Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiild. I can never pull off my no-rice diet whenever I’m dining at Wildflour. I love quite a number of items in their menu but there’s simply one dish that I cannot NOT order. When it was just the Fort branch, its stage name was Steak and Egg. Kitayama Flat Iron Steak is served all sliced evenly served atop kimchi rice and poached egg. I got this thing with kimchi rice – fatal attraction.
I’ve visited Wild Flour constantly especially when it opened its branch at the Podium. Like many other things (because I have been ridiculously busy), I have failed to blog about Wild Flour until this food bite. Well, you know, for those who follow me on Instagram and Twitter, I’ve been ridiculously busy… eating. 22-lb gain, check!
Kimchi Rice with Braised Short Rib and Poached Egg P465
Same kimchi fried rice that has mild spice and tangy flavors but instead of grilled steak, Wild Flour has changed it to slow-cooked moist and tender braised short rib. The braised short rib makes a better marriage with the kimchi rice. The fork-tender almost falling apart beef is braised in this sweet, rich and intense marinade perfectly balancing with the spicy pickled flavor of the rice.
The texture of crunchy cut cabbage and rice contrasts beautifully with the fragile meat. The poached egg adds that buttery creamy aspect, mellowing the spice and enriching all else. Every bite is every bit sensual.
