Wan Chai Hong Kong Tea Room (Sembawang Shopping Center)

If you go to the Sembawang Shopping Center and is looking for some food, you must be fretting on what to eat. Haha. The choices there are so limited that you have to pick one of them somehow or another (well, that is if you don't want to brave the heat to go to the nice food just opposite the street).

At least, that's what happened to us. So, even though I had no much great recollections/reviews about this place, we decided to give it a try. It was surprisingly good.

I ordered some beef baked rice. Well, Chinese style of course! Haha. Just look at the sauce covering the meat. Haha. And the limited cheese. That's a Chinese-Ang Moh mix I would say. Hahahahaha!


Let me repeat again. It's really surprisingly good! I was not expecting too much from this dish because their menu did not managed to appeal me at all! But heys, the rice was really special! There's some nice taste about it. I have no idea what is that taste. I only know that the taste made the rice tasted delicious. The cheese and the sauce made it perfect.


And if you order a meat dish, you would put your bet on the meat. I've been to many places that sells really nice side dish, but the main dish was just so-so. Not for this! The beef was really tender and it took me by surprise once again! Ha! Together with the black pepper sauce. Wooo! I'm loving it! I totally melt under tender meat you see. Haha. And there's also mushrooms around. Me like!


And my man had another baked rice. It's the chicken drumstick one. Ha! It was really good too! The chicken was grilled nicely. I would expect the sauce on top of it to soften the skin but apparently, it did not! It actually still tasted crispy to me (the outer skin) after some time. In addition, the meat was tender of course! Whoosh!


And each set will come with a soup. Nothing very special about it but it still tasted good.


I am not too sure about other dishes because I remembered that I had bad memories with the place. Not exactly bad but I remembered criticizing at it. Well, that was quite a few years back, so maybe they had improved! Give them a chance!!
