Was really excited to try Godmama after reading all the rave reviews about it! We ordered set menu C ($88+) for our Mother’s Day celebration. Opted to collect from the restaurant - there was some delay, but that’s understandable given the high volume of orders. The staff had great service recovery :-)
For appetisers, the set came with emping belinjo keropok, fried wings, ngoh hiang and otah. The crackers were slightly bitter from the belinjo, but really addictive and we quickly chomped through the box. The mid wings, fried in a spice mixture, were extremely tasty. Particularly enjoyed the ngoh hiang, which had a generous bite of prawn & minced meat in crispy beancurd skin. The otah was another favourite with its spicy kick and abundant mackerel!
The rice was served with achar. For mains, we had ayam buah keluak, babi asam and chap chye. The chicken was very tender and fell apart easily! The black nut flavour wasn’t very evident in the gravy, but it packed a tangy spiciness. The pork belly melts in your mouth and the tamarind comes through cleanly, with a sour tinge characteristic of asam. The chap chye had a great mix of vegetables in a rich broth.
The set also came with their signature pulut hitam panna cotta! Greatly enjoyed the food - would love to have a meal at the restaurant when restrictions ease 🌟
