Food
The Gyu Don signature meets the mark for its price point. The beef was well cooked, and maximized the potential of the beef. However the marination and the sauce lacked depth and finesse and tasted pretty much like generic mayo and yakiniku sauce, keeps you wanting more nonetheless when mixed with the rice.
After using Entertainer 25% off, it’s only $11.25/bowl so its affordable but I personally won’t return as the food is unimpressionable.
For $30+ per pop, this better be good... and it was!
The freshness and umami of the caviar and scampi, paired with the crisp texture of the bruschetta in one amazing mouthfull!
Many restaurants try to do the Truffle Capellini dish but none really gives as much impact as the Da Luca’s version.
Legendary in its reputation, I went for the full portion which was sure to fill you up. They don’t scrimp. Half portion will be just nice for you to leave room for other dishes.
Distinguished by its starchy minced meat gravy, this is definitely the sinful version of your traditional Yong Tau Foo with its meaty sauce pairing very well with the deep fried items. The bee hoon also goes really well almost like a lor mee with the meat sauce, complementing the heaviness of the sauce.
Uninspiring food that had interesting concepts but the execution was lacklustre and unimpactful.
Great service have to say.
1. MISO BUTTER CORN - FAILSAFE BUT EXPECTED TO BE WOWED
2. FLOWER CLAMS SAKE SOUP - HEARTY, TASTY AND SEAFOODY âś…
3. TIGER PRAWN MENTAIKO
- LACKS PUNCH ❌
4. SAKURA EBI CAPELLINI - UNINSPIRINGLY TASTED LIKE FRIED YEE MEE WITH HEI BEE (Fried Noodles with Dried Shrimps)❌
5. ANGUS SHORTRIBS - NICELY COOKED VANILLA DISH âś…
~ Whats the opposite for a bang for your buck?
Must try is the Curry Mussels!
Ordered extra Mantou to soak up the delicious rich gravy that is a mix between Chinese and Indian curry style.
I believe them when they claim their seafood is freshly farmed from the kelong, because I taste the freshness and “natural-ness” of the seafood.
Even though it is no longer on Burpple Beyond, I will come back to Scaled!
Pretty pricey but fulfils quality and wholesomeness. ($12-$14 for a standard portion)
*Based on what I have tried*
Good and Interesting Picks:
- Mashed Purple Sweet Potatoes
- Baby Corn
- Maple-glazed Tempeh
- Button Mushrooms
Everything else is pretty alright.
Avoid:
- Salmon Fillet (paid +$2 more to get dried out salmon)
- Garlic and Chili Olive Oil (not much taste and literally oil)
I am not too sure what is supposed to be the signature or theme of NY Night Market.
Well, to me it was just very status quo black pepper steak and mac n cheese. Nothing to shout about. Only interesting thing were the “avocado fries” that came as a side
Quality is there with the unagi, truffle and rice.
Only downside is the slightly small portions for $12.90
$8 for one smal claypot of frog’s legs (spring onion & ginger style or kung pow chili style), reckon theres 2-3 frogs in there.
Kinda regretted getting the Deep Fried Large Intestines ($6.50) because they were hard, possibly due to refrying. Recalled they were good thats why I ordered.
Get the Wagyu top up its really going to be worth it!
Main of the set lunch menu, fall-off-the-bone ribs with a nicely caramelized sauce. Delicious and tasty but would’ve liked more “cocoa” which I couldn’t really find
