A standard plate of reasonably sized Duck Rice sets you back by about $2.50. The duck is very chewy and goes very well with the slightly sweet and sticky gravy. The rice tastes suspiciously like yam rice, but I couldn't detect any yam pieces in it. Prices are cheap at this stall, with an additional bowl of rice or Kway Chup going for only 30 cents.

$3 gets you a huge bowl of Kway Teow with a generous serving of ingredients (although I would have liked more beef balls - only 1 was given). The soup was light on the flavours, yet strong enough to whet my appetite. Kway Teow was pretty normal. The outstanding parts of this dish were the beef slices and beef balls. The beef slices were sliced just right, slightly chewy and with a natural beef taste, something which is lacking in alot of the Beef Kway Teows nowadays. The beef balls were in the same league. Fibrous and chewy, the juices literally burst out when I bit into it. The beef balls are hand made, which explains the quality and texture. No more lousy machine made supermarket beef balls for me. The other stuff like tendons, liver etc were pretty normal. If you request for beef slices and beef balls only, you get lots of beef coupled with 4 beef balls. Now that's a good deal! Definitely must try out this stall if you are at Amoy. A pity they are closed in the evenings.

After a short wait, the dishes arrived in rapid succession. The Hainanese Chicken was not bad, a little chilled and with no traces of blood, which I feel tastes slightly better than the one I had at Thien Kee. The accompanying chicken rice was not too oily, which I like. The Hotplate Tofu looked a little dull and tasted nothing out of the ordinary. The Fish Hor Fun was pretty good and was quite a size for $5. The gravy wasn't too starchy and the Hor Fun had the fried taste to it. The cereal that came with the Cereal Prawns was good, crispy and crunchy, a little spicy and sweet, not too oily and with a strong cereal taste. The Sweet and Sour Pork, I feel, had too much flour in it and I couldn't really taste the meat. But the rest found it quite nice. Salted Vegetable with Tofu soup is supposed to be salty and at the same time, a little sourish. However, the one we had was just too bland with no bite. The ingredients in it were quite generous though. I don't really fancy sweet potato leaves, hence I gave the dish a miss.
Damage for the whole meal for 8 pax stood at $88.80 inclusive of drinks and everything else, which I feel is a steal. Where else can you find such decent food at such a low price in the heart of town? Give it a try and you won't regret it. However, do make reservations if you are going on weekends. Before you do, be warned. Do not expect fantastic food. Go with lower expectations and you might end up enjoying your dinner.
