The famous fish and chicks made famous by blogger Seth Lui .After the blog article was published, there is a massive queue (everytime I want to eat) and the signature fish and chips are usually sold out for lunch and dinner.
Finally, I head down
on a weekday night and the queue is finally not so horribly long (still waited an hour before food is served). I ordered
their best of both worlds $12.90 which has the signature salted egg sauce and
chilli crab sauce drizzled on the fried fish.
I quite like the fish
as it taste fresh and is well fried and with the meat retaining its moisture
after deep frying. But halfway through the dish, I started to feel
overindulgent and greasy (age must be catching up) and I am tempted to abandon
the entire dish.
The sauce though
delicious are only drizzled sparingly. I will have very much preferred the
sauce to be served on a dish and I can dip as much as I want to and the fried
fish won’t turn soggy in between mouthfuls. Between the 2 sauces, salted egg
with fried fish is a better combination then the chilli crab sauce which I felt
that something missing and doesn’t really work with the fish. Rated: 6.5/10
More care should be considered
when ordering the sides, as I end up with almost everything fried. :(
On 2nd visit, I
decided to try their Hawaiian grilled chicken cutlet ($7.90). It was very very dry
and really quite unappealing. Even the cheese on top doesn’t save the day. I
guess I had my fair share of fish and chicks and you won’t see me visiting this
place anytime too soon. Perhaps on the day the crowd wanes down and I may just
reconsider. Rated: 4.5/10
