The "white lor mee", which is their signature dish, was loaded with clams, pork, veggies, prawns, fried bean curd. I find it too bland for my liking even though the vinegar supposed to bring out the flavour of the dish.
The "la la" (clams) was my favourite. Spicy and garlicky, it tasted very much like vongole.
The fried bee hoon was tastier compared to the signature noodles, although nothing to shout about.
The fried prawn balls were deep fried to perfection. Crispy and not too oily with the sweetness of the prawns intact.
While chatting over dinner about 兴化 cuisines, we decided to swing by Pu Tien (莆田） for some desserts.
Z highly recommended The Pumpkin Cream with Ice Cream ($4.80) which was rich and creamy yet not too sweet.
The Sweet Potato Balls($12.00) were great munchers to go along with the Pumpkin dessert. I don't like pumpkin or sweet potato per se but surprisingly, I enjoyed them both.
All thanks to Z's fame, desserts were complimentary. :)
兴化 cuisines appeared to be simple and unpretentious. (Looking at Pu Tien's scrumptious menu, I reckon I've to try them to verify that.) Irregardless, if you like homecooked style food, I'm sure you'll enjoy a hearty meal at Ming Chung Restaurant. They opens from 3 pm till midnite and are closed on Mondays.
