The beef literally almost melts in your mouth ; such is the marbelling of the meat
Last week, a friend and I tried the Fat Cow restaurant at #01 - 04 Camden Medical Centre.
While we tried to reserve a table for 12.15 pm at the last minute, the 'Chope' app on the phone only gave us a time slot of 1.30 pm. Undaunted, we tried to gatecrash the lunch venue anyway and the front desk lady was kind enough to arrange a seating at the Kaiseiki style counter with about 10 other guests even though we had arrived at 12.20 and the reservation at Chope had indicated that there was no more seating available.
We ordered the Wagyu Beef Bowl with a side salad, and I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the beef ; I would love to eat it every other week, but the cholesterol levels will not allow it, so I will keep this only for a special occasion, perhaps once every 6 months.
The meat was very tender, and almost melts in your mouth, and with the medium rare cooking on the grill, I dare say this rates one of the best Wagyu steaks I have eaten recently.
The only other steak comparable is the one at Mohammad Sultan Road, Bisteca, an Italian fine dining restaurant.
Flavourful and al dente chewy (not too chewy), the meat is prepared at the grill while you dine on your salad. The rice is typical Japanese sticky rice and with a slight flavouring of sauce, garnishing and a world best half boiled egg (Japanese style). Price per bowl : $50 ++.
Verdict
Food Quality : 9 upon 10
Service Standard : 9 upon 10
Ambience : 8 upon 10
Total : 8. 6 upon 10 (par excellence)
Will I come again ; most definately.
