莆田 Putien is actually located in different part of Asia including Singapore and Malaysia, no wonder I felt like I have seen this restaurant in Malaysia last month when I visited there! Recently, the restaurant has got 1 star Michelin and let's see if it's worth it?
We found that it is actually it is the festival of seaweed so we have tried some of their seaweed inspired dishes for lunch today! The snacks provided is also seaweed-themed - Fried seaweed and peanuts, it tasted like those high quality deep fried Japanese seaweed with a good seawater flavour.
And some Thai inspired spicy sauce is also provided for you to add an extra kick to your dishes.
Seaweed with mini shrimps $52A cold starter comes with this delicate seaweed with some tiny miny shrimps hidding in black matter. The seaweed has been marinated in light vinegar, a super appetising delightful light starter to share with friends because seaweed can get pretty filling if you eat too much of it. The tiny shrimps are super small but still flavourful, giving an extra seafood taste to the savoury and slightly sour soft seaweed!
Besides, the size is also not too bad for $52!
Braised pig intestine $78The plate has been actually heated with a tealight underneath, the pig intestine has been prepared using a very traditional method creating that multi-layered texture. It is very tender and and marination has been well absorbed by each layer of the pig intestine, most importantly, it is not oily and it is not filled with chunks of fat in the middle! I just loved it!
Seaweed Omelette $68Again, it is suprisingly good, the seaweed is super soft in the middle of the moist egg omelette. The middle part of the omelette is moist but both sides are very crispy with a crunch to it! It is not too savoury and it has a very unique flavour after being filled with seaweed. I would never imagine this generous among of seaweed would actually work with egg! But tbh, it is best to enjoy with some rice for better enjoyment.
100-second stewed yellow croaker $68/per headTenderness is the key to this dish. The fresh yellow croaker is stewed with ginger precisely within 100 seconds, this light yet appetising dish is a top choice for the healthy palates. The croaker is also not fishy so it's suitable for kids too! Just be careful of the very tiny fishbones! The skin is very crispy and the flesh is very tender, so the whole thing is just scrumptious!
The broth is pretty savoury so I wouldn't recommend you to drink it on its own.
Meizhu claypot rice with seaweed $88Lastly, a very hot claypot of stewed rice has been brought to us. The sort of wet stewed is surprisingly stick in texture. We were told that Japanese pearl rice is used during the pan fried process therefore it is a bit more stickier than using Thai / Chinese rice. The very hot rice is moist yet it would not stick to the claypot. The kind of like sticky rice texture is not as filling as sticky rice which I liked.
The rice has an aromatic seaweed and some pork flavour, a perfect compliment with the seaweed pancake or the cold seaweed with mini shrimp dish!
p.s. keep the claypot lid so that the temperature of rice can be kept better
Overall, it is a much better dining experience than we expected, everything is delicious. As a seaweed lover, I just found it very healthy and great way to enjoy a relaxing lunch with family during the weekend! I will be back to try some of their non-seaweed dishes next time!
