Friday Dinner@ManHill Restaurant

This turns out to be a very good alternate option because the bistro one zero three didn't have any free tables when we walked in. It was fully reserved as well when we call in during afternoon. Anyway, this manhill restaurant looked like any typical chinese tse char stall. It is along Pasir Panjang Road, after labrodor park, coming from Sentosa.

The bright neon sign was quite hard to miss. Their specialities are claypot so one section of the menu was claypot dishes. We decided on claypot chicken, claypot fishhead and a vege dish. But the so called famous fishhead ran out, so we settle for the 排骨王.

Didn't take any pictures ... not in the mood :(

But the chicken was good. The name for it was 远近驰名 砂煲云英鸡 !!! Sounds like something you need to eat before some pugilistic marital art meet aka 武林大会. It was actually kinda of roasted chicken in thick broth with several other ingredients. Chicken was tender and the skin savoury. The broth was light yellow and thick, just goes so well with rice.

The 排骨王 turns out to be real good too. Very tender, slight crisp and the sauce on it ..... 好吃 !
It was over in 1/2 an hour. Then we were just resting after meal, then the table behind us order another claypot dish, the fragrance when the cover was open ... 太香了 !!!! It was actually 砂煲猪肝.

This definitely will be in our choices for dinner locations ! :)
