Slake Restaurant Siglap: one of the best bistros on the East Coast 2023

Slake Restaurant Siglap

What a lucky boy I am (well old man actually) as on 28th June I turned 48 and my lovely family decided to take me out for a wine and dine, And that event took place somewhere new we have not been before, despite it has been open for two years already, itโ€™s in Siglap and is actually next door to Amyโ€™s school โ€“ here comes my review of Slake Restaurant Siglap.

Asian fusion food was a little up there price-wise, but it was extremely good quality food โ€“ so worth paying it.

Address for Slake: 15 Swan Lake Avenue, Siglap
Telephone number for Slake: +65 6243 6220

What I havenโ€™t included here is a list of their sauces, sauces that you can take home too โ€“ colourfully named; โ€œadopt a jarโ€ฆโ€ Very cool Slake Restaurant @ Siglap. We had most of the sauces though all included in the meals we ordered below โ€“ let me take you through those choices now, but first a quick look at the menu.

I like this menu โ€“ not too much to choose from. There were also a few specials on the board, but it is not overpowering with too much choice. Niceโ€ฆ

Yep itโ€™s SPAM fries, OMG so so decadent

Yes folks, SPAM fries. Absolutely amazing. Spam cut to chips, floured and coated in a light batter, and then deep fried. Well done Slake Restaurant @ Siglap, these little blighters were incredible. And served with this chili padi mayonnaise. Damned good!!!

OMG โ€“ probably the best nachos I have ever had, clearly homemade, but then top with sauces, mayonnaise, salad, and beef rendang โ€“ yes folks these are beef rendang nachos โ€“ BOOM!!!

Up next was the grilled Halloumi cheese, with a spiced apple chutney style topping and tomato relish, you just have to love grilled Halloumi and I sure did like their version

Even their Spring rolls were so good, freshly made (you could just tell), fried to perfection and no grease, just crunch and such a nice filling.

The only slight disappointment was the beef. Incredible sauce accompaniment with little beads of pomegranate too, that was genius. I ate the first bit you can see in the picture, crunchy charred meat, and a smoky taste that was so good.

But then the inner pieces of the steak became rather chewy sadly โ€“ so one criticism Slake Restaurant Siglap.

Perhaps should have saved the best until last; the pork ribs. Apparently, these get the top rating for the most favourite dish here, and now having eaten these I can see why โ€“ we actually had two portions of this, and they were just so good. With cauliflower puree and a mustard and kaya sauce โ€“ double BOOM!!!

And then we get hit with the Iberico pork jowl cutlet, almost Tonkatsu in style with a beautifully deep-fried, nonoily breadcrumb casing. This was a belter of a dish, nicely done

So there you have it folks โ€“ we had a cracking meal here at Slake Restaurant Siglap. A new location for us, a wonderful birthday surprise from my gorgeous wife Mary. Loved it entirely, well just one poke re the steak, but the rest was superior. I love the fusion nature of the food style, the sauces were so varied and so intense and a perfect companion to the food.

Great job Slake Restaurant Siglap, simply delicious, and we absolutely will be back for more, more, more and if you happen to be in Siglap I suggest you get in there and have some tucker from them too โ€“ ENJOY!!!
