Why the fuck would u pay top dollars for a pomfret that has been wrapped in cling wrap for three hours?no wonder the boss drives a bentley and goes to work at 3pm.

By the way white plate and cling wrap is the lazy man way of steaming fish,its how chao ah tiong and hong kees steam your fish in restaurant and hotel,watch bitch of china documentary,real chinese steam fish in rattan bamboo,steaming rock pebbles and add a touch of jiangsu white wine.

Thanks to PAP, you get to curse PAP while eating good food in restaurants and buffets. In most other farked up countries, people curse their own governments while having to go hungry and without clean water.

Pomfret looks great....black or white pomfret....and how much was it?

Neither black nor white. This is what we call "Dao Chew" fish not the normal white pomfret. dao-chew is normally thicker and greyish colour some people call it deep sea pomfret. Teochew likes it steam with plum and ginger like this.

This meal costs $85. Not so expensive anyway its coffeeshop.

$85 for the meal is shocking! No wonder the boss drives a luxury car. Not very smart fella either. Expect the IRA to come knocking on his door soon.

This is a very popular stall. By lunch time people will be standing beside your table waiting for you to finish. They do not steam the fish with cling wrap. They prepare the fish and the wrap it quickly prevent flies. When they want to steam they remove the wrap. They do not wrap it for 3 hours probably just a few minutes as the fish "fly" out one by one quickly.

We saw the boss coming at about 1pm la and by the way its a Rolls Royce not a Bentley.

Since when I curse PAP while having this meal or posting here? Care to share?

I have no idea of the breakdown. Was told $85 total just pay the money and off I went. That was a very good meal, value for money for a big fish like that. You should try it. I'll be back there very soon.

Not you bro. Referring to typical opposition supporters in general. Thanks for the recommendation to that good food stall. Will try the food when I pass by.

I was eating with some colleagues who were complaining very bitterly about PAP. Lots of complaints from all over. I not very keen to get involved with such politics over lunch. So I just told him that thanks to PAP, you get to complain about PAP while eating very good food. Pinoys or Africans curse their corrupt governments while having to skip meals or boil muddy water to drink. Or have to endure power shortage.

After that, he diam diam.
