At first glance, this contemporary Cantonese restaurant in Holland Village resembles yet another hipster cafe, thanks to its striking blue framed doors and edgy graphics. But look beyond that and you'll find some innovative Chinese fare like Chilli Glazed Fried Fermented Bean Paste Chicken Wings ($8), Golden Sand Corn with Salted Egg Yolk ($4.80) and Hakka Crispy Kurobuta Pork Belly ($18). Unconventional dishes, but so tasty. The 97-seater restaurant conveniently located beside Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao is the perfect spot to bring your family for Sunday lunch, or when you need to accommodate a large group of friends.
Avg price: $25 per person

4.5 munchies: Marinated with savoury fermented bean paste, I loved how these deep-fried chicken wings stayed super crispy even after being glazed with the chilli sauce that had a combination of spicy, sweet and sour flavours. Tender and juicy on the inside, these wings have got to be the crispiest I've eaten yet!
I'd also highly recommend a pint of Gambler's Gold (golden ale brewed by Hong Kong Beer Co.) to pair with these lip-smacking bites.
This was a hosted meal by Full of Luck Club; many thanks to Bless Inc. Asia's warm hospitality and invitation!
