The newest stall in Chomp Chomp is Irama, which has a menu that could be best described as ‘curiously all over the place’. They have Ramly burgers, Hokkien popiah, baked oysters, baked prawns and bingsu (Korean shaved ice dessert). Like I said, all over the place.⠀
⠀
While Ramly burgers are nice, my eyes were firmly fixed upon the Baked Cheese Japanese Oysters, which were rather reasonable at twelve dollars flat for four. It may not be easily visible under the bountiful blanket of melted cheese, but these oysters are of sizeable stature and they are flawlessly fresh. They are baked just right and retain most of their size, and the melted cheese adds extra saltiness & richness to the already umami oysters. Irama had the foresight to add some spring onions to the oysters to add some vibrancy to the deeply umami cheese & oysters, which does keep the richness under control.⠀

While Irama has a eclectic menu, the menu certainly suits the demands of the crowd at Chomp Chomp, and I’ll eventually get around to trying the rest of the menu.
