It is an hour before the website exclusive screening of Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens. Feeling bored and being an emotional eater, I sat myself down in a booth at Boon Tong Kee, and ordered a "light lunch" of sweet and sour pork and hainanese-style chicken rice.Do NOT order the sweet and sour pork. (Let the Force guide you before choosing this dish.) It is a pretty-looking dish (arguably), but you are getting very thin "cafeteria-style" slices of pork good for one person, and sauce that is milder than Chowking's. The price most likely reflects how the dish was dressed up--a bed of salad greens and a generous sprinkling of what looked like mango bits, whole cherry tomatoes, and chopped red onion. I can understand the "fusion" in the mango and tomato, but the salad greens seemed too "cheffy" for me. I don't get it.On the bright side, the hainanese-style chicken rice was really good. What possessed me to pair this with an assertively-flavored dish with a sauce...I'll never know. I guess I was just curious. I might have to come back and order the steamed chicken.

I am very happy. Chinese food really is comfort food. First time in Boon Tong Kee and the experience was great! Great, great food! My favorite is the #charsiu and the crispy pork belly. Ordered their chicken rice and everything just went well with it. God! I'm still thinking about all of that tonight. And surprisingly cheap! Winner!And our server Jara is one awesome girl. Very attentive and she even told us about the unlimited dimsum. Must try and I will definitely be back!

Decided to have a client dinner tonight at another regular restaurant. We decide to try several things to test the menu as we where both very very hungry. So here are the favorites we tried which was a mix of a few different items from seafood to soups and roast chicken.We tried for appetizers Prawn Toast with Green Tea Mayo (pretty good), half Crispy Roast Chicken (a little disappointed with this as was not as tender as I thought especially for the price), Think Soup with Fish Maw Crabmeat and Beancurd (a very good serving as they say it's for 3 people but u can certainly feed 5 people for sure with this serving), Yam Ring with Stir-Fried Seafood (Yam ring was a very interesting taste and pretty awesome with the fresh seafood) and of course we added all this with Yang Chow Fried Rice also this was a very large serving so for the rice lovers you certainly will love this :)
