Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant, Race Course Road

Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant, Race Course Road

We found an easier to reach branch of Mr. Uncle & Auntie Kitchen called Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant (24 Race Course Road, tel : +65 9757 4400) a couple of minutes from Little India station. They share the same gaudy pink/purple lighting that look...Slaanesh-y. 

Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant, mango lassi

Mango lassi. Decent.

Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant, prawn 65

Pretty impressed by the deliciously savoury garlicky batter for their Prawn 65. These were freshly fried so they were piping hot and crunchy with a bit of meatiness inside. 

Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant, sardine ikan bilis satti sorru

Something was amiss from their sardine and ikan bilis satti sorru which I couldn't put my finger to until much later. It was missing the hard boiled egg which their shop at Norris Road included. There was also less sardine in it. Those aside, the curried claypot rice was still delicious.

There was an astounding variety of briyani on the menu.

The paneer butter briyani looked good on the menu. But we were all deceived.

While the rice was delicious, this wasn't what we expected at all. This was just paneer butter masala ladled over said rice. I suspect that they probably use the same briyani base for any type of briyani that is ordered.

Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant, gobi manchurian

Not a fan of their gobi manchurian. Some of the cauliflower were too greasy and soggy.

Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant, masala badam milk

Had a hot glass of masala badam milk which was nice. While it was sweeter than what I normally prefer, I couldn't say that I didn't enjoy it.

Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant, samosa

Samosas were pretty tasty. The skins were more bread-y textured than usual but that's no deal breaker.

The insides were curried vegetables, onions and potatoes.

Uncle & Auntie Family Restaurant, masala tea

Masala tea's okay, not outstanding.
