Keng Eng Kee Seafood 瓊榮記海鲜 (Bukit Merah)

Treated my LaoBu (老媽) her birthday at Keng Eng Kee Seafood that is situated near Alexandra Village Food Centre where there's the popular King Avocado drink. Nearby, at block 127, there's always long queue for the popular fish soup stall and Poh Cheu during lunch hour. Last but not least, the traditional bakery shop at block 122 where we'll patronise.
