Earl of Hindh @ Sentosa Cove

Located at Quayside Isle in Sentosa Cove, Earl of Hindh offers North Indian fine dining in a quaint, private setting:

Earl of Hindh is located on the second floor of Quayside Isle, facing the pier

The restaurant is set up by three couples, bonded together by their common love of good food and drinks. During my visit with Rachel and Asher, I was hosted by one of the partner, Ravi, a really friendly and wonderful host.

Ravi shared that their concept for the restaurant was to introduce quality North Indian cuisine into Singapore, featuring a mix of traditional dishes as well as some ingredients which are not commonly found in other establishments. Wine and beer pairing comes as part of the entire experience, with the owners doing the samplings themselves to fine tune it to perfection.

The decor of the restaurant is a mix of traditional Indian designs and modern features, similarly reflected in the menu.

Below are the dishes which we sampled. Note that these were specially prepared in tasting portions and may be in smaller quantity than when you order from the menu:

Papadum to start the meal

Mango and salted lassi
Naans with assorted dips
Assorted curry dips for the naan
Dessert
Mini Earl-E-Hindh Naan, specially made for Asher. It is made with seomolina flour and milk, filled with chopped-up dried fruit and is priced at S$12 for a regular serving.

Asher don’t usually take indian food, but he really loved the food at Earl of Hindh

Price is on the steep side, but you pay for quality and excellent service. A review by veteran Straits Times food critic, Wong Ah Yoke, gave the restaurant a whopping four out of five stars for its cuisine. 

The Dariyai Tikka – salmon marinated in a mix of herbs such as fennel, cheese, lemon juice and honey (S$32), is a must-try. I am not usually a fan of cooked salmon, but this is seriously good. Cooked salmon usually comes with a strong fishy smell and the oily texture makes it worse. Here, the style of cooking blends the flavour together cleanly.

The Earl-E-Hindh’s Kakori (S$44), their signature minced lamb kebab dish is another must-try, infused with a variety of spices and grilled to perfection.

Honestly, all the meat dishes were fantastic – rich in flavours and strong in textures.

The curries and gravies which are eaten with the naans were delightful too.  There is a wide variety to choose from in the menu:

Gravies and dips

Good North Indian fine dining restaurants are hard to come by in Singapore and here’s one to go to for a special treat or when you simply have a craving.

The service is top-notch and you can gather it from their reviews on TripAdvisor and HungryGoWhere. The staff and owners are happy to make recommendations and share more details on each of the dishes. Additionally, if you alert them ahead of your visit, they are prepared to go the extra miles in terms of catering for different dining needs for children or meal preferences.

More details on Earl of Hindh are available on the official website and official facebook page.
