Brought my parents and brother to Soup restaurant on a Sunday afternoon around 1pm. It was their first time there and my second time. As I recalled, the chicken rice was quite good.
We were given seats very promptly. The ambience was cosy and not over-noisy in the restaurant. Servce was excellent as our tea was refilled without asking and when we asked for chilli , it was served to us promptly as well.
We, of course ordered their hot favourite: Samsui Ginger Chicken
The chicken was tender and boneless. best of all, it went very well with cabbage. The cabbage was so fresh and sweet that I couldn't help wondering how they prepared the cabbage.
This is the restaurant's self-made tofu- Hometown Tofu. Crispy on the outside and tender inside. The sauce was appetising and went very well with rice. Too bad, it's such a small portion. Would have loved to order another one, if we hadn't ordered other dishes.
Poached Baby spinach-conpoy in century and salted egg stock. There are 3 types of eggs in this dish: poached eggs, century eggs and salted egg. I am usually quite sceptical when coming to this types of dishes because usually the favour of the dish would be overwelmed by the century egg. However, I was able to accept this dish served in this restaurant. They were quite generous with the salted egg portions and the dish was not overwelmed by the century egg. The dish was also not salty. My brother took many spoonfuls of the soup.
We also ordered a lotus soup, but it is nothing fanciful.
The price we paid is considerably lower than other restaurants and the service is excellent, crediting to the restaurant's management in having enough staff to manage the restaurant comfortably. My brother commented that he definitely will come back again.
