Pestle & Mortar Society (548 MacPherson Road, tel : +65 6814 8822) is a local Muslim western food eatery. Tried their squid ink pasta. I'm gonna describe what made the squid ink sauce as rempah because that's what it felt like to me - a dry spice paste which wasn't so much a sauce. What's prominent with the flavour was lemongrass with some heat and not squid ink despite appearances. Was reminded of both actual sotong masak hitam and the sotong hitam pasta from Charr'd.
If anyone was wondering about those squids, the tentacles were chopped up and packed into the bodies.
