Singapore Food Special - 1



Super overdued post, I have created this picture collage long long ago when in SG for summer hol but just never got on to put a blog up.

Anyway, new food discovery in Singapore - my favourite japanese haunt is now The Central (just above Clarke Quay MRT). It has the highest number density of japanese restaurants per sq feet, and mind you, many of them are actually quite decent.

Featured in this post - Ma Maison @ Central. #03-96, Singapore 059817.

It's the very typical japanese western food of two categories - Omu-rice (omelette rice) and demi-glace sauce based dishes like hayashi rice, japanese-style hamburger, hayashi omu, steak in demiglace etc etc.

Went for the lunch special a couple of times consecutively in one week since Aunt Jas loved that place and not to mention it was only $12.50 for a SET lunch. Well to be honest, we did enjoy the food there a lot and the ambience was good. They have custom-made matching chinas for serving and they looked so pretty on the flowery Cath Kidston inspired tablecloths. Not to mention that there is also a little lamp on each table. The staff were very helpful and especially this young part time guy who was overly enthusiastic with his very local singlish explanation of the menu - not a bad thing at all since he was very efficient!

To sum up, the clam chowder soup was the best I have tasted in Singapore, if you are a fan of eggs and if you crave omu-rice in beef stew, you should not skip this one. To top it off, the brownies are buy one get one free with DBS/POSB card promotion. Not to be missed are also the daily-changing hamburger menus, I had mine on a hotplate (as in picture) and it was absolutely fantastic as well!


*drooooooling* we need some of these japanese western food in London.....
