Review of Monkey Head Mushroom Satay at D’Life Signature by r3ddrag0n

This is $5, no GST and service charge. There’s three sticks of “satay”. It’s fried not grilled like the authentic satay. And it smells so freaking good! That’s the first time that caught my eye(or nose in fact haha) when this dish was served. There are cucumbers, a keropok(to act as the rice I suppose) and two pieces of lettuce. It is a very good presentation, colourful to the eyes and not just that brown satay colour. The satay is crispy yet soft inside, it has the texture of satay, with that crispy edges yet still retaining that fatty texture. For the peanut sauce, it doesn’t really taste like the normal satay peanut sauce but it still delicious in its own way. It is not overly sweet Nor oily. The keropok is a unique addition to this dish, yet I think it complements it very well. Both the keropok and cucumber act as a crunch and brings a nice variety of texture to this dish. Tho the keropok doesn’t taste like keropok, it’s lighter in flavour and I prefer this to the real one. Overall, this is a good side dish to start your meal, not too filling and meat eaters liked it. Would be better if it was an even number of sticks tho haha.
