Great no-frills dining. If you are looking for an authentic filling meal with fried seaweed beancurd, prawn rolls, radish omelette and fish maw collagen soup, Tan Ser Leng Herb Restaurant is the place to be! The fish maw soup was filled with herbs giving it a delicious and traditional herbal taste.
Atmosphere was great too, the air ventilation was good as there were ample fans. Would recommend!
I was craving herbal soup today and came across a reputable restaurant near where we were looking for lunch. After a short wait, we managed to get a table and were immediately impressed by the variety of dishes and soups on the menu.
Since it was my first visit, I asked the server for recommendations. We decided to share the claypot turtle soup and the cordyceps flower kampung chicken soup. She also suggested two of their signature side dishes which is the jade tofu and handmade fresh prawn rolls which we ordered to complement our meal.
The claypot turtle soup was hearty and full of rich herbal flavor, while the cordyceps flower kampung chicken soup was light, nourishing, and refreshing. I found the signature jade tofu impressed with its delicate texture and vibrant taste and the handmade fresh prawn roll stood out with its crispiness and the natural sweetness of the prawns.
Altogether, the dishes were well-prepared, flavorful and complemented one another perfectly. We ended our meal with free complimentary ice cream which is free flow for all the guests.
Strongly recommend for those who like herbal soup to give this restaurant a try and plenty of road side free parking on Sunday and after 5pm on weekday too.
Tried Tan Ser Seng Herbal Soup (since 1946) and loved the hearty flavors! The Cordyceps Flower Kampung Chicken Soup was rich and comforting, while the Jade Tofu and Prawn Roll were crispy yet light. They even treated us to a new dish for feedback . A wholesome meal with rice and refreshing water chestnut — definitely worth a try for authentic traditional flavors!
Had lunch on a Sunday and the place was packed. The Ginseng Black Chicken Soup was aromatic, robust and a strong ginseng flavor, soothing without being overly bitter. The black chicken meat was very tender and fall-off-the-bone. Very hearty and nourishing. Perfect for a rainy day or when you need a revitalizing pick-me-up.
The preserved radish (Chai Poh) Omelette is a classic, homestyle favorite. This omelette was fluffy, generously paired with salty-sweet preserved radish, and has a crispy edge.
The jade tofu was silky and smooth. Yam rice was fragrant and savory with soft, subtle chunks of yam.
Overall, a very satisfying and wholesome meal.
Headed down at 430pm before the dinner crowd on a weekend. Fish maw soup was extremely flavourful and rich. They were generous with the amount of fish maw and also had two small abalone. Soup was packed with collagen and they allowed for one free refill.
Yam rice was fragrant and paired well with the soup.
Great place for family meals. Would come again to try the other soups.
Went on a Saturday late afternoon for an early dinner with my partner.
Ordered the Ginseng Black Chicken soup and the Fish Maw Collagen Soup with garlic cucumber and Jade tofu as sides.
The Ginseng Black Chicken Soup was super flavourful with the herbal taste. Meat was super tender, with the meat slipping off the bones.
What amazed us more was the Fish Maw Collagen soup. Ingredients was generous, and the soup is thick with Collagen. Highly recommended for those who are a fan of Collagen based soup.
Overall, highly recommend for those who are looking for a good soup place.
