Belly’s Tempura Cod Pandesal Slider: A Bite of Comfort, A Pop of Luxury

Catch a quick taste of this DISH on our Instagram.

At Belly, we’re all about dishes that blend comfort with creativity: flavours you know and love reimagined with a twist. Our Tempura Cod Pandesal Slider with Ikura and Tartar Sauce is exactly that — golden, crispy cod in a soft Filipino bread roll; topped with briny salmon roe (ikura) and creamy tartar. It’s street food meets fine dining in just a few perfect bites.

Pandesal: The Filipino Bread Roll We All Love

The base of this slider is the beloved pandesal: a warm, slightly sweet bread roll that’s a breakfast and snack staple across the Philippines. Ours are baked fresh so they’re soft, fluffy, and ready to cradle that irresistible tempura cod.

Light, Crispy Tempura Cod

Inside, you’ll find cod fillets coated in airy tempura batter; fried to a delicate crisp. The flaky white fish pairs beautifully with the soft pandesal, giving you that contrast of crunch and tenderness in every bite.

Ikura: A Burst of Umami

The slider gets a Japanese-inspired lift with ikura (salmon roe): glistening orange pearls that bring a burst of fresh ocean flavour; a pop of texture that balances the richness of the fish and bread.

Creamy Tartar Sauce to Tie It All Together

Our tartar sauce isn’t just a topping; it’s the element that unites the crisp, the soft, and the briny. With its tangy creaminess, it makes sure every bite is as satisfying as the last.

Why This Slider Stands Out at Belly

The Tempura Cod Pandesal Slider represents what we do best at Belly: blending heritage with innovation. It’s a Filipino classic elevated with Japanese technique and premium ingredients (perfect for sharing, snacking, or pairing with a crisp glass of white wine).
