It's thick and topped w osmanthus syrup.
But the portion is tiny. There's nothing too premium about it to justify the price
Ridiculously priced, avoid. The food here is roughly double the fair price, idk why they still managed to open a second branch. Are people so starved for fancy teochew?
Good news is that this is definitely more than 100g. But it ends there
Greasy, chewy, not crispy. Very jelat and rlly not good at all, not to mention the price. Waiting time was a ridiculous 20-25min during lunch when there's only 3 other tables, plus they said they just need 5mins. Scammers
The only part that tastes good is the sharp fruity sour sambal
Avoid like a plague
Everything was meh except the pork skin which was wonderfully sticky. They lack penetration of the braising liquid and are not very tender. The tofu especially, didn't absorb the braising liquid at all and was super bland. Chili was good
The Crispy Dough Fritters stuffed with cuttlefish paste is a classic not to be missed. Deep-fried into a nice golden hue, the fritters were airy, crunchy with a moist and savoury paste within. Not too oily too.
SHAO's "hor fun" brings a taste of traditional teochew flavour to the table. The rice noodles were well coated with the XO sauce and stir-fried to a smooth al dente texture. It was slightly sweet and full of smoky fragrant with crunchy bits of salty chye poh to tease our tastebuds. Personally it could do with more chye poh.
The dish may not look pretty but they are the most unique and umami-packed sausages I've ever tasted. Each piece was chewy, springy with a slight crunch and you can taste the morsels of squid in it. Perfectly seasoned, it had the right amount of savoriness and sweetness that made it simply irresistible.
