Today is a rainy day & we need piping hot soup to warm us up...
So we came here for dinner...before going for our weekly grocery shopping in that mega, air-conditioned supermarket.
There was no queue & we got seated rather quickly. The pictures & decors on the walls & shelves above were very nostalgic.
Tables & seats were decently spaced apart. The Menu had been upgraded but so is the prices...
The Soups used to be $4.50 onwards just a few months ago...now they're at least $6 onwards...
The soup bowl used to be almost double the rice bowl...now they're the same size...
We didn't want a fat-laden meal so we didn't order the Pork Ribs Soup.
Then again, all varieties of meat were drowned in the same pot of hot peppery stock... Pig's Stomach Soup 猪肚汤 ($6)
- the pieces of stomach were huge & long
- not as tender & soft as it used to be
- it took me a long time to chew Pork Tenderloin Soup 腰肉片汤 ($6.50)
- big pieces of meat
- tender but still QQ Kai Lan 芥兰 ($3.50)
- a just portion for that price
- but older Kai Lan was used
- the thick stems & leaves needed careful chewing
- oyster sauce is bland
- fried shallots are crispy Braised Beancurd Skin 焖腐竹 ($3.50)
- huge pieces were served
- the Beancurd Skin were probably braised whole but they'd forgotten to cut into smaller pieces before serving
- tasted just nice, not too salty
- it's not soft but rather Q enough as a good bite
Rice 白饭 (80cents)
- soft but not fragrance enough to attract a second order Did u know...
This is the gesture to inform the service staff to top up our soup.
We liked the fact that there's no service charge.
We liked they kept their wet tissues priced at 20cents each.
We liked the efficient elderly service staff...they're friendly & warm.
We liked the hot peppery soup, especially on a rainy day...
In fact, we liked it so much that we'd asked to top up our soup 3 times!
Shiokalicious!
Verdict: Tips:
Ignore the rest, just order the Pork Ribs Soup 排骨肉骨茶 ($7)...only the Pork Ribs Soup!
No, not even the Premium Loin Ribs Soup 特级龙骨肉骨茶 ($9.50) - not worth it...
