Zi Char

This place is famous for their Zi Char dishes, and we went for their signature dishes:

Hotplate Beancurd ($10)
Salted Egg Pork Ribs Rice ($6)
101 Mee Tai Bak Soup ($5)

We were somewhat let down by the dishes, which we found to be average compared to your usual Zi Char joints. My dad’s review: comme ci comme ca.

Here’s a rundown of our dishes:
- Hotplate beancurd: beancurd was cooked well, but the sauce wasn’t very flavourful, and the prawns were the frozen type which were defrosted
- Salted egg pork ribs rice: generous portions of pork, which are tender and fragrant (a waft of curry leaves), given the price
- Mee tai bak soup: an abundance of mee tai bak but sorely lacking ingredients (only bits of minced pork, mushroom, salted fish & prawns), with a pretty average broth
