Yes, this is essentially wok-charred rice - consisting of five different grains for varied texturality - with oyster omelette on top, with the distinctive and very aphrodisiacal oyster fragrance permeating the proceedings. When paired with the Hai Di Lao-esque garlicky/chilli padi/vinegar/sesame oil/soy sauce mix available for your dipping pleasure, this was fusion greasy hawker comfort at its finest. 4.1/5

The fried cauliflower, all crunchy and as meaty as a True Fitness free weights user, was coated in a sauce that was more char kway teow chilli-esque than gochujang. 3.8/5
The skewers were Superb! Each skewer has a special flavour and sauce.
The cocktails were also special and had a local and nostalgic twist! Super nice!
This hip gastropub at Dempsey puts a new spin on pub grub with Asian skewers and surprise, surprise, claypot rice. Decked out in metal and wood, the spacious industrial-chic establishment is just the place to kick back with drinks and bar bites at the end of a working day or week. Leave your drink in the hands of co-owner and veteran bartender KC's capable hands, and let him surprise you with a bespoke cocktail (price varies). Food wise, the hearty fare reflects Singaporean chef-owner Justin Foo's Asian roots. The skewers (from $4) bring the limelight to familiar flavours, as seen in the Chicken Thigh ($5) marinated in yellow curry, lemongrass and kaffir lime, and Beef Sirloin ($9) marinated in kecap manis and oolong tea. To really line the tummy though, go for the selection of claypot rice. The Mushroom Tea Rice ($9) keeps it simple but great with smoky oolong, shiitake and egg, or go luxe with the Oyster & Uni Rice ($28).
Avg Price: $40 per person
