Big Bad Wolf @ Tanjong Katong

I have not been back to Tanjong Katong for quite a few years and it seems like a number of new restaurants have established along the stretch of Tanjong Katong Road. I ended up at Big Bad Wolf for my dinner.

The Big Bad Wolf Burger comes with fresh all beef patty, tomatoes, onions, lettuce, caramelized onions and special sauce. Love the caramelized onions on top of the beef patty.

What best way to enjoy a beautiful burger with a bottle of beer. Big Bad Wolf has a range of Lindemans Fruit Beers which are refreshing lambic beers brewed with real fruits. They have Apple, Kriek (Cherry Flavour) and Pecheresse (Peach Flavour).

Lindemans Apple Beer 4.2/5

Big Bad Wolf does not have an extensive menu but the kitchen does come up with different daily special. You can ask the waiter/waitress or refer to the chalk written board. Besides the burger, I also tried their daily special, Lamp Chop and Chilean Mussels.

The Lamp Chop was a disappointment. It was bland and sides were boring.

Lamp Chop with Roasted Garlic and Cauliflower 3.5/5

However the Chilean Mussels were excellent. The creamy sauce was a perfect match for the big and firm mussels.

Chilean Mussels 4.5/5

Tamako Meal @ Casuarina Road

Tamako Meal serves hearty and comfort Japanese food. This homely restaurant at Casuarina Road has been around for more than 10 years. I used to frequent this humble establishment when I was working at Sembawang Airbase.

The Tonkatsu Curry was nothing to wow about but definitely gave a home cooked feel. The Tonkatsu was interestingly sliced but in a pathetic way. Nevertheless, the Tonkatsu was moist and tender.

Tonkatsu Curry 4/5

The Potato Salad is a best try by many reviewers. I have to agreed with double thumbs up.

Potato Salad 4.2/5

The grilled Unagi was well marinated and fat. Love the way it was served with 2 runny egg yolks.
Breaking the egg yolks and mixing together with the rice and the sweet sauce coated each grain nicely with sweetness.

The Saba Fish was fresh and grilled perfectly with a nice crisp to the skin.
