Although the restaurant is crowded, we are showed to a table after a short waiting time. This time round, we are sharing table with another group. The place is quite packed, especially it is Chinese new year holiday season.From the Chef's Recommendation section of the menu, we have Braised Chicken Feet With Abalone ($5.00++).

From the Chef's Recommendation section of the menu, we have Braised Chicken Feet With Abalone ($5.00++). As the seats are placed quite near to each other. The staff has a hard difficult time of negotiating the way, while serving the dish. In the end, the hot sauce from the other dishes from the staff's hand being poured on mom and the neighbouring aunty. Mom got quite a hot soak down her back. The staff is in panic, especially she is kept been scolded by the neighbouring aunty. Tissues is brought out to wipe the sauce on the clothes. It is after quite some times when one of the staffs brings the wet towels to clean up. Feel that the happy atmosphere is kind of spoils by the incident. Comparing to the previous time which I ordered this dish, the serving seems to have reduced. The feet are not as fat and juicy as previously. From the Big 4 Heavenly Kings Section of the menu, we have
Baked Bun with BBQ Pork ($4.50++/3pcs)The buns are quite soft today.
Pan Fried Carrot Cake ($4.50++/ 3pcs)Similar to the Plaza Singapura outlet, it is quite soft. I prefer a firmer texture.
Steamed Egg Cake ($3.80++/ piece)The serving seems to have reduced in size. Still tastes quite soft and fluffy.
Vermicelli Roll with Pig's Liver ($5.50++)The version here is slightly better than the one at Plaza Singapure's as the pig's liver is not overcooked here.
From the Steamed Section of the Menu, we have
Pork Dumpling with Shrimp ($5.00+/ 4 pieces)Tastes average, and looks quite expensive for plain looking siew mai.
Dumpling Teochew Style ($4.00++/3 pieces)The skin is quite smooth and have a nutty taste with peanut in it.
Steam Spinach Dumpling with Shrimp ($3.80++/ 3 pieces)Tastes quite juicy and nice.
From the Rice Section of the menu, we have
Rice with Chicken, Sausage & Mushroom ($6.00++)Served in a metal bowl, I feel that it will lose the heat easily.
Glutinous Rice Dumpling ($5.00++)Tastes average.
Lastly in the Desserts Section of the Menu, we have
Mango Pomelo Sago ($5.00++)The dessert tastes quite thick.
Tonic Medlar & Osmanthus Cake (Cold) ($3.50++/ 3 pieces)It seems to overwhelmed by the flavouring, and tastes a bit strong and artificial in taste. The colour also looks a bit dark.
Overall it is quite a disappointing experience. Due to mom's incident, the cashier waives off the 2 glasses of barley water ($2.00/ glass) from the bill. I feel that the restaurant is quite poor in handling the incident, which leaves quite a bad taste. I would think twice before coming here to dine again.
