Tonight the family is having dinner at this restaurant. The restaurant is packed but lucky I have made reservation earlier. Shin Yeh originates from Taipei and opens an outlet in Singapore through a joint venture together with Tung Lok Group. It is follows with this bistro outlet through another joint venture. This outlet offers cheaper menu, compares to the first Shin Yeh outlet in Singapore.
The menu has a wide spread of simple Taiwanese dishes ranging from Oyster Omelette to Eight Treasures Ice Mountain.
Shih Yeh Special Combination ($23.90++)It is one of the new dishes in the menu. In this dish, there is homemade Taiwan Sausage, Crisp-fried Fresh Oysters served with Dip and Deep-fried Lean Pork with Red Fermented Rice Paste. The sausage is actually rice in the shape of a sausage and looks interesting. The deep fried pork tastes like roasted pork and very crispy and tasty.
The Soup of the Day ($5.90++) is Lotus Root with Pork Rib Soup, The soup is full flavoured with tender meat inside.
Another soup which we have is Meatballs with Carrot Soup ($5.90++) which is full of carrot cubes and flavourful too.
Fried Vermicelli with Pumpkin ($9.90++)It is one of the recommended dishes and uses Hsinchu Rice Vermicelli. With just shredded vegetables, the noodles tastes smooth and flavourful.
Vermicelli Soup with Yam ($6.90++)The soup base is very flavourful and is soaked up by the vermicelli.
Taiwan-style Rice with Soya Sauce Lean Pork ($5.90++) is one of the recommended dishes. Looks simple and plain. The pork is well seasoned and tender.
Braised Chicken with Garlic and Basil Leaves served in Claypot ($13.90++)It is one of the new dishes in the menu. Although I do not like the taste of basil but this dish is very flavourful and not overwhelmed by the taste of basil.
For dessert, we have Mango Pudding and Milk over Mango Shaved Ice ($9.90++) which is quite a big serving with chucky mango cubes. We have problems finishing it.
Another dessert which we have is Almond Cream with Yam Cubes ($4.90++). The almond cream is smooth and thick, with the chewy yam cubes for extra texture.Overall the food is not bad. But the place is quite crowded and noisy. Also have quite a bit of problem of getting the attention of the staff.
