Tucked away in an obscure corner at Westgate, SYNC Korean Fusion Bistro is a family-friendly restaurant that offers Korean fare with a slight twist to suit the Western palate.
Walking in, I was taken by the fairy light decorations which turned the sheltered alfresco dining area into a romantic sanctuary by night. The contemporary interior also made the place warm and inviting.
To start off, we had the Iced Ginger Citron ($7.50). Being a non-ginger fan, I was slightly intimidated when I saw the small ginger chunks infused in the drink but was pleasantly surprised when I tasted it. The ginger taste isn’t overpowering, instead providing a subtle lift to the beverage.
The toppoki came on a hot plate, topped with fried bacon bits, scallions and a runny egg. The sweet and slightly spicy chilli sauce complemented the dish, leaving every mouthful of rice cake bursting with flavour. Do eat this while it’s hot though, as the rice cakes tend to harden if left after a while.
While the broth provided a spicy kick, I felt that its flavour could have been better brought out, given the generous portion of ingredients in the stew.
These desserts are definitely worth spending your calories on.
SYNC Korean Fusion Bistro makes a cosy hideout to chill with friends over food and booze, or to have a casual date. While the mains fell slightly short of my expectations, the starters and desserts are what I would coming back for.
