Midas

Every touch is gold and indeed, the Midas’ curry chicken is as unique as they come. Owner Sax Choa reveals that his special recipe draws inspiration from both Indian and Chinese curries. The result is a peppery viscous curry that is redolent of earthy spice – mainly from mustard seeds and cloves without adding any MSG or sugar. Each hearty bowl ($8.40) comes generously bejewelled with chunks of succulent chicken, soft-boiled potatoes, a whole egg and two flaky oven-baked roti pratas. For now, the eclectic hawker also plates up other unique creations like the butter mutton keema (from $7) and a baked garam masala chicken ($8).
