In Hai Di Lao, what you really eat is their service, they offer express manicure and snacks before the real thing starts. What is the worst thing is that, because they have these service, please be expected that you really need to WAIT if you didn't make any reservation. They are so damn packed with humans, eating the snacks, once the lift reached their level.


Since it is steamboat, of course it is sabu sabu meat slices, and it's really nice ! You can feel the freshness of the meat. Nommieeeee~ And others are also good. Liking the tomato soup base, cause it gives this refreshing taste and not so oily even after cooking the meat.





Order the noodle, if you want some performance. All their fish paste will be well-scooped and cooked for you ! So it is the service they are selling, and of course the food. The ambiance is pretty atas and huge spaces between tables !

Hello nommies, we are back in eating FOOD ! YAY ! To be real frank, I'm having food tasting every now and then, because it is my job. LOL !

This is not a sponsored post, but it is a father's day celebration post, ya somewhere in May'15. Let's nom !



The Beauty in the pot at OneKM is owned by Paradise Dynasty, and obviously it is atas. Definitely not cheap, but the food (especially the seafood) is real good. Although it is at OneKM, but reservation is kinda a must, otherwise you need to wait for quite some time !

Like other most a la carte steamboat, ordering is through Ipad. Usually, we don't order a lot, and if it is not enough, then re-order it !











 Overall review:



After the meal, there is mocktail for us and it taste refreshing as it is ice blended! The service is pretty alright, as each staff has their designated table to be in-charged. They serve food really fast, just that we have to ask for the mocktail for quite a number of time, which is pretty disappointed. Otherwise, everything is pretty up to standard.

Food	Aesthetic	Price	Service	Overall
9/10	9.5/10	5.5/10	8.5/10	9/10

Everything, I mean those I ordered, are like simply delicious. And I just realise my pictures are so blur, hahahahs. Its the food that counts right?

This wu xiang, is full of meat ! I don't really like eating it but this I love it ! The meat is way toooo soft even its crispy on the outside *love*

P.S/ so sorry for a weird blur picture, but my parents have no patient for me to take picture~ hahahs


Next ! Will be my our all times favourite, the sweet-and-sour pork ! Okay, so sorry for those who are halal buttt~ this is my favourite dish !! On top of that, you know in some places, the flour will be like 80% while the meat is only 20%. For this, it's like 80% meat and 20% flour, which is so much satisfying !


And lastly, of course, the white bee hoon itself, and being a proud xinhua people (its a dialect), the noodles is a xinhua noodles, which is much thinner and more Q, hahash. Also, have to praise the gravy/soup of the noodles as its chicken soup which is so much more flavourful !


However, the queue is always non-stop, like literally. It's opposite sembawang shopping center, quite ulu place BUT still long queue. I guess singaporeans are all foodies !


I will high recommend this ! It's quite affordable, like zhi-cha pricing and good food ! Also, if you are there, try their ai-yu drink, its real nice for this hot summer singapore weather !

To be real freak, I feel that the KL xin kin chilli pan mee, isn't really very nice. I mean it's quite okay, a little better than the coffee shop noodles, but it isn't really there.

Okay, firstly, the noodles, the noodles are for people who love those hard noodles, I mean I love those wobbly soft noodles, but that is quite alright, and it don't really feel that QQ taste. But what's nice is the chili (like duh) and the meat. Because their meat have the seasoning which makes the whole dish more flavorful, and the chili also bring out the meat taste. So maybe thumb up for the meat and chili !


Next would be their fish ball noodles ! The fish balls are real huge, and when I taking picture, my supervisor said with her finger will show how huge the fish ball is ! It's really big, and it is quite QQ, taste like fish paste instead ! So really worth it to buy the soup. It's just the fish ball, don't think the soup is super nice, it isn't~ It just like normal veg soup?


Overall, I would rate it a 3.5/5, as it do have it yummy pointers, but in all, isn't really super great, except u love hard noodles, like my sister. Then you could check it out !

