I had food served by Hock Hoe Heng Restaurant. The meal was served in an open pavilion and the restaurant had its moveable van drove to the dinning area. It was rather interesting. When the meal was really to serve, I thought it would be a course concept but rather wrong. It was like dinning in a house based setting. I had carrot and pork rib soup. When the soup was placed on the table, the strong aroma of carrot was excellent. There was no stain of oil. The soup was clear. I was given
When the meal was really to serve, I thought it would be a course concept but rather wrong. It was like dinning in a house based setting. I had carrot and pork rib soup. When the soup was placed on the table, the strong aroma of carrot was excellent. There was no stain of oil. The soup was clear. I was given the option to have rice or porridge but I chose porridge to go with my meal. Woh! I had not eaten such teochew porridge for a long time. The grain was boiled to finest and the porridge water was sweet and not starchy.
The next dish was the fried bean curd. The bean curd was plain but yet it had done it well. Next I had fried dory fish. It did not like the dory fish as it was heavily covered with flour to dry. One unusual dish was the steamed minced pork. The restaurant used metallic plate to steam. This steamed pork has nothing to go with, just meat only. If only carrot had added to steam, then with the good colour combination, I would think that the minced pork meat would add a better taste.
Teochew like hong bak. The hong bak was good. It was not fatty. The fried cabbage with black fungus was the best grap. Everyone made a dip to the vegetable dish.
Though the meal was light yet I did not feel hungry. Most important, I did not feel thirsty.
I enjoyed the meal.
