Photo 27-11-22, 6 25 31 PM

Red Lantern Live Seafood Restaurant officially opened in August this year and is situated within Sembawang Country Club. It offers more than 80 tantalising Asian seafood dishes, such as the signature Live lobster porridge, Chilli Crab, Squid, Kailan, BBQ Pork Ribs and more. The spacious restaurant is not enclosed and has a nice view of the golf terrace.

Golden Salted Egg Squid 4/5

We started our meal with the Golden Salted Egg Squid ($15). Deep fried to a crispy texture, the slightly chewy rings of squid were coated in a slightly spicy, creamy salted egg paste. It was an enjoyable dish that packed a nice salted egg flavour.

Dual Taste Kailan 3.8/5

A unique way to kick up a notch to the usual kailan dishes, the Dual Taste Kailan ($12) was served with a pile of crispy kailan leaf shreds and anchovies atop the crunchy Kailan stalks. It was an interesting twist that gave diners two different flavours and textures from one vegetable.

BBQ Spanish Pork Ribs with Red Wine 4.2/5

One of our favourite dishes is the BBQ Spanish Pork Ribs with Red Wine ($18). The pork rib meats were superbly fork tender and fell off the bone easily. It was also coated in an incredibly flavourful marinate before being smoked and glazed, packing a robust sweet-savoury flavour with a strong smoky aroma.

Fragrant Spicy Crab 4.2/5

As they had run out of Lobsters for the day, we settled for the Fragrant Spicy Crab ($88) instead, which did not disappoint. The wok-fried crab was tossed and covered in loads of chilli peppercorns and crispy fried garlic pieces, which brought out the lovely spicy fragrance, while the crab meat was thick, sweet and fleshy. Besides the Fragrant Spicy Crab, they offer choices of Chilli Crab and Black Pepper Crab as well.

Signature Fei Lou Noodle Soup 4.2/5

We started with the Signature Fei Lou Noodle Soup ($20), which comes with 3 half sliced Ang Kar prawns, fork-tender braised pork ribs and abalone in a slurp-worthy bowl of umami-rich prawn broth. The broth's rich flavour comes from the generous use of fresh prawn heads, slow-cooked for up to 10 hours. Unlike other prawn noodles stalls, the pork ribs here are braised, flavouring the tenderness enjoyment.

Signature Fei Lou Noodle Dry 4/5

There is also a dry version of the Signature Fei Lou Noodle Dry ($20), which is tossed in an addictive homemade hae bee hiam volcano chilli that complements the ingredients and the noodle.

The prawn noodle comes with an assortment of choice ingredients such as the Big Prawn Noodle ($16), Prawn Noodle (Small: $8, Big: $11), Prawn and Braised Pork Ribs Noodle (Small: $8, Big: $11) and Braised Pork Ribs Noodle (Small: $8, Big: $11). There are both soup and dry versions, and the choice of noodles include the usual suspects of Bee Hoon, Thick Bee Hoon, Kway Teow and Yellow Noodle to suit different palates.

Big Prawn Zuke 4.2/5

The Big Prawn Zuke ($16) is a unique offering on the menu, inspired by Ochazuke (rice porridge). It is served with fragrant fluffy Japanese rice topped with big succulent Ang Kar prawns and a crispy homemade fried rice cracker for a textural crunch. There is also the Prawn-zuke ($8) version which comes with vannamei prawns.

Braised Pork Ribs with Rice 4/5

I asked the owner which is his favourite dish on the menu, and he recommended that we try the Braised Pork Ribs with Rice ($6.80). It is not the Taiwanese-style version, but it is a delicious rice bowl with fork tender meat.

Springleaf Prata Place @ Springleaf Garden (Upper Thomson Road)

IMG_2244

When I used to work in Sembawang area, I always frequent Springleaf Prata Place for their crispy but yet fluffy in the inside prata. The popular prata place, Springleaf Prata Place has been a great supporter of Ultimate Hawker Fest for the past 2 years. Each year they will come up with a new innovative dish and introduced it in the menu. We are glad to have them back for the third year and this year creation is probably the best of all.

Ultimate Murtabak 4.2/5

For the first year, Springleaf Prata Place created the Ultimate Murtabak which is wrapped with tandoori chicken, portobello mushrooms and mozzarella cheese. This is one of the best murtabak I have ever eaten with the melted cheese just melted my heart with each bite.

MurtaBurger 4/5

The MurtaBurger is created for the second year's Ultimate Hawker Fest. A while lamb patty is cooked with the prata together with cabbage and mayonnaise. Another yummy prata dish that is available on the menu and well received.

Blaster Plaster 4.5/5

If you think Gunalan the owner has run out of idea for his third year participation, you will be blown away by his latest creation, Blaster Plaster Prata which comes with a piece of his signature crispy prata, a slice of turkey ham with thousand island sauce with a poached egg sitting on top dressed with Indian hollandaise sauce. I understand the special hollandaise sauce is made using masala curry.

The Blaster Plaster Prata will make its preview at the Ultimate Hawker Fest 2014 this coming Saturday. This is definitely the one dish I look forward to try at the event.
