BBQ on a Boat Review, at Keppel Marina, Singapore
BBQ on a Boat, is hard with a biscuit tin-sized BBQ hot-plate, but… When you get asked to cook for these gentlemen onboard their boat you simply cannot say no.
5 of some of the finest gentlemen I have ever met in my life, some new and some already BFF’s – but from its night on they are now 5 BFF’s for certain. I have cooked for the owners & friends of this boat once before and we nearly had a second one down but Covid sadly killed it.
And today we were so lucky to have organised it the night before the new rulings of 5 only in a group – but we did have to be back in the harbour before midnight. So off I went to Keppel Marina laden with goodies and utensils for the Chef Table BBQ adventure on the high seas surrounding Singapore.
We nestled the boat near Lazarus Island for some water sports before the food began.
On the BBQ on a Boat menu tonight was;
- Tom Yum Cocktail – yes a spicy vodka cocktail ‘w’ a prawn skewer
- Yabbies – sambal crayfish ‘w’ fresh herbs
- Toma – black truffle tomahawk served ‘w’ butter braised leeks & hazelnuts
- Skirt – skirt steak marinated in Japanese sauce, served on crostini ‘w’ horseradish
- Vol-au-Vents – lobster tail with bacon in a lemon & dill mayo
- Lamb Lollipops – minted lamb rack
- Lemon honey & chilli BBQ prawns
Feedback on the food from the lovely gentlemen has been excellent – so I am a happy cook as well as a friend of new people.
Give ChillaxBBQ a call if you want some of the same… ENJOY!!!
