Wonderful Chinese Restaurant 旺德福中餐馆

It’s been a while since I last had some authentic Northeastern (dongbei) Chinese food and I’m kind of craving for it. I happened to pass by Wonderful Chinese Restaurant 旺德福中餐馆 and decided to try it with a friend.

Most of the dishes at Wonderful Chinese Restaurant are mainly dongbei (Northeastern Chinese) dishes with some local favorites.

There are three Wonderful Chinese Restaurants in Singapore but the one in Upper Paya Lebar is the only one with a restaurant by itself. The other two are hawker stalls in coffeeshops.

The Food

Wonderful Chinese Restaurant - ChongQing Grilled Fish with Green Pepper

Grilled fish seems to be one of the signatures, so we ordered ChongQing Grilled Fish with Green Pepper 重庆鲜青椒烤鱼[S$35.80]. The fish was deep-fried till really crispy, which is different from other grilled fish I have had.

Grilled fish usually comes with clear broth with lots of accompanying vegetables but this grilled fish was literally laying in a pool of oil. It was so oily that I eventually gave up trying to finish the fish.

Wonderful Chinese Restaurant - Cucumber with Peanuts

Cucumber with Peanuts 拍黄瓜花生米 [S$5.80] really helps to cut through all the greasiness of the grilled fish.

Wonderful Chinese Restaurant - Sauteed Green Pepper and Eggplant

Sautéed Potato, Green Pepper and Eggplant 地三鲜 [S$11.80] is a classic dongbei dish. The eggplants absorbed all the oil while starch from the potato slices gives the dish a nice stickiness.

Wonderful Chinese Restaurant - Stir-Fry Lettuce with Garlic

Stir-Fry Lettuce with Garlic 蒜蓉油麦菜 [S$8.80] is crispy and refreshing but just a tad salty.

Wonderful Chinese Restaurant - Mutton Sticks

No dongbei meal is complete without Mutton Sticks 羊肉串 [S$1.20/stick]. It’s slightly saltier and it’s all lean mutton which tend to make the skewers a little dry.

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...
