Must try: Fried Squid with Spicy Salt
I don't know why but for some reason I thought this place was supposed to be sketchy and served unauthentic congee (maybe because it was tucked away in the corner of a plaza with other mish mosh stores totally overshadowed by Food Basics?)... but that turned out to be such a misconception I enjoyed my meal even more than I would ever hoped for.
Spoiled by the Congee Queens, I expect to have a mediocre lunch and move on with my day. But all the dishes we ordered were delicious. (1) Seafood Super Bowl congee: well flavoured well cooked with a generous amount of seafood. I liked how soft the squid was which turned out to be a theme as you can see. (2) Fried Rice Noodle with Sliced Beef in Soya sauce: the beef was tender, the noodles well seasoned. It's quite oily but it's almost like a requirement for good fried rice noodle. (3) Fried Squid with Spicy Salt: tender, salty, garlicky goodness. Must order! (4) Fried Turnip Cake: quite like the one at Congee Queen, except maybe a little spicier (read: good). (5) Crispy Chicken with Shrimp Crackers: very soft meat with crispy skin, kids will love the crackers and adults with a childhood will too. (6) Fried Sticky Rice with Preserved Meat: only dish we did not enjoy, as it was too hard and bland.
Overall, a great meal at a very affordable price. Would come again!!
