Crackling&Co is BSC’s new butchery-bistro for carnivorous cravings, spanning charcuterie to chicken liver pate cooked with French butter, duck rillettes to tournedos Rossini to crispy-crackling pork.

Try Crackling&Co’s take on hachis parmentier, the French cousin of shepherd’s pie, served here with thickly pulled Angus beef brisket instead of mince, comfortingly blanketed with mashed potatoes and grated cheese for a beautiful bake, hearty and soulful.

Steak frites currently harnesses Black Onyx 100% pure Black Angus beef, more marbled than everyday Angus, complete with no fewer than three house-made sauces of blue cheese, mushroom and black pepper.

Chef William Ragonneau, his wife Tee Teh and right-hand man Chris do wonderful work, from their welcoming warmth to thoughtful touches in their own espelette-infused butter and kitchen-cured gravlax.

MEMI:R is The Exchange TRX’s new Korean buckwheat noodle haven, where the grain gets the full grind from stone mill to bowl in the open kitchen.

Freshly handmade buckwheat noodles surface in slender strands or wide-cut ribbons, served chilled, warm, in broth or with dipping sauces. 

Play it cool with perilla oil noodles, with herbaceous earthiness bringing sensuous silkiness to the natural nuttiness of the beef-topped noodles.

Some like it hot: Pollock roe cream noodles prove extra-indulgent, with briny richness coating the supple noodles, luscious with a firm bite.

Buckwheat dumplings and drinks are also available, including a sikhye rice beverage infused with roasted buckwheat.
