Ginza Lion 120th Anniversary Set

Hello Hello! I'm back to share a new great deal to you.

Ginza Lion is celebrating their 120th Anniversary and they have launched an Anniversary menu. I gothe chance to try the Roast Beef Set which is suitable for 2 pax to share. The set cost $50 and it consist of 3 items, Seafood Salad, Ginza Lion Signature Roast Beef and Spaghetti Napolitan.

I mean, just look at that Seafood Salad. I am not angry at the generous amount of seafood on this salad. Especially coming from someone who does not like any intake of vegetables. Haha! It consist of Mussels, Squid, Clams, Salmon and Prawns. resting on a thin bed of lettuce, tossed in a savory sauce which was a little too salty for my liking. It got a little heavy after afew bites. However after squeezing some lemon juice over it, it made it really refreshing.

The highlight of the meal was definitely the Roast Beef Set with Fries. Ginza Lion uses High Quality Angus Beef from US grilled by far-infrared grill. The results? A Tender pink looking piece yet perfectly cooked. It's a pretty big piece and it is definitely suitable to share as there is still 1 more dish after this! The thick cut fries came with a Mentaiko Dip and it was delightful as well.

The last dish of the day is this Spaghetti Napolitan. It is served on a hot plate, resting on a bed of fluffy egg. The Tomato Based Pasta is very flavourful, definitely suitable for sharing with your young kids who love a good tomato base pasta. At some point it taste like a tomato ketchup pasta, maybe because it is Japanese Style? I really liked the juicy mushrooms and the sliced Sausages. It added different textures to the whole dish. And you Must Must try the fluffy egg at the bottom with the tomato sauce, it's so good. 

After the above dishes, me and my dining partner were stuffed!! 

Now, I got a good Lobang for you, yes you reading this now.

Thank you to J Passport for inviting me to try this special 120th Anniversary Menu from Ginza Lion.

TENGAWA HOKKAIDO WHITE CURRY

If you talk about Japanese Curry, most of us would think of the thick brown curry sauce. However, I just got to know recently that there is actually a Japanese White Curry! Tengawa is the first restaurant to bring in the special Hokkaido White Curry for all foodies in Singapore! I was so excited to try!

They offer Free Flow Marinated Cabbage as a starter. They have a variety of sauces for you, Tonkatsu sauce, homemade chilli sauce, chilli powder too! It's recommended that you try the katsu with the katsu sauce also, not just with the white curry.

I love their handmade signs, it really adds a personal touch to the whole dining experience.

1. Volcano White Curry Ramen Set ($16.80) / Ala-Carte $13.80 - The set consist of 1 Ramen, 1 Truffle Chawanmushi and 1 bowl of clam soup(refillable). The white curry is mixed with bonito broth, topped with iberico pork slices, onsen egg, onions, seaweed and korean spices. The truffle chawanmushi is to die for too!

OMG I tell you, I love the soup base, it has a slight sweetness to it which made it really palatable. And of course it is called the Volcano Ramen hence you see the pile of Korean spice chilli sitting on top of the Iberico Pork Belly Slices. Mix it up to get that spicy kick! Please adjust it to your own tolerance level ok?

2. Iberiko Loin Katsu with Rice Set - ($19.80), Ala-Carte ($16.80), Iberiko pork is also know as Spain Black Pork, famous for it's true pork taste with 1-2 cm of fats surrounding its red meat. The katsu has a nice bite and the coated breadcrumbs were not too oily. Each set comes with truffle chawanmushi and clam soup which is refillable! I love it because it is light and clear. I could not stop drinking it and it is AMAZING!

 The white curry tastes different from the usual brown curry as it has a slight sweet taste to it and it goes really well with the iberico pork katsu which was deliciously fried to a golden brown. Dip it with the mildly spicy white curry for a wonderful match. Alternatively, you may choose to pair it with the tonkatsu sauce that is available on the table too!

Overall I would totally recommend you to try the first and only White Curry Restaurant in Singapore!
