Make the most out of your mealtime with our roundup of timely treats
It's mealtime and the stomach is rumbling incessantly. The only thoughts circulating through the mind are the dining options. Sure, one could possibly make a meal out of the previous day’s leftovers or grab a quick microwavable meal from the nearest convenience store, but why settle for less? The following picks present restaurant obsessives with a (more than) decent meal, offering everything from traditional Indonesian cuisine to Japanese yakiniku.
1. Yen Social
Turning out great yakiniku is by no means a simple feat. Yen Social’s dedication to the craft produces impressive results: expect wallet-friendly premium cuts that are rich, juicy and flavourful. The focus is on their butcher platter, which features a progression of meats from thick-cut karubi to Australian Wagyu ribeye. To add, the 21-day dry-aged Wagyu ox tongue is impressive, but it’s the Taiwanese-style Wagyu beef noodle that steals the show. Taiwanese-born Chef Chen’s special recipe features Japanese Wagyu beef chunks and beef tendon, slow-stewed for 48 hours and served with a tangle of firm, chewy noodles. The meat is so tender, it pulls apart at the touch of a fork. Book here.
