Island Radio is my fave restaurant in the new Wunderlich Lane precinct with a menu covering all the South East Asian hits.
Some absolute must orders are the incredible scallop silk with Andy’s sambal; the flakey potato curry puff, the prawn roti and the toasted rice bread with a slathering of whipped sambal butter.
The duck lumpia is satisfyingly crunchy and has an unexpected Culinary Class Wars shredded wonton wrapper presentation.
The sate plate is great for sharing and comes with pork, chicken and ox tongue skewers.
The yellow rock flathead curry is beautifully fragrant and perfect over the Sinagang fried rice and the crispy lamb ribs are swirled with a glorious caramelised sambal.
For dessert there’s Kopiko tres leches and the presentation of the pineapple boat elicits laughs at the table but it is delicious and filled with pineapple jam, fresh mango, whipped cream and coconut.
