A full bodied and almost creamy soup, with fresh fish and prawns. The portions of rice and soup were a bit small though for a $10.80 bowl.
We can say that all three kinds of porridge that we had at Chao Ting 潮亭 Far East Square were very good. Unless you really like prawns, we suggest saving $2 and order either of the fish slice options as we found them equally enjoyable. The plain sliced fish is probably more healthy but the fried fish has a firmer nicer texture.
we do believe the delicious bowls churned up by Chao Ting may very well transform pao fan into a classic Singaporean dish.
the whole family could enjoy this place if it were open on evenings and weekends.
what makes them better than your everyday fish soup is their careful approach to ingredients: a savory and earthy broth, pleasantly thick fish slices
My tip is to be there early if your schedule allows to avoid the queue.
