The bowl of seafood soup is definitely up to the mark and value for money. Recommended!
Overall, LD and I feel both of Seafood Soup are equally good, however, if we have to choose, we will go for the Batang Fish Seafood Soup.
Their Signature Seafood Soup with Batang Fish comes in 2 sizes ($8/$9.50). One can also opt for their soup with Dory Fish ($7/$8.50) or with Red Grouper ($10.50/$12.50) instead of Batang Fish.
I’d recommend giving Marsiling Handmade Mee Hoon Kueh a go, especially since they’ve been proven a crowd favourite in the area.
Didn't regret ordering the chicken thigh; with curry drenched on it, it was less spicy than the sambal chilli yet no less delicious, especially when the meat managed to retain a tender juiciness that made it all the more irresistible!
The noodle was covered with dark sauce and I was puzzled that it was surprisingly not sweet. I even found it a bit bland and required the green chilli to up the palatability. Texture wise, it's the springy rubber-band kind that I enjoyed.
There's still a tinge of sweetness although it's not the kind coming from the richness of the prawn heads. The prawns were good; deshelled for ease of eating and so fresh with an enjoyable crunchy
The one with coconut filling also seemed to be overcooked as the color shade was much darker. Taste was still quite okay and it, thankfully, didn't have that burnt aftertaste.
I used to have to travel all the way to Marsiling to enjoy this hearty bowl of fish soup. Thankfully now it is nearer home!
The number of high-quality ingredients are impressive, and the soup was packed with the same nostalgic flavour.
