Cheap Zi Char Restaurant with Air-Con
The weather is so hot we’ll either eat in or look for places with air-con. The nearest air-conditioned place to our place is this new zi char restaurant – 小青岛. I guess it is run by some Chinese cooks as their style of cooking reminds me of when I am in Shanghai!
A new “restaurant” amongst the row of old shops at Whampoa Road Blk 81. A red “小青岛饭店” to welcome patrons.
It was dinner time but there weren’t many customers… *but it’s air-conditioned* Most of them come in groups of family and seem like residents.
Braised Tofu 红烧豆腐。
Sweet sour fish. 酸甜鱼片。I love this dish – it’s very CRISPY!
干煸鱿鱼。Hot squid. Very hot – the chilli padi seeds are all over.
Overall, would recommend this restaurant to the residents here. Wide variety of chinese food (zi char style). Total for 3 dishes, 2 bowls of rice and 1 glass of barley – $22 only. Priced like normal hawker centre zi char, but this comes with the extra perk – the COOL air. Thumbs up for the sweet sour fish too!
