Loy Sum Juan Restaurant 黎三元酒家

Posted by CyberTron on Sep 06, 2008 12:34AM
Came across this place after reading it from a few blogs. This restaurant is hidden on the 6th floor of Tiong Bahru Plaza, which is accessible only from the lifts. Even when we walk out of the lift, it is still not visible until one walk out and look to the left.

The restaurant decoration though is simple, it gives you a feeling you come to the right place if you looking for some nice tasty food.

We ordered a prawn paste chicken, marmite pork ribs and assorted eggs with vegetables. Each dish is $10 which is pretty reasonable.

Food wise, I found every dish was pretty good. I personally quite enjoy the assort egg with vegetables, which is actually a vegetable dish and soup as well. The marmite pork ribs was pretty good, and is a chef recommended dish. As for the prawn paste chicken, though my friend find it average, I quite enjoy it, partially cos is not too salty. I treat it more like a nicer version of fried chicken. The difference is most places uses chicken wing for their prawn paste chicken, this place actually uses mainly breast meat.

Service wise, mainly the place is not crowded, the waitress were all very attentive, constantly offer to help us pour the soup, and fill up our tea without asking.

Service charge is only 5% at this place, and total bill for our dinner came up to $39.95.

Overall, I think this is quite a nice cosy place for a fuss free dinner which is pretty good value for money.

    The food is quite good and reasonable. The prawn paste chicken was supposed to have originated here. Their other signature dishes is some type of steamed fishhead, I think.

    Gonbei Fine Japanese Cuisine
    CyberTron commented..
    Is diagonally opposite Jogoya. Supposedly the quality is better than Jogoya. Price wise, if we convert currency, then Malaysia is cheaper. If we do not convert currency, then Singapore is cheaper. Generally, a japanese buffet in Siingapore is around SGD30+ range.

    I'm not sure exactly where the original Leong Kee moved to, but I believe the one at Sultan Gate is still there. I also saw one at junction of Jln Besar and Hindoo road. Just at the junction before beancurd city

    Leong Kee (Klang) Bak Kut Teh 梁记(巴生) 肉骨茶 @ Geylang
    CyberTron commented..
    hi! The bak kut teh at this place is Klang style. If you refering to the peppery style Bak Kut Teh you typically find in Singapore, then this is not the place for you. For the peppery style one, the famous ones are probably ones are Balestier Road or the one at Tanjong Pagar complex. For me, I usually just go to Song Fa at Rochor which is decent for me, and more convenient as well.
