Next, was the Fried Pork Knuckle…
When I cut the fried pork knuckle, I could feel the skin cracking signaling the crispiness of it. Pork knuckle might looks like an easy dish, but sadly its not. Some would have crispy skin but the meat will totally overcooked while some might have tender meat but the skin is not crispy. Finding a right combination of both, is quite hard actually. Luckily, the fried pork knuckle here had crispy skin with tender meat. Came together with the jelly fish, it went well with the chili sauce. This dish might look fat, but it was the ladies who ate the most out of it.
Salad prawn was next. Disguised with the salad, the prawn was nothing less than decent.
La La soup was next. First thing first, la la was not overcooked and the soup was deeply flavoured with hints of chinese wine. The whole package came together well.
The mixed seafood with beancurd. A mixture of seafood with tomato sauce poured on the beancurd. Some might love this, some might have different preference on this. I would say I prefer to stay neutral on this.
The special mixed vegetables didn’t disappoint me. The vegetables were cooked nicely enough to have the “crunchiness” feel. This was decent.
As the feast went on, we were served with claypot chicken with yam. I haven’t had such dish for some time. Well, I must say that personally I would prefer the yam to be softer but the overall taste was decent.
It was Rachel’s first experience with chicken fish. Oh well, I had a few times with my family before. We loved it. Rachel has a personal preferences on fish, so anything related with fish she would rate it slightly higher.
How could we complete the lunch without their famous asam grilled fish. Grilled to perfection, the asam grilled sting ray was a popular dish. For those who fancy spicy, this will be a match making dish. Not to mention, the tasty spicy chili sauce that blends well with the fish. It was good.
In general, the food was good and the place was comfortable. Didn’t know much about the pricing as it was a food review. My personal preferences? Pork Knuckle, don’t miss it!
Thanks again, Big Boys Oven, Ken of FoodPOI, Richard, Edward and Wang Zi Kafe for the invitation.

The pork knuckle sound and looks interesting. Not many people can pull off a good pork knuckle as I have tried. Most claim they can but the finished product goes wrong. I'll put this place on my next pork-adventure. Thanks.

I went there for dinner with my family awhile ago. The cord fish is not fresh, the lala was not as tasty as the one I tried in Kuchai Lama. We order 3 types of drinks, 2 of them were not nice too. I do like the strawberry pudding. The customer service is excellent.
The grill fish is not nice, the steam fish is ok. Food is average. Nothing special.
