Thai Seng Fish Soup

Never a day without queue. IMHO, the sliced fish is better than the fried fish. And the fried egg is a must add on. Visit at least once every week! Food quality: 5/5 Quantity: 5/5 Taste: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere of the coffee shop: 1/5 (very very hot) the fan + the canvas roof = oven Avoid buying drink from the stall, the altitude is very very poor.

This is probably one of the best fish soup in the East. Perpetual long queue does not put off the regulars of this place and rightly so. The fish slices are fresh and tender, and the soup is generously filled with vegetables as well. The broth is oozing with goodness and I always finish till last drop. Best time to come is around 11am from my experience.

The queue was as "legend" said, already formed when I reached at 10:15am and had to wait for around 25 minutes. I would think 10:30-11:00 is probably the optimal time to visit. Ordered the dual-fishes soup. The sliced fish was indeed the star. It seemed slightly marinated which did not hide its freshness. It was smooth and tender. Comparing its compatibility with the two types of chilli, I would think the sliced fish went better with the chilli sauce. The chilli sauce's bright colour was the obvious hint of its spiciness but not over-bearing. The fried fish had the obvious egg taste and meatier. However, it tasted drier in comparison to the sliced fish. The soup itself was rich yet clear. However, I would think it is not extremely exceptional to warrant the long queue. The fried egg that was part of the soup gave the added dimension of texture despite being soaked in the soup, though I wouldn't think it to be as spectacular as what I read in other reviews. The soup also came with the normal egg to be lightly cooked purely by the hot soup. Overall, I would recommend to order just the sliced fish soup if the queue is short or maybe no longer than 15 minutes.

Go early for lunch as the queue is really long. We ordered the double fish soup bee hoon that comes with both fried fish and sliced fish. You can add on fried egg. I like that the soup comes with many cabbages. The fried fish was ok. The sliced fish was really tender and good and I'd highly recommend getting the sliced fish soup. The chilli sauce was spicy and went well with the dish.
