King of Fried Rice (KOFR) is among those home-grown F&B delays that have actually ended up being so preferred (with financier rear of training course) in the current years that they have actually gotten to an overall of 25 electrical outlets islandwide.
Yes, 25. Huat ah!
From a standalone shop at Golden Mile Tower to an islandwide chain, proprietor Lester Li intends to reproduce his success in his most recent endeavor– MentaiKing.
His initial MentaiKing electrical outlet is opened up at a coffeeshop called City FoodCourt at 27 Bendemeer Roadway. It lies near Benefit Keng MRT terminal, alongside Bendemeer Market & & Food Centre.
You would certainly locate one more King of Fried Rice delay right here, so you can receive from both stalls under 2 various line up systems.
Unlike KOFR where they uses a selection of rice as the base, MentaiKing just uses garlic butter rice, that makes them various from the typical Japanese donburi (rice dish) making use of Japanese short-grain rice.
As their name indicates, MentaiKing concentrates on group’s favorite– mentaiko (spicy cod roe) mayo covered on his trademark garlic butter rice.
An even more structured food selection with just 4 various rice bowls are offered: Pork Cutlet ($ 8.90), Tiger Shellfish ($ 9.90), Beef Dice ($ 9.90) or Salmon ($ 10.90).
Each dish kindly showered with their house-made mentaiko mayo clothing, after that torched delicately (Aburi design) to include an additional touch of smokiness.
All rice bowls are additionally offered with pieces of Japanese rolled omelette as well as broccoli along with.
You can additionally ” zhng” your dish with extra Poultry karaage ($ 4.50), Gyoza ($ 4), Ramen egg ($ 1.80) as well as Grated parmesan cheese ($ 1).
My favourite is the Mentai Pork Cutlet Dish ($ 8.90), a homage as well as sequence to KOFR.
Making use of the exact same pork cutlets as KOFR yet skilled in different ways, each dish features 3 pieces of pork cutlets that hurt as well as juicy.
The density was ideal as well as gave the correct amount of textural bite, whereas the sweet taste from marinaded deep-fried pork equilibriums well with the spicy mentaiko mayo sauce.
The Mentai Tiger Shellfish Dish ($ 9.90) deserves a reference, which features 3 medium-sized fresh tiger shellfishes kindly rubbed with mentaiko Mayo on the top as well as torched externally.
Rather than offering their trademark rice with wok-hei, garlic butter rice is utilized.
While the garlic butter rice does not have much flavour by itself, its objective is to develop a comparison in flavours to ensure that the parts in the dish are not also abundant as well as overwhelming.
Making Use Of Danish Lurpak parsley, garlic as well as butter to fry their garlic butter rice, the rice has a crunchy as well as damp appearance that does not glob with each other.
The Mentai Salmon Dish ($ 10.90) includes a piece of Norwegian salmon leaning in the direction of the brittle as well as completely dry side.
Not fairly the appearance I anticipated, the mentaiko mayo sauce does aid to raise the total preference.
The Mentai Beef Dice ($ 9.90) advised of Taiwan evening markets, with torched beef dices as well as sauces showered on it.
The flavours have a tendency to be much more low-key as the only flavour is the a little zesty mentaiko sauced showered on the barbequed New Zealand rump dices.
Mentaiko enthusiast will possibly the MentaiKing principle, yet If you are a follower of KOFR, you will possibly be dissatisfied as the remarkable aromatic as well as wok-hei preference is not so solid right here.
