I've admired chef from Folklore days. This is fish but looks like this because it's deboned and crushed in a rempah. Although easy to eat, the texture was not refined, like homecooked food. Complex taste though.
I've admired chef from Folklore days. This was an interesting dish featuring wing beans, ginger flowers, peanut brittle. But I regret being adventurous hahaha. The wing beans were very raw and overwhelmed all the positives.
I've admired chef from Folklore days. This has even more spices - 15 - and it showed. The sauce was delicious. The beef cheeks had a good balance of lean and fatty.
I've admired chef from Folklore days. This curry has 11 spices, although the flavour profile wasn't very exciting. The chicken fell off the bones. Served with mantou.
Available from now to 24 February, one of my favourite Singapore heritage cuisine restaurants, Rempapa, has a lineup of 5 CNY-exclusive dinner dishes and we ordered 3 of them to try. Being a Teochew kia, the steamed red grouper is my favourite which comes with a tangy broth of salted vegetables cooked with chicken stock, and as the CNY greeting of 年年有鱼, this is a must order. The vegetable dish of stir-fried king is a Cantonese inspired classic of garlic chives, pickled celtuce and jumbo dried shrimp among the other ingredients. This dish is all about the wok hei and flavour. Lastly the mandarin orange steamed kueh comes in cute bite sized pieces for you to huat in the new year.
Pretty decent kuehs
Kueh ambon was very dark, it's pleasant cos it's not alcoholic at all and just mildly sweet with a nice soft chew.
The rosewater Kueh kosui is very creative and lovely as well. So soft
The rectangular kuehs were all quite standard
Kueh lapis was good, the layers all stuck tgt and was quite soft
The cake looking brown rectangle in the centre was very dry, so was the non fried green ball
The fried ball has a savoury shallot oil mung bean filling which was interesting
Overall this place is another of those restaurant style places without much flavour, very family style but srsly overpriced. No point visiting
