More fruits

Rock melon from supermarket. Not bad.

Home delivery from Maddie's Kitchen

We ordered in a bunch of stuff we liked from Maddie's Kitchen when we were eating there previously. Like their beef tenderloin black bean sauce hor fun with gravy that was packed separately. This dish survived delivery quite well. As delicious as I remembered it. 

Their Hainanese pork chop rice has the option of having the curry packed separately. Which was ideal if you wanted some crisp to still remain on those tasty pork chops by the time they get delivered to you. Very nice.

Batang soup with additional red garoupa meat.

Spuds and chicken of the sea

Made with ingredients that we had around in the house. A couple of Russets, Ayam Brand tuna, butter, pepper, salt and roughly chopped spring onions. Simply and tasty.

A breakfast of bread, eggs and cheese. And ham.

So good. Bread pan fried in butter so that it was a little toasty and browned, shaven ham, President plastic wrapped sliced cheddar and scrambled eggs. Salt and pepper.

More food from Kok Sen Restaurant

Tried more food from Kok Sen. So that we could get a better sensing of the quality and style of their food.

I miss good mui fan. By good, I meant the kind that I used to eat as a kid. Something with decent to good quality ingredients and without excessive starch in the gravy. The closest I've come to one in recent times was at Hillman Restaurant. I had imagined this one from Kok Sen to be similar. It wasn't. 

What I didn't expect was the rice that they had used. It was fried rice instead of white rice. Like the 福建炒饭 from Tian Tian Seafood. There was more aroma because of that. The portion was huge.

This was their big prawn hor fun. Egg drop gravy with the prawns was packed separately from the hor fun. More than half of the social media food porn from Kok Sen featured this. I was hoping that the flavour justified the hype. It didn't. 

Not for me. The gravy was a little crustacean-y with sweetness from onions and some sort of sambal. Gravy that became watery after a while. It was not bad tasting but I wouldn't get it again. 

Fruits

Red kiwi and apples. Kiwis were a balance of tart and sweet.
