| Badoque @ Bedok |
A quick
mention of the word Badoque in Singapore, beef ribs will be the first
that come to mind. This Halal establishment open its door in 2008,
and has been dishing out a superb dinosaur size beef ribs to foodies
in Singapore.
In their
original outlet in Bedok, the dining area are split into indoor and
outdoor. However, considering the weather in Singapore, it will be
best to stick with indoor during the day and try the outdoor in the
evening.

Starter
was Kepak Bing Bing ($12.50). This rendition of spicy chicken wings
by Badoque, who claims that it is the spiciest chicken wings in town.
Unlike those buffalo wings challenge, the version here uses the
spiciest homemade chilli padi sauce that ready to blow your head off.
I took one bite of the wing, I end up finishing half of my drinks,
nursing my numb lips and did not touch the rest of the wings.

For the
main course, five of us share 3 mains. Badoque Ribs ($36). Two pieces
of gigantic beef ribs about 30 cm in length and 8 cm of meat
thickness, basked in homemade bbq sauce just like the version in the
US. Sides are French beans, carrots and potatoes. The meat is tender,
succulent and fall of the bone. There is enough fats in the ribs to
make it feel like melting in your mouth. The sweet and tangy bbq
sauce together with gherkins helps to counter the overwhelming taste
in the meat.

Iga Bakar
($36) – Indonesian style of beef ribs, glazed in sweet and spicy
soy sauce. Served with fragrant basmati rice. The sweet soya sauce
glaze allow the spices marinate to stick to the ribs. When grilled,
it release the aromatic flavour that is so appetizing and you won't
be able to resist. Similar to the Badoque Ribs, the meat is meaty and
succulent. However, this version feels more resilient compared to the
Badoque ribs. The lime and achar on the side helps to balance the
dish.

Flounder
Fish and Chips ($24). The fried battered flounder fillets are huge in
size almost the same length as the ribs. The flavoured batter create
a crispy coating that sealed the flakiness of the flounder, and also
act as seasoning to the fish. The chips is crisp and moist made a
perfect companion to the fish.

As it is
a Halal restaurant, no alcohol is served here. Instead you can try
their flavourful mocktails such as frangipani, mojito or salted
caramel ($8.50 each).

The décor
is very simple and casual. Black colour marble table filled the
restaurant together with pink and green chairs. Service was friendly
and efficient. The chef come out frequently to check on the
customers.

Overall,
Badoque really provide a casual and hearty environment to dine in. To
my surprise, I will find it difficult to finish a main dish on my own
but most of the regular here, half of my size easily polish up the
whole plate on their own. So if you are looking for a hearty beef
ribs meal or mind blowing chicken wings, check out Badoque. Cheers!!
