Two Fat Men is a Gastro
Bar located along East Coast Road. This little establishment open
from 5pm to 1 in the morning. During the weekend it also serve Live
Premier League matches for those football lovers in Singapore.
For those with hungry
stomachs, they serve Western Food and Thai Street Food to go along
with their wide variety of beers, cocktails and mocktails.
We decided Bacon &
Egg Burger ($11.20) and Portabello Burger ($13.90) from the Western
Menu. The burgers are served in the simple and bare version. When the
menu said burger, it basically mean burger with no side dish such as
fries or salad at all. The patties are meaty and juicy. For the bacon
and eggs, it is accompany by the crispy bacon, however it can be a
bit salty. While the portabello mushroom is almost as the burger
patties in size. It might looks plain, however it is full of flavour.

Grilled Pork Neck
($9.90), Grill Squid ($11.90) and Tang Hoon Prawn ($9.90) were our
choice from the Thai Street Food menu. The Grilled Pork Neck with
Tamarind Spicy Sauce is the favourite item in the Two Fat Men. The
pork neck has been marinated over a long period, the meat is tender
and succulent with a nice grill burnt flavour The same can be said
with the grill squid, tender and not chewy. The charred from the
frill actually helps to accentuate the flavour the squid.

Unlike the grilled pork
neck and squid, the Tang Hoon Prawn is slightly disappointing. The
tang hoon is slightly dry and they seems to be a bit shy about using
the herbs, resulting the dish to taste on a bland side. In Thailand,
they will normally use pork fat to oil the tang hoon, maybe they can
use olive oil to compensate the health conscious Singaporean and kick
up a notch on the spice level. The prawns are fresh and juicy. '

The service is friendly
but minimum. The decoration is very simple. Customer has a choice of
outdoor open air seating, or indoor with round marble tables like
old kopitiam style instead of a bar.

Overall, we find the
serving of Western and Thai food are quite unique. The food are
delicious, however Thai Street food has been tone down version from
its original version. Combine with the drinks, live EPL, and late
opening hours, this is definitely a good place for late night dining,
hang out place or watch Manchester United Games!!!
