Soon Lai is adept inwards serving Seafood, produce expect out for the seasonal offers similar Glass Noodles amongst Crab. We went for the classics, nosotros idea the Kam Heong Prawns were nicely done. The flavors were bold too the Prawns were fresh, plump. It has the distinctive too alluring smokiness to it... amongst a demeanour on of Kaffir Lime Leaves. The 3-flavored Black Pomfret did non print us from the appearance but it was inwards fact, skillfully cooked. The flesh was moist too soft piece the outer parts of the fish were deep fried to a crisp... slathered amongst a sweet-savory sauce. It tin hold upwards dangerously addictive to munch on the crisp sides of the fish or to relish the meaty-bite amongst Rice. The Signature Village Chicken on the other hand, was non quite well-received. We idea the flavors were overly heavy... it was something similar sweetness too sour Chicken but amongst an indelible sweetness.
Overall, nosotros idea the dishes were boldly seasoned too unopen to of them were quite greasy (typical Chu Char dishes)... endeavour at your ain discretion.
