Restaurant Singapore/Raffles, Badenerstrasse, Zurich
May
2010
On Badenerstrasse towards Schlieren, the Restaurant Singapore is serving asian food. Interestingly enough the place is split into two parts, one more of a buffet style place and a proper restaurant called The Raffles. Not that it has anything to do with the Raffles in Singapore, but I’m sure it inspires the people of Albisrieden. First dish was a szechuan soup, which had a bit of zing but the thickness and high viscosity gave it an artificial touch. Main was a Laksa, which essentially is a coconut milk based spicy soup like dish from Malaysia or Singapore. It sports a combination of milky, sour and spicy dishes, it’s refreshing yet still has a bit of zing without the killer burn. Chicken and noodles were part of the dish as well giving it the needed texture. The dish might not match the quality at a hawker in Singapore, but it was a pretty good version. Prices:
