Madam Kwan’s might be a well-known or even famous restaurant in Malaysia serving familiar delights such as Nasi Lemak within Malaysia, but how many people have actually heard of it in Singapore? For people like me, Madam Kwan’s opening in Singapore at Vivocity was an exciting moment as we now no longer have to go to Malaysia to actually try the widely-raved about dishes that are served there.The restaurant was nearly full but still had a couple of empty seats around when we visited on weekend lu
The restaurant was nearly full but still had a couple of empty seats around when we visited on weekend lunch. The dining area seemed pretty large and well prepared for big crowds, but I guess most of the hype of Madam Kwan’s opening was taken away by Jamie’s Italian, which definitely was the more preferred choice for hungry shoppers there.
Nasi Lemak comes with Achar, Ikan Billis, Chicken Rendang, Prawn Floss, half an egg and cucumbers. The Nasi Lemak had a moderate coconut taste in it, which was neither underwhelming nor overwhelming. It could still be tasted even with the Chicken Rendang eaten with it. The Chicken Rendang also had the right flavour of curry in it, with just enough spices to make it taste right. The level of spiciness may however be a bit too overpowering for some people. The Achar was fresh, crunchy and juicy and was sour enough without making one cringe. The Prawn Floss was somewhat like our usual Pork Floss but slightly blander in taste. The Ikan Billis, cooked with onions was pretty sweet yet spicy at the same time, which was pretty alluring.
Nasi Bojari comes with a fried chicken drumstick, Beef Rendang and another side. The rice tasted rather similar to turmeric rice and was pretty fragrant, while the Beef Rendang was less spicier than the Chicken Rendang but did not carry a heavy taste of game. The Fried Chicken Drumstick was the star of the Nasi Bojari, which was also available to order as a side. The skin was very crispy and the seasoning made it felt very savoury. This was not my dish, so after grabbing a piece of it I was really dying for more.
The Banana Fritters with Vanilla Ice-Cream was a nice dish to end of the meal, which was Goreng Pisang served with ice-cream. The Vanilla Ice-Cream was rather smooth, though it was one of the sweetest I ever had. It went well with the Banana Fritters, which was drizzled in a small amount of caramel to add a bit of sweetness. The Banana Fritters had a tempura-like skin which was very crispy and light, and the banana was pretty soft, fresh and sweet as well.For more photos and the full review, please visit: http://jiaksimipng.wordpress.com/2013/08/26/madam-kwans-vivocity/
