Welcome to Siglap.

The outlet was located just across the bus stop. There’s both indoor air con and outdoor alfresco dining area. As it was rather hot that day, I decided on indoor which was a welcome relief from the hot blast outside. The restaurant had a rather traditional look with photos and products framing the walls. The restaurant had a relaxing feel with soft music in the background. Service was smooth and swift. The menu had quite a wide variety with a section on homemade pasta where one could customize the pasta dish. There’s also a wine list available too.

I was served with iced water and toasts with olive oil dip which were complimentary. Food was served quite fast. The cannelloni ricotta e spinach (S$25.90++) which was a rare find on the menu, was well cooked and tasty. The serving may looked small but it was just nice for me.

The coconut mike is strong and tasty

The curry is tasty and is a mixture of sweet and sour

FRIED YONG TAU FOO has got to be one of the most sinful yet delicious things ever 😍😍😍 used to eat this at i12 katong all the time before the stall there closed down. going to eat it again, it was a little pricier than i remember… but the quality definitely didn’t dip. love the noodles in the minced meat & mushroom sauce… idk how it can be so simple yet so so flavourful 🥲 9/10!!

Komplit your pork cravings by having 3 types of pork all in the Babi Komplit Special. It comes with full works of house speciality minced pork, char siew, roast pork, fried wanton and vegetables, served with a side soup and steamed wanton.

They were generous with the amount of lard given in this bowl. The star of the show has got to be the al-dente noodles tossed in pork lard oil and sauce. The oil gives the noodles a robust slick of flavour and springy texture with every bite. The roast pork is nothing to shout about but I love the tender soft honey BBQ char siew for its good chew and bite without being overly fatty 》$9.88

Nasi Campur Babi is basically a medley of pork selection in one dish where they ‘campur’ everything into one plate. It is their version of pork mixed rice that includes homemade dishes like BBQ pork, roast pork, sweet pork satay, braised pig ear, siomay (better known as siew mai), soy egg and fried prawn beancurd roll. We are also given a choice between jasmine white rice or fragrant chicken rice.

The rice comes pretty fragrant and well-executed with a strong aroma of Hainanese chicken rice that we are familiar with. The fragrant chicken rice complemented the sweetness of the pork and balanced out the smoky flavour of the BBQ meat. The roast pork meat was more on the lean side but lost its crispiness on the skin. My favourite out of the bunch was the char siew. It was well marinated, sweet on the outside and provided a good chew/bite without being overly fatty 》$12.88

From TBB
The butter croissant (flaky yet airy) and hot mocha coffee (rich and creamy) simply for a deliciously indulgent breakfast combo that will satisfy the taste buds.
Go early for seats. ✌️

Poached eggs, grilled halloumi, spinach, tomato salsa, hummus, hollandaise. Okok, Abit oily, they have other better dishes.

Pork Rack, grilled baby cos, kipfler potato, bone marrow sauce. Meat is super soft, goes well with their sauce as well. Not salty.

Some dishes are excellent (beef, carabinero croquetas, churros), some dishes quite ‘meh’ (gambas, cochifrito), most dishes are good without being memorable (paella, regular croquetas). Very friendly service. This is more a 3.5 than a 4, but it’s probably one of the better Spanish restaurants here. Singapore will always mourn the closing of Catalunya, one of the better Spanish eateries in the world!
