Pecori Japanese Egg Restaurant, Liang Court

Pecori Japanese Egg Restaurant

If anyone was wondering at the peculiar name of the place (177 River Valley Road, #B1-50 Meidi Ya Food Court, Liang Court Shopping Centre, tel : +65 6339 1111), it's a kitchen counter adjacent to Ryoshi Sushi Ikeikemaru that specialises in Japanese omu rice.

Their soup of the day was a potato soup. It was creamy and had bits of cubed potatoes in it. Simple and comforting it was.

There were three basic sauces for the omu rice at Pecori. The mentaiko sauce was brimming with flavour of the seasoned pollack roe on a base of a rich creamy sauce. The richness from the sauce did weigh down after a while, but something about its taste kept us spooning mouth after mouth of the eggs, rice and sauce; shovelling them continuously into our faces.

The demiglace sauce tasted pretty ordinary, but their accompanying hamburg was very good. It was a thick ball of a meat patty that was stewed in a pot of gravy. The meat was not seared the least on the outside and had a bite texture akin to Chinese steamed pork patties with beefy flavour was very pronounced. This was possibly the beefiest Japanese hamburg I've tasted so far.


Believe it or not, Pecori has fries that one can order on the side to stack more carbs onto the already carbo laden omu rice plates. This was probably little issue to the Japanese teenaged kids that were sitting beside us, wolfing both rice and fries down like they hadn't eaten for a long while. Eating like they did for lunch for us was simply planning for a nap to happen. But their soft, soy sauce butter flavoured fries which was probably not even French fried were very addictive. So addictive that we wiped an entire bowl out with relative ease even though there was already so much rice.
