↶(/`∇´)ψ A visit to Naked for Satan

2 Oct 2022

Hey everyone! I went to try food from one of Melbourne's most popular bars the other day, and thought of giving it a try since they had a $13 lunch deal for all items on the menu. We didn't order any drinks as I can't drink alcohol but here are the 3 delicious items we ordered that day;



Soft shell Crab Slider in yuzu mayo

First up was the Soft shell crab slider consisting of Tempura Soft Shell 🦀, Watercress, Yuzu, Remoulade, Milk Bun). The soft shell crab tempura was crunchy with juicy insides, cooked to perfection. However, it was lacking some seasoning - noticeably wasn't given any salt nor other spices. For the 🥛 bun, there are other places that use higher quality milk buns, theirs was quite standard. The other components were fairly good as they should be but did not uplift the dish as a whole making it falls quite average.


Beef short ribs with Mash potatoes

Next, the Beef Short Rib Braised in Sherry with mash 🥔. I would highly recommend this one, definitely gives a bang for your buck 💰. The Beef was tender and flavourful - It also slid off the rib very easily!
The smooth creamy mash potato goes well with the sherry beef juice which compliments the beef nicely 👌. Simple and satisfying~


Duck Dish

Lastly, the Pan Seared Duck Breast with Beetroot pure and Beetroot Cooked in Duck Fat, topped with 🍎 & Candied Hazelnut Salad + Duck Jus. This one is a hit-or-miss dish for me as I am not a big fan of beetroots. Nonetheless, I surely understand the appeal and appreciates the techniques used.
The Duck was juicy, golden brown with crispy skin, the jus made it very flavourful✨. Beetroot was cooked and cleaned well, its usual strong earthy flavour was mellowed out properly to not overpower the duck. The salad added a nice touch of sweetness and when eaten all together it created a well-balanced flavour; Fattiness from the duck, crunch & freshness of the candied hazelnut apple salad plus the earthy flavour of the beetroot, surprisingly blended quite well.
