香香 Xiang Xiang ( Taiwan Food ) @ Bedok Point

Went to 香香 Xiang Xiang ( Taiwan Food ) @ Bedok Point for a late lunch as I have the craving for the mee sua 麵線, before heading to the Cars@Expo... Actually their braised pork rice 滷肉飯 is also very good too, with lots of oil-onion 油蔥 fragrance...


Ordered the passion fruit drink with pearls at an add-on price of $2.00 ... Beeper for food to be ready...


I ordered the Crispy(?) Chicken Strip Mee Sua ($6.80), and also the Fried Chicken Strip with Salt and Pepper ($5.00)...


Mee Sua is not soggy, still retains a slight bounce, but very slight... the thick soup base is good, has good balance of savoury and sweet (lots of help from the carrots and other vegetables, I think), with a tinge of sourness from the vinegar and also a bit of the oil-onion 油蔥 fragrance... can also see strips of mushrooms, carrots, red bell pepper and etc... I think the receipt has a typo-error as the chicken strips are not supposed to be "crispy". Instead, they are super tender 嫩 and juicy, with the chicken juice sweetness strongly present when you chew them... Very solid... Suspect they use chicken thigh and not chicken breast meat...


Another solid fried chicken with salt and pepper 鹽酥雞... If I remember correctly, they told us they use chicken thigh for this dish, hence the chicken meat is super tender 嫩 ... But I felt the taste is a bit weird that day, perhaps the pepper is a bit un-fresh... Still overall a very solid side dish... Will go back again, this time for the braised pork rice 滷肉飯 ...
