Prepare to savour a dish that marries culinary artistry with comfort food in a symphony of flavours and textures. Our fried pork belly with spanish rice, bok choy and seasonal vegetables is a celebration of indulgence and freshness.


At the heart of this dish lies succulent, crispy-skinned pork belly. It's a culinary masterpiece that balances the contrasting elements of tender meat and crunchy, golden-brown skin. Each bite releases an explosion of rich, smokey flavours, intensified by the satisfying crunch of the pork's exterior.


Nestled beside the star of the show is a bed of aromatic Spanish rice. This rice, cooked to perfection, is infused with a medley of spices that transport your taste buds to the sun-kissed shores of Spain. The grains are fluffy, each carrying a hint of saffron, paprika, and a touch of garlic, adding depth and complexity to the meal.


Complementing this dynamic duo is a colourful array of bok choy and seasonal vegetables, carefully selected to add freshness, vibrancy, and a touch of health-conscious delight to the plate. The vegetables, lightly sautéed to retain their natural crunch and flavour, provide a refreshing contrast to the richness of the pork and the warmth of the rice.


The visual appeal of this dish is as captivating as its taste. The golden-brown pork belly glistens with its crispy exterior, while the Spanish rice and vegetables burst with a riot of colours, creating a plate that is as much a feast for the eyes as it is for the palate.


Every bite of our fried pork belly with Spanish rice and seasonal vegetables is a journey through a world of flavours and textures, an exquisite blend of indulgence and wholesome goodness. Whether you're savouring it as a comforting weeknight dinner or a special occasion treat, this dish promises a memorable dining experience that satisfies the senses in every way.
