It’s simply refreshing, and the vibrant presentation is a feast for the eyes.

This dish is accompanied by liver sausage, eggs, and South African abalone, which is dipped in tare and expertly charcoal-grilled, adding a premium touch to the classic favourite.
Laksa Siglap This nearly forgotten laksa variation features Medai fish paired with a Balinese-inspired urap of wing beans, bean sprouts, spinach, and desiccated coconut, all swimming in a rich, savory broth with a hint of chili oil.
