The vegetables and kuay teow had an excellent wok hey, really fragrant and flavorful. The kuay teow is best enjoyed piping hot. The pumpkin soup, however, was a little on the bland side, and I was hoping the pork trotter portion could have been a bit more generous. That said, it was still an enjoyable dinner overall. To top it off, the orh nee was ... see more

Having previously enjoyed their food at the Frankel Avenue branch, I was excited to visit this location. Compared to the Frankel branch, the ambience here is notably cozy and relaxing.

It’s my first time eating raw crab, surprisingly not fishy at all but I feel a bit salty and if you do not like garlic , this might not a great dish for you. The seafood porridge is super yummy! The texture of the rice is soft and crispy. it is full of seafood. And taste really goo... see more
