Delicious and not expensive with only $4 each bowl

Tasty seasoning. Price is abit expensive for each meat, so it will be more worth it if you order Seasoned meat instead of cheese tofu or vegetables. Had a great time eating!

Here offers a flavorful plate of curry rice, but the lunchtime atmosphere can feel stuffy on hot days.

I like to call Pork Belly with Red Beancurd (南乳炸肉), the porky equivalent of har cheong gai

To create this dish, red fermented beancurd (紅腐乳) is used to marinade the pork belly, enhancing its flavours, tenderising the meat and adding additional moisture. It also serves to 'cure' the pork belly of its 'gamey' aftertaste. Red fermented beancurd which incorporates red yeast rice also gives this dish a distinctive deep red tinge, flavor punch and aroma.

Wok Master's rendition of this dish was a little on the dry and tough side but still savoury!

Established in 1963, this brand serves up an unconventional cloudy broth that sits in the middle of the spectrum, with savoury salty peppery spice garlicky herbal earthy sweet flavour.
.
The pork ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender and soft, with meaty savoury sweet flavour. The crunchy preserved mustard greens / meigan cai / mei cai carry vegetal sour salty earthy spice flavour, pairing well with the fluffy soft steamed white rice with grainy sweet flavour.
.
While they could be more generous with the crisp fried dough fritters / you tiao, I liked the soft soy braised hard-boiled egg with eggy sweet flavour, and the spongy soft soy braised tau pok / dried tofu puff with grainy salty sweet herbal flavour.
.
A star here is their soy braised pork trotter, equal parts lean and fatty, coming easily off the bone. With chewy gelatinous wobbly texture and bold meaty salty herbal sweet savoury fatty flavour, this was incredibly satisfying.

Spicy and fragrant chicken pot with thick and savoury broth, filled with endless chunks of chicken tender to the bite. The broth tastes quite similar to the mala hotpot sans the numbing effect. Additional side dishes are available (chargeable) for add-ons.

Homemade tofu is a dish you can find in some but not most tzichar eateries because it is time-consuming and labour intensive to produce them and they are often produced in limited quantities to ensure that they are fresh.

I don't usually mind the slight premium charged (as with all things homemade/handmade) because fresh tofu has a soft silky texture and yet holds its jiggly shape well. It also has a cleaner taste.

Wok Master serves theirs deep fried and topped with mayonnaise and chicken floss, beautifully arranged like petals around a flower. The crust layer is crisp and the tofu interior soft. The combination of mayonnaise and floss cannot go wrong.

I did however feel that the homemade tofu could have been used in a much better way. I mean this is a dish that anyone could easier replicate at home with store bought ingredients without much difficulty and it would taste rather similar... It would have been better off letting the homemade tofu shine by braising it or with a simple sauce.

Mixed Claypot Rice($15)
Be prepared to queue, and waiting up to an hour is not uncommon if you walk in, so it's advisable to contact them in advance to minimise your waiting time. They offer various portion sizes ranging from $8 to $20 for their Claypot Rice, and we opted for the $15 portion, suitable for 2 pax.

The Claypot Rice is a delightful mix of chunky chicken, lap cheong, salted fish, and greens. Each pot is meticulously cooked over charcoal fire to achieve the best aroma. When served, the claypot is scorching hot, so caution is advised. Quickly pour the dark soy sauce and sesame oil mixture over the rice, mix thoroughly to ensure each grain and ingredient is coated with flavour. The rice is crunchy, carrying hints of dark soy, smokiness, and the fragrance of lap cheong. The chicken is tender, but watch out for bones. The charred bits on the base and sides of the claypot add a sinful touch, though they may not be the healthiest. Overall, the taste is mildly flavoured, and adding more of the dark soy mixture could enhance the experience. However, the rice tends to be dry due to the intense heat from the claypot.

To complement the Claypot Rice, we paired it with the Watercress Pork Rib Soup($2.50). Surprisingly, the soup stands out with its natural watercress flavour. The pork ribs are soft and tender, and the soup provides a refreshing contrast to the hearty claypot rice. Plus, the price is unbeatable.

Seng Kee is popular for their Mee sua Soup. Had always been going to their Kembangan Main branch, and I would gladly confirm that it is just as good here at Kaki Bukit.

Herbalicious and flavourful Soup.

Meats were tender & fresh.

Added some chilli padi, and the soup was damn shiok.
