揾到手

this is along the geylang stretch and sy and i decide to give it a try there's quite many ppl eating here =) it sells dim sum and also local delights such as chili crab curry crab hor fun and stuff at economical prices

first up is the minced pork congee...its a pretty small bowl for $2 each...its probably as much as the size of the rice bowl u used @ home...tt's nth much fatastic abt the minced pork..but the congee is really smooth =) it doesn't has a grainy texture which i really dislike a lot for congee and its not watery @ all! i believe they juz hav a big pot of plain congee ready and make it into watever type u order...like 皮蛋粥, 田鸡粥 and stuff ba...but i really like the congee for wat it is! a pity they dun sell you zha kueh (油条) here...

the cheong fun here is really special!!! as u can tell from the photo...they dun use the traditional dark watery 酱清...but they use the sauce the cooks used to cook tze char hor fun and mui fan! but the sauce is more starchy! it may look funny but it really complements the cheong fun sia...we ordered the prawn cheong fun and the prawns are springy and crunchy =) one whole prawn in each cheong fun! the cheong fun itself is also very soft and thin...it juz feels like eating seafood hor fun..but the hor fun is rolled up wif the prawn within...in my opinion...this is a muz try! =)
siew mai here doesn't really look appetizing..the comforting point abt the siew mai is it contains a considerable amt of prawns and minced meat =) the prawn is likewise springy..much to my delight =)
the har gau here is a disappointment...while the prawn maintained its standard springy-ness...the skin of the har gau stick to the paper and comes off too easily...not good...

the pai kuat here uses a lot of garlic for garnish..insteand of the traditional chilli and dou shi...so it lacks the salty/spicy feel and is filled wif the fragrance of garlic...i love garlic so its fine wif me but those who are "vampires" may wan to steer clear or remove away the garlic? average in my opinion...

there's nth special abt the drink...but its my first time seeing ppl serving drinks in a bowl haha...so i juz decide to put up this pic!

in whole...i give it 3.75/5! i still think its a nice place of supper in geylang instead of always going for tau huay and you zha kueh (油条) =) i will definitely go back for more supper there cos there's still lots tt i wanna try! =D
