I've been to Char a couple of times for their signature char siew, I love it but now this is my new favourite here.

It's about that phenomenal aromatic smokiness which came from lychee wood, achieved by slow roasting this with that wood and charcoal for hours under low heat to render the fats and keep the meat juicy. And yes, that meat was sweet and juicy, as I understood that it was marinated in their secret sauce for 2 days. I also like to that this cut is not as fat, yet moist enoigh and firm to the bite.

Available only during dinner only. They only serve 10 portions per day so each table can only order one portion. Reservations for this would thus be highly recommended.
