Keng Eng Kee Seafood @ Alexandra Village

Crabs were all the craze with a pregnant woman in tow and a bunch of equally ravenous folks. We settled for Keng Eng Kee Seafood after one had a satisfying meal there. 

Sambal Kang Kong

This packed enough spice to whet the appetites for a good meal!

Stir Fried Kailan

Seemingly boring without my favourite baby kalian, loved that it was served piping hot!

Pork Ribs

Meaty and well flavoured but lacked the fragrance that coffee ribs would have otherwise provided.

Ming Zhu Roll

Raving reviews of this made this a must order. This is tau pok stuffed with Chinese ham, cucumber, prawns and a mass of others that came together like a crispy snack. Felt that it lacked flavour.

Yam Ring

This is terribly old school and possibly a must order for dinners that I have attended in the 80’s. Yet seeing it again on the dining table brings a smile. I love digging into the crispy yam ring and relishing the smooth texture of mashed yam. In cases like these, all attention is paid to the ring instead of the stuffing.

Salted Egg Prawns

Each prawn was generously lathered in a delectable salted egg marinate. Loved it that the prawns were fresh too.

Chilli Crab with Mantou

Watery and too sweet, the chilli crab was a clear letdown, albeit crabs were fresh and meat succulent. It was seemingly put together by steaming the crabs and drizzling it with chilli crab gravy. Major pity here when we all thought that the salted egg version would have been homerun-kinda-awesome. Their mantous are hardly like the rest I have attempted, flower shaped and tasteless when all along they have been sweetened.

With all the crowds, I am trying to find a reason to return. Perhaps the yam ring? Above average zichar but pick the dishes properly!
