Late Friday Night Dinner at Kok Sen

Last Friday evening, wifey felt like having prawn noodles for dinner.

So after our bath, we decided to try Kok Sen at Keong Saik Street. It has been a while since we go out for a late dinner.

We do not know the exact location of the famous eatery but I reckon it should not be too difficult to find because the street is only that small.

So we left the house about 7+ and took a bus down.

 

I have always wanted to try Kok Sen ever since I read about it in “ieatishootipost” a couple of months back but was put off by the thought of having to wait a long time for a table or food to arrive as described by those who have been there before.

This time though, since its late already I was hoping the crowd will be lesser and we are not THAT hungry, so can afford to wait a bit.

 

We reached Keong Saik and found the coffeeshop in about 5 mins, just by the main road.

It was still rather crowded but we managed to get seated immediately. When we ordered, their famous Yong Tau Foo and bittergourd with pork ribs were sold out, so we ordered the Big Prawn Bee Hoon Soup ($16)

big prawn Hor Fun ($16)

and a plate of fermented beancurd lettuce ($9).

We nearly forgo our orders because we thought the staff who took down our dishes did not do so. It was quite disorganised as there were lots of customers.

 Portion was quite alright and taste of the food were robust as reviewed. Wifey likes the bee hoon soup as it was spicy and flavourful… however the more we eat , the more we found the food very salty.

Maybe next time when we try again, we will order “lighter” food like the tofu and pork ribs that the uncle and auntie opposite us ordered. But I still hoped to try their famous claypot YTF.

*by the way the banana tree café that we wanted to try is just 2 units away ;o) . Next time!
