Curry Favor @ Novena Square
When I first ate at Curry Favor, it was years ago at its first restaurant at Stamford Road, near City Hall. I was fascinated by the interior design of the restaurant then, mainly the wall and the floor...a unique taste that I do not see elsewhere. The one at Novena is also done with a similar touch, but my preference goes to the former...perhaps because it was smaller and cosier...
As for the food, I have always liked their stewed curry, never failed to order the pork stewed curry (pork belly). Had our dinner here tonight, and since today was Monday which is their Curry Favor Day, we would get to enjoy 50% off the 2nd curry main course. I ordered my usual ($13.90) while bf ordered the katsu potato dish ($12.90... forgot the actual name of the dish)...
in the past, i could never finish the pork belly, not to mention the rice...but today, the portion seemed to have strunk. we were wondering if it was due to lowering in price thus resulting in a smaller portion (we could not remember if it costed more previously), or because it is monday and curry dishes come in smaller portion :P.... or is just a fact that the portion has strunk (guess so much for what?)...
the curry has the non-spicy and spicy version, not too sure if they have super spicy. The spicy version was pretty good and has this slight hint of hotness, even suitable for pple who can't take hot stuff. it tastes as good as ever, and the pork belly soft and tender... the katsu potatoes were nice too. the combination of pork belly and potatoes....best!

I used to like the one at Stamford House and always feel that they have served the best stew beef. The beef is so tender and juicy especially with the fried slice garlic that spruce up the flavour. Lately the taste changed and they no longer serve the fried garlic... A bit of a disappointment...

Hi, saw that you've tried the Ayam Penyet Ria too, so which is better?

I've never been to Chinatown food centre or Albert Street Temporary food centre so can't compare. Yup, it's "song fish head" steam with tau see style, and I love the pork lard on it, very crispy. ^o^

How is the fish steam head compared to the ones at Chinatown food centre or there's another stall in Albert Street Temporary food centre? The steam fish head is "song fish head" steam with tau see style?

I went to the tony roma's in singapore suntec city, the ribs is very nice & tender and the chocolate dessert is sinful! Dun like the corn soup though.

Yup, the roast pork is super nice, & it sold out very fast, the lunch hour is 1130am to 230pm and the roast pork sold out at around 1pm.

Overall plus the cendol. I like the sauce but the crushed peanuts spoiled it and the fried stuffs too plain.
