I went there last week for lunch.  Crowded.  Tried the Sister curry mee and Chendol.    

 

Well, the curry mee kinda of diluted.  has chicken meat, tak pak, fish cake, bean sprouts. 

 

The chendol is ok. thick coconut milk.

 

The penang fried kuay teow is so long queue. 

 

Bak Kut Teh and claypot rice look nice.

My MiL has never been to jippun so this is the closest we could get her a little bit of the culture.

 

The edamame beans were so fresh that they were still attached to the petiole.

 

The $9.90 donburi was worth every penny with very nice salmons, tuna and amberjack all in one bowl.

 

I like their eel. think it's only $6. very worth it for the $.

Look like I must make a trip to visit my old hometown. Btw, I stay at Ah Hood Rd until early 2001. If I not wrong, d son is a plump person n in d earlier usually take order or supervise his worker. From d tone they spoke cantonese, seems tat they r from either KL or Ipoh who cook very good tze char food. Some time ago, I saw tis plump person take over frying; probably due to deceased of father. Btw, Balestier Rd got famous tao sar piah n cream puff n d shop is at other end of tis tze char stall.

 

Yes. The son is the plump person. He is in the kitchen and also manning the drinks stall. Dinner time mostly son and daughter cooking. Mother is lunch time.

Bro Othello, Lala & sis Pino,

This is d paste. Can get from those market stalls selling dried goods. But not all market stalls sell. If got problem finding it, let me know. Recommend to add 2 slices of Assam, taste even better. Of course subjective lah. Save a lot of money eating outside n best got bigger portion of fish. Haha

 

many thanks!

I love to eat fish, angmohs just dunno what to do with good fish other than deep drying or making fillets with breadcrumbs.

Baked fish is ok ... but better with a bit of sambal on top.

 

That's just my conclusion haha  [laugh]

first time I seen assam slices. heh.  always use the paste with seeds type. 

 

Learnt something new today.

 

http://nonya-cooking.webs-sg.com/assam.html

 

 

The Nonya cooking ingredient Assam or Tamarind is the pulp that is obtained from the pods of the tamarind tree (Tamarindus indica), which is tall and graceful, with sprays of fine leaves. Assam or Tamarind is a sticky fibrous mass which may sometimes include the seeds and the broken seed pods.

When it is in the form of "Tamarind Pulp" it is known as Assam Jawa, while if it is in the form of "Tamarind Pieces" it is known as Assam Keping. 

 

To obtain the Assam or Tamarind  liquid, this pulp is squeezed in a little hot water and then strained through a muslin cloth. 

 

Assam or Tamarind  pieces (including the seed) are often used in place of the pulp; one or two pieces are added to the dish and then removed when the food has attained the required sourness. In addition, Assam or Tamarind  is also available in the dried, sliced form which is known as "sour slices" or Assam Keping orAssam Glugor. However, in this dried, sliced, form it is actually a different fruit (Garcinia atroviridis), but can be used interchangeably withAssam Jawa.
