Located a stone throw away from @bugisjunctionxbugisplus , @kingofpaofan is known for pairing their flavorful seafood broth with fresh seafood such as lobster, prawns, fish and clams at reasonable prices.
Their ๐๐๐๐๐จ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐จ ๐ ๐๐ง ($7.50) comes with ๐๐ง๐๐จ๐ ๐ฅ๐ง๐๐ฌ๐ฃ๐จ, ๐๐ก๐๐ข๐จ and ๐๐๐ช๐ฃ๐ ๐จ ๐ค๐ ๐๐ง๐๐๐ ๐๐๐จ๐ soaked in a rich and umami seafood broth. As the seafood broth was simmered for at least 10 hours using prawn heads, fish and pork bones, itโs no surprise that their broth contains all the seafood umami goodness! As such, the soup was packed full of umami-ness with subtle sweetness, making way for a very hearty affair.
Next, I tried the ๐๐ฎ๐จ ๐๐ญ๐ฒ๐ฅ๐ ๐๐๐จ ๐ ๐๐ง ($6.50) which consists of both ๐๐ง๐๐๐ ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐จ๐ก๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐จ๐, giving you the best of both worlds. Ideal for fish soup fans, the broth was comforting and flavorful. But I personally prefer the seafood pao fan soup as it embodies a fuller and more complex flavor.
Each bowl of pao fan was topped with fried egg floss and a sprinkle of golden-brown crispy fried rice. Love the added crunch from those crispy fried rice!
I do agree that not many places serve pao fan and even if they do, the price point is slightly higher. I like it that @kingofpaofan has a range of offerings, from ๐๐๐ค๐ฃ๐ค๐ข๐๐๐๐ก ๐ค๐ฅ๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ฃ๐จ like Clam Pao Fan ($4.50) to more ๐ก๐ช๐ญ๐ช๐ง๐๐ค๐ช๐จ ๐ค๐ฅ๐ฉ๐๐ค๐ฃ๐จ like Lobster Pao Fan ($18). Definitely a place to check out for your pao fan cravings!
