I was around the vicinity with my friend when we happened to walk past Steam Sia restaurant and stopped for awhile to take a look. The first thing that caught our attention was the old and antique display items found at the front of the restaurant. What intrigued us further was when we entered to take a peek, we were pleasantly surprised to find that the restaurant was nicely decorated with various antique items that certainly belonged to our parents era. Here's a photo of some of the antique de

Here's how it looks like:
The chicken wing, sitting innocuously at a corner of my plate, seem so "normal". But I was deeply wrong when I sank my teeth and took my first bite at my chicken wing. I am unsure how to describe the taste as it is an intricate mixture of some herb taste with some saltiness with some other taste that I could not recognized at that moment. But all in all, I certainly liked how the chicken wing was cooked.
For the achar, it tasted normal. Besides, I am not a strong fan of achar. The 2 sambal prawns tasted normal too, nothing special about it.
As for the ambiance of the restaurant, other than the nicely decorated vintage items, it could have been better if the restaurant can play some vintage music, to add to the mood.
Would I visit this restaurant to eat for a second time? Maybe yes, maybe no. For yes, it would be because the item we ordered tasted great, so we assumed the rest of the food available in their menu should taste equally as great too. As for no, it would be attributed to their small serving portion. Both my friend and I still felt hungry after we finished our meal but we decided not to order another dish, fearing that the portion size will be small again. Instead, we opted to fill our stomach at another eatery nearby.
For the prices that they charged for normal food like curry chicken, Assam fish, fish and chips, salmon etc, if they increase the serving portion size by a little bit, I will certainly return on another day to try out their other dishes found in the menu. But given the small portion served, this will be a likely factor we will consider if we are looking to have a filling meal. But if we are looking to have a yummy meal that tasted great, this would definitely be one of the places that I will recommend to my friends, if their goal is to enjoy tasting great yummy food.
