I have this every other time I'm at maxwell. Why not every time? Because every other time it's sold out! :( but then that just makes me savour it all the more when they have it. And just as luck would have it, this was their last serving for the day! Someone's heard my pleas for a good end to a terrible day. Their Shanghai Nian Gao with seafood.
This is the small portion at $4.
It isn't big on seafood.
But that isn't the main star of this dish.
Their sliced nian gao is and it shines through.
Delightfully chewy yet easily digestible.
The gravy is lightly seasoned and encapsulates wonderfully umami seafood flavours within that makes one want to finish up every last drop of this!
Seafood hor fun is my favourite cze char dish but it's definitely taking a backseat to this. #burpple #hawkerpedia #shanghai #foodporn #savoury
