Pu Tien Restaurant

Pu Tien was only a minute's walk, down the road from Parkroyal Hotel. Its glow stood out among the other less glamourous restaurants. The staff were quick too... upon showing a second's worth of interest, we were taken to our table. We ordered the $56 set menu for four people and added the deep-fried duck with yam dish, one of my favourites. However, when we saw that the inclusion of napkins, rice, tea, service and GST had boosted the bill up to $90, I was not happy. Anyway, the food was good... so here it is -

Bamboo herbal prawn, steamed seabass, sweet & sour pork with lychee, deep-fried duck with yam, stir-fried kailan with beancurd skin, fried noodles & white fungus with red dates dessert. The bamboo herbal prawn soup was fragrant, sweet and delicious. The deep-fried duck was yummy too, except it wasn't served with the thick mushroom sauce I like. And the fried noodles were simple yet scrumptious. I loved the extra bits of seaweed. Pu Tien Restaurant 127 Kitchener Road Singapore Phone: +65 6295 6358 Web: www.putien.com
