Curry & Curry

We were also impressed with the 𝗣𝗿𝗮𝘄𝗻 𝗣𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗻 𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 — delectably crispy and redolent of prawn paste — and 𝗙𝘂 𝗬𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝗴𝗴, which was expertly fried to produce a crispy exterior and fluffy interior, yet amazingly wasn’t soaked in oil.

We didn’t like the mediocre Stir 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗿 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝗡𝗮𝗶 𝗕𝗮𝗶 (it didn’t cost $91 but it was still too pricey for a neighbourhood eatery) and the disastrous 𝗦𝘄𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗦𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝗸. The latter consisted of a few sad-looking lumps and a bowl of bland gravy that was neither sweet nor sour.

As its name implies, the specialties at Curry & Curry are the curry dishes, and the Curry Fish Head would be definitely worth your while.

A decent zi char option near Kovan MRT Station is Curry & Curry. Although the dishes we tried were hit and miss, the 𝗖𝘂𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝗙𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗱 was phenomenal.

Fleshy and succulent, the meat of the fish was infused with the flavours of the spicy curry. The accompanying pieces of okra and tomato also soaked in the curry beautifully, making them more drool-worthy.

Saw many good reviews on the fish head here, but I came alone and was worried I could finish the entire fish head myself.

Decided to try their rendang chicken.

Very generous amount of rendang, and chicken was soft and tender.

Will return again for the fish head with a companion next time

The curry here has a thicker consistency and slightly towards the sour tangy side. It is not spicy at all and the fish is super fresh. The other dishes here are pretty decent too (at least for those that I’ve tried so far).

Can always do with delicious curry even when you are not even hungry.

This fish curry place is notorious for their long queues and well so - they serve some great fish curry, but their side dishes are also pretty good! I really like their ngor hiang as it’s packed full of ingredients. Unlike other places which may tend to pack it full of yam, Curry & Curry definitely doesn’t skimp on the meat and even has bits of prawn inside! Freshly fried and hot, this is perfect with fish curry drizzled on it.
