Creamy Pesto Pasta: Light, aromatic, and satisfying
This garden-fresh pasta features a velvety sauce made from garlic, pine nuts, fresh basil, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, mushrooms, and greens. Two flavourful variations are available:
- Classic Basil Pesto – Smooth, herby, and fragrant.
- Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto – Tangy, rich, and bursting with Mediterranean flair.
A nourishing yet indulgent dish that proves pasta can be both hearty and refined.
Lamb Shank: Comfort in every bite
Slow-braised until fork-tender, Captain Shrimp’s premium lamb shank is rich in flavour and texture. Cooked for hours, the meat slides off the bone with ease, served alongside vegetables and potatoes in a robust, savoury gravy. A perfect centrepiece for a comforting meal at home.
Salted Egg Seafood Boil: Bold Malaysian fusion
This local spin on a Southern U.S. classic features large shrimp, green mussels, squid rings, broccoli florets, and sweet corn, all cooked in seasoned broth and coated in a buttery salted egg yolk sauce. Creamy, spicy, and briny, it’s a must-try for seafood lovers seeking a unique Malaysian-inspired dish.
S’mores Brownie: A sweet nostalgic treat
With a graham cracker crust, fudgy chocolate brownie base, and golden torched marshmallow topping, this dessert reimagines a campfire classic. The balance of textures—from crunchy to gooey—makes it a fun and indulgent way to end any meal.
Tex-Mex Cheese Nachos: Perfect for sharing
Ideal for parties or casual get-togethers, these nachos come layered with red cheddar, Monterey Jack, black beans, corn, fresh greens, and jalapeños. Served with salsa and sour cream, it’s a colourful platter full of crunch, heat, and melty cheese goodness.
Wild Mushroom Soup: Earthy and elegant
This silky soup blends shiitake and button mushrooms with cream and herbs, offering a deeply savoury umami profile. Rich and warming, it’s an ideal starter or a cozy comfort for a rainy day.
Pasta Salted Egg Chicken: A cultural crossover hit
This popular new dish pairs crispy golden chicken with a creamy salted egg yolk sauce infused with curry leaves and chilli padi, all served over al dente pasta. Bold, buttery, and slightly spicy, it’s a standout fusion dish that has quickly earned fan-favourite status.
