I had lunch with HC and my vendors today at Big D's Grill.
Which has gotten some good reviews on food blogs over the last few months or so..

It was interesting. A large stall set in a coffee shop.
Similar to the ubiquitous zi-char stalls you would see in coffee shops all over the island.
And of course, you can imagine the setting. The coffee shop was below a HDB block, in a nondescript sleepy HDB heartland.

It was in Bedok actually. Just opposite Temasek JC.
It was really kopitiam style. Round tables with red plastic chairs. Fans mounted high on the walls and 2 mini TVs mounted on racks fitted on various pillars.

And Big D's Grill concept is...to sell high-end meat products in the heartlands.

The stall had Kurobuta Pork (High-end Japanese Royal Pork), Black Angus Beef, Wagyu Beef, Australian Beef, Kobe Beef, yada yada....
Of course it also had the normal Battered Red Snappers and pasta and all...but the main draw was the special items mentioned above.

Prices were definitely much much cheaper than what you would get if you went to Lawry's or Aston's or the other steak places.

I ordered the Black Angus Ribeye (200gms) which came with coleslaw and lovely fries. The rest of the 3 guys ordered the Kurobuta Pork. Mine was $30 and theirs was $36 each.

Strange to be chewing on such delectable high-end stuff in a kopitiam.
Nah, strange sounds a little negative haha..Allow me to rephrase. It was refreshing to have taken such foods in a sleepy kopitiam.

And the background music for the day?
Haha Hokkien songs, with ahpeks squabbling in the background.
And aunties chopping chives and spring onions on their wooden chopping boards.

My beef was excellent. Juicy and tender. I ordered it medium done and it came just nicely seared on all side with the middle a light shade of pink.

I'm glad I was the only one who took the beef. The pork turned out not as nice. Hahaha...;p

All I can say is ZAN!! 赞！！！
Unique concept, reasonable prices and a friendly atmosphere!
