Seafood at Kuchai Lama

Seafood is my favourite! OK, let's go to try this ... yum yum.

Fresh from the rivers

Tangy dish: Another popular dish at the restaurant is the Sauteed Lady Finger and Shrimps with Assam Sauce.

"The pork knuckle is first braised so that the meat absorbs the flavours. After the meat is cooled, it is then deep-fried," said Tan.

Wong said another must-try at the restaurant was the mantis prawns, which is fried with either salted egg yolk or "chiu yim" style (with salt and pepper).

Those who prefer greens could try the Sauteed Vegetables with Hawaii Nut, which has a nice sweet crunch to it, owing to the fried macadamia nuts in the dish.

Besides the a la carte menu, the restaurant also serves dim sum during lunch hour.

For August and September, UOB credit card holders dining at the outlet with a minimum of four people would get a complimentary pork knuckle dish with orders from the a la carte menu.
