Menu

Choose the flavour, fish and vegetable for the Grilled Fish. You can also add on the barbecue skewer, cold dishes, snacks and beverages.

Grilled Fish with Green Pepper 鲜青椒烤鱼 (凌波鱼) S$45.90

Grilled Limbo fish with green bell peppers and peppercorns. Numbing and spiciness balance well with the salty gravy. Shiok! We added the Golden Combination at S$12.90 (Enoki, potatoes, lotus root, luncheon meat) for the grilled fish.

Grilled Fish with Soy Sauce (Limbo Fish) 酱香烤鱼 (凌波鱼) S$45.90

Non-spiciness, sauce tastes sweet and savoury. But a bit too sweet for my liking. Alternatively, could try Pumpkin soup flavour for non-spiciness. =)

Noodles with onion oil 葱油面 S$5.80

Dumplings with Chilli oil 红油钟水饺 (5 pcs) S$3.80

Lemon & Lime drink 柠檬酸柑茶 & Lemon & Lime with lactic acid milk drink 柠柑乳酸菌
