Dinner @ Wan Chai Food Centre

We drove all the way to town, but hadn't known where to eat .... but finally ended up at Wan Chai Food Centre in town.

CNY songs were playing in the air, heightening the festive mood. I loved the brightly lit exterior, where lots of tables were set up.


Not much choice of vegetables that evening, it being the rainy season and the restaurant was closing for CNY the next day. So in the end we ordered "Four Heavenly Kings", supposed to be made up of a medley for 4 types of vegetables. However, I counted only 3 types on the platter that evening. The portion was small.

Okra, with long beans and eggplant were 3 types of vegetables, unless of course, they counted garlic as type no. 4. 

Black Pomfret Deep-fry
Looks wise and taste wise, I think I preferred the one at Airy Cafe we ate the other day.... the 2 oranges were given out free by the restaurant for dessert .... 

Drunken freshwater prawns
We ordered a pair of freshwater prawns, steamed with egg and wine. I had not known that one of the prawns was male and the other was female, differentiated by the colour of the shell and the texture of their meat. Taste wise, it was alright, but not quite to our palate. The pair of prawns cost RM50.00.

All in all, we paid RM84.50 for our meal, inclusive of 2 drinks ....
