Vanda Terrace
Our usual lunching venue after our gym sessions at Orchid Country Club. Mum's out-of-the-blue suggestion lead us to having dinner here once again- its been long since we last patronised. They have very much improvised on their outlook and menu, introducing various new local, western, cze char and even dimsum dishes.
1/2 Dozen Chicken Satay with Condiments ($4.50)
6 sticks of tender chicken meat with a good glazing marinade makes up my preferred appetiser here. The dish comes complete with a wonderful homemade peanut dip and cubes of cucumber, onions as well as ketupat rice.
Deep fried Beancurd with Satay Peanut Sauce ($4)
Daddy loves this. Well deep-fried beancurd with no trace of oozing oil, topped with some peanut gravy and entirely covered with crunchy beansprouts and cucumber shreds.
Bitter Gourd Hor Fun ($7)
Fried flat rice noodles with prawns, squid, fish slices and bitter gourd in black bean sauce. a popular dish! This chef-recommended signature dish have been in the menu since our very first visit, and it still remains as one of my favourite main. A large plate of horfun bathed in a savoury thick gravy then generously topped with 3 deshelled tiger prawns, tender squid, toman fish chunks, bittergourd and egg. My only grouse was the slightly clumpy horfun.
"Live" Toman Fish Bee Hoon Soup ($6.80)
Enjoy the wholesome goodness of sliced "live" toman fish with bee hoon and vegetables in chef's special broth. Mum's usual order of her healthier choice with a tasty soup.
Fried Kway Teow with Cockles ($7)
Fried kway teow and yellow noodles in sweet soya sauce with cockles, fishcakes, prawns, chives and egg for an unbeatable delight to your palate. They were sure good with words, but this ended up doubly disappointing with that description. It looks pretty inappetising with that awful tone of charred dark brown and the prawns were especially tiny. Dad commented that its over sweet and saltish, obviously not intending to finish it up.
The food here may be a tad more expensive than the hawker pricing but its worth the generous portions and fresh quality ingredients used. I'd call it high-class hawker fare. Moreover, you get very pleasant dining environment with a good view of the golfclub, televisions and even live singing.
