Brunch @ Koufu Changi City Point

Long overdue post... Went over to a R&R early brunch in end August with parents at Changi City Point... We went to Koufu at 2nd Level and decided to order 1 dish each to share and then get 1 more to share... My mum decided to get the Hakka Grinded Tea Rice, which is also the first dish we tuck in, thinking that the flavour should be the lightest... but we were wrong... The 九层塔leaves might have been added a little too much, and it snatches away the flavours of the other ingredients... Else, it taste quite good... My mum also side-dished a plate of Hakka Tau Foo and Hakka fried egg, which taste ok, normal...


Next is the Bibimbap which I ordered. Quite nice, but felt the sea kelp (???) can be cut to thinner slices... Will definitely order again next time... The side dishes are typically small-portioned and so-so...


The 3rd dish we makan is the Nasi Briyani that my dad gotten. Again, taste is quite ok but nothing super outstanding...


We also ordered a 笼 of Har Kau and Siew Mai each... The Har Kau is good!!! At least to my liking... The prawns are of reasonable size and surprisingly crisp... sorry, succulent... The Siew Mai is not as good though... Maybe we are too pampered by the dim-sum stall "Neptune" in Marine Parade... Hahaha...



After a couple of hours of walking and window shopping, we decided to have a short break before heading back home. We went to Hong Kong Sheng Kee Dessert and gotten some snacks, including the Fried Fish Skin, which is surprisingly GOOD... Crispy and 酥, it is so nice to go with drinks during chit-chats with family or friends... The topping seem to be like meat floss with 酸梅 or 金桔 sauce, which helps to relieve the heaviness taste of fried food... Only complain will be the slight hint of slightly overly-reused oil used to fry the fish skin...


My own dessert is the black sesame paste with glutinous rice balls... Quite nice... Of course, it can't beat the one in Chinatown, hahaha....
