Town Restaurant

Hotel food doesnt come cheap so we're thankful for our staycay dining credits! Otherwise, we probably wouldnt have splurged on this exorbitantly priced lobster nasi lemak at $38.00++. Then again, having tried this, the husband and I concluded that it's a dish we probably wouldnt mind paying for!

The lobster came with fried bits crumbly bits on the edges - a sign that it's been deep fried somehow with pretty good batter. The lobster meat retained its sweetness and was succulent as expected (for the price and the hotel's rep haha). Rumor has it that the Fullerton hotel executes their Asian food exceptionally well and I have to agree that the nasi lemak is nothing but ordinary. The rice was infused with strong lemak-ness, but without the oily or cloying feel. The husband polished off every bit without difficult (nor guilt). Despite not being a fan of rice or coconut rice for that matter, I reached out for a second mouthful because the nasi lemak rice + sambal chilli combi was simply too addictive. On the side, there was the appetite-whetting achar (tangy and crisp), as well as highly addictive fried peanut and ikan bilis. The sambal was sweet and spicy, and so so so good that we asked for not one but 2 more servings to have with the rice. The only 'meh' item was the egg which also expectedly paled in comparison to the taste of its counterparts on the plate. Considering 1 whole lobster dish is easily priced at $38-$45 ++ at mid tier food establishments, it's a pretty easy decision to part with $38.00++ for the lobster nasi lemak pictured here!

Aptly themed and named, Celebrate ‘Home’ with Town Specials, pictured is the six-course ‘Nyonya Reunion’ family sharing menu ($180) that is good for 4 pax and this heritage-inspired feast features the aromatic spices and bold flavours of our local cuisine.

In this feast, you are going to get a do-it-yourself Peranakan popiah and kueh pie tee set so that everyone in the household can have fun making your own spring roll or pastry cup. There is also a large portion of nasi panggang of fragrant rice wrapped and grilled in banana leaf and to go with the rice are accompanying dishes such as Peranakan satay babi goreng (pork belly cooked in a housemade spice chilli paste, buah keluak and lime leaves), udang masak lemak nenas (king prawns cooked in a pineapple and coconut gravy which has a nice balance of tanginess and creaminess) and Nyonya chap chye (the quintessential braised seasonal vegetables in a fermented bean sauce). To end off the meal on a high, the feast comes with The Fullerton’s Signature Ondeh Ondeh Cake (500g), which absolutely stole the show for me as the light and fragrant layers of pandan sponge paired so well with the sweet gula melaka and freshness from the crunchy coconut shavings.
