  • About halfway through a seriously magnificent meal at Soos, my dining companion noted that it was the best meal he had had in a very long time. I was hard-pressed to disagree. We arrived at Soos at around 6:00 on a Sunday night and were grateful to see that tables were available. (We had already tried a couple of other restaurants.) The menu consists mostly of sharing plates, so we ordered the following: Pulled kapitan tacos (chicken kapitan, house made 'tacos', napa carrot slaw, johnny's tzatziki), pork belly pancakes (nyonya sticky soy pork belly, crispy taro root pancake, scallion), and rendang beef short ribs (rendang curry braise, coconut rice, roti). We started with the tacos, and though very small, these packed a hell of a lot of flavor into each bite. I especially couldn't get enough of the small, crunchy pieces of chicken thrown into the mix. I could've eaten about 100 more of those things. Ditto the pork belly pancakes. The "pancakes" were actually very crispy and, from my perspective, kind of took away from the deliciousness of the pork belly, so I ate them separately. Finally, the short ribs were mind-blowingly tasty. The meat was super tender and the curry braise was nothing short of exquisite. Again, it was a small portion, but so, so good. Everything was so amazing that we absolutely had to order dessert, so we got the two sweet items on the menu: Pisang goreng (fried banana, bang bang's daily ice cream, candied nut crumble) and sago sago (tapioca pearl pudding, gula melaka, pandan, coconut). I'll admit the sago sago didn't do much for me. It's essentially a spin on tapioca pudding and it was just too subtle for my demanding tastebuds. (I should point out that my dining companion loved it, however.) The pisang goreng, on the other hand, was absolutely incredible. The fried banana and candied nut crumble were astounding, and the Bang Bang ice cream, burnt toffee, was typically sublime. (It was especially gratifying to enjoy this dessert given that we had a perfect view of dozens of suckers standing in an insane lineup for Bang Bang.) Soos also offers a $35 per person option where they'll feed you a selection of their offerings, and I have no doubt that I'll be returning to sample that.
