Kluang Lim kopitiam ... a lesser known to the Kluang Railway Coffee

Cincin Restaurant 津津酒楼

My family was enroute to buy mooncakes (from a very famous pastry shop) for the Autumn Festival in Kluang, and stopped by this chinese restaurant. My dad tried it before and he commented the food is not bad, so we decided to settle our lunch over here.

From clockwise, we had the

Kungpo diced chicken - Average, and the diced meat is dry. Rating: 5.5/10

Fried vermicelli - Nicely flavoured and springy noodle. Rating: 6.5/10

Stir fried spinach with garlic - Average, not much impression of it. Rating: 5.5/10

Crispy pi-pa duck - One of the recommended dishes. The roasted duck skin is crisp and its meat is tender, but you have to go with the plum sauce, otherwise it could be a tad bland. Rating: 7.0/10

Steamed codfish in light soya sauce - It's fresh and my mum's favourite. Rating: 7.5/10

Specialty beancurd - The beancurd's texture is smooth and although I'm a fan of all tofu dishes, somehow this just does not rock my boat. Rating: 6.0/10
