Christmas Platter

I went to Morganfield’s at Star Vista for a Christmas outing with three other friends. The waitress suggested we order their Christmas Platter. It did have a lot of food in the platter and we were all hungry guys so of course we ordered the Christmas Platter. There were three choices, ribs, seafood and turkey.

Morganfield’s ribs are to die for so of course we chose the ribs. They have half slab of all their flavours. We kicked start the platter with Christmas Caesar Salad with Prosciutto. The salad was pretty light and the vegetables were very crisp. The parma ham was good, practically melts in your mouth. The ribs were really good, the hickory bbq flavour is my pick for best flavour. Of course a nice meal must end with dessert, we had a dessert platter in this set meal. the dessert platter had three cakes and two scoops of ice cream. the cakes comprise of chocolate brownie, bread pudding and banana cake. All were served warm. The ice cream had vanilla and chocolate flavour. When you eat the warm cakes with the cold ice cream, it is indeed bliss.

"Sticky Bones" that'll stick in your tastebuds!!

Finally visited the open-concept Star Vista on a rainy Sunday noon, probably the only large-scale shopping mall in Singapore where you actually get wet indoors (i.e. don't visit Star Vista on a rainy day especially with roaring winds)!

Nonetheless, we braved the showers and were somehow 'blessed' by them when we chanced upon Morganfield's. Now, the Mister has always enjoyed his meats, proclaiming how he "can't live without them" ala Air Supply style. So imagine his glee when we learnt about Morganfield's signature "Sticky Bones" ribs - Hickory BBQ style! Lucky him. Except on top of that, Morganfield's Steak and Ribs Combo throws in a 150gm piece of sirloin as well. Even luckier him!

Although Malaysian in origin, one cannot help but feel transported into The Wild West upon setting foot in Morganfield's. Wooden beams that adorn the entrance and ceilings, signs that seem to make your Grandma feel young again plastered on walls, and lastly, wooden tables and chairs that complete the picture. Just look at the photo! Doesn't it seem inviting?

 Service was pretty good, perhaps due to the weather which might have left people snoozing at home (although we could have swore it was 12.30pm). We proceeded with our order: A Steak and Ribs Combo (no prizes for guessing), and a Grilled Ranch Chicken.

The Steak and Ribs Combo (38.90++), according to the Mister, was absolutely fabulous - he spared no effort stripping down the dish to its last morsel, devouring it cannibalistically. The half-slab serving of ribs were really tender (they just come apart with a gentle nudge of the knife!), yet still retaining their succulence - truly deserving of the name, "Sticky Bones" in that the taste sticks in your mind after the meal is long gone - magnifico! I found the Hickory BBQ sauce a tad sweet, but it harmonised well with the meat. The Mister was just devouring like no tomorrow.

 The combo's other half - a medium-rare sirloin - was more modest in taste, but equally succulent. To let diners enjoy the full natural flavours of the meat, Morganfield's does not provide sauces to go (unless you top up a little more $$ of course) with the steak. Being the meat-lover he is, no sauce is just as good for the Mister - if not better. The sides, too, were something to behold apart from the usual broccoli and fries you get in most Western diners in this country (of course, Morganfield's does fries too albeit with a little paprika twist to them not unlike Botak Jones'). What you'll see in the delectable photo is Minced Pork Chilli (and it's as spicy as it sounds, unlike more Westernised beef chilli) and Red-skin Mashed Potatoes - both of which were delightful complements to the meats in adding dimension to the latters' succulent textures.

 As for me? A nicely Grilled Ranch Chicken was on the platter (18.90 SGD++). The two chicken breasts were grilled to perfection, retaining their moisture (and juices evidently) but yet imprinted with that sizzling grilled taste. Needless to say, the Mister enjoyed his share of the chick too ;).

 All in all, it was an incredibly sensational meal serendipitously discovered that rainy noon - better if not comparable to Tony Roma's, the Mister exclaimed (and he's been there no less than 10 times, seriously). Capitaland card members will revel even more because of an additional 5 percent discount AND a 5 percent cash rebate (that's 10 percent just for being a card member, woohoo!)! For 57.80 SGD++ (2 pax), the joy of a good meal is never too expensive. In fact, it was rather affordable.

Kudos, Morganfield's!

A Christmas Platter for the Christmas
2012-12-19 1 views
Me and 5 of my girlfriends headed to Morganfield's at Star Vista for our Christmas Celebrations and dinner. We made reservations beforehand so we got really nice and comfortable indoor seatings. At first we wanted to order two full slabs of ribs to share between the six of us but the waitress kindly recommended that their Morgan's Christmas Ribs Platter ($129.90).

They also have two other platters, Turkey Platter ($139.90) and Seafood Platter($129.90), but we were there for their ribs so it was not a very difficult choice. The platter is for four people to share, so having six people, we thought we could add on more desserts later. When they served the Ribs Platter, we were alarmed by how large the platter was. I am certain my picture does not do justice about the size.

 This huge platter includes, a Christmas Caesar Salad with Prosciutto, Sausage Platter comprising of 4 sausages, Half Slab of Hickory BBQ Sticky Bones, Half Slab of Smoked Peppercorn Sticky Bones, Half Slab of Tuscan Baked Spicy Sticky Bones, side dishes like French Fries, Redskin Mashed, Corn on the cob and Pilaf Rice. They also have a yummy dessert platter which comprising of Warm Brownie, Warm Banana Cake and Warm Bread Pudding. There were also two scoops of ice cream - vanilla and chocolate.

In fact this restaurant serves three different flavours of ribs and all of which were on the platter. However we were all not very much into spicy food so the waitress offered to change our Half Slab of Tuscan Baked Spicy Sticky Bones to another Half Slab of Hickory BBQ Sticky Bones, which means we had a full slab of the Hickory BBQ Sticky Bones.

The Hickory BBQ Sticky Bones were the hot favourite among all six of us, the sauce they use is just sweet and sour with a tinge of BBQ spiciness. The ribs were very meaty, we could practically lift up the meat from the bones. It was so tender and juicy. The Smoked Peppercorn flavour was a little hot, tasted like black pepper sauce, went pretty well with the ribs.

In fact, it was kind of an overkill for the six of us cos the portion was too much. The mashed potato was very good, it was not watery at all, the consistency was just right to dig your fork in and scoop up a chunk. However, I found the corn a little dry and it somewhat sticks to your teeth. It did not have much buttery taste as well.

The Pilaf rice was very fragrant, has this faint buttery taste, too bad we were so stuffed with the ribs we could barelt finish the rice. The four sausages on the sausage platter had different flavours, and the cheese flavour was my favourite. The cheese actually squirts out when i sliced into it, and it gave me a shock but it was awfully delicious.

This was the aftermath of 6 hungery gals.
