<a href="https://rempapa.sg/?destinasian">Rempapa</a> is a family-friendly neighborhood bistro: the latest venture by MasterChef Singapore judge Damian D’Silva, who has dedicated his career in restaurant kitchens to pushing lesser-known <a href="https://destinasian.com/category/singapore">Singaporean</a> heritage dishes into the spotlight. Hence the inclusion of his grandfather’s recipe for the Malay-influenced Eurasian specialty baca assam: melt-in-the-mouth beef cheek smothered in a rich tamarind-and-galangal spiced gravy, perfect for spooning over turmeric basmati rice. It’s a hopelessly addictive flavor bomb that tastes halfway between rendang and beef bourguignon. Topped with delicate ambarella floss and coated in a citrusy dressing, the sweet-sour kedondong salad of sliced wing bean, herbs, chopped peanut, and ginger flower acts as a counterweight to heavier dishes like buah keluak fried rice, which liberally uses a kind of fermented black seed beloved in Peranakan cooking. Dessert comprises a changing selection of bite-size local cakes. —James Louie
