We've had the 酸菜鱼 with sliced fish in soup previously at Riverside Grilled Fish so here's getting the one with the whole fish. Hmmm...to be more accurate, it wasn't exactly the entire fish. The underside of the fish doesn't have any meat. We picked sea bass. Fish was definitely pre-fried because it wasn't even lukewarm when they served and we had to ladle the heated broth over repeatedly just to get it warmed up.
Pretty good savoury sour and a bit of heat going on from the pickled mustard and chillis just like the last time we had it. Those onions that propped the fish up from below were deliciously sweet and crunchy. Just let them cook down before starting on them.
Gripes? The cost does add up if you start topping up with the sides. With just squid balls and frozen tofu (冻豆腐), this was starting to look pricey for a half fish dish.
Scallion oil noodles (葱油面) was pretty tasty. I was hoping that there would be more actual scallions though but I'm not complaining.
