Food made with love alw tastes heavenly. It doesnt hav to be expensive or valuable in nature, jus food made from the heart. U work hard for ur food. U decide if it is worthy to be placed in your mouth... I call this philosophy: Igersm :)

HK Street Tze Char
This tze char stall has been regularly frequented by my family. We simply love the Sliced Fish Soup (S-$4.50, M-$8.50,L-$11), they hav the version with XO but trust me the original is alr packed with wholesome flavour. Idk how they do it but the soup’s oh-so-gd tt it leaves a sticky after-taste, tt shld mean sth rite? Tt it’s not diluted like water. PLUS it’s not-at-all FISHY. With the sliced fish more of CHUNKS, this fish soup scores!
XO Slced Fish Soup but this bowl doesnt hav XO, no tipsy tipsy
We had the San Lao Hor Fun (S-$4)- another signature. The Guo Tiao is first fried quickly in the wok with a little oil to make it smooth and QQ aka chewy. Then a little sesame oil is also added to give it a hint of flavour and smell. Then the gravy is cooked with the usual Chinese sauces like soy sauce, etc including the sliced fish pieces and given a little corn flour to thicken. It is lavishly poured onto the first fried Hor Fun and then VO-LA!
The Omelette was so-so, but I quite like it cos of the generous leaping of radish bits in the egg. I love my cai po!
They hav other signature’s like Assam Fish Head (seasonal price) and Prawn Paste Chicken i.e. deep fried chicken. However, according to my parent’s observations, they hav been stealthily increasing its prices. Mus be so, after establishing a regular customer base. But when the craving for nice fish soup comes and a little money in the pocket, I sure wont mind!
