During this rainy season, one dish I crave is fish head steamboat, and the one from this zi char stall really doesn't disappoint. Their cook is good, making other zi char dishes really good as well!
The Fish Head Steamboat ($35) came in a big pot with numerous vegetable ingredients and fish head slices. There may be quite some bones in each of the pieces, but they do have quite some meat as well. The fish head meat had a wonderful bite, with fresh sweet fish flavours coming in. Their soup is really the highlight, with rich robust flavours coming from the anchovies, vegetables and fish head. Its super addictive!
Their BBQ Sotong Squid ($36 for 3, seasonal price) is another of their speciality and I highly recommend getting them. Each squid slice is tender yet chewy and they were packed with so much seafood sweetness and smokiness from the grill. Pair them with their homemade green chilli sauce and it's really perfect.
Even their vegetable dish is worth a mention. Their Stir Fried Potato Leaves ($18 for medium) is fresh and all generously drenched in a robust sauce and the fried preserved vegetables on top made the dish so much more complex with its contrasting crispy texture and the smoky savoury flavours.
Definitely be back again!
