Enjoyed the Signature Don $14.90 which consists of egg, prawn, corn, & mushroom tempura. It was just the right texture and savoury. Also like the WhiteFish Tendon $10.90 which was crispy and tender. Both the California Maki & Udon Set $12.90 and Kariage Chicken Udon set $12.90 was however average and a tad salty. All set comes with Chawamushi.
Unlike Singapore's usual typical prawn noodle, this (limited time) new Dry Prawn Mee $7.90 is quite different and tasty. The soup which added dried shrimp also enhance the flavour of the prawn noodle. Interesting item though.
Craving for HK's Cha Chaan Teng on a Thursday Brunch, we headed for Tsui Wah. Loved the Crispy Bun with Condensed Milk ($4), with the right ratio of butter and lashings of condensed milk. P/S : Consume while it's hot. Also enjoyed the deep fried wanton served with sweet & sour sauce ($9.50), which is a good match. The king prawns in XO sauce with tossed noodles ($11) was a tad too bland if not fully immersed in the XO sauce. The French toast bites with vanilla ice-cream ($9.50) satisfied our sweet tooth for the day.
The refurbished outlet now offers 1 Protein, 1 Carb + 2 sides + 1 sauce. For children who can't take the spicy Aglio Olio previously can now choose Carbonara ($8.50), or rice (steamed white/brown). Glad they change to allow mix & match now. We preferred the charred and tender Signature Chicken Chop ($9) as compared to the slightly bland Carbonara with mushroom and bacon. The Atlantic Haddock Fillet ($10) also goes well with the Italian Herb sauce too.
The karaage was not crispy and was soggy possibly due to it being immersed in the broth of the Tori Karaage Don ($8.90). The chicken in the Unagi & Tori Tamago Don ($10.90) had a smell and the unagi had many bones making it unsuitable for kids to eat. The Hokkaido Butter Corn Chasyu Ramen ($12.90) tasted average and the chasyu was bland and tough. Could have been better.
We enjoyed the tender delicious marmite pork ribs (medium - $10) the best as even elderly with dentures could pull it off easily... Lol. Expected more from the lobster porridge though (2 lobsters for $58.50). The Steamed Grouper in Hong Kong style was delicate and the sauce was not too salty, just right to bring out the freshness of the fish. Salted egg prawn ball (medium - $30) however was a let down. Egg spinach (small - $10) was palatable. Give the healthier lemongrass drink ($2.20 but not in pic as it was gobble up too fast) a try too. Overall was a very enjoyable dinner.
If you like charred like hor fun then you must try Chef Lam's Seafood Hor Fun ($6). The hor fun is smooched with gravy and eggs filled with aromatic fragrance. Their crispy fish skin ($8) is also equally addictive. Worth the wait.
We ordered Mushroom Aglio Olio, Seafood Aglio Olio & Carbonara ($8.90, $10.90 & $10.90 respectively) but it was Charms' Chicken Wings ($6.90), Chicken Chop ($12.90) and Ribeye Steak ($21.90) that dazzled us. The Lychee Rose Cake ($7.90) was also a lovely surprise. Pay by Fave & get an instant 10% Fave rebate. On top of that, friendly owner gave a complimentary Ice-cream for any main course ordered. The Yuzu Gelato is uplifting. Mains + Drinks + Dessert = about $16/pax
Surprised that there is no queue at Lao Wang @ Oasis Terrace, we decided to give it a try on a Saturday lunch time. The place was packed but we waited for only about 5 mins when a family finished their meal and vacated the table. The Herbal Frog Leg Soup (2 frogs - $16) is flavourful as the herbs are not too strong while Sambal Seafood Claypot ($8.50) is savoury. We also ordered the non-spicy Kangkong ($5) and Ngoh Hiang (2 pieces - $5) for kids but they were quite average though. For a kick, dip the Kang Kong into the Sambal Seafood Claypot chilli and it goes well especially with rice. Overall it's value for money @ $37.50, no GST or Service Charge. Will visit again to try out other dishes next round.
It was our first time trying Took Lae Dee and it turned out quite well. Even our most picky lil' ones gave the Pad Pak Boong (Non-Spicy Kang Kong $5) a thumbs up ; The Tom Yum Soup with seafood ($8) is pleasant though spicer than normal ; both the Kao Pad Chicken and Kao Pad Pork (Fried Rice each $6) are quite flavorful & savoury. Our only disappointment is the pathetic Thai Fried Chicken Wings (6 for $5) which were each like half a joint only. We also ordered the Took Lae Dee $2.80 (Thai Milk Tea) which taste average; but the lime tea ($2.50) is however refreshing. Will probably try out the Thai Basil Pork Rice ($3.80), if around the vicinity next time.
Love the signature oyster egg omelette ($16). Crispy thin egg and fresh oyster, even to the delight of my parents who are not a fan of oyster egg omelette. Another delectable dish is the Lettuce wrap crab meat with egg. The Garoupa with fermented black bean sauce & capsicum is also a good choice. Nice place for family celebration!
The mackeral fish is simmered with miso and toppled with green beans and brinjal. Fish is tender and the taste of miso is not too salty but flavourful. However, beware the bones while feeding children. Popular with children including the picky eaters. We give it a thumbs up!
