[CLOSED] Legend Seafood – Hearty Food at Pocket Friendly Price [MEDIA INVITE]

Legend Seafood

Legend Seafood is a new Zi Char in the Bishan dining scene. With abundance of zi char shop in the heartland, Legend seafood must have have some signature dishes on top of other staple zi char dishes to stand out above the rest of the competition.

Some of the dishes that received our seal of approval are:

Fried Clams with Soup ($12). Clams seems to gain back its popularity, as we have tasted more and more clams inspired dishes in the heartland. Fried in a soupy style, the fresh clams are infused with Chinese wine delivering aromatic and robust broth. Wolfberries are added to the dish for sweetness plus the cilantro give the dishes a touch of freshness.

Fried Clams with Soup 

Deep Fried Egg With Oyster In Sambal Sauce ($10). The deep fried egg is crisp and fluffy, provided a solid pillow to soak up the sauce. The oyster is plump, while the sambal sauce provide the kick and remove any unpleasant smell in the oyster. It might not the Healthier Choice, but it sure is delicious.

Barbecued Prawns ($16). Big size tiger prawns are used for this dish, perfectly barbecued, and coated in sweet bbq sauce, similar to “Kecap Manis” (Indonesian Sweet Soya Sauce). The texture of the prawns are springy yet succulent, while the sweet sauce is just an invitation to dig into more rice.

[CLOSED] Jalan Kayu The Prata Cafe – Prata for any time of the day

Tanjong Katong Road are known to foodies as one of the upcoming happening place for dining in the south east area. This road is practically buzzing during lunch and dinner and finding a car park space is an issue. As this area only serves lunch, dinner and supper crowd, it is actually quite a challenge to find a place to have breakfast.

Fortunately, Jalan Kayu The Prata Cafe is one of the establishment that open early on the day we need some early grub. They open around 10am, while other eatery open from 11am onwards.

So how is the food? The prata here is actually quite good. It is thin, fluffy, good serving size and the best part it is not oily. They did not overcook the egg prata ($1.40) and my plaster ($1.40) have the egg yolk oozing out of it. (plaster is kosong prata + sunny side up fried egg on the outside like a band aid). While the curry has a robust flavour into it, as it was probably from last night stock. To be honest, the best curry for prata is an overnight curry, because the flavour is just fantastic and robust.

The kopi-C and ice lemon here are considerably good. However, they can be extremely generous with their sugar. Service is a bit slow, but price is very reasonable considering they are air-conditioned establishment. The plain prata will set you back $0.90 while the egg prata and plaster are $1.40 each. Kopi-C is $1.30 and Ice Lemon Tea is $1.60. In total,we spend only $8 for breakfast.

Overall, this place serve a simple Singaporean no fuzz breakfast. Although it open a bit later than other prata shop, but they serve a good grub. We don't mind coming back for more in the future. Cheers!!
