Kim San Leng Food Court

12th August, Wednesday

Bought these as takeaway, and used my own bowls and plates to hold them.

Pig organs (You Kee Duck Rice . Porridge . Kway Chiap)


I dunno about their eggs and fishcake, since I told them I didn't want those. But the tau pok was on the verge of spoiling, since it had a sour taste. I threw away almost all of it. The pork and pig skin were still all right. Intestines were decent. But the sauce was a bit too sticky and not to my liking.

V's verdict: 5/10


Fishball noodles (Million Fish Ball Noodles)

I wonder if this had any relation to the fishball noodle stall at Mei Xuan Food Court? Because their chinese names were almost the same. This one is called 隆兴百万鱼圆面 while Mei Xuan's is called 隆兴百万鱼圆. Just a difference of one word. Hmm...

From the picture, it looks quite moist. But I don't know why it was so dry after I have stirred it. Probably only one side was moist; the bottom was totally dry. So once I mixed it, it was generally still dry. It's a pity, since the taste was quite all right. And their fishballs were not bad too. If it weren't so dry I would have given it a higher score.

V's verdict: 6/10

Kim San Leng Food Court

1st June, Monday

Steamed Chicken [ (Bugis St) Ming Kee Chicken Rice - Porridge ]



Ok, this is the supposedly famous steamed chicken from Kim San Leng. I went at 520pm, and true enough, this was the only stall that had a queue of 5 to 6 people. The other stalls had either no one or just 1 person queueing.

Well, I must say this wasn't as good as I expected. The chicken was tender and smooth, but it wasn't so good that I was bowled over. The flesh was okay, but not sweet enough. They were saved mainly by their sauce, but it had a tinge of sweetness inside which my father didn't like. I didn't taste it at first, but as I ate more it started to become more obvious.

Overall it was not bad, but I would take Pow Sing's steamed chicken anytime over this. $22 (whole chicken), $11 (half chicken)

V's verdict: 7/10

Kim San Leng Food Court

17th May, Sunday

A food court behind Junction 8. It's well known for its steamed chicken, but I haven't tried it before.

Duck porridge (Yu Kee)



I found this quite bland. The duck wasn't tasty enough too. $3

V's verdict: 5/10


Yong Tau Foo (Koo Kee Yong Tow Foo Mee)



I was a bit disappointed when I saw it, as it looked way better on its display picture. The soup was a bit bland. The noodles were okay after adding the sauce, and the yong tau foo ingredients were all right. Overall, nothing special --- I probably won't eat it again.

V's verdict: 5.5/10
