So......Cai Ji Fried Fish Soup (#01-10 Chong Boon Market & Food Centre, 453A Ang Mo Kio Ave 10, tel : +65 9660 9020). Been hearing a bit about them lately so here we were.

Inevitable that comparisons will be made to 453 Fish Soup because we've just had it while waiting. This was also delicious. We ordered the 2 in 1 bowl with both batang and red grouper slices which also came with minced pork. The flavour in the background was garlicky from the bits of fried garlic they added instead of ti poh like 453 Fish Soup. There's discernible sweetness from the vegetables as well and I thought this one was a bit more savoury.

So that's $9 for the soup, $2 for the additional milt and $4 for the fried fish roe. Portions were pretty generous.

Hell yeah they were generous with the fried fish roe as well. Milt's a bit more well done then 453 Fish Soup but it's equally delicious.
