Have walked past Hao Wei Lai (#01-3687, 165 Bukit Merah Central, tel : +65 9775 8718) numerous times and had never been curious enough to try their food until recently.
Edible fried rice with chicken & whitebait. This one was kinda damp and was devoid of any smokiness. It looked nothing like the pork chop fried rice which many of the neighbouring tables were having. Didn't hate it but will not get it again.
Kinda liked their stir fried shredded pork with dried tofu (豆干) because of the fermented bean flavour in the sauce and the 豆干. A tad more intensity with the fermented bean and salt and this would have slid from decent to awesome.
I enjoyed their broccoli for the simplicity. Just garlic and maybe light soya sauce.
Siew mai didn't leave much impressions. Probably because these weren't as delicate or flavourful as the Cantonese ones we've been used to. Will not be getting them again.
