\"\"Our memorable experience at the fine-dining Coriander Leaf<\/a>\u00a0on Christmas 2010 gave us\u00a0great anticipation and excitement for their new casual outpost, Coriander Leaf Grill at Ann Siang<\/strong>.\u00a0Other than that the price is more pocket-friendly here, this new joint\u00a0focuses on Asian-inspired grilled meats using a charcoal grill or\u00a0a tandoor.<\/p>\n

Chef-owner Samia Ahad, who founded Coriander Leaf in 2001, graduated from the prestigious Institute of Culinary Education in New York City and has experienced at Michelin-starred kitchens. It is quite unusual to have a female head chef, so it’s great to show our support.<\/p>\n

\"\"The menu at Coriander Leaf Grill is simple and easy. Almost every item, including the sauces, is made from scratch in-house. For starters, they recommend the\u00a0trio Mediterranean dips with pita<\/strong> ($18), but since simple carbs are not fashionable anymore, so we went for the\u00a0burrata<\/strong> ($18). It comes with spiced lentils, and although I don’t usually like the earthliness of lentils, this combination works excellently; a soft creamliness plays off a muskiness. The what-I-suppose-is pesto lifts the entire dish.\u00a0\"\"The mains don’t come with sides; they are standalone meats. You’ll have to order the sides such as\u00a0truffle fries<\/strong> ($12) or\u00a0baked sweet potato\u00a0<\/strong>($10) separately. Actually, I would suggest to add some sides to the mains because it makes the plate fuller; looks better aesthetically; and fills up the stomach.<\/p>\n

We ordered all three of their signatures, and although they were very good, we all had a different favorite. The baby lamb chops<\/strong>, recommended medium, is marinated in harrisa, a North African chilli pepper paste. Not at all gamy, the chops have an appetizing sourness.
\n\"\"Mr Fitness’s favorite, the tender\u00a0char-grilled dry aged USDA Prime ribeye steak<\/strong> ($39), is topped with hand-churned wakame-koji butter. \u00a0Wakame is a seaweed and koji is a living food made from the treatment of rice with a fungus called\u00a0Aspergillus oryzae. In food science, seaweed gives the umami flavor, so does koji; so it’s no wonder that despite its simplicity, the steak is good. \u00a0\"\"One of my grouse is that they use too much harrissa in their dishes that it is hard not to repeat orders with harrissa. However, my favorite is the\u00a0harrisa chicken burger<\/strong> ($20). The chicken is baked in a tandoor oven, and it’s tender and tangy, which offsets the sweetness of the sweet brioche bun, nicely toasted for a crusty and fluffy texture, buttered generously.\"\"A strength of the restaurant is that there are good dishes from starters to desserts, and this pear tart<\/strong> ($16) is wonderful. It comes with a\u00a0chilli-lime ice cream which has a merest touch of spiciness, and the ice cream equilibrizes the sweetness of the pear. The tart shell isn’t typical, more like the texture and flavor of buttery croissant.<\/p>\n

On the whole, this restaurant serves balanced, tasty food without flaws. We liked every dish, and hated none.<\/p>\n
