($10.90) comes with a side and drink. I did saw and passby store before during the past. But I decided to try something different instead this round of time. I felt that butter chicken was too much creamy and milky texture plus chicken batter was too much also.

($4.30) it's under their signature desserts but i seldom eat their dessert unless got sudden craving for dessert. it's slightly sweet for me but then they give a lot of ingredients especially going end of the day.

Victorian style looking room with grand looking chairs and a fake fireplace. There’s even a stool for a doggie. But the downside was that it was pretty warm and stuffy inside.

In the run up to Chinese New Year, I was wondering where to have a nice new year family dinner. Google decided to throw me a bone and suggested @tunglokgroup A La Carte Deluxe Seafood Buffet, which offers an impressive all you can eat selection of Chinese staples at $59.80++ per person. The variety on offer on the menu was incredible, but the individual dishes themselves didn’t inspire the same level of awe.⠀

Each table gets one serving of several special dishes, which includes Tung Lok’s famous chili crab. The crab portion is tailored to the number of patrons per table, so since it was only my dad & I, we got a claw, two legs and a whole lot of chili crab gravy. Pro tip: pull up to Tung Lok’s buffet with a big group for maximum crab. I’m not sure if it’s a difference in the standards between outlets, or if there was a drop in standard, but the chili crab wasn’t as sumptuous as I remember it to be. The gravy was a little watery, and it was lacking a bit of salt. Fortunately, the crab itself was fantastically fresh, so that’s a bit of a save.⠀

It’s not all doom and gloom though, as the Braised Whole Abalone With Vegetables in Oyster Sauce and the Sautéed Scallops and Broccoli in XO Sauce were downright delish with flawlessly fresh & expertly cooked seafood starring in both dishes. The two most impressive dishes to feature from the buffet menu were the stellar Salmon Sashimi and the Deep Fried Sea Bass with Light Soy Sauce, and I wasn’t expecting either to be such a hit.⠀

The salmon was sliced to a tasteful thickness, and it was so breathtakingly fresh it puts sushi restaurants to shame. I never expected Tung Lok to serve up such sublime sashimi, but I’m glad they did. As for the sea bass, there was a distressing lack of sauce, but the fish was fantastically fried and remarkably fresh, boasting moist, firm flesh that was just begging to be devoured.⠀

Even though the dishes aren’t particularly superb, the extent of the spread alone makes the $59.80++ price of admission fairly worth it.

The nasi lemak with fried chicken wing, crunchy peanuts & anchovies, fried egg, and signature sweet chili sauce is a weekend special worth savoring.
Delicious and satisfying.
Highly recommended.

My umpteenth visit to Fong Sheng Hao!

Came here for a sumptuous breakfast to reward ourselves since it is the new year!

-Taiwan Special Pork Patty ($6.90)
-Pork Egg Cheese ($6.90)
-Hot Milk Tea ($3 for L size)
-Iced Cane Flavored Black Tea ($3.40)

Out of all the food I have tried here so far, I prefer their toasts and Iced Cane Flavored Black Tea! Love the sweet and soft milk loaf bread!

Available from now to 24 February, one of my favourite Singapore heritage cuisine restaurants, Rempapa, has a lineup of 5 CNY-exclusive dinner dishes and we ordered 3 of them to try. Being a Teochew kia, the steamed red grouper is my favourite which comes with a tangy broth of salted vegetables cooked with chicken stock, and as the CNY greeting of 年年有鱼, this is a must order. The vegetable dish of stir-fried king is a Cantonese inspired classic of garlic chives, pickled celtuce and jumbo dried shrimp among the other ingredients. This dish is all about the wok hei and flavour. Lastly the mandarin orange steamed kueh comes in cute bite sized pieces for you to huat in the new year.

we ordered the 5 course meal as a family, my main was the truffle carbonara :) truffle flavour was very fragrant

okay so this was so good i wrote a lemon8 post about it. BUT TLDR: curry is rich and milky, chicken is so tender (and given generously), potato chunks are aplenty and the taupok soaks up the curry so well. try it!

i wrote in another review about how much i love ajumma’s so i won’t go too much into my love for it here.

- crispy samgyeopsal with scrambled egg on rice: delicious!! elaborated in another post so won’t do it again

- kimchi pancake: was a little oily but i liked that there was a distinct sour-spiciness of the kimchi that you could taste through the pancake

- army stew: also a very classic dish that never goes wrong, with baked beans, spam, hotdog, vegetables, kimchi, enoki and maggie. i however prefer the kimchi pork stew!
