Big Mama at Kim Tian Road

Big Mama is a fabulous place for dinner on Saturday nights - we were there in a group of 7, and having booked the first seating at 6pm, we were told we had to leave before 8pm. No problems there, since the food arrived very quickly. It's a homely, unpretentious place and excellent for large rowdy groups, since you can get to try a bit of everything - the servings are huge.

They're very generous with the appetisers, and when the plates were emptied, offered refills cheerfully. Top marks for service.
Close-up of the various appetisers -my favourite was the jelly-like spicy blocks, which were a bit like cubed 凉粉.

I absolutely loved their seafood and chives pancake. Soft on the inside and crispy on the outside.


Great with the chilli dipping sauce


We ordered suyuk, which is...siu yuk. The platter arrived looking like this:


Ooh the pork was delicious - very soft and tender, and not too fatty so it didn't feel too sinful popping everything into our mouths


Two ways of eating it: either with sauce and cucumber, or with a slice of radish and bean sprouts.


Bulgogi beef - this turned out soupier than expected, but still tasty nonetheless.
 
We ordered a spicy grilled chicken, which came with raw veggies and had to be stir-fried at the table.

The final product with rice cakes - excellent.


The seafood hotpot was really good as well - this was not too salty, just the right amount of spice and really good with white steamed rice.


It had noodles at the bottom, which were nice and chewy.


A fantastic place to go with greedy friends.
