| - I went here hoping to get some of the dishes I miss so much since Yen Ching in Bayview Village closed down, so this review might not be unbiased...
Based on a lot of reviews here we tried the Crispy Beef and Crispy Chicken and were entirely disappointed. Really oily, and chewy, not tender and the sauce was salty, dark and strong.
Chili chicken... I think everyone has their favourite place. Ours is Yueh Tung, downtown, so the version here just seemed, again, oily and not that tasty.
Shredded pork in garlic sauce had a spice that I couldn't place but didn't like... a lot of dishes seemed to have traces of this spice and it made all the food taste the same.
Singapore noodles were bland and tasteless.
It was a Sunday night and the place was packed, but I couldn't help but notice it was packed with non-Chinese/Gwai-lo... so if you like Chinese food that appeals to non-Chinese then this the place for you.
If you tend to like places that are filled with Chinese diners who know what's good, you will be greatly disappointed. I'm not Chinese, but I prefer authentic stuff.
