If you think that frog legs is only an Asian delicacy, think again. In fact, frog legs are one of the better-known delicacies of French and Chinese cuisines.
Hidden in the neighbourhood of Geylang, G7 Sin Ma Live Seafood is one of the local restaurants that offers these delicacies like bull frog legs. Open till very late in the night, there are still many customers having supper, most often the claypot frog legs with porridge.
Diners can either order ala carte or a set. We ordered a set which came with two pots of bull frog legs and a pot of porridge.
Johnny, the owner, believed never to short-change his customers, therefore, the bull frogs were said to have carefully sourced and prepared with only the freshest ingredients were used.
The bull frogs can be cooked in three different sauces - 宫保田鸡-style, 姜葱田鸡-style. I love the former as it was flavourful and spicy at the same time. There seemed to have marmite-taste in the sauce. Enjoying the porridge with the sauce was ambrosial that we could even finish the pot of porridge with the sauce alone. (Food rating: 4/5)
The sambal sotong (calamari) was divinely delicious. The sambal chilli sauce was superb and the calamaris were tender soft. (Food rating: 3/5)
When having porridge, we must never forget to order a serving of egg omelette with preserved radish. The chef's culinary skills were very good. The eggs were fried in very hot wok / pan that gave a very nice 锅气. I enjoyed this egg dish immensely and it complemented the porridge very well. (Food rating: 4/5)
