Hmm.. A Homely Feel..

I have finally visited this restaurant, after hearing so much about it from my fellow colleagues. Well, it was more of a chanced-upon visit, as we could not make up our minds on where to eat.

Finally settling in, we zoomed straight for the menu and got ourselves the following & gave all the soup dishes a miss as well. Food names may be different due to forgetfulness.. =P

1. Home-made Tofu, which was seriously soft and was nicely done up with black soya sauce (if I was not mistaken) and finished off with spring onions. Simple but tasty!!

2. Ginger Chicken, which was served with fresh green cabbages and sliced cucumbers. One has to first wrap the chicken and the cucumber slices in the cabbage, before stuffing the food into one's mouth. It just totally reminded me of the Roasted Duck in Beijing, whereby the exact same procedures were done. Similarly, simple yet tasty!!

3. Ah-Gong Spinach Leaves, which tasted a little like Sambal Kang Kong. If one ain't a chilli-lover, there's the option of the Ah-Ma Spinach Leaves, which does not have the chilli element in it.

4. Some Tofu-Prawn Dish, which is slightly spicy, but it reminded me of Hot Plate Beancurd, except there was no egg but replaced by prawns in this case. Nice succulent prawns, covered in a thick tasty gravy. Worth a try and not too expensive as well!! =)

5. Penang Fried Mee Sua, which was simple and tasty, coupled with a lot of ingredients thrown together, from bean sprouts to egg bits.

The service crew was made up mainly of middle-age people, which gave a pretty homely feeling. The restaurant had little round stools as seats and tables with simple wood carvings on them, giving one the impression of being under some resting shade in Chinese Garden, but it actually reminded me more of the restaurants in China etc.

A little noisy due to the huge dinner crowd but otherwise, if one was to speak slightly louder, his companions would still be able to hear him.

Worth a visit and a true reminder to simple home-cooked food, especially if one decided not to cook at home for a particular day!
