Ouch! Felt the pinch from the šø not from the pincers simply because there isnāt really much of a significant pincer to speak of. The āpincerā you see in photos is a small pincer with a small pinch of meat hanging dangerously, seemingly at risk of falling into the chilli broth and disappear. Thereāre white shreds in the chilli sauce but to be honest, thereās not much texture to the bite and therefore, Iām half suspecting itās egg whites rather than crab meat? Considering how āeconomicalā this is priced, it might well be that case! The bread bowl is made of soft pillowy bread (ie not the kind with baguette-like crust that you get from The Soup Spoon), hence you should really slurp up your meal before your bowl crumbles from soaking up the weight of the liquid). My colleague found the chilli sauce a lilā too spicy for her liking and she didnāt finish her portion. I thought it was okay! For the price and quality, Iād invest my $ for a decent bread bo
Probably one of the cheapest Yam Paste around at $3.00, but possibly one of the ones that is the most off from the usual.

Went for the Hakka Salt Baked Chicken which felt less salty as compared to other variants that I have tried ā they don't seem to be particularly heavy-handed with the salt here, though I would have actually preferred the chicken to have come a little saltier. The flesh was actually considerably tender, though the rice felt a little undercooked and stiff especially in a specific area of the mound that was served on the plate. Strangely, the soup was actually rather flavourful; possibly even more so that the chicken itself ā not particularly salty, though definitely a bit heavier on the palate than usual.
Almost the local version of warabi mochi š

Thumbs up. One of the better ones I've eaten.
It ended up in someone else's mouth.
