Qing Feng Yuan Fish Soup

Who says healthy food cannot taste good?

You don't have to give up your taste buds to eat healthily with this blue cod fish soup by Qing Feng Yuan at our Tiong Bahru FC.

The fish meat tends to be flaky due to the thickness it is sliced into but the meat is creamy and tasty. The Teochew-style soup looks plain but it is far from bland. A great comfort food that's easy on the tummy in this cold weather.

The rice, together with their signature rendang meat (chicken, beef, lamb shank and prawn), is wrapped in aromatic leaf called daun lerek and steamed in bamboo poles for 3 hours.

The rendang meat is tender and has a good depth and complexity of flavour. Each plate of the bamboo nas
