1st course : Cold Dish Combination
There was 5 dishes in this dish : crispy fish skin, salad prawn, fried egg, black fungus, deep fried prawn roll.
Most people were not taken with the black fungus especially with the older generation. Although the black fungus was crunchy, it was lacking of flavours.
The crispy fish skin was everyone's favourite as it was light and crispy.
The prawn roll looked like crispy yam roll, filled with crunchy prawn filling.

2nd course : Double Boiled Black Chicken Soup
The soup was a way too salty for most people. The meat of the black chicken was quite tender.

8th course : Braised Pork Belly Pau
The braised pork belly was quite oily, and could do with a longer braising time as the fat still did not have the melt in the mouth texture yet. It was served with pipping hot bun.

9th course : Mango Pudding
Wish there were mango cubes in it. Lacking of mango flavour.
Service was uneven. My dining partner who was having vegetarian, got left out of one course. One staff remembered but served her with a vegetable dish with dried scallop in it. The following course she was served 2 courses together.

Venison Broth with Egg White

I decided to try the Venison Broth with Egg White (SGD$5.00). The venison cubes were not too tender, but retained the sweet natural flavor of venison meat. The silken soft tofu cubes were a good contrast, and the egg white soup was clear enough to complement the flavor of its ingredients.
Cod fish in Beer

The Cod Fish in Beer (SGD$12.00) that I had been looking forward to was a little disappointing. The cod, while buttery smooth and luscious in its natural form, was definitely not enhanced by the overly sweet flavor of the beer sauce it was infused in. The gooey and far-too-sweet sauce somewhat reduced the flavor of the cod by a huge tad; might've been lovelier if it had been a bitterer beer for this dish.
Crispy Duck with Yam Paste

We also had the Crispy Duck with Yam Paste (SGD$24.00) - a bit of a carbo overload, but nonetheless a delicious indulgence. The fried yam was very crispy on the outside, and we loved the coarsely sweet flavor of yam. The duck meat was ensconced within the crispy fried yam slices, turning the dish into a savoury-sweet combination of multi-textures.

I had Tanjong Panjar Chinese New Year Lou Hei Dinner.

The restaurant which served my table was Yan Palace Restaurant. Of course, Yu Sheng was served as the starter. The necessary ingredients such as the red ginger , winter melon, sweetened plum, fried sesame, fine peanut, pok chui biscuit, cinnamon and pepper, carrot and radish and yu sheng sauce were added. The final ingredient was the abalone was added. The abalone was cut to thick slices of 10. It was really food ration. I suppose the abalone must be the canned form.

At last the Yu Sheng was tossed and the taste was alright. The abalone was not tough and neither was it too soft. The carrot and radish were not shredded to finest. For any public dining area, I would not expect to the superior dinning so long that the dish was presentable, it would be alright.

When it comes to having Dim Sum in Chinatown, I always frequent the following:

And now, I found the 4th - Yan Palace Restaurant!!


One weekday afternoon, I felt adventurous and wanted to explore a new eating place. I recalled walking past a Chinese restaurant at Hong Lim Complex, so I went ahead with my instincts and located this place (I lied, I did it with the help of a colleague...haha!
).

At its entrance, Yan Palace Restaurant gave the impression that it serves "nothing below expensive". But the price turned out to be decent - $18+ per pax!
And it's not entirely unheard of, as there were quite a few tables occupied with large groups of people. Even my colleague knew of the place
, and boosted my morale when he said that the food was good, before we made our order!
The decor within was quaint. It looked like those kind of Chinese restaurants where KTV is available, and typical for Chinese wedding banquets.

We ordered the following dishes:

The restaurant took the initiative to ask if we would want it to be served individually (not all restaurants retain such good customer service)

Average. I am not a fan of the glutinous coating. The shape of the ball was somewhat dome-shaped and looked cute. What made it better was that the balls were cut into halves. So, a table of 4 pax would be able to distribute a serving of 3 glutinous balls for everyone to have a taste of this dish. This went the same for some other dim sum dishes.

This was a special dish, where the prawn and banana were consistently separated in the roll. The ones I've eaten thus far had both ingredients all mixed together.

Sour. A good end to the heavy lunch though! Great for digestion!

The chilli sauce provided had beans in it! If only they could make the chilli skin less visible (fine grinding etc.) and include more beans in it!!!

My 3 other colleagues also ordered a dessert each and the bill amounted to this:

Total Cost: $18+ per pax (for 4 pax)

Will I visit again? U bet!

I also loved our choice of carbo - the beehoon. The beehoon is fried with beansprouts, mushrooms, small shrimp prawns, carrots etc. Although the ingredients are quite simple, but the chef cooked it very well and it was a hit with all of us.
