Miam Miam is a fusion French-Japanese restaurant with two branches - one at Westgate and another at Bugis Junction. On my pursuit to finish all the restaurants on Westgate's directory (nah I kid. There are too little fun eating places in the west, really), Miam Miam is the choice for a dinner place!The Riz Noir Black Risotto ($17.80++) was more prominent on the menu but I was kinda averse to it because I don't want to walk around with black teeth (thereafter I found that it didn't stain at all)!
The Riz Noir Black Risotto ($17.80++) was more prominent on the menu but I was kinda averse to it because I don't want to walk around with black teeth (thereafter I found that it didn't stain at all)! Pride versus gluttony as sins... I give in to gluttony. Turns out I loved this dish a lot! Using Japanese rice to make this savoury, sea-salt flavoured squid ink risotto, I love how flavourful it is alongside juicy fat prawns, calamari and scallops! The well-cooked omu egg blanketed across the risotto was also a delightful touch. I was quite surprised by the portion though, it was kind of ridiculously small because the bowl was so shallow! :/ Well, time to learn how to make this by myself.
The Miam Miam Spaghetti ($15.80++) pales in comparison although it was considerably more generous in portion. The linguine was laced with garlic oil-based sauce and resembles a little like hokkien mee, served with bacon slices, luncheon meat/sausages, egg, eggplant, tomatoes and spinach. It feels more Chinese than French or Japanese though. I found it slightly oily than ideal. Overall, the experience at Miam Miam is still great even though the mains are a little pricey for their portion and taste for the Riz Noir Black Risotto and Miam Miam Spaghetti respectively. It's good for a one-time experience.
