Por Kee for Anniversary Dinner
I took these pictures of our dinner at Por Kee to celebrate our wedding anniversary but forgotten all about it. I like the food at Por Kee, being traditional cantonese cuisine and at reasonable prices. I had wanted to book a nice place, like Grand Shanghai but in the end, we chose a no ambience place for economy and great taste.
As usual, our dishes are quite predictable. Cereal fried prawns, crabs, chicken wings. Guess the whole family including Tobey shares the same liking for food and seafood especially. Tobey just loves prawns and crabs so much that we have to stop him from eating too much of it. But I am glad he is not a fussy eater. He enjoys food of different cuisines just like us! I guess since he was young, he has been expose to all kinds of food and how he is expected to finish all his food to the last grain...even at times if his dinner lasts 1 hour, he was not allowed to leave his table untill he finished.
At Por Kee, we also tried their signature pork ribs. But we ordered the wrong kind. We had wanted the strip version which is much tastier. The crabs were quite a let down. We still prefer the ones at Ban Leong (Upper Thomson Road), which is another of our favourite eating place. But the prawns were shiok. On a side note, Por Kee being in Tiong Bahru, is a special place to me because I spent about 6 years growing up in this neighbourhood. Long before time, there were no such thing as neighbourhood shopping malls and we usually bought our clothes and necessities from the Tiong Bahru market. Reminds me of those childhood days...the whole neighbourhood still retains its nostalgic flavour.
