\"Ah
\nWho is Ah Hoi? Well, he’s fictional. He signifies a jolly, happy chef who cooks good food to people. And from now to end of August<\/strong>, Ah Hoi’s Kitchen presents a la carte Chinese buffet of 47 items<\/strong> at a reasonable price<\/strong> of $38+ (adult) or $19 (below 12 years old). The great thing about a la carte buffet is that the food is cooked freshly upon ordering. But you must have at least 4 persons<\/strong> to enjoy the buffet.<\/p>\n

\"Ah
\nThe award-winning Chef Lam Loon Tuck<\/strong> runs the kitchen and some of his specialties, such as the Sri Lankan Chili Crab<\/strong>, are on the buffet menu. The crabs, one serving only, had a fantastic sauce and very awesome deep-fried buns.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Ah
\nBecause there are 47 items on the buffet, we couldn’t eat all of them, so we’re only listing the highlights. For appetizers<\/strong>, The spicy ikan bilis salad<\/strong> (pictured above) was unique. The ikan bilis and onion were stir-fried in a sweet and spicy chili, and they sat on slices of potato. The braised fish maw with crabmeat soup<\/strong> (one bowl per customer) was loaded with ingredients but there was just something missing. Sharks’ fin, maybe?<\/p>\n

\"Ah
\nFor meat<\/strong>, the honey glazed chicken<\/strong> is another specialty of Chef Lam. The chicken was cooked so that it was crispy outside, with a smoky tinge, and the ginger was very palatable and sweet. The steamed fish fillet in teochew style<\/strong> did not fare as well to us as we prefer it in an entire fish, instead of dory fillet. But tastewise, it was pitch perfect. There are other standard cze-char fare, such as fish curry<\/strong>, sambal squid<\/strong>, sweet & sour pork<\/strong>, and sliced beef in back pepper sauce<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"Ah
\nFor fibre<\/strong>, the braised bean curd with crab meat sauce <\/strong>had deep-fried tofu which skin had this delicious lardy flavor. The braised jade abalone with spinach<\/strong> (one serving only) was a must-eat but Chiobu thought the veg was a tad salty so you may want to order rice with it.<\/p>\n

\"Ah
\nFor carbs<\/strong>, well, there are a few options but people don’t usually order carbs dishes in buffets. Instead of ordering from the buffet menu, we got the specialty, black pepper fried kway tiao with seafood<\/strong> ($15) from their standard menu. The kway tiao was fantastic, it had that elusive wok hei. <\/em><\/p>\n

For a sweet ending, there are 7 desserts<\/strong>, including gui ling gao<\/strong>, mango sago<\/strong>, etc, on the buffet menu.<\/p>\n

The excellent service<\/strong> was the icing on the delicious food. Overall, we had a wonderful time and all the food was above average.<\/p>\n
