A friend of mine invited me to this Malaysian and Singaporean joint for an Instagram influencer event. The crew of us obnoxious food shooters sampled a bunch of tasty stuff and shot the living shit out of it for our websites and Instagram feeds. While many of the dishes may not look especially gorgeous, they certainly all tasted excellent.
Fried squid:
Fried okra:
Summer roll:
Fried soft shell crab: delicious.
Breads/Roti: really good.
Chicken and tofu satay skewers, chicken bites, egg rolls, fried noodle wrapper items and wontons: the red ones were the best.
Veggies:
Chopped chicken:
Drunken noodles: great texture, heat and flavors.
Amazing spicy fried soft shell crab soup: a lot of depth.
And one of my favorite things from this cuisine, Laksa. This was coconut curry laksa with squid and fish balls. Warm, comforting and really satisfying with the wide noodles.
Dessert in a take-out box!
There aren’t enough restaurants dedicated to this cuisine. Everything I tried was good, so I definitely recommend giving this place a visit or two.
