Eating at Queen Chow's (haunted) restaurant
Haha , they've combined the pub / bar scene with Chinese restaurant called Queen chows , kind of unusual but ...
Let's check this place out eeeeek Walk in and we are greeted by a goat's head Mounted onto wooden doors , quite dimly lit Walk up the narrow flight of stairs It's kinda creepy :) Half way up we come up to this lopsided giant mirror , hang on is that a reflection of a B..r, nah just my imagination |

Now let's eat !
dim sum master Eric Koh made these dumplings! His prawn/shrimp har gau are luminous, the skins fine and the prawns chunky; his scallop and prawn siu mai are the height of luxury, and his deep-fried ham sui gok , dumbed down as "footballs" on the menu, are glutinously golden and almost green with garlic chives. Good start! |

Ok let get to the good stuff
Black market Angus beef , baby king oyster mushrooms , potato The beef was surprisingly melt-in-your-mouthy even though it looked like it was going to be your stock standard chewy beef cubes. the potato was crisp on the outside and fluffy soft in the middle and I even had to have one or two bits of spring onion because it was coated in such a moreish sauce with hits of black pepper. The rest of us were also fighting for remnants of the king oyster mushroom, definitely wish there were more. Vegetables and mushrooms are such great vessels to carry flavourful sauces. And some greens , gotta have some greens on the side |

The hallmark of a good fried rice in my opinion is for it to still look white in appearance rather than oily and golden while still bearing a good flavour profile.
Some seafood Moreton bay bugs, kombu butter , asparagus , tosaka seaweed Bugs always make me so happy, when they’re of the (regular) eating variety. These were well cooked however the true stand out had to be the sauce, the kombu butter, that was just crazy umami and decadent. |
