Everytime when I passed by this open concept restaurant in Bugis Junction basement, the kaypoh side of me will stretch my kaypoh neck to see what the diners are eating. The food looked good.. Gyozas in soup. So one fine day, my friend and I decided to step in.
I love restaurants that use electronic ordering system.
Super efficient and less errors.
I don't like restaurants that charges for water. Tap
water is drinkable. And Kotsujiru's water at $0.30 is non
refillable.
Kotsujiru Nabe's
specialty is its mochi like gyoza. There are 4 different soups that you can
choose from: Original, Miso, Miso Kimuchi, Tom Yam. I got
the tom yam soup + pork ($20.80). The thinly
sliced pork that were delicious and flavourful. The soup was really spicy and
sour. My friend got the original soup with
pork ($18.80).
The only thing that the gyoza is different from the usual
Chinese soup dumpling is the Mochi-like skin. The skin is thicker and has a
snowy texture that is chewy like mochi. Other than that, the meat is similar to
those in Chinese dumplings.
The set comes with
meat balls which we loved it to the max. Glazed with caramelized sweet soya
sauce, they were really crispy on the outside and tender on the
inside.
Hmmm overall I find it quite
expensive for the quality of food which I think is slightly above average. I
think it's overpriced.

Dessert Station @ Albert Market
The feast continued with Part 2 which is dessert from our
favourite dessert station in Albert Street Market Centre. They have a
killer Cheng Tng which has a generous amount of
longan, dates, sago, barley, ginkgo, white fungus and a lot of other ingredients
in soup that is light and yet well balanced with
sweetness.
My friend loves the sesame
paste which was thick and awesome too. Desserts are around
$1.30. Cheap and good :) We love Chinese desserts and I highly recommend this
one at Albert Market!
