The char siew was not bad, as I remembered it from Keong Saik Road – sweet, caramelised in parts and fairly tender. The sio bak was so so though – the crackling was thin and not so crackling.
Though roast ducks have a tendency to have a thick layer of white fat on it, this was just the right amount as the fat melted like butter and gave the meat an extra fragrant burst of flavour. It was oh so sinful, but oh so good.
very good wanton noodles, qq noodles and excellent chilli & sauce.
There was a light and slightly bitter kopi flavour, rounded out by the condensed and evaporated milk, making for a smooth and easy-to-drink cup. There are stronger cups, but this was a fairly good one.
I was more impressed with Sweetea Caffe’s ambience and view compared to their high tea set.
Overall, the Golden Cafe serves pretty decent zichar dishes at affordable prices in the central business district area.
