Hooked on Heads. The easiest way to get there from Upper Thomson Road is to enter from Jalan Todak and followed by a U-shaped turn to get to Sin Ming Road.

Stir-fried Garlic Kang Kong ($8.00), which is supposed to be sambal kang kong. We requested for the stir-fried and here comes the crunchy vegetable with a tint of garlic taste.

Mixed Assorted Vegetables ($8.00) is another "green" dish to make our meal seems as though healthier. What I like about both their vegetable dish is that Hooked on Heads do not tend to overcook.

Seafood Tofu ($10.00). I love tofu dishes that are stewed and have those super thick gravy that can also goes along very well with the rice! Hooked on Heads did not disappoint me, and quite like the feel of the soft tofu rumbling in my mouth before slipping down my throat.

Prawn Paste Chicken ($10.00). The savory taste of the juicy chicken and crunching sounds of the fried skin is too hard to resist. This plate of nicely fried wings is a must-order item when in Hooked on Heads.

Curry Fish Head ($42.00 for whole head). If you are dining in Hooked on Heads, their fish head is present on most tables, and the smell of it is circulating around the restaurant.

Having a little mouth-itch, I separately ordered the Banana Fritters Special ($7.00). To be honest, it wasn't quite what I expected, and I seriously prefer the usual deep-fried banana as a whole. But having tagged the word "special", it has to be unique in a way? Dough is not fried to crisp, but the adding of icing sugar and dipped with mayonnaise and maple syrup gives it a different taste, and I felt as though I was munching on the McDonald's pancakes! Banana inside is not totally fried, and it does seems to be a wonderful snack or dessert for kids.

Hooked on Heads seems like a usual tze char stall, but the food variety is quite an exclusive to them as we don't see such amount of delicacies sold in other restaurants. Definitely a return trip for me again, to try on their other food which I believe I will have no doubt on the same standard when served to my table. For a moment, I thought I went into a Peranakan tze char stall, and at a time, I thought I was in a Thai cuisine restaurant too! It is like a mixture of some and being blended into a place for diners to enjoy delicacies from different cultures, and it was indeed an enjoyable meal.

Dinner at Hooked on Heads, the seating is spacious and the decor is simple. The moment you walk in you get a sense of home thus it is very cozy. We chose to have a simple dinner so we ordered the pineapple fried rice to share with my partner. It is not very oily, the pineapple is fresh and nice. The rice is also not too sticky. Overall, pricing is also reasonable.

i swear it looks entirely barbaric to be drinking up the last drop but when it comes to food like this, let's just leave face out of the picture.

For me anyway. And don't worry if you don't have enough ppl to finish up an order of the fish head.

For those who don't like bones anyway, order the fish fillet.

My brother the one who has a phobia of bones was happy with this.

And the curry here is simply WIPE THE PLATE clean yums.

The tasty homemade seafood beancurd comes in a close second.

It's got an awesomely crispy batter and when you cut it open, you see an interior of tofu with actual seafood.

as opposed to those magnifying glass sized ones.

 Ask for more of the sweet thai chilli sauce.

You'll need it.

Ala Carte buffet for dinenr

I went to Hooked on Heads with my family to celebrate my sisters birthday. We ordered a variety of dishes like the Curry Fish Head, Green Curry, Chilli Kangkong and many others. The overall taste of the food was good. I like the green curry best. However, the desserts like the mango sticky rice, bur bur cha cha and mango sago were not as spectacular.The restaurant offers a lunch and dinner ala carte buffet that is extremely worth it. Less than $30 per adult not inclusive of drinks and desserts

The restaurant offers a lunch and dinner ala carte buffet that is extremely worth it. Less than $30 per adult not inclusive of drinks and desserts. Rice is also free flow.

Taste Test: 8/10
