Summary: The Porridges are good, the dishes are
WHERE THE HELL IS MY LOR BAK, FRIED DACE WITH BLACK
BEANS AND OLIVE VEGETABLE?!! Disappointing really. I am sure Olive
Vegetable isn't tt expensive.
Dishes and Review:
3 types of porridge:
- Peanut Porridge - I like this one. It is not too salty, creamy,
and if you add in the century egg and fried cracker stuff... it's
the best dish in the entire buffet. Which... speaks a lot about the
buffet.
- Sweet potato Porridge - Sweet. The pieces of sweet potato cooked
just right, nice sized cubes, good texture.
- Plain Porridge - Very nice texture. I like. Can consume
gallons.
Dry Stuff:
Fried Fish - Only can see, didnt manage to get any. Uncle in front
of me took the last fish then chef keep liao. It looked nice
though.
Fried Egg - Mediocre. Mediocre. Mediocre.
Salted Egg - How bad can salted egg get? You can't boil it wrong i
guess.
Century Egg - .... as above.
Soya Chicken - I liked it. I think it has a nice texture, and
taste.
Lup Cheong - Not a good grade. Rubbery.
Lots of other stuff make up the '60 dishes' like.. ikan bilis and
all. I didn't bother with them.
Gravy Stuff:
Broccoli - how do you spell this word. I like this veg so its
nice.
Vege in Oyster Sauce - Fresh Veg, not too old. Nicely done.
Mapo Tofu - Too salty without the PUNCH. Do you know the origins of
Mapo Tofu? If not, join the Asian Civilisations Museum tour and
treasure hunt thing that I am organising!!!
Chicken Wing with Black Fungus - Best Dish. Yummy.
Braised Stuff:
Tau pok - Hmm Nice. I like... braised Tau Pok but NO GARLIC?!
Pork Skin - Hmm. nice too.
Trotters - Tough like you can kill someone with one of these
Hainanese Mutton Stew - I'm hainanese and i can't give me sign of
approval to this stew I am sorry. The Mutton tastes like it lived
to a VERY VERY VERY ripe old age.
Egg - WHY is the egg alone? Somehow braising all those things
separately as DIFFERENT dishes is kind of cheating my feeling
leh.
Chicken - nice.
Peanuts - Tough. Not melt in ur mouth.
Dessert:
- Pulot Hitam - Not bad. Ok lah.
- Green BEan - Have tasted better.
- Cheng Tng - didnt bother. hubby cooks great cheng tng leh and
eating it feels like infidelity. But Auntie says its WAY too
sweet.
