At a far fancier iteration of the original, the legend of Brodard lives on. Resembling a modern-day Disney-fairy-meets-Little-
They make Spring Rolls aplenty with every imaginable filling, but there's no need to stray from the glorious grilled pork. Tender, meaty, patty-pork lays parallel to fresh-fried crunchy bits with cool carrots and cucumber and uplifting leaves of mint. Dip into a warm goopy sauce, nay, gravy, with an aroma of orange for a combination of just perfection. The grilled shrimp seem the most similar if you don't prefer pork, and the others look quite good, but there is something powerful about the original that you really need to try.
Chicken Satay is a please-all appetizer, and these skewers feature tender meat with a thorough spice. Dip in a creamy peanut sauce or drench with leftover spring roll sauce for maximum enjoyment.
Banh Xeo is a gorgeous, glow-yellow crepe with a fried-mochi crunch. Shrimp and pork are a savory stuffer. Wrap in lettuce and add fragrant leaves and fish sauce.
Grilled Prawns & Mango Salad was a must - the picture was so pretty. Mine does it no justice, but do note the chunks of fried mochi that accompany these jumbo prawns and sweet shreds of cabbage and mango.
Tiger Prawns & Garlic Noodle are not the prettiest presentation, but god, those noodles are GOOD. A addicting almost-creamy coating of garlic catches a tinge of wok-char, making the prawns, though delicious, seem like an afterthought.
Traditional Chicken Curry is a deep yellow/Massaman-like gravy-soup with chunks of incredibly flavorful dark meat, stewing with a few potatoes. Get it with a side of baguette and use their super-soft and chewy bread to sop up the slurry.
Shaken Beef is the tenderest you'll ever have, with chunks of filet that release their rivers of juice. Eat that salty, sticky soy sauce over a bowl of rice for maximum flavor.
Macarons to go are a must, and their range of flavors is impressive. Ranging from festive fruits like lychee, strawberry, passionfruit, and mango, to fun Fruity Pebbles and richer sensations like pistachio, espresso, chocolate, and salted caramel, it's worth buying a box and trying to guess the flavors.
Eat anything at Brodard, and try to eat everything once. It's done so right and done so well, there's no way you won't love every bite.
