Yan Ji Wei Wei Seafood Soup @ Woodlands Centre Food Centre - Famous Woodlands Seafood Soup

This has been a much over due visit. I have always wanted to visit Yan Ji Wei Wei Seafood Soup at Woodlands Centre Food Centre near the Woodlands Checkpoint but the distance to the far north is just too discouraging. But for the seek of good food, I just have to make the long journey to taste the bowl of seafood soup myself.

Seafood Soup 4.5/5

Having tried AS Seafood Soup, I am quite eager to try the difference and compare them. The seafood soup comes in three pricing, $6, $8 and $10. I ordered the Seafood Soup ($10) which comes with crayfish. The stall also offers other variety such as Promfret Fish Seafood Soup and Grouper Seafood Soup. You can even add fish maw for an additional cost.

Seafood Soup 4.5/5

Compared with AS Seafood Soup, both stalls use the same ingredients for the delectable bowl of seafood soup. There are crayfish, prawns, dory fish and minced pork. However Yan Ji seafood soup is a notch better because the soup is more robust and intense.

Pig Trotter 3.8/5

Besides the seafood soup, we also ordered the Pig Trotter ($7) to try. For the pricing, this is consider quite a huge portion. I like variety for my meal, hence this is a good addition on top of the seafood soup to go with my bowl of rice.

The question is whether it is worth making the trip to try Yan Ju Wei Wei Seafood Soup. In my opinion, it is worth it. I have not known of another place that does such a delicious bowl of seafood soup, that is packed with rich intense flavours. The closest competitor would be AS Seafood Soup but it is still a notch behind.

164 Stirling Road Wanton Mee @ Mei Ling Vista - An Awesome Plate of Wanton Mee

Located in the quiet neighbourhood of Mei Ling Vista at block 164 Stirling Road is a hidden gem that sells a delicious plate of KL style wanton mee. Thanks to the raving reviews from fellow foodies, I made my way down to the little humble stall in the coffeeshop to have a taste of this slurping goodness.

Wanton Mee 4.5/5

The plate of Wanton Mee cost $3 but I ordered the special one at $4 that comes with the additional fried wanton. The noodles used is unlike those springy Hong Kong type but it does comes with a delectable bite. When tossed in the dark sauce, it allows the sauce to be coated even more on it, allowing the full enjoyment.

Wanton Mee 4.5/5

Besides the noodles and sauce, what make this a good plate of wanton mee is the char siew made by the stall itself. The char siew has a nice balance of sweetness, char and fattiness. With all these components put together, no wonder it received the thumbs up from many established foodies.

Accompanying the plate of wanton mee is the pork stuffing wrapped in a thin and silky wanton skin, that is decently good. What delight me more is to see radish in the bowl of soup.

I am glad that I made the journey to the quiet neighbourhood to check out the stall. The stall cooks a plate of wanton mee that has all the components coming together for a delicious plate of goodness. If you have not try it, I would recommend making a trip down. It is worth it.
