Spring Court Restaurant Pte Ltd (詠春园)

I brought my family to Spring Court Restaurant today for Fathers' Day celebration. This restaurant has been around since 1929, they are one of the oldest family operated restaurants. There was even a movie produced by Raintree Pictures in 2011 to capture Spring Court's memorable years in Great World. We ordered 2 rolls of Popiah, Roasted Chicken, Steamed Soon Hock, Braised Dried Oysters and Assorted Vegetables with Black Moss, Tofu with Minced Meat and Spinach and last but not least, Braised Noodles with Shredded Meat. For the Popiah, it is very tasty and filled with alot of ingredients like bean sprouts, fried bean curd, carrots, strips of turnip, minced hard boiled eggs and minced meat. For the Roast Chicken, the skin is nice and crispy on the outside and the meat taste fragrant but it is a little salty due to the salt that was sprinkled on the chicken. The Steamed Soon Hock is delicious and fresh, the fish was cooked with light soya sauce and other spicies and it tastes very good. The Braised Dried Oysters ans Assorted Vegetables with Black Moss is tasty, the oyster sauce was poured over the dish hence adding more flavour to the vegetables and mushrooms making it nice and smooth. The Tofu was nice and soft and they sit on a layer of spinach. A generous serving of minced meat in thick sauce was poured over the tofu, making the entire dish very delicious. As for the Braised Noodles with Shredded Meat, I find that it's not too dry and the gravy is not oily especially when your stomach is almost full. Overall I find that the food is pretty good and definitely one of the better ones that I have tasted.
