We’ve come here on several occasions, and have never had a bad experience, either with staff or the food!
The staff come by every now and then to ask if we’re ok, and if we need anything. How can you fault such service?
The food…
For the myriad of dishes we’ve dug into on their menu, these come to mind.
The Guiness Stout braised ribs. Not like the usual sweet ones we’ve gotten accustomed to, but almost like an oyster-sauce braised taste with fall off the bone meat!
Their Claypot eggplant sizzles as we pick them up, and melts as we pop each morsel into our mouths!
Wasabi deshelled prawns. They don’t smother their crispy battered prawns with the sweet tangy sauce, but instead cover each one sparingly just enough to taste the sauce, but not enough to overwhelm the battered delights! Oh yes! Did I also mention, the batter was thin and crispy, and gave the prawns the right amount of crunch without stealing the thunder from them!
All’s Good here, and like I mentioned earlier, it can get pricey, and on crowded evenings, a little noisy too, but like my Dad used to say, ‘Good things don’t always come cheap!’…
We ordered sea cucumber duck, crispy chicken, cereal prawn, Yam ring,Fish Maw Soup, red wine pork rib, scallop fry brocolli and Birthday. The taste was good and portion was big. And the service was good, the waiter even help us to take family photo. Environment was confortable & short walking distance to carpark. Very good place for family gathering.
Been wanting to have a traditional Chinese restaurant delicacy similar to the wedding type. Wonderful dinner here with all the favourite dishes! Will be back for more.
Not many old school restaurants with genuine traditional taste left. Suckling pig, steamed fish, pork ribs, scallops with asparagus are superb. Skip the orh nee, machine blended until texture is slimy.
Hidden Jem inside amk neighbourhood. Affordable and delicious Chinese Cuisine. Have a family gathering of 10 pax. Ordered deer meat, fried rice, cereal BIG juicy prawns, fragrance coffee pork ribs, tofu, fried ice cream(must order for kids), and customised vegetarian food for my wife. Well served and attentive staff. Parents and relatives happy and very full. Will go again during CNY.
Found a hidden gem – a decent traditional Hokkien style Chinese restaurant smacked in the middle of AMK! Foods are nice (didn’t take pic of orhnee and char meesua).
Shoutout to the young Chinese national girl staff who is very friendly, attentive, and proactively making recommendations and small conversations with my parents!?
