Yan Ji Seafood Soup 炎记海鲜汤 - Famous Seafood Soup

The first Yan Ji Seafood Soup in Marsiling Mall started operating in the 1980s. 

The emphasis on fresh seafood and consistent quality paid off during the 30 years of history. 

Yan Ji Seafood Soup has since expanded into two more stalls in Broadway Coffeeshop and Far East Plaza. 

Yan Ji Seafood Soup has been featured in The Straits Times, and received “Best Food Awards 2009-2014” from The Green Book. 

Yan Ji Seafood Soup - Stall Front

Hidden deep in Marsiling, Broadway Coffeeshop is not the most easy to find if you don’t live in the area. You have to take a bus from Marsiling MRT station to reach this coffee shop. 

If you are taking the MRT, the stall at Marsiling Mall is probably more accessible. 

Yan Ji Seafood Soup - Menu

There are altogether only 5 options on the menu, so selection should be easy. Most first-timers will probably go for the Crayfish Seafood [S$12/14/16/18], Red Grouper Seafood [S$12/14/16/18] or Seafood Soup [S$6/8/10/12]. 

You can also add on fish maw, pacific clams, venus clams or scallops at S$2 each and abalone or crayfish at S$4 each. Takeaway costs S$0.30 and rice costs S$0.50 per bowl. You can also add thick bee boon for S$0.80. 

Yan Ji Seafood Soup - Premium Seafood Soup

I wanted to get a taste of everything, so I ordered the Premium Seafood Soup [S$30] which gives me two halves of a crayfish, 2 prawns, 2 small abalones, 3 pieces of fish maw, pacific clams, venus clams, two huge scallops and two huge meat patties. 

The seafoods are all very fresh but what impressed me the most is the rich and creamy broth. It is not overly salty with the rich sweetness from the seafoods. You can only top up plain soup as each bowl of seafood soup is individually cooked. 

Yan Ji Seafood Soup has been franchised and renamed OAR Seafood Soup in Old Airport Road Food Centre and another at Alexandra Village Food Centre. I am curious if these franchises maintains the high quality that Yan Ji Seafood Soup is known for.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
