Da Dong Restaurant-Cantonese Dishes

This is the restaurant to look for traditional cantonese dishes. It is really good.

The birth of Da Dong Restaurant in 1928 illuminated Chinatown. It was fondly etched in people’s hearts for its distinguished reception, congenial services: not forgetting their delectable and exquisite traditional Cantonese fare. (For more information, please look at their official website.)

Crispy Roasted Chicken - a signature dish of Da Dong. It is really very tasty and yummy. I loved the crispy skin of the chicken and dip it in the fried salt and pepper (sorry forgot to take a photo of the salt and pepper.)

Da Dong homemade tofu with shredded scallop - this is also another signature dish of Da Dong. The tofu is so good.

Sunny Side Up Egg Agar Agar

made a sunny side up egg . It is not a real egg but made out of agar agar. The egg yolk is actually a half peach and the egg white is made of agar agar. Got this inspiration from a cooking show hosted by Chen Han Wei.

Singapore Chicken Rice Ball

The Chicken Rice Ball dish is a variation of the Hainanese Chicken Rice. Instead of serving the normal chicken rice, they pressed the rice together to form the shape of a ball. The ball can bounced off your plate.Heard so much about this famous chicken rice ball at Toa Payoh, I went to try out the chicken rice ball. After trying, I think I prefer the normal chicken rice than the rice ball....lol
