In usual circumstances, i am not that motivated to have my meal at Sembawang Hills Food Centre since the famous Causuarina Curry is just a short distance away. However, i didn't have a choice last Sunday as dad needed to eat vegetarian and the prata place didn't have any available vegetarian set.
I was almost tempted to get a simple toast for my father when i noticed a stall offering homemade chwee kueh! If memory serves me well, i remember chwee kueh (or shui kway as the stall prefers to call it) is a vegetarian dish made of flour and preserved radish.
Even though i don't crave much for chwee kueh, the ones in Chong Pang are Alex's favourite and i would steal a bite or two whenever he asks me to buy a pack of 8 pieces for his breakfast. To me, i always feel that the sweetened preserved radish played a darn important role.
Hence, i was thinking of doing the same with my dad's breakfast; just one bite to determine if the food is good, especially when it has the tagline "homemade" on the signboard and there's a decent queue when i was there.
Sadly, it was a disappointment. The texture of the steamed flour pudding was not bouncy and soft and the chai po (preserved radish), with its miraculous ability to super enhance the palatability, failed to impress with its bland taste and lack of crunchiness. Guess i must make a mental note never to bring Alex here.
