The squid ink paella here was superb. It had (almost) a 1:2 ratio of squid to rice grains and the bite-sized squids were so tender that you wouldn't get tired chewing them. The briny squid ink gave the much needed wetness to bring the different elements together. If you are looking for a nice romantic first-date-kind-of-meal, the squid ink might be a turn-off, but trust me, it was worth the black stains on your teeth and lips. Portion might not be that fulfilling for most people but then again, it's tapas, so you need to pace yourself out throughout the meal. Tbh I was already 3/4 full while having this paella.

Can't help thinking back on this superb aburi broccoli salad we had during our last visit 2 months ago... I never thought I'll ever put "broccoli" and "yummy" together side by side in my life, but this was so exceptionally good - I think it's the tangy mayo that got me hooked. Are we going to order this again tonight? 😏

Opt for the savoury option for waffles instead of the usual dessert kind. Additional Plus point would be the crispy ,marinated shrimp paste flavour boneless chicken leg. However once is enough! And it's always better to share the calories with a buddy.

Yum yum. A must get if you are at Sin Lee for lunch/dinner. The sweet potato fries are well-cut and are of relatively even size and so they are all evenly fried, which I think is something that's very important for fries. The salted egg sauce is also well-made - creamy with adequate salted egg aroma without being gelat. It leans slightly to the sweet side though, so you might be disappointed if you prefer the savory kind.

Sin on sin at sin lee foods. Just when you thought waffles can't get any more decadent, here comes one slathered with durian paste. #BurppleXChope

Tried the avo-ca-dukkah ($15) and the pulled pork Benedict ($15). Glad to say both were absolutely delicious with perfectly poached eggs that spewed over our toasted sourdoughs like a beautiful volcanic eruption. The pulled pork was definitely well marinated and accompanied by Apple slaw that cut through the sweetness. The avocado toasts were a little on the salty side tho. Still, perfect bench spot!

Uni Pasta ($28++)
Homemade Uni Sauce Pasta with Fresh Sea Urchin

This was something unique- it did not disappoint. The sauce was epic umami, & the uni was uber fresh. I wish the pasta were slightly more al dente. But seeing as to how it wasn't soggy (just me being fussy), I'd actually still order this again.

Gyu Katsu - a beef cutlet deep-fried till it’s crispy on the outside yet still medium rare on the inside.

Got this delivered to the office for lunch - could not be more satisfied!!! Love love love this dish at brunch in Lolla, so seeing this on the delivery lunch menu was just perfect. A tad pricey but a true treat. Think generous chunks of crab and melty Emmenthal and mozzarella...
