Satisfying Peranakan meal
2014-02-02 117 views
Re-visiting this place again since there was a Groupon offer. I think it is a pretty good deal as one can even use it during weekends.This time I ordered the Assam Fish Head ($34.90), Spicy Beef Rendang ($9.90) and Braised Homemade Spinach Beancurd ($12.90). The Assam Fish Head was not as good as I anticipated. The gravy was diluted (perhaps it is supposed to be) and bland. It tasted sourish but it lacked the rich Assam taste and it was not spicy at all (would prefer more zest of spiciness in it

There was plenty of fish meat but didn't taste as fresh sadly


The Beef Rendang, on a brighter note, tasted quite tantalizing. Tender Beef chunks stir fried in fragrant coconut milk, herbs and spices

 To round up our meal, despite feeling full already, there is always room for desserts haha

I tried the Cendol ($4.50), a combo of rich and smooth coconut milk with jackfruit, red beans, grass jelly and palm sugar. It was sweet, surely and sinful as well haha

A satisfactory meal except that the Assam Fish failed to live up to expectations >< But the Groupon deal was a very worthwhile one indeed

My friend and I had an impromptu dinner on Friday night. We decided to go with asian cuisine and here we are in Grandma’s Restaurant. The restaurant has the spacious interior design that gives customers’ a comfort dinning experience. My friend ordered Hokkien Noodles @S$10.90 which served egg noodles, fresh seafood and chicken, wok-fried together with dark soy sauce. We can taste the wok- taste from the servings. It reminds me of the hokkien noodles that I had in Kuala Lumpur.Nasi Lemak @S$10.90

 Nasi Lemak @S$10.90 which is one of the signature dish to order. Aromatic coconut rice served with chicken curry, sambal ikan bilis, hard boiled egg, achar and fresh cucumber. The portion is certainly a filling one as I can’t manage to finish all the ingredients by myself. The gravy was rich and aromatic taste. It is utterly addictive to have it with the coconut rice and chicken. Achar tasted normal as you can find from any stalls in my point of view.

 My friends also ordered 2 bottles of Kirin Beer with the total of S$9.60 only. There is a signboard banner hung outside the display of the restaurant showing the price down for 3 types of beers (Tiger , Kirin & Erdinger).

Total billable inclusive of service charge and GST was S$55.65. We were quite pleased with the serving time and the staffs are polite to us. However, I find it a bit costly for a plate of nasi lemak and hokkien noodles which I can get to taste them back in Malaysia. Neverthless, you are paying for the dinning ambience.
