HAINANESE CURRY RICE
"This dish looks like a mess, but it's delicious. There are lots of ingredients, from pork chop to braised pork belly. The curry isn't too spicy and is more flavourful when combined with the braised pork sauce."

LEMON TART WITH BASIL ICE CREAM
"Unlike most lemon tarts, this is done up like a mille-feuille. The slightly sweet lemon curd and crumbly puff pastry with basil ice cream is surprisingly delicious."

TARO PANCAKE STACK
"I love taro, especially the candied yam topping and taro bits that are studded in the pancakes. These give the dish a refreshing crunch. However, the pancakes were too limp for my liking."

PITAN TOFU
