Revisiting Nanjing Impressions (南京大牌檔)

Nanjing Impressions (南京大牌檔), Plaza Singapura

Here's back in Nanjing Impressions because we kinda liked what we had the last time round.

Nanjing Impressions (南京大牌檔), Madam Chiang's Nutritious Beauty Porridge

That's the beauty porridge which we had previously. It was the first thing that arrived just like the last time.

Nanjing Impressions (南京大牌檔), shredded duck fried noodles

We ordered their shredded duck fried noodles. This was pretty good. The noodles were full of bite, sweet and smoky at the same time. I must admit that there was more than a slight reminder of char kuey teow. Albeit one that's much less greasy.

Nanjing Impressions (南京大牌檔), tofu shrimp sauce

The menu has this as tofu in shrimp sauce. It wasn't any particular shrimp sauce that most people from this part of the world would be familiar with. There was something offal-ish/liver-y about it with a sweetness just on the edge, possibly from the shrimp roe. Personally, the flavour was quite a new experience for me.

Nanjing Impressions (南京大牌檔), baby rooster stew fried sesame buns

One of the items that intrigued me was their baby rooster stew with fried sesame buns. It tasted just like regular chicken. Those fried sesame buns weren't as fragrant as I had imagined them to be.
