Dinner one weekend was at this Zhi-Cha place in Tanjong Pagar area. GD's mum have heard rave reviews about the food, especially their Claypot Niang Tofu ( Stuffed Tofu ). This is an old-shop establishment where food served is

Unfortunately the Claypot Niang Tofu was sold out just before we made our order. We were offered another tofu dish which turns out to be very good! A huge chuck of silken tofu deep fried till brown and crispy. Topped off with a minced meant gravy. Goes pretty darn well with rice.

There was also a Stired Fried vegetable with century egg and salted duck eggs. Pretty amazing, the broth turns out pretty sweet from the natural sweetness of the vegetable.



GF's favourite dish - Mai Pian Xia. Pretty decent. Stirred fried beef in blackpepper sauce - didn't try ( ami tuo fou ), i'm not a beef eater. Sweet and sour spare ribs - very good actually. It's becoming almost a must-do these days to serve up to standard sweet and sour spare ribs. It is, IMHO, a good gauge of the standard of food served at that establishment and in Kok Sen, we were not disappointed.
