Cendol $2.90, Fried Kway Teow $6.90, Grilled Sotong $6.90, Grilled Stingray $7.90, Hot Yuan Yang $2, Assam Laksa $5.90. Total bill worked out to be $38.25 including gst and 10% svc charge. This was my order during my 1st visit to gurney culture. What brought me to this place was the Groupon voucher purchased by my partner for $15 for $30 worth of food. The name reminds me there is a similar restaurant at AMK, later which i found out that was Gurney Drive which serves non halal food and this is G
The assam laksa had very interesting white macaroni like noodles with plentiful of cucumber and pineapple. The sardine portion is a little though but thumbs-up for this dish.
The next 2 dishes for some reason was served way slower than the 1st 2, ended up waiting another 10min for it to be served. Both the sotong and stingray is like grill with sambal style but less spicy, i like. The portion again was a little small but i guess for $7-8 per dish, i can't complain too much.
. The cendol surprised us with the presentation as it looks like plain ice drowned in brown sugar syrup, too much coconut i must say for this dessert dish. I've also attached a photo of the premium cendol on the menu vs the normal one.
Finally i really like the yuan yang which i suspect has more coffee portion in it than tea. i was told the chef Mr Wong actually is the boss and he works in the kitchen himself, hopefully i get to meet him during my next visit. Will return to eat again, at least to try that assam fish head curry, looks good.
