SO GOOD! 100% recommend
Pictured is the Five Oars Waffles ($18) which comes with a tower of sourdough waffles, topped with strawberries, pecan and vanilla ice cream, surrounded with oats, coffee powder, ground almond and mascarpone. A side of espresso sauce is given to enhance the flavour and experience. My only feedback would be to replace the artificial vanilla ice cream with actual ice cream made with vanilla beans and give us more of that nice sweet-caramel espresso sauce.

Being first timers to such dishes, we both got the Mie Keriting and for me I got the Babi Konplit Spesial ($9.88) which comes with the full works of house speciality minced pork, charsiew, roast pork, a giant fried wanton and vegetables, with a side soup with wantons. The roasts are nothing to shout about as there are other great Cantonese ones out there but the star of the show has got to be the al dente noodles that has been tossed in a pork lard oil for the ultimate enjoyment.

Intensely aromatic, while not lacking in umami. The sambal belachan? was unique, jam like texture and while you expect it to be bitter, it was but a hint. Doesn't go easy on the heat ofc but it was sweet and very bright.
The chili really elevated the nasi ulam and the heat creeps up on you. First time trying this and find that it's absolutely delicious, despite the fear that it might be all aromatics and no flavour just from the picture
[ Food Week — Heritage Restaurants ] Over these couple of years, I’ve been surprised time and time again by how different similar dishes can be when recreated by different dialect groups. And after tasting the variants, I’ve become even firmer a believer that we’ve to preserve these individual threads of heritage lest they become products of distant memory.
One of the dishes I tend to associate with the wrong dialect group is the quintessential fish (head) steamboat. It became one of my fav comfort foods as I was growing up, and whenever there were any signs of impending rain, I’d strongar-, suggest we get it for dinner.
So imagine my surprise when a certain someone’s fam decided to bring me to have fish head charcoal steamboat… in one of their fav Hainanese heritage restaurants, Jin Wee!
Located in Siglap in the unit next to the area’s Wine Connection stall (pst, you can cross-order from JW to there and vice versa btw!), as a testament to its reputation, meal times are characterised by extending to the far edge of its territory. Even then, you can still find hordes of eager patrons — families, couples, and friends alike — perched at its perimeter hawking for seats in eager anticipation.
As someone who never really had Hainanese food I was astounded by the restaurant’s popularity.
Oh, and they’ve these huge porcelain pots that sit amidst diners in the alfresco area as well. Housing both soups and pots of their renowned Jiao Hua Chicken, it’s very worth the order if you’ve the stomach space for it.
We ended up with an order of their Red Grouper Charcoal Steamboat, Hai Nan Pork Chop, Claypot Chicken, and Chap Chye.
The pork chops were as delightful as I’d expected them to be — the crunch they boasted under all the sauce would give even a good Korean fried chicken a run for its money! The fish steamboat had me ladling bowl after bowl because of how flavourful it was (defo on par, if not more, than the Teochew ver). The main difference was a subtle simmer of sweetness and the slightly thicker, almost milky texture courtesy of the sheer amount of yam present. The other two dishes were fab too: The veg was fresh and crisp, and the chicken was smooth and tender!
My first ever Pao Fan experience, I gave to @shaobbq, and boy was I in for a treat!
We had the large sized Mixed Seafood Pao Fan which they’ve considerately packed in two separate containers: one, a milky seafood broth which I couldn’t get enough of, and two: crispy fried rice, fluffy white rice with an array of seafood (lala, prawns, squid and plump oysters).
This meal ticked all the right boxes for me: texturally crunchy, full of flavour, temperature; still piping hot when we ate and just wholesomely full on comfort.

Velvety texture, generous with their ginkgo nuts, enjoyed the extra touch of fragrance from their addition of osmanthus flowers.
My love for Yam Paste is abundant. This one from SHAO was just a tad too sweet for me, but I would order it again as a sweet end to my SHAO teochew meal.

I love the creamy home-made curry gravy that’s fragrant yet not overwhelming. Paired with a huge tender chicken leg and chunks of potato, this dish goes so well with a bowl of rice!
