Kway chap 2 pax takeaway was ok. Prices really gone up for $9 now Noodles were fine although soup a bit bland. Could have more intestines but perhaps due to rising costs. Only kway chap and possibly duck noodle option here so take it as you will.

Paid $3.60 a plate of braised duck kway teow (inclusive of additional egg at $0.60). The kway teow was soft and springy. The duck meat was sufficiently flavoured and tender. But, overall of food was just average. Service was fast as there …

Yu Kee Set $8 ~ Duck meat, egg, beancurd, bean sprouts, peanuts. The price doesn't seems worth the value. The meat so-so, at least not so hard. The sauce & rice were delicious. The sambal chilli was dry and burnt.
