I wonder why it took me so long to find this gem. It is at a deserted part of smith street market, same section as the famous Ikan Bilis Yong Tau Food. I was drawn to the smell of fish soup and fried hor fun. When i saw the fire that erupted from the wok while the uncle was frying the hor fun, I knew that this will be good! I know this will certainly achieve the wok hei taste that is unfortunately absent in most hor fun these days. Anyway I order the bittergourd silce fish hor fun. It was certainly a deliciously addictive meal! Will be back to try the other dishes. I wish all hor fun sellers will fry their hor fun on the spot, like this stall, instead of just scooping from a bucket of pre-fried hor fun

 
and pouring gravy over it.

Surprising good Smile Oct 25, 2012

Okay I have to admit that i have no expectations of NYDC, been there a couple of times and thought the food wasnt fantastic. Anyway decided to try it out again as they had an one-for-one offer for main course.

Ordered the medium rare steak and it was as how i like it, medium rare... some places overdo the 'rare' and it becomes overcooked... so I am glad NYDC managed to up the steak pretty nicely.

French fries came out crispy and hot, so another plus point~
Overall a good and value for money experience. Paid about $12 each after discount.

Good food! Smile Aug 21, 2012

Chui Huey Lim revisited again! This is I think the 5th time I am here since its opening beginning of this year. Two reasons whiy i kept coming back. Firstly good food, secondly i had 3 or was it 4 return vouchers after my first visit. My favourite dish of the day was the char kway teow with cockles. It was marvellous. Not too sweet, moist, oily, generous in the amount of cockles. Fattening. Kaleidoscope of wonderful flavours. The dish i like the least was the prawn ball. I felt it was a little blend, not much taste of prawn or anything thing.

The first dish was a plate of goose with braised toufu. $24. My lunch company love the goose but i felt it was too 'gamey' the ducky taste was a little too strong.

 
The second dish prawn balls. - $12.

 
Char Kway Teow if i didnt remember wrong was $14! Lovely!

 
Mixed braised vegetables with scallops, fatt choy. Pretty good too! I think this was $28

 
Finally the oyster omelette. Which i must say was wonderfully executed. Good balance of oyster, eggs and the gooey stuff. Cant remember the price of this dish.

 
Total damage was $105. Had a $50 voucher though which was wonderful =D

Delicious! Smile Aug 21, 2012

Very delicious bowl of milky fish slice bee hoon! I love the texture of the noodles. It is not the usually thick ones that you find in most fish head bee hoon stall, it is slightly thinner, not too soft, cooked al-dente. I prefer this thinner version as it is not as slipperly, easier to consume! The flish slices are pretty thick and plentiful for a $4 bowl. The best part of this wonderful bowl is the mouth-watering soup. Thick, milky and very tasty with bits of fried shallots and ti poh - fried sole fish. Craving for it again!

The buffet spread was pretty good, they have the typical japanese food spread, many varieties of salmon as you can see from the photos. Many different variations of salmon sashimi. Unfortunately my buffet strategy was left in disarray when i polish up this plate of salmon. I felt a little sick after the many slices of salmon. Moral of the story, eat salmon in moderation, no matter how much you love the little red fish. Besides raw salmon, they had grilled salmon head, salmon porridge, salmon miso soup. Omega 3 overload it what you get here. For dinner we paid about $35 in total excluding drinks. If you are into desserts, the dessert spread was however very disappointing.
