Tsinoy Foodies Verdict

Last week, the family checked out the Symphony of Lights at Ayala Triangle.  There was a BIG crowd and I guess that wore us out and got us hungry.  We decided to revisit Wee Nam Kee. 

Food
As expected, there are new dishes to try! 

Claypot Chicken Rice

The Claypot Chicken Rice is my new found favorite Wee Nam Kee.  As the name implies, it is a rice topping served in an earthenware.  It has slices of chicken, Chinese chorizo, black mushrooms, onion leeks and ginger in oyster sauce. 

Beef Rendang

The National dish of Indonesia Beef Rendang is another favorite of mine.  This has the right blend of spices, coconut milk and tomato sauce to whet your appetite.  And, the beef is so tender that the tendons melts in your mouth.

Bak Kuh Teh'

The hearty and sumptous Bak Kuh Teh' is filled with a generous portion of pork ribs, black mushrooms, tofu, garlic, herbs and spices.  This is so comforting as if you're looking for something to warm up your tummy.

Singaporean Beef

The Singaporean Beef is a must try if you want to skip rice for noodles.  It's so savory.  The meat is so soft that it complements the noodles well.

It's a great idea that Wee Nam Kee has introduced dishes that recognizes the united flavors of Singapore.   With consistently great-tasting dishes, another visit in the future is expected!

If there's something I'm not proud of... that would be my laziness.  Yes!  There are many times in a week that I don't feel like preparing for my meal or cleaning up my mess after.  And, there are days when I can't afford to be lazy so I resort to my cheap eats favorites.  One of them is Hainanese Delights. 

Before Hainanese Delights came, I've always classified Hainanese Chicken as a luxurious and expensive dish.  But, now I can have it as often as I want.

Food
Each table has the usual sauces.

Complimentary Soup

Each order will entitle you to their complimentary hainanese chicken broth with lots of salt and MSG soup.  For the price, you really can't complain.

♥ Hainanese Delights Whole (350 php)

I only order 1 item on the menu each time and that is the Hainanese Delights.  If you order the whole, you have to order the rice separately.

If you order the meals, it automatically comes with two cups of their justifiably tasty (or salty) chicken or hainan rice.  The rice is unlimited so you can get a refill if you want more.

♥ Hainanese Delights (135 php)

If you order for take-out you'll be missing the unlimited hainan rice perk but if you're not a carbo-loader like me, two cups of rice is enough right?
 
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Hainanese Delights is one of the few places that offers hainanese chicken that fits the budget.  In fact, I've yet to encounter one that bits its market penetrating pricing scheme. It's so affordable I bet everyone has considered trying or has tried it.

 One of our family favorite Singaporean restaurant is Boon Tong Kee. 

For a Singaporean franchise, I don't know why it's not drawing any crowd like its competitors.  Their dishes are consistently good. 

Food

♥ Signature Boil Chicken Whole (845 php)

The Signature Boil Chicken is what most know as the Hainanese Chicken. You can simply judge just from its appearance that it so tasty, soft, moist and tender.
 

It comes with chicken rice.

♥ Coffee Spare Ribs (295 php)

The Coffee Spare Ribs with thick, rich and bitter-sweet sauce is another item that we usually order.  The coating is a bit crunchy and the spare rib meat is very tender.  This is so good when paired with rice.
 

♥ Poached Chinese Spinach with Assorted Egg (295 php)

The Poached Chinese Spinach with Assorted Egg is one of the best vegetable dishes I've ever encountered.  It sounds and looks simple but I bet cooking this has a secret technique somehow.

♥ Crispy Tofu (185 php)

The Crispy Tofu is consistently beautifully cooked.  The fried skin is so thin and delicate.  The tofu inside is smooth and top-notch too.  It really goes well with their wasabi sauce.



Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Boon Tong Kee is and will always be our default Singaporean stop whenever in SM Mall of Asia.  For the authenticity and quality they offer, the price is really affordable.

Way back in high school, my classmates and I would sneakily eat behind the teacher's back just for fun.  We Tsinoys call that "Taw Cha".  We would take turns bringing snacks and share it with the group.  One day, my classmate brought Kopi Roti which was entirely new for me.  

I asked where he bought it and brought home some for the family as a surprise.  They loved it too and since then we've been loyal customers.

Set

♥ Set E: 1 pc. Kopi Bun with Coffee (or tea) (105 php)

When dining in, our usual order is Set E: 1 pc. Kopi Bun with Coffee (or tea).  Kopi Roti's Coffee is pretty good for such an affordable price.

♥ Kopi Bun (50 php)

But,our favorite is really their Kopi Bun.  Just its coffee and butter aroma can wake me up from a drowsy state.  When I was in high school, this was only 30 php.  Naturally, it's been price has increased like the rest of the commodities.

♥ Kopi Bun (50 php)

The Kopi Bun has a thin flavorful crispy coffee crust with followed by its  soft and fluffy dough with warm butter in the middle.  Whenever we spot a Kopi Roti branch, we'd buy some of this for take home.  They have a nice packaging for 6 pieces with matching paper bag.  We enjoy eating this for breakfast or merienda.  It's easy to reheat.  We just use the electric oven toaster.

Kaya Puff (25 php)

It's our first time to try the Kaya Puff which was smaller in size and topped with powdered sugar.

Kaya Puff (25 php)

It was not as crisp as the Kopi Bun.  Instead of butter, it had the Kaya spread.  It was pale in comparison to our all-time favorite Kopi Bun.

Soft Boiled Eggs (35 php)

They also offer the Soft Boiled Eggs  which was prepared the Singaporean way.  It has 2 soft boiled eggs mixed with black soy sauce and sprinkled with white pepper.  I'm not a big fan of this style since I love my eggs plain as I appreciate the egg yolk flavor but some prefer eating eggs this way.  If you haven't tried this, you should try it out for yourself.


Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Over the years, we've tried coffee buns from local bakeshops and international franchises but nothing even comes close to Kopi Roti!  It is still our favorite Kopi Buns and I think it's pretty tough to beat.
