Carmen flew in from Hong Kong with her boyfriend Ryan. So The Android served as tour guide and brought them around. Brought them to eat claypot laksa and chendol at VivoCity, Yakun’s kaya toast and Mr Teh Tarik Cartel’s teh halia at Far East Square and concluded the day of dreadful walking with dinner at Nanjya Monjya.
Everytime The Android dines at this restaurant, he fails to take any photos. Usually because he’s already too damned high on sake before the food arrives, or everyone’s begun devouring the food as soon as it is placed on the table. Yes, the teppan-yaki based food here is pretty darned good.
Let’s have a look at what’s good here. Three words, peeps: garlic fried rice. The Android can already hear groans of Har? Garlic fried rice?? Well, The Android says shut da fuck up and just taste the fuckin fried rice.
The garlic chahan is only the staple, of course… there are other greats as well. The beef tongue, the tofu mentai cheese, the pork belly okomomiyaki and the assorted sausages are all excellent stuff that are worth your while. Yet, your dining experience here is incomplete without the accompanying sake. The Android strongly recommends the Kubota Senju (久保田千壽), or if you are extremely loaded, the Kubota Manju (久保田萬壽), which is a fair grade up from the Senju.
The Android came this close to not delivering any photos once again… yet he managed a pathetic shot of the die-die-must-try fried garlic chahan (pictured along with the tofu mentai cheese).
