Teochew Restaurant Huat Kee 1998 Pte Ltd

Today, I was at Huat Kee Teochew Restaurant to celebrate my Dad's birthday. Heard that this Teochew Restarant serves very good Teochew food. There was a wide variety of dishes to choose from ranging from cold dishes to seafood and poultry. Here's what we have ordered:

- Sliced Braised Goose Meat with Braised Pork

The Braised Goose Meat was tasty, it was thinly sliced and it was braised till it has absorbed the flavour from the braised sauce. I find that the Braised Pork can be stewed longer so that the meat can be softer. Ironically, I was also disappointed when the fats did not melt in my mouth; I was hoping for that texture.

- Oyster Omelette

The Oyster Omelette is pretty good, the outer crust is crispy and the inside is soft and fluffy.

- Teochew Style Steamed Promfret

The Steamed Promfret was pretty normal. The promfret weights about  800 grams which is enough for 8 pax. I find that the promfret has a fishy taste even though it was served piping hot. It was kind of disappointing as we thought it was fundamental that a Teochew Restaurant to serves fresh and tasty Steamed Promfret.

- Stir Fry Xiao Bai Cai

The Stir fry Xiao Bai Cai was crunchy and they added the crispy flat fish to add more flavour to the dish.

- Huat Kee Signature Fried Kway Teow

Their famous Fried Kway Teow was fragrant and filled with diced vegetables to neutralise the taste from the preserved radish.

- Yam Paste with Ginko Nut

Their Yam Paste with Ginko Nut was awesome, it was not too sweet and has the natural goodness of the sweet potato and ginko nut. This dish is highly recommended and you must save your stomach for this dish.

Overall, I find that the food is pretty good and you can give it a try if you are looking for good Yam Paste with Ginko for desserts.

Imperial Treasure Super Peking Duck

Today I was at Imperial Treasure Super Peking Duck for lunch with my wife. This is my first time at the restaurant. Heard that their Peking Duck is pretty good but unfortunately we could not try it as we did not pre-order it. Here's what we have ordered instead: -

- Deep Fried Beancurd Skin

The Deep Fried Beancurd Skin is very crispy on the outside and stuffed with fresh prawns on the inside. I find that the ingredients used like the prawns are very fresh.

- Siew Mai

The Siew Mai is filled with fresh prawns making it very crunchy and the overall texture wholesome.

- Steamed Minced Pork Dumpling

The Steam Minced Pork Dumpling is very good, the soup is filled with the goodness from the minced pork. Every mouthful of the dumpling is simply statisfying.

- BBQ Pork Rice Roll

The BBQ Rice Roll is very smooth and silky and goes well with the sweet sauce but I find that it can be even better if the rice roll is even thinner and the BBQ Pork should be less fatty. 

- BBQ Pork Pastry

The BBQ Pork Pastry is delicious, the BBQ sauce is very well done making the pork very tasty. However, I find that the BBQ Pork is a little fatty. I'm quite particular about BBQ Pork. Personally I think that BBQ Pork must be slightly charred and less fatty.

- Egg Tart

The Egg Tart is delicious, the egg custard is soft and smooth. The pastry is light and flaky. This is one of the best Egg Tarts I have tasted. 

- XO Sauce Noodle

The XO Sauce Noodle is basically Mee Pok with XO sauce. I must say that the doneness of the Mee Pok was very good, the texture was springy and it goes well with the XO sauce. This simple dish is pretty good but I find that you can do it yourself if you can find good Mee Pok and XO sauce. 
 
Overall, the total bill come up to S$52.40, I find that the ingredients are fresh and the quality is pretty good but I find that it is kind of pricey for a simple meal like this. You can check out this place if you are shopping around the area.
