I've heard lots of good things about Keng Eng Kee (KEK) Seafood in Bukit Merah and decided to give it a try along with a family birthday celebration. It was easy to make a phone reservation just a day before, but do call earlier if you have firmed up plans, to ensure air-con availability. 1. Salted Egg Crab $70/kg *highly recommended*Crabs seem to command better prices that rare minerals like gold or diamonds! It was just 2 years ago when 1kg of crabs cost $50, but nevertheless, these Indian c

One of the long-standing ZiChar restaurant established many years ago, the place has garnered steadily more and more customers over the years. Indeed the food quality has been maintained so far which keeps people patronizing continually.Went there for dinner under my friend's invitation for a Zi Char treat. And ahh gladly I left the place happily satiated The Fried noodles looked really inviting with the runny egg yolk served on top. Taste-wise it didn't disappoint either and it wasn't too oily

Will go back and try the crab and other dishes. Very good value for $$. The dishes to try are the 1) Mingzhu roll, 2) Homecard Beancurd, 3) Garlic Sauteed vegetables.This is a very clean coffee shop that spans across a walkway. One section has air-conditioning and the other which we sat in is the al-fresco coffee shop style. Definitely good and economical for bringing parents and grandparents for a family meal.More details and photos at http://www.eatprayflying.com/tzechar-review-keng-eng-kee-se

Located at Alexandra Village (near Queensway Shopping Centre), Keng Eng Kee restaurant has been frequented by my family for years.This restaurant has been on numerous newspaper articles, and even on the television.Fried youtiao with their mayonnaise sauce is a must order. Likewise, the pig liver dish was done really well.Another good to order is the cuttlefish kangkong.Not a fan of their coffee pork ribs though.Anyway, food here are decently priced - it costs a little less than $100 for 7 pax

This special family dinner was a makan treat of my mom’s workplace bonus.The service was slow due to the overwhelming crowd,we had to reserve and wait for half an hour. And upon being seated , had to wait another half an hour before we got our orders in.虾棗 PRAWN ROLLS –It was hot and crispy, the filling was very peppery but perfect combination of crunchy chestnut bits, carrot, minced pork and you can even see a prawn stuffed in. Dipped in sweet sauce (I asked for more as they gave me a miserable

Heh Chor (Fried prawn fitters)Steam FishFresh fish and doesnt have fishy smell. Marmite ChickenAs recommended by the staff, chicken is generously coated with marmite sauce. Nice tasty experience.Vege stir fried with garlicAs we have been ordering meaty meals, this plate of vege is the compliments to all meat.Fried Cereal PrawnWell battered and fried with

Alight at Queenstown MRT, took SBS bus 195 and alight at bus-stop opposite of Queenway shopping centre (Popular place for cheap sport shoes) and walk a short distance over to Blk 124, you can see this Zi Char stall located.Their signboard also seems to highlight that their stall was actually in newspaper and some food variety show (e.g Straits Times, 煮炒来咯！2 and etc) so I guess their dishes should not be bad quality. There are not really a lot of people eating there so we have no problem getting

I went there with my friend's family. We ordered three flavours of crabs :the best : spicy crab ( it tastes not spicy at all. at first I thought the sauce was made of tomato. I like this flavour a lot!!!!) 2nd :sesame paste crab ( actually I don't know how they call this crab but to me the sauce taste like sesame paste, quite good. )Worst : Black pepper crab ( it is the worst sauce I ever tried... very saltish!! )

My family and I saw MP Mr Lim Swee Say with a large group of what-we-believe-are-bodyguards having their dinner in Keng Eng Kee Seafood coffeeshop! Having visiting this place for the first time, immediately we gain a good impression of the shop because of their presence. I mean, governmental officials sure know where to source for good food isn't it? There were A LOT OF customers on a Friday evening, 8pm. We had to sit in one corner where there was no fan and far from the waiters/waitresses. Me

It seems like most of us at home are quite addicted to the food by this zi char place so we came back again for its dishes. We ordered about the same dishes as what we ordered the last time we are here and the standards of the food still remained there as the food is still good. We ordered one thing different this time, which is the coffee pork ribs. The coffee pork ribs are fried to perfection such that the meat is still quite tender and moist and the flour is not too much. The coffee flavour i

The signature dish of this restaurant are its salted egg yolk crabs, but we ordered the chilli crabs instead since more people at the table preferred the chilli crabs. The crabs are very fresh and can be peeled off the shell easily. It is also very succulent. The chilli sauce was very tasty as well. I loved drizzling the sauce over my rice. Besides the chilli crabs, another dish which we ordered and is well-liked among the table is the sambal kangkong. The cooking time is just right resulting in

I've been around this area since young and I've never been to this place. Reviews have been good for this restaurant so we decided to try for dinner one night. 1) Watercress Soup - this is the soup of the day and it's a double-boiled version. It's super yummy so I figured they must have added quite a bit of ajinomoto. 2) Fried Ikan Bilis Spinach - They did this simple dish very well and the deep-fried ikan bilis sprinkled on top was awesome. 3) Claypot Pig Liver - The textual is excellent! The s

On yet another visit to Keng Eng Kee Seafood, my family and I ordered an Onion Omelette.The omelette was served with generous amounts of onions within, giving it a nice crunch. The onions were also cooked well enough so that it didn't taste raw when eaten with the omelette. The omelette served was also of an appropriate thickness.I doubt that anyone could ever go wrong with Onion Omelettes! As far as I'm concerned, all of the ones I've tasted everywhere has been good. So if you're ever unsure of

During a family dinner a while back, we tried out Keng Eng Kee Seafood which is located a short walk away from Queensway Shopping Centre.Being a huge fan of Fried Chicken, it was a must try when we saw it on the menu. And it didn't let us down!The fried chicken was served in big pieces and was fried to perfection. Crispy on the outside and juicy and succulent on the inside. I couldn't lay my hands off the chicken and had one too many pieces!!However, the Fried Chicken was a tad oily but I would
