Morganfield's has two restaurants in Malaysia, one in KL and the other in Penang. They decided to get into the ribs scene of Singapore by opening it's first restaurant here at the Star Vista (#02-23), located just next to Buona Vista MRT station. Although it's just two MRT station away from my home, this is actually my first visit to the mall as well as to this restaurant.
If you read up the story of Morganfield's, you would realized that it is an American inspired restaurant and bar. A great combination of music and good soul food. This 180-seater restaurant has a modern interior with a rustic feel. Their signature dish has got to be their BBQ pork ribs. Their popularity is visible with the crowds. Although it's a weekday night, the restaurant is almost full house. Do remember to call up for reservations for weekends. Al fresco dining can be opted too to enjoy the night breeze.
With the Christmas season in mind, Morganfield's have also came up with a number of Christmas platters, set lunch, promotions and contests to spread the festive cheers. I'm glad to be invited together with some of the other bloggers of streetdirectory to try out two of their Christmas Platters.
From left to right:
Candy Cane Milkshake ($11.90) which is what I ordered. The candy cone and sugar sprinkles attracted me to order it and I loved it very much. It can even be considered as a dessert drink and is made up of vanilla ice cream with a bit of peppermint flavour, strawberry puree and whipped cream. Sweet.
Cranberry Blush ($10.90) is a refreshing drink of cranberry, orange and pineapple mix together.
Christmas Beer ($15.90) is blanc, sprite and orange. Great drink for celebrations.
Chili Cheese Fries ($12.90) is our appetizer. The fries are baked with cheese, a lot of cheese, topped with pork bacon bits and served with chilli concarne. The chili is very unique. I've never tasted such chili elsewhere before.
Tortilla Chips with crab and spinach dip. Another special appetizer. Crab and spinach dip is rather addictive. This would made a nice snacks.
Bacon Wrapped Meatballs ($9.90). The deep fried pork meatballs are wrapped with bacon and goes well with the Dijon mustard sauce.
*************************************
Here comes our main course - Christmas Platters! We were served two platters and both comes in very big portion. Can be shared with 4 persons or more if you are not a big eater.
All Christmas Platters come with:
• Christmas Caesar Salad with Prosciutto
• Sausage Platter
• French Fries, Redskin Mash, Corn, Pilaf Rice
• Dessert Platter
This is the Christmas Caesar Salad with Prosciutto and is part of the Christmas Platter. The vegetables are fresh and crunchy with their homemade dressing. Can choose to sprinkle cheese or pepper on top. As the main dishes would be rather meaty, this is one dish that can help to balance up with the main dish later on.
Morganfield’s Christmas Rib Platter - $129.90++
• Half Slab Hickory BBQ Sticky Bones
• Half Slab Tuscan Baked Spicy Sticky Bones
• Half Slab Smoked Peppercorn Sticky Bones
Yes, we have their signature dish - sticky bones!!! I prefer the Hickory BBQ Sticky Bones over the rest. But all the meat is tender and peeled off the bones easily which is a result of low and slow cooking. *Drool*
Morganfield’s Christmas Turkey Platter- $139.90++
• Morgan’s BBQ Christmas Turkey Drumstick
• Sliced Honey Glazed Baked Ham
The turkey drumstick meat is much rougher than normal chicken meat. The four different types of sausages includes Jumbo Chicken sausages, Cheesy Sausages, Spicy Italian and Bratwurst.
The dessert platter of banana cake, bread pudding and brownie and ice creams. The bread pudding comes with a dash of whiskey and is simply delicious.
The group of us who came with an empty stomach and leave bloated and satisfied. Once again, thanks for the invitation.
