If you missed Tim Ho Wan’s seasonal menu which spotlighted delicious Hong Kong-style curry signatures, now’s your chance to have it again at all their restaurants (except Nomstar) till mid-November 2022! With dishes that took spice lovers by surprise, expect delectable rice dishes and complementary dim sum dishes spiced up with fragrant curry.
A common dish available in Hong Kong, the curry gravy is usually less spicy than its similar counterparts yet bears a hint of creamy sweet-spiciness. It is made with an array of aromatic herbs and spices, as well as coconut milk that contributes to its richness. Thick, creamy and flavourful, just the way Singaporeans love their curries! Here are the dishes you can expect:
Making a return is the HK Curry Pork Chop Egg Fried Rice ($13.80) an authentic staple dish commonly seen in cha chaan tengs (Hong Kong-style café). Have a go at the good old classic featuring slab of deep-fried pork cutlet, juicy and succulent to go with scrambled egg fried rice, doused with a generous amount of fragrant curry sauce for the flavourful kick.
A brand newcomer for better variety is the Beef Brisket Curry with Yuenyang Buns ($13.80). Slow-cooked in fragrant curry for up to two hours for a chewy and tender texture, pair it with a serving of yuenyang ‘mantou’ buns, that will soak up all the remaining flavour essence of the well-spiced curry after you are done with the briskets for a truly satisfying meal.
Salted egg fanatics, this is for you! A twist from the Steamed Salted Egg Buns, the Salted Egg Lava Shrimp Toast ($7.50) presents a solid bite of crispy bread toast wrapped with shrimp meat paste and lava salted egg fillings for the savoury-sweet flavour.
End things on a sweet note with Crispy Fried Milk Custard ($6), a traditional Cantonese dessert that is satisfyingly crunchy on the outside and creamy on the inside with a silky-smooth finish. The custard first hits with a delicate sweetness before melting off on the tongue with a blend of sweet and savoury combination, the perfect afternoon snacking treat that will leave you wanting more.
Tim Ho Wan’s “All Time Favourites” menu is now available for sale at all its restaurants (except Nomstar) till mid-November so head on down for spicy, punchy curried items that will whet your appetite today!
