I was fetching hus from HIS IPT a few weeks back and that's when I drove pass this 24 hour roasted joint. You read it right - 24 hours! So all clubbers/late night supperians who wants a different form of foodie (I.e. not in the form of roti prata, bak chor mee or nasi lemak) can head down for roast duck rice, wanton noodles and the likes.
Tucked away at Sembawang road (Thong Bee road), it can be easily found as its by the roadside. Parking wise, well, I parked at where the landed properties are. :|
We reached at 1030 and look at the amount of ducks and chickens that are still left. Anyway, they served dim sum as well. So its more like a hong kong roasted joint.
I'll skip all formalities and start on my critic - The duck rice (left) wasn't appealing. Full of bones and not much meat within. Although served with a hearty portion of rice, we are here to have duck rice, not just rice. I had the char siew rice (right) which was full of fats. I know guys love their fats, but for girls who are particular about their weight and love MOST (not all) of their meat fat-free, then this isn't the place to go.
I was actually very disappointed with the food as I thought hus and I discovered a new hideout where we can add to the list of eateries.
What perked me up was the dim sum - TOTALLY WORTH IT! Yes, you heard me right.
We had chee cheong fun and the xiao long bao. I didn't take pictures of the chee cheong fun because it didn't last long. HAHA!! I had like 3/4 in my belly till I realised about the photo taking. Even the xiao long bao didn't last long too. Hus was busily devouring those mini dumplings until I had to stop him for photo taking sake
So all you see is one dumpling left. Their chee choeng fun is served thinly which is how the hong kong styled chee cheong fun is served which is what makes me loved them. I don't abhor, but if given a choice between thinly sliced chee cheong fun or those thick sliced ones in sweet sauce from the markets, I'm all for the thinly sliced serving. Maybe because I'm used to cantonese style cooking (My popo is a cantonese) hence when it comes to soup and stuff, my grandma has the touch. :)
In a nutshell, I would go back to Wong Chiew for their dim sum (highly recommended by Evette) but not for their roasted delights.
What about you guys? :)
