This old corner coffeeshop house the Cheng Mun Chee Kee Pig Organ Soup "King" with tables in the surrounding corridor. They have also taken over the shop next door to provide air-conditioned seating.
I was first introduced to this place by a good friend some 10 years back. Since then I have brought friends and family to try their delicious Pig Organ Soup. It was no exception yesterday. We had a very enjoyable and filling dinner.
The soup is tasty without being too salty. The ingredients which includes meat ball, pig intestine, liver and stomach, salted vegetable and plain tauhu is soft and tender and cooked just right. The chilli sauce dip also goes very well with the dish, not too spicy but still had bite.
One of my favourite side dishes is the Pig Trotters stewed with ginger and black vinegar. Normally this dish is eaten during the confinement period after childbirth. However, it is now quite readily available in many eateries. The dish here is not too bad although I would have liked the gravy to be thicker and the taste of ginger to be stronger. Nevertheless, the meat is tender and vinegar is not too sour.
Another of my favourite side dishes is the steamed chestnuts sprinkled with pork floss. The small chestnuts are steamed to perfection, soft and sweet, and tends to melt in the mouth. My son's favourite too.
We truly enjoyed the dinner and it was well worth the trip.