IT'S GST AND SERVICE CHARGE FREEEEEE !!!! NO, THIS IS NOT COFFEE SHOP NOR HAWKER CENTER, even hawker center also have GST charges included. THIS IS A GRAND CHINESE RESTAURANT ! Can you see your pocket being a little fatter while eating more?!

I really love the setting inside the restaurant, even it's a little plan, but those big lantern lights just makes you feel comfortable, together with the mini small picture frames of their dishes.



So, we are the white rats to make sure that it's worth it or not to visit Wan He Lou, I will not lie on anything regarding food ! Having the honor to taste the 5 course CNY Set Meal, which will launch on 1.1.2014, and some of their famous a la carte items

5 Course CNY Set Meal ($88.00 for 2 Pax)


 Braised Yee Fu noodles with Lobster

A simply yet flavorful dish to fill your stomach up. The noodles are first cooked and having the gravy over it, the noodles absorb the the sweetness of the vegetable taste (more of the xiao bai cai) and lesser of the mushroom taste. Personally, I feel this dish would be more suitable of people who like more bland taste, which this dish carry out very well. Also, the lobster is considered as the small lobster, which has much more of the freshness taste instead of having more tasteless meat taste.

*Note: The lobster should be taken out, so it won't be overcook by the heat of the noodles. Otherwise the meat will be much stiff, instead of chewy*


Dessert:
Sweetie-bites; for Chinese restaurants usually there will be dessert as a last dish, even in western there's also dessert, but what's unusual is that.... THEY HAVING WESTERN DESSER O.O ! Making me sooooo tempted to retry my macaroon and even ask the boss if they have the recipe to send me. LOL. Okay, back to topic, their dessert is chocolate ice creammmmm, macaroons and jellies which consists of nada-de-coco too !  



Since it's a 5 course CNY meal set, of course there is two more, however Wan He Lou only prepare food with fresh ingredients with make us unable to try two dishes, but you can try them after 1.1.14 ! 

There are the:

• Abalone "Lo Hei" Yu Sheng  (It's of course a MUST to have yu sheng )
• Green Dragon Vegetable 

Not to be missed Ala Carte Items:

If you know Wan He Lou, You would know their Signature Lobster Porridge, there is more than one lobster swimming inside the Lobster Porridge, and as mention that Wan He Lou is a Cantonese restaurant which means that their porridge is the rice + soup, and not congee. 

Personally, I love congee, but I think that porridge also have their tasty side. Like this lobster porridge, where the rice could absorb the sweetness of the pumpkin soup, also the pumpkin soup isn't too thick of the pumpkin taste, it's more like suitable for the whole family, where the taste of even out and not mid nor robust.

Also, to prevent overcooked lobster, be sure to take it out from the soup first !



2. Pan Fried Kurobuta Pork:

This is my favorite dish ! The Pan Fried Kurobuta Pork is different from the usual pork you eat in the supermarket or other places. This meat is soooo much tender and with every bite, you can feel the layering texture of the meat. Together with the strong tasting gravy that allow you to feel both the strong, salty and thick gravy sauce with the tender and soft meat. Sounds like a perfect match uh ! Oh, the meat is still soft and tender, with a little crispy at the side of the meat, as it's pan fried !

Next stop, it's the starter ! Wa, THIS IS MY FAVORITE AMONG THE BEST ! I forget what is the real name, BUT it's a full prawn wrapped in the thin layer of wanton skin ! And the sauce is like.... Very nice. I should do a video of my expression at the spot la ! I mean, I kinda forget how it taste but is a must try ! hahahs !


The most simple wanton noodle.

The soup is really refreshing and the noodles is really QQ ! :} I only tasted one mouth, but this shot looks nice ! hahas

Fried Rice with Shrimps and eggs

 An extremely popular dish, the ingredients are pared down to simple rice, shrimps, eggs, and spring onions, creating a taste of familiar comfort. Each plate is of a certain weight and minimal seasoning is used so that the natural fragrance of the eggs and spring onions shines through.
