Breakfast. Sibling Rival at The Hoxton DTLA. ⁠⠀

The Hoxton Los Angeles. Charming and affordable. Fresh review on the blog. ⁠⠀

I’ve been haunted by a number of dishes over the years, dishes around the world that I can’t get out of my head, dishes against which I compare everything else I eat in that particular genre. This is one of those dishes. This is a Peranakan prawn curry at @candlenutsg in Singapore. Beautiful shell-on prawns, coconut milk, clusters of whole black peppercorns, astoundingly hot green chilies, fried shallots... Absolutely extraordinary. This is one of those dishes that makes me buy another plane ticket. This restaurant has grown from a tiny, sleepy storefront into a splashy, trend-setting see-and-be-seen affair, one of the first of its kind to celebrate modern Peranakan cuisine. When I ate this dish at Candlenut, they were in their second location, and now they have moved into an even bigger, livelier space (I dined at the storefront on previous visits). I dream of going back. ⠀

Hard to believe what's been happening in Hong Kong lately. Stay safe, HK friends. ⁠⠀

Happy Taco Tuesday! ⁠⠀
