竹宝饭 Bamboo Treasure Rice

$78.00


A dish that aspires to give you scent, texture and taste.  We have old tongues :)  as this is not a typical kids' friendly dish. It is herbal so please do not order if you don't like herbs. We generally don't like herbs too although we are very familiar with them but this is one that is delicious for us.

Not a traditional bamboo rice that is cooked using glutinous rice, nor is it clay pot rice that is well sauced with dark soya. It is my mom's concoction of a dish that highlights its container, Bamboo. The dish is golden brown in colour and no dark sauce is being used.


Your first bite should be the rice on its own without any ingredients to experience the charred, crisp and distinctive bittersweet Dang Gui flavour. Subsequently, eat a little of each ingredient to taste how differently have they been prepared. Finally, please portion into your bowl, pour the hot broth over it, eat on its own or with chilli if spice is your thing.


1. Long grain aged Basmati and Japanese short-grain rice are cooked in seaweed, 当归 and Saffron broth. 
2. 1 whole Kampung (means cage-free) chicken and 2 fresh chicken thigh marinated overnight, stewed then grilled over binchotan charcoal. Kampung chicken has fewer fats and less meat but sweeter and more texture.
3. Chinese sausages de-oiled (a technique to remove the oil from traditional sausages for a healthier version that gives you more intense flavour and texture). This is Bill and my fav, just too good.
4. Optional Jap dried oysters stewed and grilled with cold-pressed soya sauce. This oyster is my mom's favourite, she thinks it is the best dried-oysters she has tasted.
5. A portion of rice, shallots and garlic baked to a golden crisp.
6. Fresh bamboo shoots stirfry using a little oil from the sausages.
7. A broth simmered with pork, chicken & toothfish which is a very premium Patagonia MSC wild-caught fish.
8. Specially concocted belachan  with crispy dried scallop chilli sauce.
