Food Review: Ocean Curry Fish Head x Kim Keat Hokkien Mee

12:55:00


Ocean Curry Fish Head, establishment in year 1983,
it has remained as one of the most voted restaurants in Singapore. They take pride in the quality of the food and only use authentic Peranakan ingredients and cooking styles to maintain the taste which has been known for decades. They have earned many positives press reviews and being the number one choice among celebrities and ministers. The endless support got from the customers allows them fast expansion to a bigger restaurant and also setting up a new branch outlet in Telok Ayer Street. With that, they strive to maintain the consistency and quality on both restaurant outlets and continue to serve the customers better in the years to come.



 Curry Fish Head - $38

The fish head was huge. It tasted very fresh with not a bit of fishy taste detected. The taste of Curry was a bit too sourish with a rather mild level of spiciness based on a Nonya recipe. The Fish Head was cooked in the Curry to absorb the flavor as compared to some of those that steamed the Fish Head first then added in the Curry later.

Taste: 2.5/5

 Braised Pork Belly - $6

The pork belly was well braised. The meat was very soft and tender, the skin was like jelly texture. 

Taste: 2.75/5

 Long Bean - $6

The long bean was crunchy but it was quite tasteless. 

Taste: 1/5

 Fried omelette with long bean - $6

The egg was very cold and it was just average.

Taste: 0.25/5


Food: 2/5
Ambiance: N.A
Service: N.A

Overall, it was like "Cai Fan" style, the side dishes order from the display counter and curry fish head order from them. The food was decent but it worth a try.

Claypot Hokkien Mee with sio bak. Kim Keat is about a 10 to 15 minute walk from Bradell MRT, in the same kopitiam as Ocean Curry Fish Head. 
Claypot Hokkien Mee - $15

Cooking good Hokkien Mee requires great skills and time. We thought that the noodles and sauce could have been better ‘fused’ together as one. But the Hokkien Mee was below our expectation, but certainly one worth trying. The sambal chilli was very good, must combine the sambal chilli with the noodle!!

Taste: 2/5
