Not too long ago, this spot that Famous Treasure (#02-28 Capitol Piazza, 13 Stamford Road, tel : +65 6881 6668) occupy belonged to Four Seasons Roast Duck. Guess that didn't last long. Here's hoping that this one does better because we kinda liked the food here.
These sour plum marinated cherry tomatoes were chilled and refreshing. Every table had one of these.
Like the tomatoes, every table appeared to have a dish of their sambal belachan too. This was pretty good. It wasn't masochistically spicy and had a good amount of perky citrus that made it dangerous.
Tried one of their signature dishes which was squids and lady's finger stir fried with chinchalok. Not really getting the chinchalok from them but it was still a delicious stir fry that was both tangy, spicy and savoury. Texture of the squids were superb.
The salty sauce from the stir fried Chinese romaine with shrimp paste was also dangerously good with steamed rice. I know because I finished a bowl of the rice with this and the previous dish before the next one was served.
Never had green curry fish head before. This tasted neither Thai nor Chinese. Well, maybe it could pass off as Peranakan. The curry was creamy and nutty and didn't have much heat. It was good though. The constant heat seemed to caramelize the curry and made it more flavourful as it went along.
Ahhh...the rice. Second bowl went with the green curry.
The sweet ending was chilled double boiled hashima with red dates. This was much better than the last one we had. After the gravy soaked rice, three glasses of Asahi and then this, I was ready to burst at the seams.
