It has been long time coming since I have tasted beef kway teow exuding that smoky aroma.
鈻柂
Now, does it taste good as good as it looks?? The kway teow fried to the right texture, not too limp and not too hard. A pretty slight charring was testament #epitome of the wok's breath. Gravy was black bean base, thereby a tad salty. Beef soft to the bite.
鈻柂
Pair it with this inhouse special chilli sauce. It bears a gentle spicy heat with a most delightful tangy tone.

Por Kee eating house, as far as I can remember, has been around for decades. There is a certain charm to it. Sitting here almost felt like time stood still. Worth a visit, if you are in the hood.

There are 7 types of chicken with different sauces. We had the imperial ginger, dang gui, curry, assam and mala chicken. My favorite was the imperial for its obvious gingerly tones. The assam, I find, was sweet rather than tangy. Curry was flavorful, however, I prefer the meat to be steeped in the curry sauce longer for a fuller taste. If you prefer alot of heat, go for the mala one.
鈻柂
Only chicken legs are used as they tend to be juicier and absorbs flavors easier. Prices are reasonable, $9.50 nett, served with chicken rice and soup.
鈻柂
And not forgetting, 13 types of coffee from the 13 Malaysian states. I recommend the one from Terengganu if you prefer coffee with "oomph" aka kopi kau.

The soup here is sweet, flavorful and the essence of the crustacean stood out. It should be the #epitome of prawn noodle soup. Fresh prawns is a definite must.

It is habitual for me to order noodle soup with less noodles and more soup. Personally, there were too much noodles and little soup (even though I said afew times ...less noodles, please). But never mind, I still slurped the soup to satisfy my mood for soup!

Well, for one, it helps to retain the heat. It is old school and food tastes somewhat slightly better.

I had to try @house_of_happiness_sg lorbak claypot noodles. The braised pork belly was tender, fats melty and decadent. Noodles, perhaps, were abit too much for me. Broth piping hot which was comforting. However, I wished atad more seasoning to the broth were added to bring out a tinge of flavor.
鈻柂
Would love to try the various claypots and sides but it was just me, myself and I. Perhaps another visit soon.

Mad cravings for luncheon meat and tomato soup.
馃敻锔忦煍革笍
Hearty tomato broth to drive the chills away. Egg yolks too much to handle. Could only gorge one. Luncheon meat was my "once in a blue moon" lustful indulgence. 馃敻锔忦煍革笍
A happy but most ladylike burp!

The March series features Chef Aitor Jeronimo Orive and Chef Oldrich Sahajdak from Prague. One of the course from its 7-course menu is this "Oxtail Bomba Rice". So befitting its name, it definitely "bomba-ed" the palate with its rich intense flavors.

Time to spice the heat up a notch. Nothing beats a bowl of luscious fiery "so good tongue numbing" noodles to make you hot and sweaty.

A welcoming sight of roasted ducks, chickens and charsiew hanging with the oil dripping. Enough to make one drool.
鈻柂 Charsiew crisp at the edges, sweet and with abundance of fats. But what wowed my tastebuds was the roasted duck. Skin glimmered in the light, so thin and crispy, similarly to peking duck. Flesh juicy and moist. After many bites, what was left was an oily film on my lips like a shimmering lipgloss.
鈻柂
I have never tried the original one across the causeway. So if you have, share your thoughts with me.
鈻柂
Extensive menu. I will be back with reinforcements.

Hokkien mee served on opeh leaf. The leaf comes from the betel nut palm.
鈻柂
Because it was just me, myself and I, I ordered an individual portion instead of the claypot version. The difference, it does not have the thicker chunks of sio bak but rather very thin sliced ones. Prawns were petite but sweet.
鈻柂
It was served wrapped up, tied with a rubberband. Aunty said to let it sit for 3 minutes before unwrapping. I assume it was to let the opeh do its work of keeping the flavors infused. The hokkien mee looks really tempting in the leaf. It had very little gravy, more dry than usual. And I could not detect any wokhei. The frying was fast, too fast, in my opinion for the mee to soak up the breath of the wok. The sambal chilli was spicy bearing a tangy tone.
鈻柂
Perhaps the claypot version will be nicer. Perhaps another visit. We shall see.
