After spending half of the day cycling a relatively long distance, since I haven't been eating spicy stuff for a pretty long period, I decided to treat myself to something spicy. Therefore...
'Long Jing Tea'(龙井茶)
Since the charges for all the different types of Chinese Tea over here
are the same, I decided to go for some Chinese Green Tea. Probably I
have been drinking too much 'Black Tea' or 'Pu-Er Tea', therefore I find
the taste of this tea slightly a bit too light. :|
'Si Chuan Style Spicy Chicken'(口水鸡)
In short, this is a plate of white cold tender chicken covered with spicy
sauce. In fact, the white chicken is pretty much similar to the Hainanese
chicken that you can get from a chicken rice stall. However, probably they
have reduce the amount of chillies or spices into the dish, therefore I
personally find the dish a bit too boring or perhaps it's my tolerance
for spicy stuff have gone up again?
'Si Chuan Zha Jiang Noodles'(川味炸酱面)
Pretty much similar to the previous dish, though the noodles are pretty
good, but the amount of spicy sauce isn't sufficient enough. Most
importantly, this dish isn't spicy enough. Though the balance between
the ingredients were maintained properly, but like what I said, by adding
a bit more sauce and a bit more spicy touch to this dish will definitely
make it much more interesting.
'Si Chuan Style Boiled Fish'(水煮鱼片)
Though most of the dish over here isn't spicy enough, but they have
managed to present the good old 'Si Chuan' style dishes over here. As for
'Si Chuan' dishes, besides for being spicy, you should be also be getting
a certain degree of numbness on your tongue, as you eat 'Si Chuan' dishes.
Well, though the spicy taste haven't really blend into the slice fishes,
but it's pretty satisfying already. If they have boiled it a bit more
longer, the fishes would have tasted even much more heavenly. By the way,
vegetables and the taste of the soup is something that one can really
look forward to. :P
'Spicy Dumplings'(红汤抄手)
Though this and the upcoming dish are 'dumplings', but this comes with
a bowl of spicy soup. However, it's not spicy enough and I think that
too much soup was given, therefore the dumplings are a bit too soggy.:(
'Rainbow Dumplings'(彩虹特色蒸饺)
Yellow - 'Crabmeat Steamed Dumplings'(蟹肉南瓜蒸饺)
Orange - 'Shrimp Steamed Dumplings'(虾肉胡萝卜蒸饺)
White - 'Tofu Steamed Dumplings'(白菜豆腐蒸饺)
Brown - 'Mixed flavour Steamed Dumplings'(三鲜蒸饺)
Purple - 'Pork Steamed Dumplings'(猪肉四季豆蒸饺)
Green - 'Chives Steamed Dumplings'(韭菜鸡蛋蒸饺)
How should I put it, I think that out of all the 6 different flavours,
I personally find the seafood dumplings to be much more delicious.
As most of the dumplings out there are stuffed with pork meat, but
dumplings stuffed with seafood are pretty rare. The strong taste and
fragrance that comes from the seafood are delicious reasons for you
to scream out loudly, Delicious~~~~~
'Mango Pomelo Sago Sweet Soup'(杨枝甘露)
Probably the chefs are much more skilful in the preparation of 'Si Chuan'
style dishes. Therefore the dessert isn't exciting enough or perhaps it's
due to the fact that the earlier dishes are much more stronger in taste?
So where can you try all these dishes?
The name of this restaurant would be 'Xiao La Jiao'(小辣椒) and if you are doing a direct translation of the words (小辣椒), it literally means small chilli. Anyway this restaurant is located inside '112 Katong Shopping Mall'.
