This unassuming stall offers a range of zi char dishes, alongside a traditional fish soup. You have a choice of adding XO (extra old) brandy or not, the default is without alcohol.
.
If you opt for the non-alcoholic version, the broth remains decently rich, with primary notes of the white pepper, black pepper, ginger, and evaporated milk, being milky sweet savoury peppery spice in taste.
.
The long silky smooth rice vermicelli noodles carry mild grainy sweet notes, while the crunchy chye sim / chinese flowering cabbage lends vegetal sweet flavour.
.
The medium fillets of boneless toman / snakehead fish are chunky and soft, with meaty sweet salty savoury flavour. I like to add chopped red chili for a spicy kick.

Warm bowl of noodles on a rainy rainy afternoon 👌🏼💯 Service isn’t great and a little slow though.
I’m not usually a fan of milk fish soups, but I wanted to drink up all of this fish soup! I’m not sure why it’s so good – is it the XO? Or the slices of ginger? Do they boil the fish bones in it for a long time? It’s so tasty!
The other highlight is the fish. The fish here are not fish slices. They’re thick hefty meaty chunks of fish, and there’s lots of them, making it a very value-for-money bowl.
The sauce is tasty but lacks a bit of wok hey. There’s pieces of meat, fish slices and prawn!
My go to place for XO fish head beehoon! I like it that the soup is milky, slightly creamy and contains a tinge of sweetness from the XO. Flavorful yet light on the palate.
The wok hei taste was there, the fish slices was fresh.
Overall quite satisfying
