178 Tiong Bahru Lor Mee

Was here for lunch and heard that the Lor Mee was good so I give a tried. I ordered the $3 Lor Mee for the extra Shark Nuggets. I heard chicken and fish nugget but is my first time hearing Shark Nuggets? Lolz... Luckily I am a little early for my lunch and there isn't much crowd yet but the auntie preparing is kinda of slow lolz...

The gravy is thick and tasty and you can add the sauce as much as you like so I added lots of garlic, chilli and vinegar in it :P  As the portion I find it just nice for me, the shark nugget was slightly crispy and soft but I can't differentiate the taste of the shark meat vs the normal fish meat... opps :P There is some crunchy bits in the sauce I don't know what is that called but it was nice when goes with the noodle and the sauce. I will be back for their Lor Mee again :)

Chen Ji Steamed Fish Head

Getting too lazy to update my blog already.....

Had this steamed fish head with hot sauce at Chen Ji when I was in Chinatown that day. Had wanted to eat the claypot rice but after hearing that we need to wait for more than an hour for the rice we change our mind and tried the steamed fish head.

This steamed fish head seem quite popular they even had the advertisement saying that it was recommended by mediacorp but I cant seem to find any review on the net. Anyway the fish head portion was huge, it was very fresh, no fishy smell. It was so smooth and tender as for the sauce it taste a little spicy, a little sweet and a little saltish because of the salted bean. I think the portion is right for 3-4 person it was too much for the 2 of us and we also ordered their Prawn Paste Chicken Wings, my favourite. The prawn paste taste was strong and fragrant, the chicken wing cooked just right! It was so juicy and tender, I love to have chicken wings because my deary will always debone it for me :P

Overall the bill for the fish head and chicken wings with 2 rice cost about $28, as given that portion I would say it was worth it.
