The mildly gamey slices added an assertive flavour dimension to the refreshing mixture of shredded fruits, vegetables and pickles. I’m ambivalent about the variant and reckon the resto's signature fruity version still trumps it all.
A splendid offering of hearth and home is Village Chicken with Pacific Clams, Mushroom & Carrot. Gently perfumed with some appetising Chinese wine, the lean toothsome chook was a joy to savour. The musky clams and rustic mushroom added layers of texture and flavour that lifted the ensemble to heady heights.
Since Si Chuan Dou Hua is a pork-free resto, the chef's ingenuity in serving Rice with Smoked Duck, Lotus Seeds & Black Mushroom deserves applause. The resultant taste closely resembled the real deal with crispy bits of salted fish giving the delicious grains its noticeably briny accent. We also love the subtly charred smokiness derived from the smoked duck slices.
Rectangular slices of White Nin Koh with Nestum Flakes wrapped up our CNY preview on an agreeably sweet note. The glutinous rice cake was a delight to sample and left us amply replete.
