I seldom sample Teochew food so this was a treat for me. It was 1:00 am and the place was pretty packed. Super loud and for some reason I really enjoyed the environment. Service was fast, servers friendly/attentive, and the food was delicious. $6.50 for a plate, not big and definitely not small. A great place to snack during a late night. We had 5 dishes
1. Pig ear - 3/5 - definitely not my thing but appreciate the chewiness
2. Fried turnip cake - 5/5 - my absolute fave! I eat this a lot when I go dim sum-ing but this was a bit different. A friend told me they deep fry the turnip cake.
3. Leek dumplings - 4/5 - very delicious but not sure this is the best value for your buck.
4. Peanuts with marinated pork - 3/5 - this has potential but the meat was SO freakin' salty. I felt more and more thirsty after each bite. Owner mentioned this needs to be served with congee. Pass.
5. Fake turnip cake with egg - 4/5 - I initially thought this was turnip cake until a friend mentioned this is NOT turnip cake but some type of flour. Hmmm. Like the egg combo though.
