A Soupy Chinese Claypot...

This used to be a coffee shop selling 'Chicken Rice' and it have recently changed into something different. Since we were looking for a nearby alternative, my friends were recommending this place. Hence, I ended up giving this place a try too.

'Sambal Seafood Claypot'(叁芭海鲜砂煲)
The dishes over here are pretty much similar to those that you can
find and get in a normal 'Cze Char' chinese restaurant. However, the
food over here are...

served in a claypot. And another speciality over here would be the fact
that most of the dishes over here will be served with either gravy or
soup. As for the 'Sambal Seafood' that I have ordered, initially I
thought that it would be a claypot of stir-fried ingredients without
any gravy, but it ended up to be a large variety of ingredients cooked
in a pot of 'Spicy Sambal Gravy'.

I started off scooping and covering the bowl of rice with lots of
gravy. I didn't expect the gravy to be this good. Pretty much similar
to a bowl of good 'Curry', the gravy can boost the taste of an ordinary
bowl of rice to something special, spicy and delicious. Since the gravy
also contains small tiny bits of vegetables and seafood, the sensation
is equivalent, no I think that it's much better than a plate of 'Sambal
Fried Rice'. The fresh and spicy seafood ingredients are a big (+) on
its own. By the way, ingredients like 'Sliced fish', 'Crabmeat Sticks',
'Sotongs', 'Mushrooms', 'Lady Fingers', 'Onions' and 'Prawns' have been
added into this tasty claypot. There's one other thing that I like about
the claypot over here, would be the fact that the ingredients didn't
ended up to be soggy at all and the chef over here managed to blend the
taste of each and every ingredient with the taste of the nice 'Spicy
Sambal Gravy', which is another big (+).

The name of this stall would be
'Lao Wang Claypot Delights'(老王砂煲小厨).
It's located inside one of the coffee shops located beneath
'Blk 263 Serangoon Central'.
