Sweet, tangy, juicy and a tad sour. These are the flavor elements you can find in the most popular salad around town -
Rojak. The name implies "mixture" in malay. It's a blend of fruits and vegetables generously coated with a sweet dressing and drizzled with lots of chopped peanuts. I've been meaning to try this traditional salad for a long time now and finally I had the opportunity to sample a plate at the newly opened Nex shopping centre in Serangoon. Texture wise, it's quite playful in the palate granted that the crunch of the fruits and vegetables are preserved. On the overall taste though, it's way too sweet for me. It's beyond my capacity to consume a plate.
