Mustard, a Punju-Bong fusion!

Mustard, the only commendable Bengali restaurant (and that too, half Bengali) is one which serves both Punjabi and Bengali fare as "mustard" is a common ingredient for many popular Bengali as well as Punjabi dishes. It has a pretty decent list of authentic Bengali items to choose from - Mochar Ghonto and all that jazz and an award-winning Chingri Maacher Malai Curry (prawns cooked in coconut milk, and in this case served in a coconut and also having coconut oil as one of the major ingredients) is not worth the hype and is pretty much dubious. The snack we ordered was pretty good and the main courses just average. The dessert tasted totally different from what it's supposed to taste like. So if you're craving for Bengali food in Singapore, do give Mustard a shot, but let me warn you, the portions are going to be paltry, the taste mediocre and it's going to burn a big (I mean really big) hole in your pocket. Unless of course, you have an aunt who owns the restaurant, I know a guy like that, but not well enough to get free meals from Mustard. :P
