Revisiting the Red Sparrow

Red Sparrow, Dempsey

We enjoyed the food from Red Sparrow from the last visit. So we came back.

Red Sparrow, seafood fried rice

The restaurant whips up a deliciously flavourful seafood fried rice. The portions aren't big for what they charged but there's scallops, some crab meat and shrimps in it. A little greasy but big on flavour. Would eat it again.

Red Sparrow, bun cha

Their bún chả featured pretty impressive grilled and charred meatballs and pork belly from Berkshire pig. Not something traditionally found in the streets of Vietnam I'm sure but the pig they used isn't the talking point here. The sweet glaze the used was kickass. It even made the broth taste like spicy bak kwa. Would have loved for this to have more vegetables and rice noodles though.

Red Sparrow, xào bông kim châm

Xào bông kim châm - stir fried daylily flower. Tasted leek-y with a hint of bitterness along with a deliciously savouriness from the sauce they concocted for the stir fry. One of those things to be had with steamed white rice.

Red Sparrow, brooklyn lager

Guess what they have on tap here?
