First time here at Hamburg Steak Keisuke and I was surprised to see how popular it is! We were fortunate enough to get seats after ~20-25 minutes (as we were waiting for everyone to reach). What I love about this place: every set meal comes with a free-flow salad bar (>20 items!) and egg. Do control yourselves at the salad bar as it does fill you up. The egg station, also free-flow, has a chef that makes various egg dishes (delicious too) upon order. We tried the omelette with mentaiko sauce, tamago, sunny side up, and the creamiest scrambled eggs everš!
The hamburger steak was succulent and oooozing with cheese. Youāve got four sauces to choose from: original, teriyaki mayonnaise, demi glace, and oroshi ponzu (grated radish and citrus soya vinegar). I went with the ponzu sauce as I figured it would help me cut the richness of the meat+cheese.
Overall, the dish did impress but a tiny change that I would have preferred was for the dish to have a more savory hit. I found it a little too sweet which might not have gone well with the richness of the steak and cheese.
It is definitely worth a try but please go there EARLY with your FULL party so that youāll get seats ASAP!
Generous serving for just $5. I ordered one with kuay teow instead of the thick bee hoon people usually order. The broth is not too heavy, beef cubes are tender, and the tripe is cooked properly without a gamey taste. Dried chilli on the side for an extra kick, and a vinegary chilli sauce that refreshes your palate. Overall, itās a dish that is worth seconds!
Discovered the dark, again, when I tried their waffles along with a scoop of 80% dark choc and another scoop of salty peanut butter ice cream. I have to praise the waffle for being crispy outside and really fluffy inside. It is quite light, and not very dense. The dark chocolate ice cream was still as good, but just a little sweet for me, and the salty peanut butter ice cream could be a new favourite as I liked the mix of sweet and salty. There are a number of toppings you can choose from, and we had the caramelized almonds. Any ice cream day is a happy day.
Itās quite pricey for a bowl of Kolo Mee but theyāre pretty generous with their ingredients! Noodles are good - also because Iām a bigger fan of such noodles as compared to the yellow ones (the alkali taste). Sauce is flavorful, albeit on the sweeter side and Iād be happier with something more savory. We had a side of fried wantons too, but it might have been fried for a little too long.
碳ē¤é»åē§. I believe they are from Bishanās Kim San Leng coffee shop (Bishaners please enlighten me!). I love how the noodles (tiny bit of alkaline taste) are well-coated with their sauce, which is not too salty or oily. Char siew slices are tender and not overly sweet. Wantons were passable. Oh and thereās free flow of lard too. Not too difficult to find: #01-15 at Clementi Market and Hawker Centre. Give it a try!
Flamed grilled steak, arugula, lettuce, roasted broccoli, roasted sweet potato, hummus, tzatziki (so much love for this), parsley, Greek vinaigrette, sunflower seeds. Order a grain bowl so that it fills you up! Steak was medium-rare (the chef and I agreed that medium-rare was the limit steaks could NEVER go beyond); it was perfectly cooked. The bowl had individual flavors that were distinct but melded together in perfect harmony. It is also affordable, convenient, and at a good venue for those working around that area.
What can I say..Iāve had my doubts about ramen in chicken broth but this restaurant proved me wrong. So much flavor and ingredients (you get a good sized chicken drumstick too) packed into a bowl of š goodness. Itās a generous bowl so skip a meal before having this. Every diner is given a choice to customize their meal, so I chose to have a normal tasting broth, less oil, and of course, hard noodles (might do extra hard on my next visit). Eggs and sprouts are complimentary and those are already on the table.
Buttermilk waffles, jalapeƱo beef ragu, bacon, sunny side up egg, mozzarella, tortilla chips, fruit salad, greens. Youāve got a good combination of spicy beef ragu (could have a little more acidity) with bacon AND mozzarella cheese in it (how can you not love it?!), buttermilk waffles that are slightly softer than your usual waffles, and a perfectly cooked sunny side up egg.
This is by far the most tender piece of tonkatsu Iāve ever had. Panko breadcrumbs gave it a really nice crunch outside and the pork chop inside is juicy. Believe me when I say that you donāt need much effort to cut through the meat. It is slightly pricey because I chose the best grade of pork they have in the restaurant. Nevertheless, good stuff.
Geotag is Suntec City but photos are at Changi Airportās T3 Departure. I ordered two versions: an original dough/custard filling, and one that is matcha dough/red bean filling. Iām a bigger fan of the custard version as the filling is generous, and itās a good proportion of dough:ratio. Also, the custard isnāt too sweet which is perfect for someone like me. It is slightly pricier than the normal ones you see, but still good. Be prepared to wait if the queue is long!
Ordered a medium-sized portion. Sorry other laksas, but Iām team @janggut_laksa. Broth is not overly thick, and of course you can enjoy the dish with just a spoon.
Steamed chicken, roast pork, greens, and an egg. Love how the grains of rice are not mushed together - great texture too. Chicken is tender, roast pork was a little tough. Chilli was the bomb as it was rather well-balanced and had a reaaaally good kick!
