option for great roast meats in the area.
