Dept lunch but felt disappointed...
Out of the above, the signature platter, sambal fish, cereal prawns, and nai bai were nice... As for the rest, below average, probably some tze char places out there can do a better job...
The platter was pretty good, especially the fried baby squid, couldnโt stop eating that!
The sambal fish was something different from what Iโve tried out there. It was dried sambal (and not that oily) on fried fishes, for those who canโt take spicy food, can try to remove the sambal but this was actually quite yum~
Their cereal prawns were good, the prawns were fresh enough and filled with cereal smell, nice...
The nai bai was crunchy and sweet, and quite impressed by the fried enoki mushroom combi, this dish can order...
Here comes those not-so-recommended dishes...
The fish maw with crabmeat was not say very impressive, but decent...
The sea cucumber and abalone were a little too hard and got that fishy smell somehow, I think they need more time to prep their sea cucumber and braise the abalone...
Suggest to skip the heaven & earth pork rib, tasted like over-cooked (chao-tah?) coffee pork rib which left a bitter aftertaste in my mouth. Moreover, the pork ribs were kinda fatty to my likings...
Can also skip the yam with ginko nuts, couldnโt taste / see the ginko, itโs like just yam purรฉe with coconut milk, taste wise...like a waste of my calories...=X
Lastly, the chilli crab, smells good, looks good but...a little too sweet and the buns were rather cold, lower than my expectation, suggest to skip too...
Overall, some hits and some misses, suggest to go for ala carte instead of the set menu since some of the dishes were below average in my opinion...
