Solid satisfying dinner with nice and cosy setting. Porridge was comforting and food was tasty. Had the salted egg pork ribs, which was tender and flavourful! Claypot brinjal, with that wokhei infused into the dish, crispy Teochew prawn rolls, fluffy minced pork omelette, but the star dish was the Deep Fried Pomfret with Black Bean Sauce- well fried, and fins so crispy like crackers. Not too salty as well. We will be back!

Goes well with a side of porridge!

Went for a lovely dinner date here, ordered the qing long cai, cereal prawn and hotplate tofu, love the powerful flavour of the food there and not to mention everything is well seasoned, will definitely go back!

went there for a chill dinner date and the vibes were nice as there weren’t much customers, we ordered the cereal prawn which were really crispy, the hotplate tofu as the sauce was interesting in a good way and lastly the qing long cai which had flavourful on its own! for drinks we had their homemade barley and was surprisingly good!

[CHINATOWN, SINGAPORE] Many people don't seem to know that Chinatown Complex Hawker Centre is actually quite known for their steamed fish head dishes, with at least 5 stalls selling the same thing. Seng Kee 119 is known to be the original steamed fish head stall and I've had it 5 years ago and standards seem to be the same!

The Steamed Fish Head ($20) was traditionally doused in a thick fermented bean sauce that can be quite salty on its own. The fish itself was very fresh, as its meat was flaky yet bouncy, with a natural sweetness. This is still good to share among 3-4! The pork lard was fresh as well, adding extra umami to the dish.

However, now thinking about it a few hours later, the flavour may be heavy on the fermented bean, but it seems rather... one dimensional. Perhaps other stalls that have innovated may be able to provide a new flavour combination that can entice me to go back 😂 wonder if anyone has tried this dish from other stalls that is worth a try?

This was my first time visiting this porridge place. Their signatures which include sliced ginger and spring onion beef in claypot, hotplate tofu and chai poh egg are must-order dishes which goes very well with rice or sweet potato porridge. The porridge is prepared in taiwanese style with a thicker consistency and the rice grains retains a soft yet chewy bite.

A traditional porcelain bowl full of delicate and smooth soya goodness at a very affordable price. Having this in a hawker centre gives a comforting and homely feel. The sugar syrup is also just nice and not too sweet 》$1

Handmade noodles with QQ texture accompanied by well-marinated and flavourful minced pork then topped with crispy anchovies. Please don't let the plain-looking noodles fool you. The sauce and chilli actually pack a punch. I also added 2 truffle meatballs which turned out soft and flavourful with hints of truffle flavour 》$5.50 + $1.80 Truffle Meatballs
