Shopping nearby and read that Barbacoa got a good review so we popped over for lunch. Our meal started with: 1) Cream of corn soup — it tasted freshly made, with bits of corn in it still. Nice 2) Traditional nacho — generous serving with cheese and salsa sauce to make it taste good 3) Ribs with Asian Sambal sauce — I found the meat tender but slight on the dry side. I wished for more Sambal sauce for that ‘wetter’ look and tase. Otherwise, it’s good tasting. Our meal is topped with a complimentary ice cream. Sweet ending. :) Best part of the meal is that for a place who doesn’t charge service charge, their service is actually pretty darn solid!!! We won’t come all the way down but if in the area, sure.

From the people behind the famous City Satay, Barbacoa is –naturally– a grill place serving meats and other dishes, taking on more of a Western approach to its cuisine in this restaurant. You can expect to have your usual satays, steaks and then some here. They do their grilled meats pretty well. For starters, you can try their Skewers combo that comes with Honey mustard chicken, Jamaican chicken, Mediterranean chicken and Cajun beef for different flavours. I also quite liked the Buffalo chicken wings with its subtle tart vinegar taste against the char-grilled wings(those were huge!). However, some of their other meats can be a little overcooked so you might want to be careful about that one. The meats aside you will find sides like baked potato, fries, milkshakes to go along with your main. I especially enjoy the see-through kitchen concept that allows us to see the chef grilling your meat over the flame, makes it feel very authentic, I must say.
