Hello Unregistered,

03-96 The Central, 6 Eu Tong Sen Street, Tel: 6327-8122 Open: 11.30am to 3pm, 6 to 11pm

Kitsch reigns at Ma Maison, a restaurant at The Central that serves Japanese- style Western food.

The place is done up like grandma’s cottage, if grandma is English and a hoarder.

But the food and service are excellent, which might explain why the place is packed all the time. Another good sign: Lots of Japanese people eat there.

The menu has amazing variety but the dish to order is the hamburger steak ($16), served with a sauce that has been simmered for 28 days.

This beef demi-glace is flavoured with secret spices and tomatoes and enriched with beef marrow. The end result is not as thick and gluggy as you might expect. Think liquid cow with a whiff of Worcestershire sauce and you get the idea.

Naturally, the sauce and the hamburgers are delicious together. The patties, made with 70 per cent ground beef and 30 per cent ground pork, grill up real juicy. The meat isn’t too finely ground so there’s some bite to it, but it remains tender.

Best of all, the bun-less patty is served with a perfectly fried egg on top. On the side are carrots, broccoli and a too-small scoop of a very moreish potato and tuna salad.
