One of those places that I have visited countless times! Have been dining at Babasan from their novena outlet to their circular road outlet! And I was back here again as part of my birthday celebratory meals! Hehe it is becoming an annual event! But somehow, always gravitating back to the same few orders - top favourites include this unagi garlic fried rice($20+). But urh on this particular day of visit, the garlic fried rice wasn't vv fragrant? And I just kept commenting to dining companion that it "tastes like tzechar fried rice"?! Lol. As in this garlic fried rice should have been more garlicky buttery fragrant and a notch above the average tzechar fried rice.
Tried the seafood mentaiko pasta ($18+) as well out of natural elimination as I try to get food of similar value when using Burpplebeyond's 1 for 1 to maximise savings 🤠will recommend to share this dish and not to eat it by oneself as it did get kind of jelat for me. And also, somehow I couldn't tel whether the scallops/clams were sandy or is it because of the mentaiko. It just had a very weird sandy/crunchy feeling which irked me and I ended up eating more of the salmon fish instead of the clams/salmons. So if you are afraid of having sandy seafood like me, get their other dishes instead! My initial plan was actually to try the mother of all wok porridge ($28+), but the price was too high and we didn't want to have 2 of the same dish. Used the mains+drinks 1 for 1 voucher here and got 2 canned drinks for the meal too!
