Two of Singapore’s finest Hawker Centre Dim Sum - Five Star Hong Kong Dim Sum Mei Ling Street vs Neptune Hong Kong Tim Sum Marine Parade
They were listed in the straits times and misstamchiak, so I was a little disappointed. In 2014, they also won the Singapore Hawker Masters for Indian mee goreng. Their standards have most likely deteriorated.
This is an old school Western Food stall and they have a wide range of favourites from Fish & Chips to Chicken Chop and Steak. I had the Fish & Chips where the batter is crispy, along with the fresh fish meat. The Chicken Chop is a good alternative too if you feel that Fried Chicken Cutlet is too sinful.
Siew Mai, Fried Prawn Dumplings, Char Siew Chang Fun, Har Gow and Crystal Dumplings, all of which were nice except for the Chang Fun. That was too thick for me.
It is worthy trying if you want to satisfy your dim sum craving in a no-frills setting, but not something I will specially travel down for.
The gravy was creamy, lux and full of bite. So enjoyable to scoop up.
While it is not exactly Taiwanese cuisine, the mee sua and fried chicken might satisfy any cravings you have until you can head to Taiwan for the real deal again.
The duck is marinated and cooked well, but not as dry and gamey like others.
I usually low carbs/no carbs. this i enjoyed and finished everything today.
It can be such an investment of time and effort, but Roland Restaurant’s chilli crabs are definitely worth getting your hands (and everything else) deliciously dirty for.
